Chet Holmgren is such a soft player. He took 2 shots the whole game. 2! OKC may have to consider moving either him or Jalen Williams. Those two are not reliable.

Epic no show from Chet. That?s an all time stinker. He looked shook. Not good. There?s gonna be a lot of questions there. The tax bill is coming due for OKC. Just saying. Jdub not even available. Geeze

The Knicks at least have KAT to draw Wemby out. I think the Spurs guards are going to make things hard on Brunson tho.

Its official, this will be the 8th straight season with a new NBA champion.

8 seasons, 8 different winners.

The only two teams to even MAKE more than 1 finals this decade are the Celtics and the Heat. From 2020-2026 12 different teams made the NBA finals in 14 slots.

Season is a good reminder how freaking hard it is to repeat. 

Everything has to go right.  Then, everything has to go right again.  That?s really really rare.

I don?t hate either team but I?m on board with not wanting Wemby?s championships to start this early in his career. I don?t really hate the Knicks either but will root for whoever takes the game tonight.

Let's see how healthy he can be as a freakishly tall player. Usually they don't last well. Thankfully, he's the West's problem anyway and there are bunch of competitors in the West.

Boston needs to get better to take the East back from New York. And Indy is right there with those two once Hali returns.

Exactly what Adam Silver wants. All the cap rules and restrictions have given him his parity he so craves.

Wemby refuses to post up. Makes no sense.

This is why I don't like him. Too much perimeter stuff. Not enough big man stuff.

Even his perimeter stuff is not big man stuff. Not typical high post big man play. It is more like a forward or a guard. Like a Durant. Not a Jokic. Wemby wants to dribble and do step backs, crossovers. Be a big man!

We're all old and we remember how bigs used to play, but these are the players kids these days grew up watching and wanting to emulate. So they play him as a big defensively and as a wing and a screener that pops offensively.

Also, it might be that they want to preserve his health and not have him banging in there until he's filled out a bit more. He's still kind of stringy.

Seeing a young team do that, on the road, in a Game 7 was impressive as heck.

We get that ?99 Finals rematch and imagine it will play out the same way.
