Holmgren has a pretty sweet haircut.

Fool looks like a damn 7ft white velociraptor.

And fuck OKC. Any team that ever had KD, Westbrook, or Harden playing on it...much less simultaneously...can suck my dick.

Go Spurs, Fox, and Wemby.

[Gambler]

how worthless is holmgren that caruso has to guard wemby the entire 2nd half?

thunder don't match up defensively with the spurs very well.

I don't know why they they didn't post Wemby down low when Caruso was guarding him. He was around the 3 point line setting picks. He did have a decent night.

Malvert no like Wemby. Wemby make Malvert pee red.

Big guys aren't supposed to have Wemby's body control.  They're supposed to be awkward away from the post, not showing off moves like a shooting guard.  He needs to be donated to science, preferably before the next game.

All the commentator talk last night about Wemby being on the floor for so much of the game, going to wear out, etc etc etc... and it was the Thunder that ran out of gas in 2OT.

age of the spurs starting five last night: 25,24,22,21,20. the two with the most minutes off the bench: 26,20. there are college teams older than that.

When Wemby was drafted then Flagg went to Dallas I thought how boned the Grizzlies are for the next decade.  Not good for me.

Wemby looks like another species out there.  He is so tall and so mobile, it just doesn't register.  He looks a head taller than 7 footers and he moves like a 6 footer.

It's truly insane when you stop and realize that is a 7'4" man moving like that.

Wemby is the cheat code

[Spiderham]

Damn, Castle!  That guy has a family.  What a dunk!

If you're a basketball fan you owe it to yourself to catch a game in OKC. Take earplugs, "Loud City" is well-earned.

I think the Thunder got into the Spurs' legs tonight.

[HogOfWar]

The Spurs should lose for having the Whorns perform at half time just on principle.

JWill doing work with a 4-point play

[buff2.0]

They're in the Spurs' legs now. At one point had SGA plus four bench players on the court and managed to hold the double digit lead. Spurs are one generationally-great game from Wemby from being down 3-0.

[Barton Fink]

I can't unsee it.

Knicks completely dominated the Eastern Conference playoffs.

I get that the competition wasn't necessarily the fiercest ever but it was almost clinical.

Lot of people feel like the SA/OKC winner just cake walks to the title but I don't think so.

[Barton Fink]

Wemby will be a tough matchup for the Knicks. Castle and Vassell are pretty good defensive guards. They will make it tough in Brunson.

Yes, I'm expecting SA to win against OKC.

[mr.zorak]

The Knicks are playing with incredible confidence right now.  The Finals will be entertaining.

[Barton Fink]

Having the finals in MSG alone will be entertaining.

[DrMongoose]

I wish the Knicks no ill will but
- how the cavs make a conference final? Is a sweep over them impressive?
- where did all these knicks fans appear from?
- the layoff before the finals will not be good be for them while sa/OKC will keep rolling.
- all the hype will mean it will be a 0-4 sweep
- to think the mavs had Brunson and Luka
- knicks in the finals will likely be very good for ratings
