@JonesOnTheNBA Doesn’t have any legs

Wemby been trying to put the ball on the floor too much so far.

@royceyoung Indeed his ability to not be called for a foul every time down the floor while holding, grabbing, mauling Wemby is indeed badass

Isaiah Hartenstein: Certified badass.

@AndrewDBailey @bansky @isojay914 The 2013 Seattle Seahawks

@bansky @isojay914 It’s wild. Not sure I remember another team that fully embraced this identity.

Stuff like this is an integral part of OKC’s identity.

@AndrewKSchlecht Indeed if the refs allow him to just hold, push, grab, clench, and foul Wemby on every play he can play against him

Turns out you can play Hartenstein against Wemby

@JonesOnTheNBA Contained aka fouled on every play on both sides of the ball by Hartenstein

With Wemby being contained by OKC, Spurs are lucky to only be down 11

@WorldWideWob Imagine if the refs weren’t fucking terrible and they didn’t have to blow their challenges on obvious plays

Two of the highest leverage challenges possible in a game (subtracting a Wemby personal foul + taking points off the board) result in two challenge victories for San Antonio.

@KevinOConnor Considering he’s holding and grabbing him on every play on both sides and the refs are letting him, it’s definitely the right call

Such a dramatic difference from Game 1. OKC just looked tiny with Caruso/JDub defending Wemby the whole game. Thought they might try Chet on Wemby more. Hartenstein looking like the right call so far.

@royceyoung Care to discuss how dirty Hartenstein is playing?

I mean, this is just the absolute highest of levels of basketball you’re ever gonna find.

@kirkgoldsberry Some of his passes are baffling. Just make the easy read

9 Spurs turnovers in 17 minutes. Fueling 14 OKC points. Castle has 5 already. Woof.

@BaruthaAlex Is Wemby not on this list bc he didn’t measure at the combine?

Aday Mara's combine vs. every player since Rudy Gobert to measure with a standing reach of 9'6" or above

@NoTechBen This team should be so likeable and they make it absolutely impossible to like them

Absolute loser behavior by Daigneault

@jeskeets @BilgeEbiri This is incredible

Wemby vs. Caruso

@JaredWeissNBA That dunk over J Dub was legitimately ridiculous

These Wemby post-ups and rolls are mind blowing. The falling backwards dunk on the roll. The lefty hook over the triple team coming for him when it looked like he was gonna pass out of it, the drop step into a slam right over J Dub, it's just remarkable stuff he is breaking out. All of this with the Thunder missing pretty much every shot when he is nearby. This is a different level of Wemby. He is stepping up his game to meet the biggest moment and making a declaration to Shai and everyone who voted for him that he's ready to be the best player in the game and take the MVP.

@JonesOnTheNBA The picture glitches frequently and the audio sync is often very bad. But agree they do have a good studio and game crews

For those rejoicing, what’s your issue? I think Prime has been great this year and only had one glitch for me the whole year. And I think they have the best studio show right now.

@ChadGraff 17-0

Here's the Patriots' 2026 schedule. That stretch after Thanksgiving is going to be a gauntlet.

@_11_22_38 @LRubinsonWFAN @SamQuinnCBS Except Presti is a great talent evaluator and fosters and incredible culture. Hinkie couldn’t identify a good basketball player to save his life and actively fostered a historical losing culture. But other than that, yes, very much the same

@LRubinsonWFAN @SamQuinnCBS Not that hard to imagine- look at the thunder .

It’s interesting how many generations of bad decisions contributed to Philly’s predicament. Hinkie gave them an almost foolproof asset surplus. But Colangelo traded for Fultz. And Brand chose Tobias/Simmons over Jimmy. And Brown traded Bridges. And Morey signed those contracts.

@LRubinsonWFAN @SamQuinnCBS Nothing would have changed. It was a basketball Ponzi scheme

@SamQuinnCBS I’ve always wondered how it would have looked if the Sixers had actually trusted the Process and let Hinkie see it through. I can’t imagine he would have traded up for Fultz (it went against his philosophy to trade away assets). Colangelo was terrible.

@JMcDonald_SAEN Fox is actively terrible

Spurs' offense is completely off kilter now. From the end of the second quarter, they've gone 1 for their last 13 to let Minnesota scratch within two points.

@JMcDonald_SAEN If the league suspends him for game 5 then they’re dumber than everyone already thinks they are

The league will review the Wembanyama play tomorrow. The question now is whether he will be available for Game 5.

@NateDuncanNBA He also got hit in the face on the Shannon drive earlier. Clearly a move of frustration

Part of the issue there is that Victor got fouled twice, including McDaniels grabbing his other arm with 2 hands. And so when guys get beat up like that, they respond physically as well. Doesn't excuse the elbow, but could have been avoided by calling the first 2.
