@KurtisHanni The broadcast has a huge influence and they’re not helping..
My mentions are continually filled with the fan side of things and I ignore 95% of them bc they’re naturally blinded by their team’s bias

@MattSandersNBA This is why I’ve almost completed quit engaging with other fans and exclusively just calling out the “journalists.”
So many are just engagement baiting for money and attention.

NBA Twitter is a disease, man.. and it’s not just random fan accounts, bc that’s to be expected to a certain degree.
But do you know how many journalists and broadcasters have cried & complained on this app just for the stats to not back up their claims at all?

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has played 35 playoff games over the last 2 seasons, shooting 334 FT attempts in that span. His 334 attempts rank outside of the top 1,000 for most FT Attempts in any 35-game playoff span in NBA History. He remains the Finals MVP Favorite on Kalshi.

@JoshPGarcia Harper got hurt with 4:50 left in the 3rd. He played all but his 4Q rotation.
Dub was spectacular in G1 and carried us a lot. He’s an all NBA player that you’re just throwing out.
And Ajay sets up the offense against an uber aggressive defense.
English
@MattSandersNBA Fox missed the first two. Harper essentially missed the second. Fox is playing with a high ankle sprain and Harper hasn’t been the same. JDub just hasn’t been available this year. This series hasn’t been a good matchup for Mitchell
English
Dancing on the Thunder’s grave with two of their top 4 scorers out.
Spurs fans without even an ounce of realization that they’re beating backups. lol.
Alright Daigz, hope you’ve got something cooking between those squinting eyes.
English
Mentioned it here, but I feel like you’ve gotta look at getting the ball to iHart and operating through back cuts and DHOs. Granted, tonight it resulted in iHart just continually taking that floater.
Another added factor would be bringing wemby away from the basket.

SGA on playing without Jalen Williams and Ajay Mitchell: “We played a fair amount of games this year with no handlers, so we'll be a little bit used to that.”
English
@geola388 But he was handling their pressure.. did you not see how rushed the offense was and how low the quality of shots were?
English
@MattSandersNBA I think you're overstating his role in games 1-3 😂 he was basically a neutral
English
My confidence since taking a 2-1 lead has greatly diminished thanks to the Ajay injury news, and now seeing that The Extender is going to be in San Antonio tonight.
Clemente Almanza@CAlmanza1007
Scott Foster, Curtis Blair, Nick Buchert and Brent Barnaky are the referees for Thunder vs. Spurs Game 4
English
@MattSandersNBA Fox didn’t play game 2 and Harper got hurt in the 1st quarter…
According to you we beat yalls backups today….according to me yall beat our backups in game 2
English
@MattSandersNBA Dancing on the Spur’s grave after game 3 with two of their top 4 scorers out
Thunder fans without even an ounce of realization that they’re beating backups lol
Alright Mitch, I see you make adjustments and cooking with that raspy ass voice
English
Refs affected the game tonight, but not as much as OKC just missing a second ball handler to allow SGA to start sets at then elbow or the wing.
McCain is a great story and a great C&S / driver, but he is not a PG, and it’s unfair to put him in this position. Needs to be Caso.
Matt Ravis@mattravis
This won’t make me popular on here, but I don’t understand blaming this on the refs when the Spurs have clearly been the better team so far
English
@shivam_texas y’all pressure guards just as much as we do! Castle/Harper were straight mugging SGA tonight. Our usual counter is getting SGA off ball and letting someone else bring it up the court.
And don’t get me started on the non-SGA minutes. lol
English
@MattSandersNBA Those players are more important the J Dub because we need more ball handlers to combat OKC pressure physical defense!
English
@shivam_texas So hurt that they’re both in the game up 20+ with 5 minutes left. Non-comparable if you ask me.
English
@MattSandersNBA Spurs had injuries too earlier in the series like Fox & Harper be real bro!
English
Game 2 had this app in shambles… ready to go to the league office showing clips of iHart.. got compared to BILL LAIMBEER 😂 (FTs.. OKC 24 to SAS 17)
Tonight, where the spurs guards constantly grabbed & held SGA all night.. crickets on the broadcast (FTs… OKC 18 to SAS 32)
English
@MikeSmart1 @geola388 Embarrassing that you thought Ajay wasn’t a massive contributor to our offense.
English
@MattSandersNBA @geola388 Don’t be a pussy, Matt. It’s embarrassing.
English
Losses bc of being outplayed or out-coached are easier to get over bc there’s always adjustments and a continual chess match.
Losses bc of injuries are just so much depressing bc there’s only so much you can do with limited personnel.
English
@MattSandersNBA Aint noway youve lost confidence after losing Ajay. The brother has basically been a non-factor this series
English
@MattSandersNBA is this even impressive? 🥱

WEMBY FROM HALF-COURT AT THE HALFTIME BUZZER 🚨 (via @NBA)
English
There’s a pretty good chance Stephon Castle is who people think Lu Dort is in terms of their character.
English
38 points at the half. The writing was on the wall.
Shot making isn’t the problem. It’s the shot quality.
Spurs love to apply pressure on the perimeter, and Ajay was able to handle it and get them into a rhythm.
English
Offense is just a mess… remember when yall were saying we would be fine without Ajay? lol
English
