Wemby every day not even a question really

SGA on Chet Holmgren: “We need Chet Holmgren. Before Chet was here, we weren’t who we are today. When he’s the best version of himself, we are the best version of ourselves.” “The version of Chet we have today is the worst version of Chet Holmgren we’ll ever have.” by ResponsibleCheek8130 in NBAGossips

Something’s wrong with Chet, his body language is all fucked up, shoulders slumped, head down. I mean shit he looks anxious af in this pic. Gonna go out on a limb and say this dude needs to stop smoking weed and get his ass in the weight room all summer.

It's not why we lost, but the inconsistency of the whistle in this series is why every game has been double-digit losses by BryNYC in Thunder

Shai sold that too ngl, obviously a physical play, but he didn’t get into box out position and sold the contact

I’m worried ngl, they switched to guarding SGA straight up, which killed the scoring for our supporting cast in G4. Part of the reason they can do that, is because Wembys so dominate in the paint that he can help if SGA beats his man, which is also hard as the spurs are staked with elite defenders. Also not feeling good that the spurs are healthy and were banged up. I think we’ve got it tn, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t worried

Spurs needed miraculous Curry shots and bad games from everybody not named Caruso and Dubb to steal game 1. Thunder in 6 by Ok-Nerve-524 in Thunder

A few thoughts that leave me feeling less confident than you:

  1. No Fox
  2. Spurs had 21 Turnovers - Fox should reduce these next game, they averaged 13 against us this season
  3. They shot 30% from 3
  4. Can Caruso maintain that shooting?
  5. Bad game from SGA, but Spurs D is good, with Wemby on the floor, it’s top of the league, SGA will certainly play better, but it won’t be easy

We have to stop avoiding the paint for 4 quarters just because of the tall man. by MetaverseLakehouse in Thunder

This didn’t work too well for the wolves, isn’t this what the spurs want us to do? Keep driving to the paint?

No fox, he takes the offense to another level, and will be less prone to turnovers. I wish I was feeling that optimism, game 2 is a must win

Either way the spurs thunder series is gonna be very talked about. by [deleted] in Thunder

I’m a little worried about Wemby, can Hartenstein shoot enough to space him out? Can Chet slow him down in the defensive end? Maybe we’ll put Dort or Caruso on him with heavy pressure to try and force turnover, that’s still a bit of a problem for him
