    So tired of hearing If Aaron Gordon wasn’t injured, they’d have beaten OKC. Why don’t y’all talk about if Aaron Gordon didn’t make the game winning dunk against the Clippers in game 4 that they would’ve been a 1st round exit. The Nuggets could land the Timberwolves in the 1st round and we know how that goes

    Ben Simmons game didn’t fit the NBA narrative! He was dominant on both ends and barely attempted a jumper! No shade and no strays!

    Even if Ben Simmons can’t shoot, he is still a better player than Steven A could ever be.

    Collectively San Antonio got the pieces to win it this year, just like OKC won it last year. PS Wemby is the problem they need to solve it’s not the other way around, determined by good health of course

    no one talks about de’aaron fox, hes an all star and a scoring machine who once scored 60. hes just taking a step back in spurs offense.

    Stephen A. Smith deserves a BET Award for what he’s done with ESPN.

    Stephen a calling Ben a thief is disrespectful buddy acts like he’s the one who paid the man lol say what you want Ben could still be a very valuable role player hopefully he comes back strong for a contender he’d be a beast for the spurs or with Jokic
