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
