It will be tough don’t get me wrong but I rather the Spurs than the Thunder. The Knicks haven’t lost to the Spurs all season ! I know Playoffs & esp Finals will be diff but we have more of a chance vs the spurs than the Thunder

Players who couldn’t do nothin in international basketball… usually end up with no ring in NBA too…
in 2000s we had Iverson, Marbury…
