The Philadelphia 76ers are coming off arguably their worst two-game stretch of the season, a dreadful performance in a home loss to the Brooklyn Nets, and then a late-game collapse to see a victory slip through their fingers in Chicago. It would be nice if the Sixers had a soft landing spot coming up with […]

After the Spurs’ home win over the Oklahoma City Thunder on December 23, Spurs’ radio announcer Dan Weiss released this remarkable stat on X: This observation got me thinking that a seven-game winning streak with a different leading scorer in each game has probably never been accomplished before. Most teams that are good enough to win seven in a […]

Well, well, well. The San Antonio Spurs are proving that the Oklahoma City Thunder are not so mighty after all. The Christmas Day victory marks their third against them in 12 days and eight in a row, which has given them a ton of street cred, as they got it done in style. De’Aaron Fox […]

Last Tuesday, when the Spurs won their home game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Victor Wembanyama took to center court to engage the fans in a little jubilation. Wemby led the arena in a routine he and the Jackals have been working on. The Jackals, a rowdy bunch formed by the Spurs big man, was […]

The Silver and Black did it again. San Antonio beat the Thunder for the third time in as many matchups, and looked fully in control for most of the game en route to a 117-102 win. It was an impressive performance that showed off their improving defense and their multi-dimensional attack, for which the reigning […]

A stepback jumper by reigning Rookie of the Year Stephon Castle over Shai Gilgeous-Alexander – reminiscent of ones that the Thunder guard has hit over so many others – ended any comeback hopes for the Oklahoma City Thunder, and the San Antonio Spurs handed the champs their third loss of the young season on Christmas […]

Before the Spurs/Thunder match up last night, both coaches were individually asked about the “budding rivalry” between the two young teams. Mitch Johnson and Mark Daigneault both replied with a sense of apprehension toward stoking those flames while expressing respect for their opponent. During Johnson’s pregame presser, he stated “I don’t view it as a […]

I’m not sure what to write on the heels of the Silver and Black handing the Thunder a 20-point loss. Is it odd that the league scheduled a set of back-to-back games against the Thunder, especially since the intention was obviously to make Spurs v. Thunder a marquee Christmas event? Yes, yes it is. On […]

I’m starting to think the Spurs might just be that dude, you know? Look, I don’t know exactly what to do with my hands at this point. Two wins over the Thunder in as many weeks has me feeling like an insane person. This isn’t supposed to be happening like this. Not yet. Not right […]

It’s hard to imagine this type of seismic trade just a few days after the Minnesota Timberwolves seemingly did the impossible and handed the Oklahoma City Thunder a loss on top of the ever glorious Prince-inspired court. Maybe that win is enough to get the Wolves out of their early season funk. Maybe they return […]

NBA POWER RANKINGS — The Oklahoma City Thunder don’t lose much. So, whenever they do, we sit up and take notice. The San Antonio Spurs’ Emirates NBA Cup semifinal victory against Oklahoma exposed perhaps the club’s top vulnerability (if you can even call it that): multifaceted scoring centers. The West’s three other best teams all boast prolific All-Stars at the position, so at least the playoffs might be a bit more interesting than Oklahoma City’s regular-season run for 70-plus wins. ...
