i love how much wemby hates chet
Please do Joker Christmas Day performance!
Right on time for new years
First
Can you do a breakdown of Saitama vs. Orochi in the One Punch Man season 3 finale?
Upping the creativity on the titles i see
Great breakdown 👍
OKC fans are sweating 😂
Give me some Cade vids. I've been told he's better than Luka lmao
7:00 these 1 man zone plays are so awesome to watch
Happy new year you basketball sickos
Rockets should be 35 and 1 by now as well. Crazy that they are not
Spurs stop OKC is a perfect title dont change it
Never clicked so fast on one of Ben's videos! Great stuff as always. Go spurs go!
77-5
9:45 a slight error saying wemby off twice, but it might be too late, anyway. great stuff though!
Castle really reminds me of Derrick Rose
Caruso did the right thing by letting it fly. You know he'll be in the gym putting up corner 3s all season after getting targeted like that. If he knocks a few of those same same shots down, and he could force adjustments the other way.
Betting my life savings on a spurs chip now
Longtime Basketball fan, dribbling in the NBA has changed so much, guards are playing foward, centers play guard. In 10 years the game of basketball will be fucking phenomenal
Regular season and Post-season are different things
Wemby needs to be checked at area 51😂👽🏀.
Spurs 2027 NBA champions..see you lot on the river walk
Brilliant match-up these 2 teams. Question: Is it a rock, paper, scissors thing or does this put the Spurs as the favourites?
I don't watch trash basketball anymore but I'm here to comment this. Regular season never translates into playoffs so if we go with history what the Spurs did doesn't mean anything in the playoffs because they likely won't match up but if they do OKC will end up winning out. Of course Vegas will want to squeeze every drop of it so it'll go 7 games. I'm doing this so when we get there I can say I told ya so. Stop watching this rigged nonsense, this isn't even basketball anymore. Everyone travels, everything is a foul, no defense and it's a 3 point shooting contest. The NBA has lost its charm.
Wemby just got hyperextension knee so he might miss the next match up 😢
Fair assessment, but I think poor shooting by the Thunder and hot shooting by the Spurs played a factor.
cool
Mr. Thinking Basketball, sir. Could you please use your considerable influence to get legalized gambling and unsightly brand sponsorship patches out of the NBA?
Great content
God I miss Kornet on the Cs. Glad the Spurs are treating him well tho.
Presti was from spurs staff, he will find a solution if the players cant.
