On some real shít, it's typical for a Spurs fan to make a thread like this. They've been fans of a team that focused on fundamentals and game planning damn near the entirety of their fandom.


A breh is at work, but I'm still gonna peep the game(if the ESPN app cooperates:mjlol:)

I want to see the adjustments OKC makes because this game is pivotal

I just wanted to share an insightful and well-made video that showed how the Pacers won Game 3, with clear examples and breakdowns.

I would expect a board full of rabid and lifelong basketball fans to be all over this sort of content.

It’s educational AND entertaining.
Frankly you have to question the intelligence of anyone who might have a problem with that.

Then again, some alleged fans are little more than irredeemable deplorables.

You know how it is on here. "STORYLINES!!!!"

We get on here and cry about what ESPN chooses to talk about, but when we get actual insight on the games/strategy, we go ghost.

This is a historically great defense in OKC. Many didn't even give this series a chance to go 6 games.

I thought Turner had to be better on the offensive side, but apparently I was wrong. This Pacers squad is just all around tough to deal with.

Having a traditional point guard might not be so stupid after all. Specially not in strategic games
One of the biggest takeaways


He is the polar opposite of a Brunson or Donavan Mitchell


You can't just load up on him and take the teams flow out cause they don't rely on him having to score 30 every night.

When he's getting up and down the court getting his teammates involved he is DANGEROUS

Also can we point out how quickly the NBA changes.

Seems like just yesterday everyone was trying to stack the deck in free agency

Now because of the second apron

You have to be great in free agency and great at DEVELOPMENT.

Because having a deep bench where various players can step up is the MOST IMPORTANT thing in the modern NBA
