    HO LEE SHIT.

    So happy for this choke job by the Spurs. This is why you don’t spout off “I’m in your head.”

      And Wemby missing both free throws with under 2-min left. Maybe Vic was projecting with those words lol

        When Chet missed two free throws at the end of a playoff game a couple years ago everyone said he was washed.

        Time to send Wemby back to France.

      I hope they didn’t blow their entire load in the first half. Too many times they have a good lead only to have their opponent close the gap in the second. Especially with this Knicks team who can shoot lights out and did what they did to the Cavs in the ECF.

    OG Anunoby’s “The Tip” is about to join Lebron’s “The Block” in NBA history.

    Lol like I said, Spurs have a bad habit of letting off the gas in the second half after taking a huge lead.

    Wow, absolute choke job. This is on Fox, so many dumb plays in the clutch. 2 crucial turnovers, then not running out the clock at the last possession.

    It was heartbreaking to watch as a Knicks fan until the 3rd Q, and then the Spurs just started chucking 3s like they had it in the bag but missing… And that final 7 mins was one of the best basketball experiences I ever had.
