Thank You for everything @BarackObama

So good!

This season, we’re doing things a bit differently and dropping our icebreakers here as exclusive bonus content! We asked Shameka Dwight (@shamekadwight): What was the first song that made you feel something? Her answer? The timeless "Ready for Love" by the legendary @indiaarie.

One of the craziest sports statistics I've ever seen: The Spurs led for 72% of the NBA Finals. They lost in five games.

The Spurs choked this series away. Fox is HORRIBLE and should've been benched. He deserves every bit of blame he's receiving. The coaching for San Antonio was atrocious. Wemby must get stronger. Brunson is so tough. He comes through in every moment that it matters!

Mitch Johnson really preferred to lose a championship than bench an ineffective player. Never seen anything like that in my entire life, and I hope I never see it again.

Mitch Johnson playing De’Aaron Fox over Dylan Harper lost them a championship.

The Spurs led by 12 in every game and led/tied in the final two minutes of every game. Lost the series 4-1.

De'Aaron Fox in the NBA Finals: 24-of-70 FG (34.2%) 7-of-28 3PT (25%) Fox in the 4th quarters this series: 0-of-2 FG in Game 1 2-of-2 FG in Game 2 2-of-6 FG in Game 3 1-of-5 FG in Game 4 0-of-4 FG in Game 5

If San Antonio could, they should pack De'Aaron Fox's stuff up today and ship him somewhere else. @ChrisCanty99 thinks De'Aaron Fox lost Game 4 as much as anyone else for the Spurs.

The Spurs did a lot of dumbass things to lose that game 1. Why is Wemby playin 44 minutes when you're dominating the game like that? 2. Why was Castle in the game late in the 2nd quarter up 25 with 2 fouls? 3. Why is Keldon Johnson ever on the court? 4. Why would Fox take that layup? 5. Why would Fox foul Alvarado with 5 seconds left instead of saving your foul to give until after the timeout? 6. Why are you in the penalty for the last EIGHT minutes of the basketball game and not telling your players to attack the rim? 7. WHY IS DYLAN HARPER NOT GETTING THE BALL DOWN THE STRETCH? 8. Again, why is Keldon Johnson ever seeing the court?

Michael Wilbon crushed the Spurs after blowing a 29-point lead to the Knicks: ​"It's the dumbest stretch of basketball at a championship level I've ever seen... They could have done the basketball equivalent of taking a knee and run the clock out... instead they are hoisting threes. It’s the biggest choke I have seen in any sport at the championship level."

Seriously De'Aaron Fox needs to be investigated. There's NO WAY a man that's been in the league for almost a DECADE does that. Disgusting. Sickening. Remove him from the roster and league.

Spurs were up double digits every single game and are down 3-1 absolutely horrendous coaching combined with generational choking plays to end game 2 and 4

Game 1… Spurs led Knicks by 14. Game 2… Spurs led Knicks by 12. Game 4… Spurs led Knicks by 29. Spurs lost all 3 of these games.

Dylan Harper dominated all night and was 8 for 12. Yet Mitch Johnson kept drawing up plays for De’Aaron Fox. Gregg Popovich should take over for game 5. Some of the worst coaching we’ve ever seen.

Takeaways from the Spurs 107-106 Game 3 loss vs. New York: - That might be the worst loss in franchise history. - I genuinely have no idea why De'Aaron Fox decided to shoot that layup. - I also have no idea why when the Spurs missed eight straight three pointers Mitch Johnson allowed them to keep shooting. - De'Aaron should never have shot that, but the Spurs should've never been in that position. - How is it with 7:17 left in the game in the bonus there is zero rim aggression? - Somehow every reason I've complained about Mitch this series is right back in my mouth. - Why did Victor Wembanyama's shot diet consist of threes after his hot start in the paint? - How are we still wondering why Dylan Harper didn't get to close out the game? - Devin Vassell was great, he gets a pass. - Stephon Castle's foul trouble was why the Knicks got back in the game. - Doesn't help that Julian Champagnie shot 1/7 from three. - Carter Bryant absolutely deserved more minutes than Keldon Johnson tonight. - I don't understand how the Spurs allow so many offensive rebounds. - I'm confused why they refused to attack the basket. 28 points in the paint is ridiculous. - I understand wanting to keep trying and shoot threes out of the half after the historic shooting in the first half, but not turning away from it when it wasn't working is ridiculous. - I don't understand how OG Anunoby is always open. - The Spurs scored 30 second half points. - I just have no words. - That was the loss that demoralized this team. - Mitch Johnson genuinely ran middle school offense in Game 4 of the NBA Finals. - I'm not even mad, I'm just numb and confused. 1-3. #PorVida

“That was a dumbass play. He did not have to shoot that ball.” — Charles Barkley on De'Aaron Fox (h/t @ohnohedidnt24)

Respect to the Knicks… but San Antonio is losing the finals themselves. Game 1: Blew a 14 point lead in 3rd Game 2: Bad turnover with 8 seconds left Game 3: Won Game 4: Blew a 29 point lead This has to be the biggest playoff choke of all time.
