Which one of these guys will be involved in a dust-up tonight? Don’t be surprised if a message is sent to the defending champs tonight as the Spurs have their backs to the wall. The mood is unusually serious and quiet as the players appear to be ready to go all-out tonight.

Chet Holmgren has faced some major criticism in his first playoff matchup against Victor Wembanyama.
Up 3-2, this is his chance to silence the noise.

Has Dylan Harper had the most impactful rookie playoff run of the century?
There are a handful of guys who were arguably better. Derrick Rose is the name that comes to mind. But none that made it this deep and mattered this much to a team with real championship stakes.

Only five players in Spurs history to have 40+ three-pointers in a single Playoff run:
Manu Ginobili (2)

Danny Green (2)
Julian Champagnie
Devin Vassell
Vassell and Champagnie this year are the first teammates to ever do it in the same postseason.

SHAI HITS THE BUCKET OVER WEMBY.
Jeff McDonald (@ JMcDonald_SAEN):
Thunder challenging a pretty clear out of bounds call, I think in hopes of getting a proximate foul call out of it.
Jeff McDonald (@ JMcDonald_SAEN):
And that’s exactly what happened. Foul on Fox. Good challenge from Daignault
San Antonio Spurs (@ spurs):
JUUUUUUU
NBC | Peacock
Jeff McDonald (@ JMcDonald_SAEN):
The officials saw Mitch Johnson signal for a challenge this time.
I think he’ll win it, and save a foul on Vassell and two free throws from Caruso. I think OKC will keep the ball.

Just to continue tracking this … Spurs were up 10 points when Wembanyama went to the bench at the 7:37 mark of the third quarter.
They pushed that to plus 21 with him off the floor.
If the Spurs win those minutes by those margins, the Thunder are going to have a hard time.

The Spurs held OKC scoreless for a stretch of 7:28, going on a 20-0 run during that span. The Thunder managed one basket and two points in the final 8:23 of the third quarter.
They’re up 92-66 headed to fourth. Game 7 feeling likely …

Buddy, this Game 7 is going to hit like GS/OKC in 2016. Defending champs taken to the limit after a historical season. Biggest threat to the brewing dynasty trying to turn their own potential into reality. Wemby switching sides if they lose. Wait how did that get in there.
