Let’s hope the exposure Ayo and TSJ got will get them the contracts (and PT) they deserve . I am still dreaming of 5 Illini on an NBA all star team… some day.

Zero TOs as well.
Practical Effects movie magic right there. 
I almost can’t tell it’s a big sheet of cheap red cellophane. (Which is probably the point.)

They just have way too many pieces, that don’t exactly fit. Ant is a superstar, but for other areas on the roster, they need to prioritize quality (over quantity).
Bottom line is they need more talent on that roster.
Castle, a guard, has locked him up. That guy is doing the same things to Randle that he did to Shannon in the NCAA tournament.
I'm not sure how you beat SA.
TSJ has improved.

Never understood the trade that brought Randle to Minnesota in 2024 when it happened. Still don’t understand it.Among modern players, Randle is on my Mt Rushmore of Least Favorite to watch/ Guaranteed to
Imagine if he had played during the season…Finch is a problem. Hope he corrects it
SA won 4/5 in regular season, but OKC favored.
SA will take rim away with Wemby and exhaust SGA with Castle. Someone is gonna have to step up. Iconic series.
Shannon has gotten a lot better. It's going to take a jump shooting team to be SA. How the refs call the series will be a big part of the outcome.

SGA vs Castle when OKC is on offense will be appointment television.
It really will be. I'm personally hoping Castle stuffs the flopper.
Don't like the fact they kept him. He is a defense minded coach who was not very good at defending Spurs. Their offense kinda sucked, too.
Castle is a STUD. The top of that draft was so bad; spurs got the one big time piece.
Castle likes to use all of his fouls. Will be interesting to see how the refs call it with SGA and his embellishments. He has a privileged whistle and don’t think Castle has earned that treatment yet. Gotta be able to stay on the court.
