Unc, Ocho & Iso Joe react to Wemby & Spurs EVEN SERIES vs SGA & Thunder + All-NBA teams | Nightcap

Victor Wembanyama delivered a career-defining playoff game, recording 33 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, and 3 blocks in just 31 minutes. His performance, which included a half-court shot, placed him in an exclusive club with LeBron James and Kevin Durant as the only players in NBA history to achieve such a stat line in a playoff game.

Victor Wembanyama in 31 minutes had 33 points, eight rebounds, five assists, two steals, three blocks, five alter shots, and three three-point shots. None bigger than the half court shot he hit right before the end of the half, joining LeBron James and KD as the only players in NBA history to reach those numbers in a playoff game.

The San Antonio Spurs executed an outstanding defensive game plan, holding the high-powered Oklahoma City Thunder to a season-low 82 points. OKC shot a dismal 33% from the field and 18% from beyond the arc. This defensive effort was crucial in evening the series, demonstrating the Spurs' ability to 'dismantle' an opponent's offense.

To hold a Thunder to 82 points, Joe, with the reigning two-time MVP, a four-time first team allNBA selection, and you held that team to 82 points. The Spurs got to be really proud. Coach Johnson is really proud. ... OKC only shot 33% from the field, but hell, San Antonio ain't shoot but 38, right? OKC shot 18% from the three. San Antonio shot 27. This was a great defensive game.

A key adjustment by the Spurs was neutralizing OKC's bench, which had been a major factor in previous games. After scoring 76 points in Game 3, OKC's bench was 'non-existent' in Game 4, contributing only 34 points, a 42-point drop. This significantly hampered OKC's offensive flow and ability to sustain runs.

We talk about OKC and what they've done, what the bench done last game and won them the game. Damn, man. I mean, it was just non-existent tonight, fellas. ... They had 76 last game, right? Yes. Yeah. I'm thinking, hey, Joe, I'm thinking they gonna come and do the same thing this game had 30. They was a no. It was a no-show.

Chet Holmgren's offensive impact is questioned, particularly against a defender like Wembanyama. His 'methodical and robotic' movements make it hard for him to get shots off under pressure, and he struggles to consistently lighten the offensive load for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, especially when other key players are out.

It's like Chick Homeridge. He ain't fast twitch enough, you know, for for his height. Like he can't It's like everything he do is so methodical and kind of robotic... It's like his moves are so methodical that it's kind of hard for him to get his stuff off. ... He's very very methodical. Ain't nothing ain't nothing like woo just fluid like ah ah like Scott say everything is free and easy like the breeze. That ain't him.

Jaylen Duran's selection to the Third Team All-NBA has massive financial implications, making him eligible for a 5-year, $287.1 million supermax extension from the Detroit Pistons. This is a significant increase compared to the 4-year, $177 million he could receive from another team, underscoring the financial value of All-NBA honors.

After Jaylen Duran made the third team allNBA selection, he's now eligible for the super max, which is 287.1 million extension. ... The max he could receive from another team is four years 177 million. So he can get an extra year and an extra 110 million from Detroit.

Jaylen Brown expressed surprise at receiving awards due to his 'controversial' platform. The hosts speculate that his social consciousness and independent brand (not affiliated with Nike or Adidas) might have contributed to his exclusion from the Olympic team, despite his strong defensive skills and recent Finals MVP and Larry Bird Award wins.

Jaylen Brown said on Twitch tonight, 'I'm grateful. God is the greatest. I'm not the most liked. Sometimes I use my platform a little controversially. I'm surprised I win awards at all sometimes.' ... All them Nike guys and he got his own shoe. They not Hey, hey, when we talk about we talk about business and everything is about money, they ain't going to let him come over there and make his shoe global. No. No. No.
