The Bill Simmons Podcast
OKC’s Revenge, NBA Cup Nitpicks, and NFL Season Fun Grades with David Jacoby, Kirk Goldsberry, Kyle Brandt, and Craig Horlbeck

It's the defense. It's just, it's on a different level than every other team. I don't want to play against this team. You can just see the frustration on the body language of the Mavs. They can't throw basic passes without being harassed. Like, you remember that lively rebound he got and the cruiser just knocked it out of bounds? It's just annoying. They're just swarming wasps.

You know, one of the things that analysts always say about Luka is, like, you can't speed him up. You can't speed him up. There's a part of me that's like, hey, Luka, can you speed up? Like, you know, it's like, oh, you can't speed him up. He's always at his own pace. It's like, cool, cool, cool. How about you, like, move a little bit off the ball?

Like, there's a couple of sessions he was just, like, in the corner. Like, he's kind of getting that James Harden off-ball energy. They're like, oh, someone else has the ball, so I'm just going to stand here with my arms at my sides, like, straight up and down. It's like... It was a frustrating Luka day.

I don't think any of these teams would be a favorite in a series against the Thunder. And watching the Thunder tonight, watching them just fly around and watching SGA be like a true go-to weapon on offense the way that some of the Rockets don't have, to be honest with you.

And then every once in a while, they cut to this guy in a velour sweatsuit in the second row with a big beard who looked like he leveled up. Chet, obviously I'm talking about. It's like he's coming back. They have a major weapon.
