Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
And, uh, and last eight years, we haven't had a series like that with the 2017 finals.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
Um, and we had 2016 golden state versus OKC and then golden state versus Cleveland.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
I think those are probably the three best series of the last four best series of the last 10 years.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
Um, and talent wise next round would be on the level of San Antonio finishes.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
No, it's, I'm just, I'm finally giving up.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
No, no, no, Joker, I think he had his run.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
I think he's out of it now.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
Malleability, too, with lineups.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
Teams that can throw different looks at you depending on what the situation is.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
Both teams can go smaller.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
They can play three guards.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
They can play three guards, a shooter, and a center.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
They can go bigger, too, to some degree.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
OKC probably can do that a little bit better because, as we said, San Antonio feels like they're maybe one bigger guy short.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
And then there's this roughing up Wemby thing
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
Which, you know, it's funny, like, I didn't get a chance to talk about the game when he elbowed Nas.

Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
And, you know, it's slow-mo.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
Slow-mo makes everything look worse.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
But it did seem like he sized him up for a second.
The Bill Simmons Podcast
Wemby Gets Revenge, Morey’s Out, and a Trade-Fueled Mega-Mailbag With Kirk Goldsberry and David Jacoby
But it was also 15, not to defend Wemby, but it was 15 small to medium things that led to him being mad enough to whip an elbow at somebody.
