So I think the Spurs are the more talented group, but ultimately they may not have the experience.
My heart says the Spurs, but I think OKC is going to do it.
My heart says the Spurs, but we've got to be realistic.
Role players play better at home.
And again, they've got experience in these Game 7s.
And from being in them myself, Game 7 is a different game than all the other games.
It looks different.
It feels different.
Yes.
We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad, hey, Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast.
LeBron?
Look, I think your comp with the not one, not two, not three is exactly right.
it's not going to ruin his legacy this guy's a two-time mvp already you know and he's you know how many wins first round you know number one seeds all that kind of stuff gotten to one maybe two finals he'll be fine his legacy will be fine but the stench of how people see him in a certain way that can stick around for four or five years there's no question about that and look all teams flop lots of players flop but because he seems to do it the most at least the perception
He doesn't get to the line the most, by the way, in the league, but because he seems to fall down the most, it's sort of been pinned on him.
And viewers are frustrated.
We talked about this the other day.
Flopping, the people it hurts most are the fans, right?
It's not the other team, because if there's no free throw, then actually they're getting to go up the court, you know, five on four.
But the fans, it is miserable watching this over and over and over again.
