And so anytime it's not like, hey, you can have a bad game or like, hey, we were just saying after game one, like we go into 26, 27, where it's undisputed, even if like SGA were to win another title, which, you know, probably not would happen.
But I know at least that conversation is like on the table for him.
It's just a completely different level for how he's going to be graded.
So the biggest thing I think from last night, which has been obviously a problem for the
The Spurs, when you think about the non-Wembanyama minutes, and I think the Cornette number was pretty damning on what his plus minus was the first five games of the series, but it's also to be expected.
But what would happen last night with Wembanyama not on the floor?
And he's playing a ton of minutes for him, too, by the way.
It was a massive victory.
Like, I think this is the story of the night, a massive victory for San Antonio.
So when Minyama comes out up 14-13, you may have it a little bit differently.
The way I'll do, like, plus minus on the in and out is, like, if you...
come out and then the other team makes the free throw, I'd still count that point against you.
And conversely, if you come in at a score during a free throw and then the other team makes the second free throw, I don't count that point against you.
So anyway, Wemby comes out with five minutes to go in the first quarter.
SGA stays in, which was my biggest thing from game one.
I'm like, look, if you are all about downhill attacks with SGA and you have these sub patterns, you're going to throw them out the window and you've got to just keep SGA in there as much as possible when Wenbin Yama is not playing.
And the whole point of OKC and with all this depth.
Even though there's no AJ Mitchell, but I mean, we can give you credit here for your depth when you do what you do in game five and what they did in game three, which I still was like, this is unbelievable that SJ is in there with four bench players and they're pulling away in this game.
But.
You've got to keep SGA in there, and that's exactly what they've done since game one.
