2026 NBA Season

[Fredomago]

Check out this tweet that the restaurant Wendy’s just posted on X from their social media account. Absolutely hilarious. Would you go and get some free fries from Wendy’s if they offered it? We better see a partnership in the future here.

“might change my name to Wemby’s and only serve french fries after last night’s game“

That is so hilarious, I must say the handler is a huge fan of the San Antonio Spurs and also probably a huge fan of Wemby.

His been going through the game and have probably seen something spectacular from Wemby performance against the OKC.

Apparently he had to take the opportunity to advertise the business on twitter with such an incredible talented Rhymes.

It's a good ride while that name is really relevant inside social medias, I guess that tweets may create impacts to their business, and yes, surely he's a big fan as he's willing to take the name, and business wise if Wemby will keep that kind of performances they might win the series and keep that chase for another title for Spurs as it's been a while from the last ring that they've got, WCF then NBA finals after.

Guys, this is just one game though, we need to calm down. Still a long series so let's see how the Thunder will react next. Although I believed that the NBA has unlocked Wemby's aura to become one of the best in the next 5 years or so.

So let's see how he will do in game 2. He might surpassed this performance and put up a 50 point game for all we know. So we should just relax and enjoy the ride and witnessing another break out game to become a legit NBA superstar.

Can't blame people to get hype with the game 1 result, Wemby shows amazing performance and they manage to defeat OKC which they usually did in regular season.

But yeah its early, but its good to recognize the efforts done by Spurs. Many says it just a game 1 and its usual thing for OKC because they experience that for many times. This time will be so different since they are combating a well stack team and Wemby is there dominating Holgren and other OKC players.

It is intense and likely the actual finals and that's why everyone's hype and that only shows that none of them wouldn't want to go home with an L.
Wemby is impressive and this is why it's enjoying to see from the start of this season up to this point.
And how much more in the NBA finals. I think with what's shown in this game, many are now eyeing for the Spurs in the finals.
Although we can't deny that the game a while ago of Knicks and the Cavs is also a good one.

If we can see the game 1 one scoring, starting five players were unable to score in a usual way, we may think that they were just sizing the spurs but the reality is they don't really want to be block, its useless to attack in the basket were wemby is roaming around, imagine going to the basket and the ball is just a few inch away, then a long arm and an open hand will just swat it away its tiring, no wonder they settle more in outside, Caruso shooting hot in three point line, make the game close, but imagine if Caruso were unable to just score 10 pts, that's the the lead difference.

The game between Spurs and OKC showed the world that it is not going to be easy for OKC to win this series, even if they could.

Wemby played incredible, that dude is the most unique player I have ever seen, he is great at inside but also can shoot logo distance threes on the clutch moments as well, that shot was something that Steph Curry did, and now a 7'5 dude is doing it, that's not even something I can easily comprehend even though I saw it with my own two eyes. Not sure if Spurs will be able to play this perfect every game, but if they do play like this, they have a chance.

Their chance is huge now because they are already ahead in the series. Stealing one game in OKC is already big, because that puts real pressure on the defending champion. And we already saw that OKC has no clear answer for Wemby. As long as he keeps producing that kind of numbers, I don’t think it is impossible for the Spurs to steal another game.

Who knows, maybe they might even sweep OKC here. It sounds bold, but after Game 1, you can’t really say it is impossible anymore.

[freedomgo]

They will not and they don’t have to play perfect every game, all they have to do is try to win because in a best-of-7 series, they only need 4 wins.

But OKC is the champion here, they have that pride especially at home, so I expect them to bounce back strong in Game 2. Game 1 was not really dominated by the Spurs, it was close and either team could have won that one. That deep shot by Wemby, if it did not go in, that could have resulted in OKC winning the game, so I still trust OKC here.

Nothing is perfect in NBA since each play have flaws. Players either they are star or role player could commit mistakes in the game. That perfect thing is just a fantasy and maybe they are looking for their favorite team to play like that.

But talking about win what teams need to have is good determination since everything will follow if they play so hard to achieve their goals. Looking at Wemby it seems he's heavily motivated and want to finish OKC in this series. Let's find out if he can maintain his performance in game 2.

Wemby has been balling so far, even the mighty Timberwolves did not really have a chance against them, so the Spurs are really legit.

Wemby is just unstoppable, even Chet could not stop him. He is still far from Wemby’s level, and Chet is already a highly paid player for OKC. I know SGA is good, especially in drawing fouls, but Wemby is just built different. With his height, he does not only produce points, he also grabs rebounds, makes blocks, and even gets steals. Having someone like him on the team will surely make his teammates more confident because they know he can impact the game in so many ways.

Looking forward to seeing what Wemby does tonight. He’s got some pretty high expectations after the last game. Tonight’s game is airing on Peacock.

The Knicks got it done last night against the Cavaliers. Looking like we may see a Knicks va Spurs matchup in the finals.

The funny thing about this game is that Caruso actually torched up the game and still didn't help OKC win. Normally he is a role player, while he is decent, he is not the type of guy who will give you 30 points, that is not what he is about at all. He is a very good defender, hell he even had a few positions where he managed to prevent Wemby from getting the ball, which shows how great he is on defense.

But because Spurs didn't defended him on perimeter, he had many wide open shots, and even with that OKC couldn't win because they had everyone else bad. Next game we are not going to see Caruso be this wide open, and if others are still bad, then we are going to see Spurs not only win, but actually dominate the game.

[OgNasty]

This might be the craziest shot chart I’ve ever seen.  They clearly want to use Wemby inside, but then there’s that one 3 point shot that the game will be remembered for. I watched the game and I honestly didn’t even notice that all his shots were from right next to the hoop except the half court three…

[Harkorede]

I’m not confident enough to bet OKC Thunder tonight, but I do want them to even the series, to get things more interesting as I’d this series to get stretched for as long as possible, and that might not happen if OKC Thunder can’t win tonight, I have a very small bet on Spurs ML, but that’s about it, I’d not be pissed for losing my bet if it’s at the first expense of extra interesting playoffs basketball.

If the game tonight was anything like the first one then I would expect the Thunder to fight back to even things up too.
Oklahoma can't just allow a team like San Antonio take a two game lead in this series or they won't have any determination to strive for the next one.
Just watch Shai Gilgeous-Alexander pop off as Wembanyama did and have a 40+ point performance.
As for the points total I would go with the over and a OKC win for this match.

Fox is listed on the injury report as questionable, so this might be the last game he sits out if he doesn’t play. Once he comes back, I think OKC is going to have even bigger problems on their hands. They really need to get this one tonight if they don’t want to be put in a really bad spot.

It's actually the OKC Thunder with a 11-point lead this time around at the end of halftime, Hartenstein illegally (and otherwise) have been done quite decent job on Wembanyama so far in this half, he managed to get away with a lot of grabs and hold, but have 3 fouls, so it might be a tough one for the OKC Thunder if he picks up the 4th early into the 2nd half and have to sit out for longer while.

As for the Spurs, they've got to find away to get Wemby going and more involve with the entire play, I don't see them beating OKC Thunder without a significant input from him.

This game is so awful to watch, the calls and miscalls are insane, you can see in the video that they already holding wrapping wemby while in front of the refs and they won't even call, on the other hand there were late calls the spurs are on the act of pushing the ball then a call is made.
painful to watch they are messing the beauty of the game, im not a spurs fans nor OKC but watching this game is really hard to believe that the league are letting this officials calls like that, even with the review they are sticking with the call lol.

It’s painful to watch the game with obvious unfair calls but the injury of Harper is one of the huge factor why they lose on this match. They have a lot of turnover committed on this match which makes them unable to catch up when they are on momentum.

OKC injured Jdub too so I believe it’s still a fair match between this 2 team. I was planning to bet on Spurs to continue my streak but I was hesitant due to OKC possible counter measures against Wemby which is harassing without calls.

Let’s how the ref call will change in SA.

It's a must win for them, and things will be very different if they lose in Game 2. I didn't put a bet on them though not because I'm not confident, but the odds aren't that attractive enough for me to bet. Well, it's good that after losing in Game 1, they won in Game 2. 122-113.

I don't know, but I already expected that the Thunder will bounce back after their loss. Coach Daigneult made some adjustments, and because of that 2OT Game 1, both teams had a deep rotation instead of just staying with 8 or 9-man. After SGA's poor performance in Game 1, he stepped up and scored 30 points on this one, but let's give credits to the bench of the Thunder as well as they scored 57 points in total and I'll give credits to Hartenstein as well because of how well he fought Wembanyama inside the paint when it comes to rebounding. He got 13 rebounds and 8 of those are offensive rebounds, and aside from that, they didn't even put Chet on Wemby because he can't defend him but instead, they put Hartenstein on him, and it worked.

Now as for the Spurs, the main problem with them is the Turnovers. They had 21 turnovers on both Game 1 and Game 2. It could be a different result if they don't turn the ball over that much. Well, the Spurs did what they need to do and that's to steal one on the road. Now they need to do what they must do and that's to defend their home court. A good bounce back win by the Thunder to even the series.
