Let the record show that on a night in which Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are both out, OKC is playing an injured Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
Not very tanky. – 6:28 PM

I’m sure Gregg Popovich would prefer to have a Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili or Kawhi Leonard to build around, but I bet there’s a cantankerous, competitive side of him that truly enjoys the challenge of coaching up some young kids & helping them do the unexpected. – 9:48 PM
