What's it gonna be?

The pendulum swing series goes to seven.

Good morning. One more game until the NBA Finals. Let's basketball.

Fittingly for this series, 48 hours after the Oklahoma City Thunder looked as if they had wore down Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs' frenetic defense and broken through, the Spurs put the Thunder and especially Shai Gilgeous-Alexander in a bottle, tossed that bottle into the river, and then shot it with a 16-pound cannon.

The result: a 118-91 Spurs win that wasn't that close with basically an entire 12 minutes of garbage time.
