Last night’s game 2, quick thoughts. I could blame all the blatant fouling with the Thunder holding Wemby every possession, which also contributed to the Thunder getting offensive rebounds, but really it’s the turnovers.

There are some surprises in the NBA first round, but maybe no greater than the Pistons. ESPN answers a question I had:

\n
\n

The Pistons are the third team to win 60 games in the regular season but trail 3-1 in its opening series, according to ESPN Research. Each of the previous two teams – the 2011 San Antonio Spurs and 2007 Dallas Mavericks – extended its series but lost in six games.

Nice story on the Spurs in The New Yorker:

\n
\n

Last season, the team had traded for De’Aaron Fox, an All-Star guard in his prime, which appeared odd to some—wasn’t he too old to be on Wembanyama’s timeline? Now it seemed like a stroke of genius.
