re: Wemby 1st Ring Incoming

1. SGA
2. Jokic
3. Wemby

Voters thought Jokic was more impressive than Wemby. SGA backed up his repeat MVP award. The stats don’t lie; and you can’t mention the postseason being a reason for not being MVP. It’s a regular season accomplishment. MVP well deserved.

And you have no room to talk being a Lakers fan. The NBA bows down to the King of Flops, Tears, and Load Management. Whatever LeBron wants, LeBron gets. Other than the 2016 title, what has LeBron accomplished on his own while carrying the team? Two super team titles and a bubble no fans allowed title. Sorry, but that doesn’t impress at all.
New Orleans is basically a one horse town. No one recognizes the Pelicans.

Saints fans still whine about the playoff loss to the Rams in the 2018 NFCCG.

LSU fans whine all the time unless something favors them.

I don’t usually say much on LSU since they own us in big football games but outside of that, if you talk about everything else, the LSU/Saints fans are big on the “what ifs” and “if not for the refs.”
It’s funny because Hali was available for the other games the Thunder won in the Finals. Thunder won that game fair and square. But if you want to go the “Hali was out” route, then we can say the only reason why San Antonio won the West Finals is because OKC was down two key players.

Thunder will draft a big name, makes key offseason moves such as getting Giannis, and be back next season contending for the West.
Claiming and winning are two different things. Oklahoma can lay claim to 2003 and 2008 because of minor selectors but we all know they didn’t win the title.

- TENN: 1951, 1998

I had no clue until you said it! She’s the older sister of OU legend Keilani Ricketts who was the main star on OU’s 2013 title team. Of course Samantha is an OU alum as well which makes it all that much sweeter for her.
If only Oklahoma played a terrible Texas, just maybe Auburn gets the nod. Oklahoma shutout eventual one-loss Rose Bowl champion Texas; essentially the same Texas team that cruised next year to the 2005 national title. In fact, I’d take 2004 Texas over Auburn.

Auburn was just unlucky. They did everything right. It was all about placement. #1 and #2 went unchanged from beginning to end.

For the Texas fans out there….

I’m a big fan of older team memorabilia and accomplishments, no matter the program. I like older championship rings especially and Texas’s from 1963, 1969, 1970 are quite nice and detailed. Anyways, here’s a page of cool pieces from recent years to way back.

Texas Football History
As long as Texas prevents OU from getting in the end zone, Sark is a lifer.
Campbell and Sims collaborate with their food products I’ve seen in various places. All great food. This was a limited time feature at Billy Sims BBQ.
No true Sooner fan wants anything from the dreadful 1995 season coached by Howard Smellsofbourbon.
Falls and fouls are two different things. Most of the time he draws contact. It’s not his fault others can’t defend him without making contact. The NBA Champion and 2x MVP has nothing to feel sorry for. People hate winners.

re: Ranking the SEC in terms of BBQ

I agree with this. Kansas City BBQ is unmatched. Texas BBQ is too greasy, Oklahoma BBQ is good, Memphis BBQ is average.
If San Antonio wins the series, it will get more praise as it was a defining moment that had perhaps the biggest impact. It’s reminiscent of the Kawhi shot in 2019 for Toronto. BUT that shot was for the series win in a game seven. It was the LAST shot. Wemby’s was in a game one but it could mean more depending on how the series plays out.

If Wemby stays on track, he will get there. But for now….

1. Jordan
2. Kobe
3. Duncan
4. Shaq
5. Nowitzki
It’s a regular season award. Votes are gathered prior to the postseason. The best player has been deservingly recognized again!
How original! Come up with something more creative.
Plenty of support in OKC unlike Seattle. The move was necessary to establish a winning tradition. Put some respect on the reigning and soon to be back-to-back World Champions!!!
