JR Smith on his role when he got to Cleveland: “When I got to Cleveland, I was like, “Oh sh*t they really don’t need me to score. My job is to play defense. Yeah, you shoot, but like you guarding the primary scorer night in and night out.” For me, that was a job of somebody who couldn’t score. I was a scorer, but I’m looking around like, sh*t he’s probably the best offensive player I’ve ever seen. He’s probably the best scorer I’ve ever seen. He just came from averaging 30 and 20 every night. Hey. Hey. Switch, Switch. Hey. I got him don’t worry about it. What? Sh*t is easy.” (Via Pivot Podcast)

Draymond Green says it was disappointing that the Spurs players didn’t shake Knicks hand after the loss: “The reason it was disappointing, when you go “Mano a mano” toe to toe, blow for blow with a team and they get the better of you. Those that become champions, look them in their eyes and say, “Respect, congratulations. Well deserved. And then you go to the locker room. That’s what those become champions do. When guys just leave the court and can’t face me and AV, one of our assistant coaches, we always say look your killer in the face. Look your killer in the face. You got to look them in their face. By the way if you leave the court and I just beat you, I actually know that I own you forever because you couldn’t even look me in the face.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

Doc Rivers says the Spurs future is bright, but there’s no guarantees: “I always go back to when Miami beat Oklahoma City. I remember Mike Breen saying on the air, “Well, Oklahoma City will be here every year.” It took them 20 years to get back. You know, you just can’t, you can never take things for granted. With trades, free agency, injuries, and I always use the band theories, you know, why aren’t there great bands that last forever because somebody gets jealous, somebody wants to be the man, and things change.” (Via Stephen A Smith)

Skip Bayless says Jalen Brunson is the face of the league: “The package of it is not is not wildly entertaining it just works. And what he proved to me in this series is he is the best player in the National Basketball Association right here, right now. He didn’t just show you he did it. He did that against that team and that guy. I give it up, man. You got to say here, you earn best player in the league status.” (Via Gil’s Arena)

Isiah Thomas on Jalen Brunson: “This is what we know as small people. Once we get our game right, we’re looking at everybody in the NBA saying ‘you can’t guard me.’ What Jalen Brunson just proved again, when your game is tight and right, no matter what size you are, you become the best at what you do. There wasn’t a player in the NBA this year, that you can say ‘oh, he can guard Jalen Brunson.’ (Via

Draymond Green on apologizing to Jalen Brunson for saying he’s not a 1A guy in the NBA: “The reason I said that is because I’ve been very critical of Jalen Brunson just not thinking that, hey man, he’s this 1A guy that and here’s the thing what y’all have to understand about me. When I say 1A, when I say 1A, what I’m saying is no matter what you go to, you’re the guy. Allah Steph Curry, Allah LeBron James, Allah Luka Doncic, Kawhi, like there’s only really five to seven 1As in all of the NBA. And so it’s never like a shot like y’all try to make at it Jalen Brunson. I just think there’s only like five of those guys that no matter what team you put them on, they’re the best. That’s 1A to me. That’s 1A. Needless to say, I’ve been very critical. And I think he last night take a 3-1 lead I think. I think they’re on their way to a championship. And I am not somebody who can’t say they’re wrong.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

Stephen A. Smith on LeBron James comments about the GOAT debate: “He’s talking about they would say the same thing, no they wouldn’t. Michael Jordan would never tell you he’s the GOAT, I know Michael Jordan I speak to him often, I’m telling you he’s never ever, ever once called himself the greatest never happened. Kobe Bryant didn’t call himself the greatest, Kareem didn’t call himself the greatest, Magic didn’t call himself the greatest, Bird didn’t call himself the greatest, no that’s not true. He can say they might thought it, but they never articulated it to a reporter for print purposes to be disseminated to the masses. Which brings us to LeBron James why would he do that? Because the man is addicted to trying to control the narrative.”

Michael Wilbon says the Spurs played sustain stretch of the dumbest basketball he’s ever seen: “I’m going to give you one stat, they go 14 for 26 on threes in the first half. They built this enormous lead on three point shooting but they have to know they can’t sustain that. And I remember turning to Stephen A. At one point and saying, I get this huge lead but it’s not sustainable. They thought it was sustainable because in the second half they missed 14 of 17 threes but here’s the stat, of those 17 threes 12 of them came with 10 seconds or more on the 24 second shot clock, and of those 12 threes came with 10 seconds or more they went 1 for 12.”

Anthony Edwards explains why he dapped up the Spurs with 8 minutes left: “Yeah it’s 8 minutes but we not going back in the game. When you win a playoff series everybody is celebrating at the end of the game. They’ll be smiling while I’m pissed off. I was like ‘let me go ahead and congratulate these boys because I’m not going to be laughing with y’all after you whooped my ass.’ I didn’t want to go dal them n***** up at all. But then what would they have said About me? That’s why I’m me and y’all are whoever y’all are.” (Via

Kevin Garnett says the Knicks got to get Stephon Castle under control: “If they don’t get Castle under control, he is out of control. I just told you Castle is like bullet in the neighborhood. If you’ve been in the neighborhood, bro, anybody from I’m doing the Mason Dixon. Anybody from Virginia on down know what I’m talking about because everybody up North don’t know what I’m talking about.

That’s how Castle is right now. Castle believe man I’m the best player in here.” (Via KG: Certified)

Robert Horry says he don’t understand why people get so upset about Spurs not shaking hands after the loss: “People get mad at athletes when they don’t shake hands, when you go back and you start the 2000s back nobody shake hands we didn’t care we just lost we don’t want to talk to you. So when people are like, that’s just not sportsmanship. I’m mad, I just got my a** whooped I’m not trying to be friends with nobody who kicked my a**.

Iman Shumpert on Jalen Brunson: “For all the small guard talk we did, we always got to revisit once we say some bullsh*t. Small guards can win if they do it the right way. We will all take it back…. This is for Allen Iverson. Damian Lilliard should be happy to see this. Now he understands maybe if I do these things and sacrifice these things, I can win too.” (Via Hoop Collective)

Jeff Teague says Dylan Harper is the rookie of the year: “Like nobody remembers Cooper Flagg rookie year, like right now. With Dylan Harper playing they like “He’s the best rookie in the league he had 300 points or something he had the most from a rookie ever.” He played so well that he got an All-Star, a max player, he got the world calling this n***a sad.” (Via Club520podcast)
