Game Thread Spurs (22-7) vs Thunder (26-4) (Thu 12/25/25) [11:30 AM CDT]

Spurs by 50 tbh.

That said, if the game gets out of hand I hope Mitch uses the opportunity to try different lineups (wanna see a lineup of Castle/Harper/Vassell/Olynyk/Wemby myself at some point in the coming games imo). Also wanna see Sochan get some extended run to either see if he can have an impact in this matchup and rebuild his confidence or (more likely) further solidify his time in SA is done.
 
Expect the Thunder to throw the kitchen sink at us. A desperate Champions hearing 'dethronement', 'kryptonite', 'next rivalry' talk will go hard for a 'statement game' on a marquee date.

A close loss is a moral win for us here.
 
So psyched for the Christmas game. Go Spurs. Probably be a closer game either way.
 
This is the true test. If we have the biggest aspirations this year (bigger than Kawhi’s), we will need to beat the likely 1-seed on their home court to get past them in the playoffs. OKC will want revenge in front of their home crowd on Christmas Day. Doesn’t get any better than this in the regular season!

We will need Vic to have a monster game, IMO. He’s got to create chaos for them, disrupt the flow and momentum.

Bring the coal!
 
Other than Fox, none of the main pieces logged over 30 mins. Plus Barnes actually played better last game after a string of bad shooting nights. Looking forward to this game!

Bring the coal!
 
It's Champ's time.

Bold Prediction: Champ sinks 6 threes and scores 25 points AND does not step out of bounds with the ball, not even once.
 
At the risk of sounding greedy, I just hope they come in a put up a good fight. It’d be easy to dismiss this one as the “Christmas game” and as an emotional let down game after a massive win, but would be very special to see them take the fight to these guys.
 
Champ had some really boneheaded plays in the last game, despite a good defensive outing overall. Needs to clean that up
 
Bring the coal! Another Christmas in the trenches.

Over on Thunder Reddit, they’re talking about how they need to trade for Giannis and whether the they should try Brendan Carlson to slow down Wemby :st-lol:

We’re completely in the fan base’s head, don’t know about the players

Yeah the Bring The Thunder Podcast last night was in full on doomer mode. This game is our chance to twist the knife

If this is even a 5 point-game with 5 mins left, maybe it's just more about us than OKC's purported vulnerabilities. Like I said above, i fully expect the Thunder's best punch tomorrow (intensity and execution-wise)
