The Spurs got all up in the Kings’ grillz last night and are heading back to Sacramento to try and close it out in Game 6.
There are many reasons for the San Antonio victory, not the least of which is whatever Bonzi Wells is doing in that picture. Has there ever been something we had less of a need to Photoshop? (Okay, maybe this one.)
Anyway, Manu Ginolbli shaved his beard before the tip, and while that might have willed the Spurs to victory, the real story for us is still Bonzi Wells, who put up 40 and has been unstoppable all series long.
His 12.3-rebound average is the league’s best this postseason. Wells said he’s just being Bonzi.
“I just try to hustle – that’s all I can really do,” he said. “We’ve got so many other guys that are so much better than I, and I just try to fit in and get in where I can. Make the hustle plays, the little things that guys may not want to do.”
Kings coach Rick Adelman said simply: “He’s just been a monster. They have a hard time guarding him. He’s quick, he’s aggressive, he’s strong. He’s just been spectacular.”
Seriously, we’d love to get more into the game, or even that Bonzi Wells happens to conveniently be a free agent this summer, but what the fuck is he doing in that picture?
It’s not like he’s going for Tony and accidentally threw his arm wildly in the wrong direction. He’s clearly facing Kenny Thomas and trying to shut his mouth. Does Kenny know something the rest of us don’t? Was he about to reveal some dark Wellsian secret at a crucial moment of the game?
Even his face is like “What the hell are you doing? I give! I give! I won’t say anything!”
(In case you were wondering – yes, we’re following the nationwide trend of shortselling San Antonio by writing favorably about a team they just beat instead of the Spurs themselves.)

All I can say is, I hope that the Mavs steamroll the Spurs. I don’t wanna see them win again and see Duncan get the MVP again. I don’t wanna see them even make the conference finals. I think everyone is sick of the Spurs period. Everyone knows that the Pistons gave them that title last year!
And that ends my rant of hating on the Spurs.
Fuck the spurs.
fuck bonzi wells. he was worn out his welcome for every team he has played for.
Not the Kings. WE Not the Kings. WE
