Does the NBA have to address its flopping problem? Rachel breaks down the controversial Spurs vs Thunder NBA Cup semifinal, including the viral Alex Caruso–Wemby clip, the Shai Gilgeous-Alexander “kick-out” foul on Dylan Harper, and whether OKC are brilliant at manipulating the rules… or just flopping their way to the line.

Rachel also reacts to Victor Wembanyama’s “ethical basketball” comments, clears up what he really meant, and compares the Spurs’ old-school, team-first style to the Thunder’s whistle-heavy reputation. Plus, Rachel brings in what Dwyane Wade and Jaylen Brown have said about flopping, and how Adam Silver is publicly acknowledging that the league may have overcorrected in favor of offense and needs more physical defense back in the game.

To close things out, Rachel previews the NBA Cup Final: San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks in Las Vegas!

We also break down Team USA’s training camp scrimmage highlights including Paige Bueckers’ confidence, Angel Reese’s physicality, Aaliyah Boston’s expanding offensive game, Chelsea Gray’s ridiculous playmaking, and how the “young & turned squad” stacked up vs. the veterans.

In today’s episode of the Courtside Club, Rachel breaks down the wild NBA Cup semifinal between the San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder, where the Spurs snapped OKC’s 16-game win streak with a 111–109 win.

We breakdown the game:

- Victor Wembanyama’s first game back after a 12-game calf injury absence

- Wemby vs Chet Holmgren: who really won the matchup (box score + impact)

- Why the Spurs looked like two completely different teams with and without Wemby on the floor

- Wemby’s “pure and ethical basketball” quote and why it felt like a shot at OKC 👀

- The controversial foul on Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s late-game jumper and the “kicking the legs out” debate

- How the Spurs defended SGA differently (giving him space, avoiding foul-baiting, etc.)

- Huge nights from Devin Vassell, Stephon Castle, and Dylan Harper and why this young Spurs core looks legit

- Why this Spurs vs Thunder matchup already feels like a real Western Conference rivalry

- A quick look ahead to the NBA Cup Final vs the New York Knicks and why the Western Conference has been must-watch
