Congratulations to the 2025 NBA Champion Oklahoma City Thunder! 🏆

Do you not remember how much flopping Karl Malone and Reggie Miller did in that era? This is not new to the NBA. Hell, SGA doesn’t shoot a lot of FTs for MVP caliber players over the last 35 years.

SGA has led the league in drives per game for 5 straight seasons. Guys who play in the paint have always gotten more fouls called & get more FTs. Curry shot 62.2% of his shots from 3-pt range so he isn’t in the paint to get fouled much.

Mussatto: Why Kenrich Williams and OKC Thunder were a basketball match at first sight Longtime Thunder role player Kenrich Williams didn’t want to be anywhere but Oklahoma City, even in a rebuild. Now, he's a win from a title.

“We love Kenny around here.”

Kenrich Williams, the third longest-tenured Thunder, was a an integral part of the rebuild. Now he’s on the cusp of a championship.

Here’s what Kenny Hustle means to OKC:

The Great Egg Heist: 280,000 eggs disappeared from America’s top producer. Then came a ransom note. As prices skyrocketed, and egg giant Cal-Maine raked in record profits, the company was hit by one of the biggest egg thefts in history.

With prices soaring, eggs have been reported stolen from porches and farm stands. At one point, federal agents at the border were seizing eggs more often than fentanyl.

Then, earlier this year, a Maryland sheriff’s office learned about a $100,000 egg heist — complete with a ransom note.

Trump administration slapped with ‘impoundment’ violation for freezing library, museum funding The Government Accountability Office’s conclusion follows a similar finding last month for a different pot of cash.

You must have hated watching the NBA the eras of Jordan, Kobe, Karl Malone, Reggie Miller, Dirk and those other classic foul-baiters. In other words, you’ve always hated the NBA because this is nothing new.

The Thunder were called for 9 fouls in the 4th quarter of Game 4, of which Shai was called for 3 of those. That’s a weird way to rig a game.

The 1996 did not have a chance to have a perfect/undefeated postseason by the time they reached the NBA Finals. They lost Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals to the Knicks.

The Secret Behind The Thunder's Free Throw Numbers The Thunder took Game 4 in Indiana, but controversy surrounds the team due to their free throws. Is this really true though?

Some fans said Game 4 of the NBA Finals “was rigged,” and the Thunder only won because of free throws. Is this true, or are fans embellishing the number of foul calls OKC gets?

Thunder were called for 9 fouls in the 4th quarter of them game, 3 of them on Shai. Strange way to “fix” a game…

“I Have Lost Everything”: The Toll of Cities’ Homeless Sweeps Cities often take belongings — including important documents and irreplaceable mementos — when they conduct sweeps of homeless encampments. ProPublica gave notecards to people across the country so…

We asked people who lived in homeless encampments that were cleared out in city “sweeps” to write about what object was the hardest for them to lose.

“They took my baby pictures and my moms obituaries,” a 29-year-old in California wrote.

Column | Have you received scam texts about an unpaid toll? You are not alone. In 2024, consumers reported losing $470 million to scams that started with text messages, according to the FTC — a fivefold jump since 2020.

Have you also been receiving those scam texts about an unpaid toll? What about the ones offering you a job that seems too good to be true? Text scams are the cockroaches of our digital lives. They just won't die. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

White House MAHA Report may have garbled science by using AI, experts say The report, led by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., was intended to address the reasons for the decline in Americans’ life expectancy.

Some of the citations in the White House’s sweeping “MAHA Report” appear to have been generated using artificial intelligence, resulting in numerous garbled scientific references and invented studies, AI experts said Thursday.

'Pretty frustrated': Stitt video leads lawmakers to override extra vetoes to end session With 68 vetoes to consider overriding, the Oklahoma Legislature stalled for 5 hours May 29, 2025, with an open vote on session's final day.
