NBA Finals Way Better When Some Aussie Is Somehow In The Mix

As a flood of Knicks vs Spurs content starts infiltrating the social feeds of Australian sports fans, one fact is becoming increasingly clearer.

The NBA finals are better with an Aussie.

This story comes as many young suburban males race to brush up on their knowledge of NBA storylines, on the eve of the Spurs playing a must win game five in San Antonio, Texas.

And while many debate whether it was cool, or super lame to see the sidelines of Madison Square Garden filled with the likes of Ben Stiller, Taylor Swift and Timothée Chalamet, all can agree that this finals series needs some random skillful freak that heralds from a small regional town in Australia.

“I could get behind the Spurs so much more if they still had Patty Thrills aye…” mused Dyson Giddey, a 28 year old accountant who’s tried to reignite his passion for basketball this week.

“Like, it’s just funnier when there’s all these college superstars and Hollywood heroes hanging around the court, and then one mad dog from Canberra.”

“That’s when it’s a real spectacle!”

With the Knicks destined to lose game five to set up an opportunity to win it in six back home in New York, all can agree it would be better if a Boomer was on the team.

“Remember when Delly did it with Cleveland, and we got to hear the commentators trip up over trying to pronounce Maryborough, Victoria.”

“And he’s there spurting bottles of champagne all over LeBron and Kyrie, two players that could probably buy every house in his home town and still have change to buy every car dealership in Ballarat.”

“Good times. Anyway, Go Knicks!”
