In the long arc of championship seasons, there are nights when a team refuses to let its story end — and Thursday in San Antonio was one of those nights. The Spurs dismantled the Thunder 118-91 in Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals, with Victor Wembanyama embodying the kind of complete, purposeful performance that separates contenders from pretenders. What was once an elimination game is now a Game 7 in Oklahoma City, where one franchise will earn the right to write the next chapter of its legacy against the New York Knicks.
