We have officially crossed the Rubicon of political psychosis.
With the San Antonio Spurs and New York Knicks squaring off, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott went completely rogue and dropped a digital war crime on New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s timeline.
The man posted a fully commissioned, AI-generated fever dream of himself catching Vince Carter air in a Spurs uniform just to put Hochul in a body bag at the rim.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON’T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
It’s deranged, aggressively disrespectful, and pure car-wreck appeal.
You physically cannot look away.
Abbott paired the high-flying graphic with a caption that read, “Spurs about to dunk on Knicks like Texas has been dunking on New York. Go Spurs Go.”

While the alien emoji was a nod to Spurs phenom Victor Wembanyama, the post itself was a direct response to Hochul committing one of the most heinous sports blunders in recent memory.
In an attempt to take a swipe at President Donald Trump’s New York sports credentials ahead of the Finals action between the Spurs and Knicks, Hochul tried to challenge Trump’s hoops knowledge during a news conference.

“I’d ask him to name the starting lineup of the 1993 championship team and see how he does,” Hochul told reporters with total confidence.
There was just one massive problem with the Democratic governor’s routine.
The 1993 Knicks did not win a championship.

Patrick Ewing and company were famously eliminated by Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference Finals.
The Knicks haven’t actually hoisted a trophy since 1973, a painful reality that virtually any New York sports fan could tell you.
Critics pointed out that Hochul invented a fictional championship ring just to score a cheap political point against Trump.
Naturally, Abbott saw the massive basketball brick from his New York counterpart and decided to run the fast break.
Hochul practically served the chance for a poster moment on a silver platter.
