@405Fan @DickCarlisle All of Shai’s advance stat are helped by the best team in the last 3 decades, and mostly the PLATINUM WHISTLE that he has... so, just stay quiet and observe real ball... not flopping and d foul baiting shit!

Nobody can give a good reason as to why SGA is the MVP besides “SGA’s team is better.” Since when was that the criteria for MVP?

@dgv1133 @DickCarlisle Doncic has better counting stats Shai has better advanced stats. Advanced stats usually tell more of the story

@DickCarlisle Why is everyone in sports media and writers afraid to point out this simple fact... SGA is on the best team, by far! I think if they were to admit this it would take away from their narrative to push him for another gifted MVP!

@DickCarlisle Shai is more efficient is a thing

@EldrickWoods13 Well the last 2 games he played were the only two all year he had a fully functioning shooting hand. How did that look for him?

@405Fan "Jalen Williams" makes them worse, we've all seen the numbers

Remember when teams were excited because OKC had like the 2nd hardest schedule after the All-Star break? Well they're 13-1 since the break (best in the NBA) and the 1 loss Shai/Dub/Chet/IH/Ajay and Caruso all sat. Oh and they're about to get their 2nd best player back.

@metalhead684 Yeah it's bc of the refs lol

@405Fan Easy to do when the refs carry

@NBA__Courtside It is the greatest sports show ever and it's awesome that they hate on the Lakers. That makes the show better

Nick Wright says he wishes the Inside the NBA crew actually enjoyed basketball 👀 “It might be the greatest sports show ever. With that said, I wish it felt like they enjoyed basketball more. Before the Lakers Nuggets game, Chuck saying ‘I hope the Lakers lose’ because he was angry talk shows would take the Lakers seriously. If they’re the 3 seed in the west are people allowed to take them a little serious? Then after the game they win and Austin making that unbelievable play and Luka game winner, and Shaq said ‘good teams don’t need that’ like what are we doing? You see more in the NBA of the guys saying their era was better. You don’t see Terry Bradshaw and Howie Long on Fox NFL pre game being like ‘none of these guys could cut it in the 70s or 80s!” (Via @WhatsWrightShow)

@texaskaze OKC has the best record since October which is really all that matters

@405Fan Spurs have the best record since February 1st - 19-2 try again

@NBASilentScout A smart one

@405Fan Bio: Shooting free throws is a good thing. Give them all to us. Damn a corny Thunder fan spotted

@JustEsBaraheni We would lose a month of hoops

The NBA playoffs could start now, and we would lose nothing by missing out on a month of hoops.

@SteveThunderfan @Logmey92 If JDub will ever come back and we have good shooting JDub back this team is a decent amount better than last year. We may need it to be too to get through the Spurs

We’ve just never had a player like Jared McCain before. The 3pt rate, the zippiness. For him to be an ultimate vibesman too? Crazy. Presti talked a couple years ago about not buying the paint until you pick the house, it’s like he just installed a giant waterslide on the pool.

@SpursReporter He's playing 10 mpg

Stop what you’re doing and look at this new leaderboard. Carter Bryant is now ranked #1 in the NBA in DFG% (45.4%), ahead of names like Chet Holmgren (47.9%) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (49.0%). That’s not just impressive. It means even when teams think they’ve avoided Victor Wembanyama, they’re running straight into another defensive problem. Mitch Johnson and Sean Sweeney aren't just building the leagues best defense. They building a no-fly zone. 🧱🚫🏀

Just watch the Nets and Wizards and tell me we want to add teams?

@theblockspot lol no

Jaylen Brown was decent. Then Jaylen Brown was solid. Then Jaylen Brown was good. Then Jaylen Brown was very good. Then Jaylen Brown was great. Then Jaylen Brown was a star. Then Jaylen Brown was a superstar. Jaylen Brown is now one thing only. The MVP of the whole damn league.

@CoreyB08 FYI free throws are a good thing

Just a reminder Jaylen most FTs in a game before tonight was 16 and he’s done it 3x SGA last 4 seasons has 27 games of 16+ FT attempts. Brown 20+ FTA games: 1 SGA 20+ FTA games: 4 Jaylen has played in 145 more games

@BrickCenter_ @Carson_OKC It was never bad to draw fouls. Being able to draw fouls is a necessary skill

Jaylen Brown went from complaining about SGA... To becoming a foul baiter. He has TEN free throws in the FIRST QUARTER 😭

@MugiHoops He's not

If Wemby takes the spurs from 34 wins to 60 in the span of two seasons, being the most impactful player in the world, a historically great defender and a top 7 offensive player on the planet, he’s surely the MVP.

@JahlilWill Well OKC has lost one game since the all star break and it was with Shai/Dub/Chet/Ajay Mitchell/Hartenstein and Caruso out

Lose one game by 3 points with Victor Wembanyama out and lose your spot atop the power rankings. It’s a cold world.

@RunItBackFDTV @MichelleDBeadle @ChandlerParsons @TeamLou23 He can't do what Shai does. It has nothing to do with the flopping either

Chandler Parsons says Jaylen Brown should take a page out of SGA's book, not criticize his foul baiting 🗣️ "You have to adjust and adapt to it or you're gonna miss this huge aspect of where you can get easy buckets." @MichelleDBeadle | @ChandlerParsons | @TeamLou23

@KalshiHoops Well the Thunder were tanking for some of that.
