Go back in time and play better for the first half of the season



A look at who's guarded by better defenders between Luka and SGA. Luka has had to deal with better screen navigators

This is cap but 70% of MVPs lead in atleast 1 major stat shai dog shit

SGA 35-9-15 (14/21 FG, 4/4 FT), 0 TOV

Fun fact: Shai can miss 175 shots in a row and he would still have a higher FG% than Luka. Market says SGA has a 92% chance of winning MVP on @Novig

Was told it’s all “volume” “inefficient” but when one dude can’t coast on 14 FGA and has to put up shots he’s actually less efficient hmmmm




I think the under looked part of efficiency is efficiency of teammates shots. Luka takes and makes tough shots but creates the best quality looks for his teammates. The gap between eFG% on passes by Luka(61.1%) & SGA (57.4%) is bigger than the gap in their shooting efficiency.



Lakers: 5-7 in Dec 9-7 in Jan 6-6 in Feb Idc what your numbers are… that’s not MVP

LAL when Luka doesn’t play: • 6-6 record • -5.7 NetRTG (would be ranked last in the NBA) OKC when Shai doesn’t play: • 8-4 record • +5.9 NetRTG (6th in the NBA) Bench Depth: Thunder: -Ajay, Caso, Joe, Wiggins, Caruso, McCain, Kenrich Lakers: -Rui, LaRavia, Kennard, Hayes


“But SGA is winning without Jalen” “SGA makes OKC so much better” 1) OKC is better without Jalen J-dub on: +8.6 J-dub off: +12.6 2) I can plug Ajay instead of SGA and OKC is better Ajay on/SGA off: +13.2 SGA on/Ajay off: +13.0 OKC is good regardless of Shai. That’s not MVP

Shai’s 2 year run of being the best guard ITL reminiscent of Hakeem when MJ retired. The real Luka is back again, Preciate yall tho Shai fc for keeping the seat warm
