If playoff James Harden got SGA's whistle, then he has a ring or two by now.

@TMAnderson10 I don't know why you're tagging me in this as if I have said SGA is the only player who flops and not consistently told people I think he at least tries to score most times

Hardwood Paroxysm@HPbasketball·
Thoughts on officiating: - Fans always feel their team gets screwed, but universally, everyone watching OKC feels like something is off in how they're officiated. That matters. It just does. OKC Fans will claim jealousy or hate because the alternative is untenable for them. But there is a genuine feeling among all fans that the disparity in SGA's whistle to their defensive whistle is incongruous - The next step is the "So you think the league is rigging for a small market team?" and I understand the consequential thinking, but I think it's healthier to just focus on the problem. I think there's no grand conspiracy but there IS an incongruity in officiating. - Last year, we had an awesome first round, in which the players were openly pleading to be less physical because they felt it was dangerous. So now we've gotten a regular-season whistle. And it sucks. As fans, we hate it. I don't know what that balance should be because it's not my body on the line, but it sure feels like there's a way to have a physical contact sport set of officiating perameters that also deters dangerous play - Finch was campaigning to try and politic a win, but he also wasn't wrong when before Game 2 he made the point that the call should be based on what happens at point of contact and not what happens afterward (flop/flail/fall). The contact is what needs to matter and not the sell job after it. - Shai is genuinely difficult to officiate because he IS incredible at driving and controlling where he goes to challenge direct path defense. It's a genuine skill he has. - He also sells because otherwise he doesn't get the call. This is maybe the biggest problem of all: if you legitimately create the contact but don't performatively exagerate it, you will not be rewarded. That's a problem. - We always find something to say is a problem with the NBA, and more so in the playoffs when it's in the spotlight. But this is a genuijne issue for watchability. Fans don't want this. The league needs to listen.

@BenProven @dubythechef @RooshWilliams Harden was using tricks and tactics that got outlawed by the NBA. SGA isn’t. Thats the said reality yall don’t want to admit. But its okay, pull out the conspiracies instead lol

@jaycee9987 @MarzTalksSports Not when you’re sending a box and 1 at him lmfaooo… “near identical” lol But I get why you want to knock him down a notch after what he’s done to your team and star these last couple years

@kennyfromock @MarzTalksSports He wasn’t, too inconsistent for an actual GREAT series. Those first round opponents>25 denver defensively. Jokic played against an all-time great defense and still was able to put up near identical scoring numbers lol

I think theres 2 main reasons the 'playoff dropper' tag has not been attributed to SGA. 1) Hes won 2) People inherently believe that his playstyle is designed to be resilient in the PS and not subject to volatility so they believe the evidence to the contrary is coincidental

@kennyfromock @MarzTalksSports he deserves MJ comps because he did well(not even GREAT) against a team that ranked 21st in defense, with 0 depth, 0 elite poa defenders and were badly injured? I guess lol

@MarzTalksSports 3. He’s only had 2 playoff runs as a star and his worst series were against bad first round opponents, while arguably his best were against the best teams in nuggets/mavs

@wavygravy39 @davisdilanchian @favelaoverlord If it’s pretty simple then how come there are numerous studies about 1.) people naturally being hungrier than others and 2.) people naturally having much slower metabolisms even at the same height/weight/activity level?

@HPbasketball 1. Offensively, there is one true star. JDub/ Chet aren’t exactly Wade, Klay, Russ, Kobe, etc. offensively 2. They’ve only had 1 true playoff run. The 2015 Warriors had similar accusations 3. Social media narratives others have touched on.

I'm really interested by the idea that the Thunder are, objectively, an All-Time team. Wins. Point Differential. Defense. Defense with Offensive Capability. Led by MVP. Depth. Coaching. Culture. Execution. But they do not feel like the all-time great teams *to me* and I do not know why. (Thunder fans, I get they fell like that to you and that people SHOULD view them that way. Read the first part again.) If you're not a Thunder fan, does OKC feel like an all-time great team on par with Warriors 2016, 2017, or say, Heat 2012 (who were objectively much worse than OKC), OKC 2014, 01 Lakers, etc? If not, why not?

Ty@balldontTy·
genuinely confused conversation was SGA v Luka a week ago, debating if Luka had enough time to catch SGA. Wemby gives some impassioned speech at the podium on why he should be MVP & media goes “you know what, YUP!” now Wemby jumps 3 spots & sits at the top? huh?

@HouseOfJordans @AndrewDBailey Using on/off lik that is just wrong too - which is why you should use DEPM which adds teammate context … and idek why you’re cherry picking bball index when their catch all stats think SGA is better overall LMAO.

@HouseOfJordans @AndrewDBailey I’ve never seen this level of misreprentation of statistics lol. expected is based on career since a rookie. Actual means the results of this season. Luka’s actual OEPM and expected are nearly identical. Shai’s actual OEPM is higher because Luka was a better young player
