•Everyone loved your offseason.
•You were 50/50 to make the playoffs.
•You were a favorite of >3 in EVERY playoff game, including the biggest road favorite in a Conference Championship in NFL history.
This is just revisionist history to cope with finally being an underdog, KW

The Patriots lost the offseason. The Patriots won’t make the playoffs. The Patriots won’t win the AFC East The Patriots won’t stop Justin Herbert The Patriots won’t score on Houston. The Patriots can’t win in Denver. The Patriots have no chance in the Super Bowl. 🚪

@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS luka got hurt at the end of the wolves series, and if u don’t think being the second option to top 5 player jayson tatum gives you vastly improved coverages compared to top 2 player shai gilgeous alexander, well… lasik is not too expensive
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS Luka was fine when he was dominating the Wolves
Since when is the 2nd option not guarded?
English
Shai started the year without J-Dub and went 18-1. He would have Chet in this scenario because Jaylen has Derrick White. And honestly, given OKC’s depth, yea, I’m confident SGA would be doing this. They have the youth to step up like Queta and Walsh and Minnot and Hugo have.

“If Shai lost Jalen Williams, Chet Holmgren, Isaiah Hartenstein, and Alex Caruso, would he be doing what Jaylen Brown is? That’s why JB is the MVP” -@Scalabrine 🗣️🗣️🗣️
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS barely guarded an injured version of luka and was the 2nd option essentially every game being guarded by nobody
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS He shot the ball better while guarding one of the best offensive players in the league.
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS if you’re insinuating jaylen brown was even comparable to shai in his finals then this conversation shouldn’t continue
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS He was 8 of 27 in game 7, with Haliburton headed for surgery
For the finals, he shot 44% fgp, 24% 3p%
He wasn't very good in the finals
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS 😂 game 4 wcf he had a near 40 point triple double
game 4 finals he dragged the thunder back in a must win on his own
this is likely rage bait and u got me
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS He's never had a Jordan moment. That's his problem
He was fairly mediocre in last years playoffs. Bad in the finals.
I thought after SA beat them the 1st time, we might see a revenge game from him.
But either
1. He's not built that way
Or
2. He just lacks the talent.
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS again, even jordan didn’t have believers and now they’re stuck on their rocking chair telling people how they swore penny hardaway was better, get lasik and improve ur basketball acumen so u don’t sound like an idiot to the next generation
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS I'm not a huge Shai believer.
I got a good look at him in the finals and was completely underwhelmed.
They might've lost that series had Haliburton stayed healthy.
He's super efficient in the regular season but doesn't dominate in the playoffs
JB could shoot 57% ts%
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS but jb won’t be doing this in like 2 weeks lol, this is a very nice purple patch for a borderline top 15 player in the league, shais top 2 at worst and is chasing much higher heights
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS You vastly underrated JB and the Thunder.
They have the best net rating in the league..
With Shai on the bench
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS my favorite stat because it shows who really watches the games and who doesn’t
when shai sits on the bench in the 4th quarter the team is also playing the other teams 3rd stringers, are our 3rd stringers outscoring other teams 3rd stringers? of course
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS switch them and okc struggles in the play in and the celtics win the championship lol, the difference between these two players is so vast its embarrassing ur caping this hard
this 10 game phase for jaylen brown is worse than shais entire season😭😭
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS Switch them and OKC still wins a title.
The Celtics get worse
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS you can tell ur grandkids about that insane season where jaylen brown almost beat cade cunningham for a spot on the mvp podium then lol
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS That's what would happen, it would just be wrong.
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS that’s fine lol the reality in the real world with people who have a say in this is that assuming jokic doesn’t qualify shai would likely win unanimously and jaylen brown would get a couple sick 3rd place votes which is a great achievement
English
@otdpodd @SamQuinnCBS I think it should be a dead heat right now
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS i don’t understand this rationale jaylen brown has a lower true shooting percentage than shais raw midrange percentage they’re just not comparable players right now
English
@SamQuinnCBS How is Shai having a better one? Yes, he's more efficient, but he doesn't carry the load that JB carries.
Shai, has WAY more talent around him and he doesn't have to play on D the way JB does.
Shai can't guard guys like Luka and Kawhi.
English
This is my least favorite part of the MVP race every year. We should be able to praise awesome seasons without putting down guys having better ones. SGA, if he stays healthy, is going to win MVP and deserve it. That doesn’t take away from the monster season Jaylen Brown has had.
Sam Quinn@SamQuinnCBS
Shai started the year without J-Dub and went 18-1. He would have Chet in this scenario because Jaylen has Derrick White. And honestly, given OKC’s depth, yea, I’m confident SGA would be doing this. They have the youth to step up like Queta and Walsh and Minnot and Hugo have.
English
@xaviercross1971 @SamQuinnCBS there is no situation where both shai and jaylen brown are in the league and meet the minimum game requirement that jaylen brown will ever win an mvp
English
@SamQuinnCBS You said a while back that if Shai got hurt, Brown would be the MVP. And you made it sound like that would be terrible.
If Brown and the Celtics keep this up, JB may be the MVP anyway.
English
@KevinOConnor how deep does the convo go, like we know it’s shai but let’s give him a potential 3rd place vote? like what are we doin
English
30/6/5 with good defense leading a 22-12 Celtics team that many thought would be in the lottery. Yeah, Jaylen Brown belongs in the MVP convo.
English

@kaznomar @VKonch421 @SwipaCam i’m in full agreement jokic didn’t have a peer from 2020-2024, that changed at the end of 2024 when shai made a late charge at mvp, changed last year when he was better than him, and changed this year when he was ahead in a lot of nuggets fan’ mvp race PRE JOKIC INJURY!
English
@otdpodd @VKonch421 @SwipaCam SGA had a top 3 AT season for a guard last year and improved. He’s been close to top 2-3 the past 3-4 years. There is honesty in saying Lebron has never been less than Kobe since 2008. The same way Jokic hasn’t had a peer since post 2020. Don’t be late to appreciate greatness.
English
There is quite literally no world where SGA wins player of the month over Jokic based on NBA basketball.
Like we don’t have to do this nonsense.
We legit just saw Jokic have B2B 56/16/15 and 34/21/12 games and averaging 31/12/11 on 68% TS and lead the NBA in plus/minus for the month.

The @Kia NBA Players of the Month for December! West: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (@okcthunder) East: Jalen Brunson (@nyknicks)
English
@kaznomar @VKonch421 @SwipaCam i think it’s a very respectable opinion for you to think jokic is better than shai, to act like it’s not a respectable opinion to think the opposite is where the honesty is lost
English
@VKonch421 @otdpodd @SwipaCam Want an honest and thoughtful answer or you’re already closed off? Not talking mvps or accolades or team success, just player to player shai is not better than Jokic. If you will not concede this it will be very hard to have an honest, unbiased, no agenda conversation.
English
@VKonch421 @SwipaCam i’m actually so intrigued like the NBA has been hyping up jokic more than most other players in the league, the media loves him even tho he’s the only 3x mvp with only 1 chip, he doesnt rly get any criticism for his shortcomings, yet they want more
English
@SamQuinnCBS pj washington was left open because he was one of the worst corner three point shooters in the league and he beat us on a shot we gave him, not because luka was creating it lol what did you even watch the series?
English
PJ Washington made 39 shots in that series, and 34 of them were assisted. That's an assisted field goal rate of 87.2%, highest rate on the team in that series aside from the garbage time guys.
Washington made the shots. They were open because OKC threw everything at Luka.
Craig Milkowski@CraigMilkowski
@SamQuinnCBS PJ Washington was the last player to beat OKC in a series. 🤷♂️
