Absolutely no justification to bump Jokic out of the #1 spot... zero!!! Shai is getting a lot of credit for playing on the best team in two decades, and the other are getting lambasted for being on lower quality teams. This is a major black-eye for The Ringer!!! They’ve capitulated to the NBA establishment... and likely sponsors!!!

For the first time in over 3 years, The Ringer has a new player at #1 on their Top 100 Players list:

Locked up in Single Coverage by a Center for Game 🔥🔥
Ty@balldontTy
Look at these defenses man. No doubles, no blitzes. gets the easy switch onto his iso targets w/out any resistance. no stacked defensive sets or pressure. just straight up single coverage. as I’ve said. carefree hoops for SGA. simplest superstar role in the association.

@roxyrashed3 @TheHoopCentral Nah wat he is doing is ball hogging and shot chucking mans shot damnnear 30 shots wit only 4 assists tell ya boi to stop being a ball hogging and pass the ball 😂

35 MINUTES

Andy, your PPG for SGA is significantly off. And the reason his TO is so low is because he never passes the ball and he protected by the refs when he handles it... so a little tough to have a hight TO rate. But most casual take these polls so I’ll leave it at that. I won’t even mention the difference in overall team quality!!!

Player A is 2025-26 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Player B is 2025-26 Luka Dončić.

SGA put on a historic performance in OKC's win ⛈️ 🏀 40 PTS 🏀 7 REB 🏀 11 AST 🏀 16-19 FGM He joins Wilt Chamberlain (3x) as the only players in NBA history to total 40+ PTS, 10+ AST, and 5+ REB in a game on at least 80% shooting from the field 🤯

@realtalkejlt I don't. The other players do so much, it makes it easier for him.
He doesn't guard the best player on the other teams. His teammates do that, most of his energy is on the offensive end. He also counts his numbers. This is why most times he scores 30 on the dot.

@RFreemyer @FickDan @SwipaCam You’re looking at overall but lately it’s a different story. It has shown in the most recent games for both teams honestly.
English
@rdsxjames @FickDan @SwipaCam They absolutely are not lol. Denver is a -2 NET without Jokić this season, OKC is a +9.5 without SGA.
English
@RFreemyer @FickDan @SwipaCam They are. Mainly due to them being very good on offense as a team and can play good defense where as okc is an all time defense but the offense can stall at times
English
@RyB_311 They are😂😂😂 just because Shai ball hogs for more flop opps doesn't mean that roster isn't fuckin absurd
English
Shai got 42 with 0 TOVs and OKC fighting for their life in OT with the Jazz ppl will look u dead in the eye and say that’s a 50 win team without him
English
🏕 retweetledi
in mvp convos with players with a lower true shooting than shais 2p%💔💔

“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
@SaiyanShinobi64 @twowayshai Better defense. Way more efficient. Can score relatively the same as Luka on way better efficiency. Simple
English
@twowayshai I just don’t understand what SGA does that makes him so much better than Luka if Luka averages more points rebounds and assists 😂 the math just ain’t mathing
English
He just isn’t on the level of Jokic/Shai or Giannis man. The PRA doesn’t fool anyone these days
Kalshi Sports@KalshiSports
Luka Doncic: • 57% chance to lead NBA in Points • 4th in NBA in Assists • Top-25 in Rebounds What will he need to do to win MVP?
English
Unanimous MVP after losing 3x in a row to the same team in 12 days on three different courts. Blownout in 2 of those games btw lol.
Steph just had to hit the most iconic shot in regular season history but ya'll putting bum ass Shai in these talks after he got mollywhopped and sonned by Wemby.
Chet in therapy right now btw
English
With the 65 game rule set in place, the real question is will Shai become the second unanimous MVP in NBA history
Kalshi Sports@KalshiSports
NEW: With Jokic’s injury, the NBA MVP Race on Kalshi has shaken up: 77% — Shai Gilgeous-Alexander 13% — Luka Doncic 5% — Victor Wembanyama 4% — Jalen Brunson 3% — Cade Cunningham

The Thunder are 1-2 since I tweeted this
zac@shaisprint
How they’re going to talk about the Portland Trail Blazers team that beat the 81-1 Thunder

How many times in his career has JDub elevated to take pressure off of Shai?
2-3 times?
