[Highlight] SGA buries a three to stop the bleeding
I really don’t gaf about what a lot of y’all say, this guy is mesmerizing to watch
If this 3 ball is real he basically has no weaknesses which is crazy
The pullup three is essentially the final piece to his overall game
He’s shooting over 40% on 5 attempts a game over a 22 game span on all step backs. I think it’s real
I feel like “over 40%” is actually underselling it. He’s up to 43.3% on 3s after tonight.
How dare they say “over 40%” instead of 43.3% 😂
Huh? I’m not saying “how dare they.” Just saying it’s even more impressive than just “over 40%,” which could mean like 40.5%. Last season, 43.3% would have been 6th in the league. 40.5% would have been 34th. It’s the difference between “really good” and “elite.”
been a sad couple of days for laker fans cut him some slack
Exactly - the wide open catch and shoot SGA threes are not happening out there
EXODIA, OBLITERATE!
There are a lot of people on this sub whose consumption of basketball is entirely on front page clips.
And SGA highlights never hit front page, only his lowlights lol.
Which is a shame because the way he gets to the rim or creates an open look for the midrange is so beautiful.
Reminds me of the great guards in Kobe and Wade but his own personality.
Tbf wade did not develop a jumper until his knees were cooked lol, I doubt anybody associates prime wade with his midrange game.
Not true at all lol. Wade had a great midrange game earlier in his career, he was just never a consistent 3 point shooter.
People form their opinions from social media then when they actually watch the games, they watch everything through that lens and their minds are already made up. The NBA really got the worst online fandom by far
His lowlights are literally being deleted on this sub lol

It’s up
Notice all of the comments talking about it being removed… Mods have been deleting his flops for a minute
And it got put back up soon after and was on the front page, like my comment said
And the fact remains: mods delete his lowlights.
Why are you saying “the fact remains” like I was the one to reply and tried to argue with your original point?
You replied to me and tried to argue with me for saying his lowlights are what hit the front page, like the mods taking it down for an hour somehow negates that?
I only said the mods delete his lowlights. You linking one of his lowlights (that was in fact previously deleted lol) doesn’t negate it. That’s literally it.
You’re acting like it’s complicated.
And again, you are forgetting you said that IN RESPONSE to me saying his lowlights hit the front page more than his highlights, not the other way around.
I’m not saying they have never deleted his lowlights, I’m saying that has nothing to do with my original comment that you replied to. I only linked that one specifically because its part of what you were referring to say it still got plenty of front page exposure.
That’s the sad thing about all these narratives man. We’re watching 4 absolutely insane players at their peaks. Enjoy it while you can.
yeah im glad im getting to see sga, chet, jdub and ajay mitchell
BELGIAN WAFFLE REPORTING FOR DUTY
lmao “narratives”? Like we’re making up he flops all the time in an ugly, unwatchable way? That he often seeks fouls instead of even attempting to score? Where do you think the “narratives” came from?
Does Curry have flopper narratives? Does Haliburton have foul bait narratives? Or is it just players like SGA, Brunson and Harden. Gimme a break. It will be the first line of his discussion until he stops.
Ok
See? You don’t have anything to say.
Insane jump again this year.
I get why people can be frustrated watching him play but anyone who says he is boring to watch ironically doesn’t watch him at all.
The pushoffs get to be a bit much sometimes, but he’s undeniably entertaining. Much more when I’m not watching my team play him in the Finals lol.
Nah man. I’m neutral and tried many times last season but you guys were really just insufferable to watch
That’s fine, they wouldn’t be great if they had no haters
I’m not a hater lol I think he and okc are great. But it’s a ridiculous claim and cope to say anyone calling yous boring hasn’t watched
He’s turned into a killer this year
The moment they think about doubling him the play before he makes them pay and delivers a beautiful hockey assist and then he follows it with this shit. We are watching peak basketball from this man
Now that he seems to have a reliable 3-ball, I dunno what you’re supposed to do.
Granted, it’s not like I knew what you were supposed to do before
Man he would be so much easier to hate if he weren’t so good. This shit sucks lmao.
The NBA needs a heel. I’ve embraced the hatred
Heart goes out to you from last years finals 💔
Yeah cause he wasn’t a killer last year when he won checks notes MVP, finals MVP, scoring title, championship and led his team to the best record in the NBA.
He turned into a deadlier killer this year
FTFY
I was gonna say lol wasn’t he a killer already? Now he’s a war criminal
What was he last year brother?
currently 5⁄6 from 3
SGA skipped a generation and has evolved into SGA the III
He was like “Alright that’s enough”
Is this the mamba mentality Kobe talks about?
Ya. Wemby has it too
His 3pt shooting has vastly improved
56% over the last 10 games
It makes me sick to my stomach how good he is. He’s better than Kobe ya’ll. Time to embrace it and stop being naive to the truth. Clippers with an all time fumble
He’s comparable to Kobe as of right now (play-style wise), let’s see where he’s at 5 years from now.
He’s way ahead of Kobe is pretty much every advanced efficiency metric
He’s not the defender Kobe was. He’s a good defender for sure but Kobe was first team all defense for multiple years. I think people discount that side of the game
Lock and load baby
cold blooded
He’s playing the game on rookie difficulty
That was ice cold ❄️ 😎
He’s so fucking good
yeah we arent losing again
He’s simply broken the game
SGA just said ‘alright, enough’ and saved the whole vibe
Kerr sold this game putting Podz back in
bricked 3 and turnover
That man is modern day Kobe. Witness the greatness for real.
MVP
Unbelievable performance in the clutch this game, he is playing unreal
Shai would rather die trying than be the reason his team loses
Clutch demon
Best in the league
my favourite player in the league man
No way you say that when ya’ll got an alien lol
I love wemby too no doubt but im always gonna be biased towards guards, kyrie was the reason i got into basketball lol. Very happy harper is already looking great so far in that aspect
Gotcha. Spurs looking better and better each year
His 3 ball in the clutch this season has been automatic
Fuck this man
In the past he has been more reserved.
Now the confidence is bleeding through.
It’s like when Neo in the Matrix becomes “the one”
The Maestro
God damn that’s cold blooded
Kobe.
This man is insane, the league is going to be in good hands when my generation finally hangs it up. He’s probably gonna be in the top 5 of all time just based off what we’ve seen so far.
He said: “ok, we’re done now”
He just simply never misses. God love to hate him, but his Netflix spotlight made me like him even more. Damn you SGA and you silly smooth buckets!
Nasty work
Had that super carry on the earlier one but this was clean. 🔫💦
50/40/90 season incoming. Also B2B mvp, conference finals mvp, finals mvp, champion 🐐
Kerr sold lmaoooo
Yea they are lights out but good lord are they fucking corny
Shot the same amount of free throws as the entire other team.
Generally when you lead the NBA in drives a game and don’t sit on the 3-point line like a fucking pussy like Golden State you get what we call “free throws”. That is when you are aggressive, get downhill and make the defense put hands on you.
Are you ok?
Watching a budding dynasty? I’m good my guy.
Yeah seems like you’re totally ok..
Budding dynasty struggles against wide open G-leaguers and rotation players putting up 25% from the floor.
21-1.
Defending NBA Champions.
How worried are you scale of 1 to 10 that the Thunder break your precious regular season wins record…and then go on to actually…you know….win.
They aren’t going to break the regular season wins record lol the Warriors started 24-0 and 29-1. Thunder have had the easiest start to the season in the league.
Soon.
Your team is going to lose to the Rockets in the WCF mark my words.
Yeah. I am terrified of Scrubguns athleticism and KDs corpse.
You’re mad about ………….. 10 free throws?
Not mad. Just posted a fact about the game.
Lmao
Why do you ask. Are you mad?
Not falling for this rage bait brother. Have a nice night ✌️
Hey man, you are the one that replied. Have a good one
