OVO-Jireh

Sort of a stretch but he also scored a 3 with 1:18 left against the Knicks, they won 103-100 after that. Honestly I had Ant as CPOY but after this 3 game stretch I think it might be SGA. Either way it’s close and will be determined by how they play the rest of the season

Either way they fumbled. Why weren’t they playing him if he was this good? Even if it was just get up his trade value, makes zero sense. 76ers routinely make trash decisions its embarrassing.

Apparently it was more important to play Quintin Grimes over the ROY front runner before getting hurt. Even if they wanted to trade him why send him to the best team in the league if you aren’t getting a haul back? Morey signed our death warrant for the 24th pick 💔💔💔

the david adelman gambit. Nuggets gets a 10 point game early. Time for Jokic and 4 guards for 7 minute straight. 10-point lead shrinks to 3. Sits Jokic for 6 whole minutes no matter how the game is going. The opposing team has a 6-point lead + possession and Jokic is cold. Nuggets start the 3rd quarter strong, make it a close game. David Adleman employs the 4 guard gambit yet again. Rinse and repeat

at least he changed it up at the end today

I don’t think he’s fit to be a head coach.

After Gordon had 19 in the first 7 minutes he only scored 4 points the rest of the game. Obviously the OKC defense adapted, but they can only do so much to adapt when none of their players can consistently guard Jokic and Gordon in the paint. Those two should’ve been feasting the entire game

Is current SGA the most over qualified player ever to not be considered by most to be the best in the league? About to be back to back MVP, always gives belt to ass to his peers in the regular season and playoffs. It’s like he has to achieve 3x as much as others to get anywhere near the respect.

In contention. The league is just crazily good.

Other contenders: Steph was not the consensus best player after winning back to back MVPs, one of them unanimously. And making back to back finals, and he also should have had a finals MVP in 15.

I think to start 96 most people probably said MJ was the best player. In the 2 years before that Hakeem won 2 finals MVPs, one in what was statistically the hardest playoff run ever, also won an MVP, and a DPOTY.

Jokic was incredible too

That loss was on Jamal Murray btw. Stop ballhogging and throwingg away posessions against OKC. He has been averaging 22 points on 50% TS fo two straight playoffs but no one wants to put any blame on him

I was one of the few that wanted Mike out of Denver for his own good (thankfully he’s now with Jordi and has grown as a player under him—always gonna appreciate that). But last year’s Denver roster was just two bench players away from being title favorite. Keep Russ then get THJ on a min and maybe give Zeke more reps or pick up a big by deadline. That would be a really really good team. Again, Russ was amazing on the Nuggets. What a dumb move by the Nuggets FO. I’m still mad about it lol.

Cam needs to get his confidence back. I really liked him when he’s with the Suns so hopefully he finds his game back. He’s not Mike though. Skillset so different. The team has to help him find his place. He’s lost right now and the guy is very sensitive.

Lastly on SGA—there’s something I really like about him as a player. He’s sooo disciplined. Made a big time shot and shift focus on defense immediately (instructing his teammates that were celebrating his buckets to get in position as well). What a leader. Congrats.

This might be the most complete game I’ve ever seen from Shai. His playmaking is just on another level this year. And ZERO turnovers. Just unreal.

What a banger. Definitely one of the best games of the season.

Adelman challenging that obvious foul call really hurt us. Coulda played the foul game with that timeout. But honestly this is the much more entertaining ending even though it sucks to lose.

The Oklahoma City Thunder (51-15) defeat the Denver Nuggets (39-26), 129-126 despite being down 3 starters and SGA leads the way with 35/9/15
