[All-Access] “I have answers to the test, I just have to see the questions first.” Shai-Gilgeous Alexander shares his thoughts on his game-winning 3-pointer against the Nuggets.
Why this dude always dressed like he’s plugged into the Matrix.
Shai Morpheus-Alexander
Do you think that’s a three that you’re guarding right now?
This your last chance. After this there is no turning back. You take the Clippers pill, the story ends. You wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to. You take the OKC pill, you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the NBA goes. Remember, all I’m offering is the truth. Nothing more.
Idk the answer but it seems awfully fitting
At this point I figure he (and the entire OKC team) is just rage baiting the circlejerk sub.
It’s always hilarious to me that circlejerkers think that anyone outside their little bizarre circle knows or cares about their existence
I swear to God, those guys really think that NBA players (I’m not talking about you KD) are reading all their shit, lol they don’t care
tf are you talking about? i watch them jerk every day and i havent seen a single one apart from the KD shit
I’m confused.
Are you referencing the circlejerkers, in the context that no one outside of the circle knows they exist?
Dude these players arent terminally online like you are. They are just genuinely corny guys. Its okay to accept that
Bro. Dub is the most terminally online player I’ve ever seen. Chet is a League player ffs. They’re corny, and it’s endearing to me as a fan and probably grating to others, but they are most definitely terminally online.
I mean they’re all young. It’s like Gen X being outside from sunrise until sunset, it’s a normal part of life.
We have multiple vloggers on the roster
sone of them are defintely very online
I personally don’t give a shit, I’ve just seen people legit getting angry on the jerk sub.
KD begs to differ
You’re generally correct but Dub is chronically online
They’ve quite literally talked about how they try and one up each other with ridiculous outfits before lol
Whole team has showed they can dress up clean as hell, the goofiest fits are all that get posted cuz this ain’t a fashion Reddit 😂
Chet said in an interview including Dub and Shai that they are mostly trolling each other with their fits, but not all of them of course.
It’s quite interesting how Jaylin Williams became a meme over there.
He’s too happy for them lol
It’s wild tho how every circlejerk sub inevitably devolves into actual hate thinly veiled as a joke, if u read the shit they say and respond to it’s always very angry and bitter
If anybody would do it it’d be them. With how young they are they’re absolutely scrolling Reddit lol
Because he is. How else do you explain this shit
Shai “I Know Basketball” Gilgeous-Alexander
A-Train looking ass
Dressed like a AEW jobber
Because it’s his personal style, just a form of expression.
Tbf its probably fun af dressing like a dork with all the money he has.
Most of the stuff he wears is probably free.
Looking like the NBA Travis Scott
He took the red pill.
His fur coat from the last press conference looked like he took both the blue pill and the red pill at the same time
Lmfao
is he not?
Wait, but for real though
Dominatrix
Cuz he’s lame lol
That game winner looked like he was in the Matrix. He’s like the NBA’s answer to prime Anderson Silva.
Dude looks like a Courser from Fallout 4
I thought he was R Kelly
Cause he is the chosen one.
I will respond to the police with this exact line next time they pull me over
‘I have answers to the road, I just gotta see the traffic first.’
Oh so you want to cheat then straight to jail pal
Dude thinks he’s the coolest MF to ever dribble a ball.
The Oklahomans have brigaded my comment lmfao.
They really can’t stand a single person not thinking he’s god
It’s insane, like prove our point about how much fun it is to live in Oklahoma by spending your weekday brigading a mild comment.
I had to take half a day off just so I could look at reddit and type a couple words🤓
They just said “he is”, let’s fight windmills here, lol
Is this coming from a fan for a team from Central Florida??
But what is a king to a god?
OKC fans should be able to distinguish basketball skill from corniness. SGA is an incredible basketball player. He’s also super corny. Lol
It’s a Canadian thing unfortunately. Him Dillion brooks Drake, super corny mfs. It’s Reddit so people won’t like it but they all act alike
Brooks is nowhere near as corny as sga and drake
aka Lebron syndrome lol
You’re welcome.
The Oklahomans with Rockets, Raptors, Blazers, and Lakers flairs?
circlejerker trying to be edgy in a reddit comments section, nothing to see folks
Edit: Dude’s whole profile is an anti-SGA circlejerk and he has the gall to talk about oklahomans having nothing better to do? Isnt there like, theme parks in Orlando? Why the fuck are you so dedicated to shitting on the MVP? Go to epcot you smelly fuck
Redditor complains MVP thinks he’s cool
When you have an MVP, Finals MVP, and a ring you’re allowed to think that way.
He’s the best player in the league. He can stunt all he wants
Because he is
*Travel with the ball
Shai gilgeous answerkey
“Just when they think they have the answers, I change the questions!”
-rowdy Roddy Shai
In college, i had a friend who looked forward to the midterm and final exams.
I was like: “You’re crazy. Why?”
She then told me: “it’s my time to shine! I worked so hard studying all term it’s finally time to show off what I’ve been practicing!”
I’m sure Shai feels the same way.
The only people who hate them are people who didn’t master the content
Don’t get me wrong I’ve been there but the times I really grinded all semester I agree it was actually kind of fun to ace a final or midterm
Y’all like to hate on guys for being corny but I think SGA takes the cake on actually corny but who cares when you’re a killaaa
Bro giving 2k type answers
That’s my man MP!
He really does sound like those canned in interviews in 2k lol
That’s how I feel about it too. He’s corny, but he’s good enough to get away with it
Agreed. I do find SGA to be a bit corny sometimes, but when you’re the best person on the planet at something (or you’re the 2nd best and you just hit the game winner over the actual best’s team), you can be as corny as you want.
In the nba, nobody, specifically a star, is cornier than tatum. That man could run a masterclass on how to be corny af.
When he said that line “they were asking what happened if I didn’t win… I guess we’ll never know!” it was obviously a corny line but man his delivery on it was so bad there wasn’t even any excuses you could make for it. If you’re gonna be corny at least have the decency to be charasmatic like Shai while you’re at it.
He’s so fucking corny it’s hilarious. It’s like he’s playing a character in a movie. At the end of his press conference, I expect him to stand up, pose in his leather raincoat, and then say “Adios turd nuggets” in a robotic voice before walking off making robot noises.
Kobe says it and its ’deep insight and understanding of the game hes playing’, is everything modern day just hate and negativity, corny this corny that
“That’s a bar” if it’s someone they like. “That’s corny” when they don’t. Just an observation from an old guy.
I’m really confused as to whether this guy is trolling or not. The whole outfit thing and his anime like answers. He’s either clip farming or putting on a generational troll run
Nah it’s the classic:
if people think it’s corny = trolling and he successfully rage baited you
If people think it’s cool = he has aura
Schrodingers troll
Yes
He’s leaned on the aura thing heavy. When it was just IG captions it was cold. Now he’s teetering on corny for me. He gets a pass though, he’s still a killa
A bit of both
he’s trying to aura farm but he’s just corny. trying too hard to look cool
He’s aura farming and it’s not for grown men on reddit.
He does it for the kids who haven’t seen anything like him before. Wemby and Shai are the first superstars an entire generation of children.
He should get the wesley snipes blade hair cut
So fuckin corny bro
he’s def getting there haha, he cold tho
hes not cold bro, he been corny
Why? Why everything get called corny now lol. It’s sports entertainment give me this kinda answer over cookie cutter non-answers every day.
Also if jokic or luka said this everyone would be saying that’s a sick quote but because it’s Shai it’s corny
Bro is such a fucking corn ball
I thought that line went hard but I’m corny too I guess
People calling others corny in the internet sound so cynical and anti-fun to me. All the legendary lines from the past would sound lame if you approach them with this teenager-like too-cool-to-care attitude.
I want my NBA stars to be emotional, to care, to tease and be confident and bring forced lines. SGA, Wembanyama, Tatum, LeBron are all “corny”, but I prefer that over online jadedness.
You’re right he should show off his Lego collection instead of:D
Whoa, Legos are cool
He’s Canadian. This is cool to them.
He’s gotta be top 3 all time in inverse of talent to lameness.
If he just didn’t speak, I’d be a fan. He lives life like he is constantly farming for TikTok reels.
At least he isnt a homophobic dead beat father
Yeah, thats lame too.
Theyd just rather hear the same mumbled responses that have 0 insight
Yep, that’s also lame.
SGA isn’t a shitty human. He’s just lame.
It’s more than that. Dude tries so hard to look cool.
Jayson Tatum in that top 3 for sure
I can’t even think of another player that matches him aside from Tatum.
Do you know what inverse means?
SGA haters are not having a good time lmao.
This comments section is full of them lol but they can’t argue bc of last night 😭
They shifted from “I wouldn’t hate him if he didn’t foul bait to I wouldn’t hate him if he wasn’t lame”, I don’t think these people will ever realize how fucking miserable they are
“That bald flopping loser aura farming sticking his tongue out. Waaaah.” r/nba if it existed in the 90s
It went from free throw merchant to redditors, of all people, now saying he isn’t “cool” enough for them
Not a SGA fan at all but god damn that 4th quarter was a masterpiece
Welcome to OKC buddy!
I don’t care about all the peripheral arguments about this guy, that shot was awesome. That’s why I love this sport.
No aura
What is this aura nonsense about?
Boy wants to radiate aura, but he’s blazing with cringe
Lame, try-hard answer. But if wemby said this shit yall would be eating it up.
This^
Two years ago if SGA said this people would be eating it up too.
Only Gen Z and Gen Alpha could try to insult someone by claiming “they’re trying too hard”. Are you going to call him a NPC next? lol soft ass insults.
It would be corny from wemby too
Aura-farming answer
Tatum cornball-mogged by Oklahoma team leader
It’s a bit corny but damn when you tied Wilts 20 point game streak you’re allowed this, crazy stuff.
What are these glasses lol
Lmao a lot of “corny” comments. Y’all have never been successful at anything in your miserable lives. Fucking losers.
Missing out on appreciating one of the best players to ever touch planet earth. Clearly, yall aren’t ball fans, you’re a fan of your team. Fucking fan boys.
I enjoy watching Shai play, and I think he gets too much hate. That doesn’t mean this isn’t cringe lol, it still is.
Holy glaze. He’s not even top 100 all time yet
This dude always trying so hard to get a good sound bite.
Edit: thunder fans out in full force in this comment section 😂
I really like the the vibe of this guy. Seems like a genuinely nice guy, takes everything in stride and seems to smile more than most. Approve.
He’s beginning to believe
—Morpheus
This guy is pretty corny lol
“The Scantron” I’ve heard worse nicknames
Aren’t you supposed to know the answers to tests? Dude trying to be deep or something.
That test? The Mazzulla logic puzzle Meridian
He’s so corny.
The Answer key
Matrix
This dude has the worst style. If he and Joe Burrow ever hit Milan together during fashion week, there will be a crowd crush from people trying to get away.
If Wemby said this you’d all fawn over him. But when my GOAT says it while dressed like Wesley Snipes in Blade, it’s corny. Ok.
Neo be damned
35, 9, and 15 is nuts.
Ig captions go brrrrr
Mf is so cold he described a clock-beating, step back, fall-away contested 3 as “a good, comfortable shot”.
can he get any cornier
Hindsight is 20⁄20 , but what the hell were the Clippers thinking? But as a Lakers fan , I’m grateful
Why do NBA player have the worst fashion in major sports
The designers who sponsored them send cat walk fashion show clothes
MY MVP
TELL EM 2
What a great game and clutch performance from him. He’s definitely putting himself in goat guard conversations if he keeps this up
yall are tripping, this is an absolute bar
oh brother
Corniest mfer to ever cornball
This would be the coldest quote ever if I was 12 years old
Yeah okay
Ohbrotherthisguystinks.gif
Reading this thread makes me hate Reddit
That makes no sense unless we talking about answer key not being numbered like the questions and/or is all multiple choice answers (A B C D E)
Pushes off all the time, flops all the time, and the refs give him and his teammates every call
What is “redditors who don’t know ball”
Toronto tap water is lyricisms father
Remember when NBA players used to be cool? They would say something like “I am the answer”.
Bro knows how Edits work
Tbf this is just a straight-up good answer. He heard the question and didn’t dismiss it, then went into depth explaining it.
A perfect answer. When reporters ask if they knew what shot they were going to take, it’s annoying because much of the time, they don’t know. The greats adjust to whats given to them. They are playing off instinct, and decisions happen in milliseconds
He’s either Kellz or Morpheus
Did the exact same thing to the warriors a few days ago
i don’t like shai gilgeous zoolander, but this is an omega type answer
This is somehow corny and hard at the same time. And what he’s saying makes sense but he’s lowkey overdoing it
Cornball strikes again. Have some shame please
He does have the answers, not all his teammates do though. One man show can only take you so far
Actually watching the clip this didn’t really feel that corny as people make it out to be lol. His fit though lmfao
Shai looks like he’s channeling 2000s Michael Schumacher
Wearing sunglasses indoors will never not look stupid
This guy is playing some of the best hoops from a guard since Jordan. He’s in his element and his bag is deeper than Santa Claus’s bag.
tbf, santa claus is in his off-season, so his bag is probs empty these days…
Deeper than the Marianas trench
This is Shai’s Villain Arch.
If you ball like he does you can be as big of a cornball as you want to be.
“It also helps I have a cheat sheet, right refs?”
Maybe yall should take the day off, these comments arent landing
The rulebook is free to all
This is the type of answer we clown on Tatum for giving. Cornball
No lol people clown on Tatum for posting screenshots of him texting a dead guy or for copying famous speeches for his own, which is still dumb to care about but that’s a whole nother level of manufactured cool 😂
This guy gets less likable by the hour. Lucky he has Lu Dort to hold his beer.
Jalen Hurts ahhh answer
That hesi dribble is so good. He is not using the hesi to sell a the idea of him blowing past you, he is actually committing to it by shifting his weight and initiating the move. He has supreme balance, an airtight handle and elite quickness, where he sees how the defender is reacting, and his next move is based off the defender’s reaction and their new position. In slow motion you can see that SGA just processes the game with elite reaction time, crisp moves, ball control, counters, adjustments— all computed and executed faster than defenders can handle. Of course he can use these same skills to bait for fouls. People have to get comfortable with the idea that SGA is in the same tier as the ATG wings, right along with Kobe, Jordan, LBJ. His draft position is irrelevant, time to use our eyes and witness greatness.
I’ve been thinking about this statement for a while on what exactly does it mean.
If he sees the questions to the test already, and he can produce answers after. Isn’t that just cheating?
That’s a kinda a cold and cool answer at the same time ngl.
I can’t take it anymore
