Shai without the refs’ FTs stimulus check

This mfer getting ALL the free throws in Game 7

Unless he goes full god mode in Game 7 and definitively win them the game, even if they win the series, he still deserves the slander lol. Other stars have been slandered for less, SGA is getting hard carried by Caruso and co.

Is it slander if its warranted? The first series he doesn’t consistently get the Shai whistle and his TS% drops off a cliff. Shai is the most overrated player in the history of basketball. He’s a guy that would come off the bench in any other era of the NBA where his antics would either draw no whistle or get him knocked the fuck out by the other team’s enforcer nightly.

“shooting tour dates” 😭😭🤣🤣

I’ve never heard the phrase “shooting tour dates” before yet I immediately knew what you meant. Ha!

I remember back then it was the 2016 Finals Steph that was the poster for a high volume historic guard dropping off in scoring, and regardless of injuries it was a deserved critique

Looking at their scoring only this might be even worse, and that’s with a whistle that’s generally good

Sorry, that’s not allowed. 2 free throws for SGA

More FTA than total FGs is insane

Yep, his bread and butter. Flopper Up!

Exact same thing happened last year.
32.7ppg on 63.7% TS in the regular season then 29.9ppg on 57.4% TS in the playoffs. Those playoffs had both players and coaches complaining about the physicality and Jokic too had a big fall off in both scoring and efficiency (‘just’ 58% TS).
This is the problem when you make all these changes to have scoring become as easy as possible. As soon as those advantages are taken away, like in the playoffs when the refs let it become a bit more physical, then scoring and efficiency plummets. It’s why it’s crazy to compare scoring and efficiency across eras, so many variables to account for makes it impossible to come to a fair conclusion.

Remember the 20 point game streak? I thought that was so lame at the time, seems like he is struggling in the postseason without the whistle to get 20.

literally not true. noone will gaf if they win g7

Insanely stacked team

Which proves even more why he isn’t a top 5 player. Just happens to be the leader of a deeply talented team.

Luka on one leg is better than this

Jokic DID play this bad in the first round. You guys have goldfish memories. 

Luka played better in the finals and got crushed

Shai been crushed he’s the most hated player currently

If we’re talking about play and not flopping; I’ve seen more criticism for Wemby’s game 5 and Stephon Castle’s overall gameplay than I’ve seen for SGA’s

Thinking Basketball did mention before how both Shai and Demar have the same unique signal of depressing their team’s shots at the rim, due to setting up their isos in the pinch post.

This does not happen with similar midrange scorers like Kobe and KD

I thought it was going to be Homelander trying to fly off 😂

What he say fuck DeMar for

most valueless player

Not mine

Jalen wishes he could get that whistle

Hey Jalen was amazing in the play in, saved our butts

Never seen an mvp so reliant on a whistle before

post this in your sub

Caruso especially, since he is still hitting contested shots so folks can’t use “SGA’s gravity”. And not to mention his work on defense. If OKC wins this series and he doesn’t get WCF MVP, that would be a massive robbery.

If they win the WCF, I think Caruso should get the WCF FMVP. If they win the Championship, more than likely shai will get it, but for the WCF, the best player has been Caruso.

Compared to someone like Luka who seems to get better when there’s more at stake.

It’s genuinely crazy how much worse he is when defenders aren’t worried that they’ll get a whistle if they get within 3’ of him

It really has been. Was just thinking James Harden ass series

Did you just pick a random series where Kobe did well to compare to SGA’s worst series?

I wonder what would happen if you picked Kobe’s worst series

11 FTA in 5 games?

Kobe averaged 29 points on just 11 FTA in Spurs 08 series

That’s actually crazy for Kobe tbh

wild username btw 😳

Stop it lmao, you can bring up many Kobe series shitting the bed

Kobe literally had 7 series shooting below 40% from the field lmao, this is SGA’s first

Tomorrow’s actually the 18th anniversary of Kobe’s epic closeout game against the Spurs. Kobe managed to beat a Spurs team with Duncan in his prime while SGA might lose to a Spurs team with Wemby making his playoff debut.

The difference is Kobe was a lot better and played in dead ball era. Efficiency is a product of modern nba pushing for offense

We putting him in Joe Johnson convos if they lose game 7

Not really that uncommon. LeBron has done that 8 times in his career. MJ did it 4 times, Harden did 14 times, Kobe did it 7 times.

My favorite part is when the bitch calls don’t go his way is that his loser fans all disappear too

He was not that great last year either

His TS+ has dropped six points from the regular season to playoffs over his career. MJ’s did not budge, it remained exactly the same….bro didn’t care whether it was the first game of the season or game seven six of an NBA Finals. Just played the same way no matter what.

He gotta fall down more
