I can not emphasize how great your videos are. Thank you again for more content and helping others gain more understanding of the game while be entertaining!!
Well he was getting wide open looks on basically every shot he took because of the defensive scheme they ran. SGA helped off on drives way too much and just left Pj wide open on most looks, lets him get into rythm in the series.
I think the Thunder are going to be top 2 NBA teams this upcoming season after the very recent addition of Alex Caruso and trade of Josh Giddey. I think even in the beginning of his career he was the odd man out in OKC.
Don’t think Alex is a player OKC needs, it’s better than Giddey but they need to prioritise bigs. Their starting 4 is JDub who’s 6’5 and 200lb who’s able to play shooting guards, he’s not Charles Barkley who’s strong enough to hold his own against some of the best bigs ever and average over 12 rebounds per season. They need a proper big and it’s evident when you see how Lively was making Chet a constant mismatch, was too athletic and strong for him. They need to try and acquire bigs, JDub would actually be a great shooting guard for the team, who’s stronger than most guys in his position, very athletic, a great slasher and with a shooting split of 54/43/81.
Interestingly, I think it helps both teams. The Bulls treated Caruso like a part time role player even though he's one of the league's best defenders and he's got a 41% 3pt average last year. OKC gets someone who can score for them and improve their defense at the same time, the Bulls get someone who can defend, rebound, and pass but doesn't care about scoring so their other players can take all the shots.
@@LeonardGums Nah....he's definitely a cut above with the things he does well. OKC just wanted him to be a 3pt shooter because that's their offense. That's not who he is so he'll be better with the Bulls. We'll see if it translates to a good career, but I think he's going to find a spot somewhere no matter what happens. Giddy was 13/8/6, then 17/8/6, then 12/6/5 in reduced minutes. Give the guy 35 minutes a game and he should settle in at least at 15/8/6. Those are respectable numbers. Just don't expect him to be a catch & shoot 3pt guy.
The way Shia was playing near the last couple games that series reminded me of Luka from 2 seasons ago. That’s kinda when I knew Mavswere going to win that series. Shai definitely was carrying those games
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 Nah he's not. Shai is the better driver, better defender, better scorer, better free throw shooter, quicker, better handles, more efficient scorer, less turnovers, better iso player. Luka is the better 3 point shooter, better passer, better playmaker; better post player, and better clutch shooter (although Shai catches up with clutch shots)
I've been trying to explain that to Mavs fans who don't want to think about moving Jones and his 9ppg/35% shooting. Defense is important but unless you're going to be a bench player who just plays to hassle a great scorer for another team, you're asking to lose due to not enough scoring to keep up.
@@SDesWriter 35% is a horrible shooting % from 3, specially when most of his shoots are open shoots. YOU need to shoot over 50% on open shoots to be considered a REGULAR shooter.
Those two helped them stay in it, but in games 5 & 6 Luka either healed enough to play or figured out how to shoot with the injury and he just went nuts. Dort and the double teams constantly, yet he had triple doubles in the last 3 games of the series and good numbers in 4 & 5. SGA really did keep them in it by himself at the end. He made a believer out of me. They're going to have another big year.....
@@-deedee you can survive one role player shooting badly and even Kyrie only giving you 15, but when they all shoot badly and Kyrie only gives you 15 you’re kind of screwed
They got whacked by the Mavs whose 2 starting players were added 3 months ago. Had the Mavs started the season with PJ and Gafford already added, they would surely have more than 50 wins and possibly got the 1st to 3rd seed.
Look how great hes able to play in this flawed offense with horrible floor spacing imagine sga in a team. With good floor spacing. Hes clearly able to make the necessary reads when he drives to the rim
ohhh this vid is about shay mini elbow(see thumbnail). you shouldnt have included luka on the thumbnail. i thought you were gonna compare them. misleading.
I think the guy who took a 5 seed to the finals with a bum knee and weaker starting lineup is what “carrying a team” really looks like but that’s just me 🤷♂️ 😅
More like Shai is Demar Derozan with way more free throws. No team in the universe would take Shai over Luka. Shai is a really good player, whereas Luka is one of those extremely rare, one man team type players.
The revisionism is CRAZY LOL we are talking about Luka Doncic here, no team in the universe takes Shai over Luka and no direspect to Shai I rate him very HIGHLY and he is a top 5 player in the NBA but he aint better then Luka and many people agree with that and the stats back it. Luka has led Dallas to 2 ECF in 3 years and one of them where they made it too the final and just had one of the most best seasons ever statistically and had a VERY GOOD playoffs which is up there with the best. He is one of the best offensive players of all time alreadly and arguably the best tough shot maker of all time. If you want me too pull up more stats I can. Your going overboard here bro and this is coming from someone who has criticized Luka a lot during this playoffs. I get it that Luka is not doing as well right now and the norm is "hating" on him for some but remain objective and I love Shai dont get me wrong he is a ELITE PLAYER and a future MVP one day imo but he aint better then Luka as of right now atleast. though I agree in this specifc series Shai was better then Luka.
@@skullxishim bro I agree with soem things said here but Luka is really no different then James harden in his prime I think recent bias has caught up to people a heavily skilled offensive player but will probably never win James harden was doing allot of the same things but almost better if people could remember 5 years ago😭😭
@@Airhead883 "I'm tired of the 'if' 'if' and buts. When was the last time Kawhi was healthy in the playoffs mate . In addition let me remind at 22 years old, he took the Mavericks to Game 7 against the title-favorites Los Angeles Clippers that year, despite having a worse roster. He dominated HEALTHY Kawhi and Paul George that series, two of the best perimeter defenders at the time, averaging an insane 36 points, 10 rebounds, and 9 assists per game which demolishes your argument He also defeated the number one seed OKC Thunder and tormented the Minnesota Timberwolves' number 1- ranked defense and had a historic playoff run. Yet, you choose to ignore these achievements and did kawhi and the clippers stop him from doing this? And what about his numerous other impressive performances during his career and especially in the playoffs? Like his 73-point game, his 60-20-10 triple-double where he had a insane clutch play, and his game 7 against against the Sun? Did oKawhi and the Clippers stop him from achieving these feats?

According to your logic, are you saying that if the Clippers had Kawhi, they would have made it to the NBA Finals and replicated the Mavs' success with Luka? LOL! It's also amusing how you deflect attention from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander being better than Luka. On to Harden Luka has demonstrated better playmaking and passing abilities, intelligence, court vision, composure, and rebounding compared to James Harden while producing elite scoring numbers. He has also proven to be a more consistent playoff performer than Harden. And don't even get me started on Harden's scoring which is what he is over at Luka at- being compared to him is not an insult at all so I dont get your point there. Luka has already earned one fewer All-NBA First Team selection than Harden in just six years, five of which he was an All-NBA First Team member. That's an incredible feat! Moreover, Luka has made it to the NBA Finals and is on a trajectory for more success. Yt people wills till do this harden gimmick and agenda and already put the label in his head that he is another Harden and wont win a championship (when he is only 25 so i dont get that, Jordan's first ring was at 28, Lebron's was at 27 and your sample size for him not winning a championship is ONE PLAYER lol) instead of being logical and watch the games. The eye test and stats back it all and he has alreadly made the finals having a historic playoffs where he had to go through a very tough run. Luka has done ALL of this despite only being 25. Also Luka won at Europe's highest level at 17.
“Playing D” equals giving up career games to PJ Washington and then getting moved to DJJ and giving up career games. Congratulations he was marginally better than 60% healthy Luka.
Idk. Luka scored only slightly less, while leading in rebounds, assists, controlling the whole pace, and having several important defensive plays. Bottom line is that no coach or gm in the universe would take Shai over Luka though.
@@Musso8771bro this nonsense needs to stop. Shai averaged only one less assist than luka with a way better asssist/turnover ratio, 2 less rebounds, while averaging 8 more points than luka and being a significantly more impactful defender than luka. Lets not forget that pj was the best mavs player in 3 of the csf 6 games and shai being a more efficient and consistent player than luka while being the best on his team all series. Not a discussion. Just say that luka was better than what ppl ate saying he was in that series. That will make your claim more legitimate
@@bonystickmanking1250 Agree bro I dont know why people are arguing this as we all still agree or most logical people that luka is better then Luka is still better then Shai, as of right now atleast and went on to have the better playoffs imo. Im perfectly fine with admitting Luka was better then Shai this series, coming from a mavs fan.
Honestly all we need to do is get rid of Tim Hardaway Jr and that will open up 15 million in cap space alone now if we add on Maxi Kleiber and Dwight Powell now we're at 30 million and open cap space

the roster was not much better LOL or else okc wouldve won, SGA was playing out of his mind and they still lost, but youre just gonna choose to ignore the fact that the mavs had the best record post trade deadline and that okcs team is literally filled with no playoff experience rookies 🤣🤣🤣

(their team) 🤣 LMK when SGA has a teammate that can average 27 7 and 6 on 52/45/85 splits while playing BETTER DEFENSE than him across an entire playoff series 😭😭😭
This year alone could be Shai but both have their own strengths. I think LeBron is the better shooter and playmaker and generates more points but Shai is currently the better finisher and off dribble mid-range shooter. It's really just what you prefer in an offense. Both players are at their best with a bunch of shooters and off ball players around them

Are you serious? 😂 the mavs were 2 times the rebounding team that okc ever was and had the best defense in the regular season post deadline and in the playoffs. and we all know luka and kyrie werent the reasons for the crazy jump in defense, so i wonder who on the mavericks improved them SO MUCH. (their team) 🤣 LMK when SGA has a teammate that can average 27 7 and 6 on 52/45/85 splits while playing BETTER DEFENSE than him across an entire playoff series 😭😭😭
Better offensive player LeBron or shai in 2024?
This year alone could be Shai but both have their own strengths. I think LeBron is the better shooter and playmaker and generates more points but Shai is currently the better finisher and off dribble mid-range shooter. It's really just what you prefer in an offense. Both players are at their best with a bunch of shooters and off ball players around them
@@TheGamingShogunin what world is Shai a better finisher? lol bron clears easily 😂
@@World_coreshai better in every stat💀
@@tuna.warrior365shai has no remote chance against prime bron bruh cmon
@@bradfordsegal2648 nobody said prime bron
I guess the game 5 and game 6 didn't happen then in series or doesn't count for whatever reason. 🤣
Who said that??
