@@nicholaslu4069 no they don't, they are doing something this year because of the veterans, their young core is trash.

Btw, OKC is fucking back baby, they literally beat most contenders this season, including Wolves, Celtics, Clippers, Suns, Bucks, and beat Denver three times already
Best thing about SGA is really that he doesn't turn the ball over. He averages less than 2 TO per game, while scoring almost 32 ppg and also leading the NBA in steals, and with ease. More than 2.5 steals each game while not even giving the ball away twice on average, with this high volume is simply insane. He also makes more than 90 percent of his foul shots. I mean... you wanna compare Luka to that, who is really playing out of his mind but if you look into it Luka may have a higher ceiling, but his floor is also so much lower than Shai's... he isn't close to as good on D and he throws the ball away a lot, 4 Turnovers per game. You can say well Luka has higher usage or whatever, but the truth is SGA is playmaking at an elite level as well, he just knows when to step back and let his teammates go to work. Obviously he knows how to make them better, not just himself. He is still underrated, I think because he plays in Oklahoma City. If he did what he does in LA for the Lakers, ppl would go nuts. He's playing at a Jordanesque level right now. Look at these highlights... dude just BLOWS by Jrue as if he wasn't even there. It's a joke how easy he makes it look.
I was thinking the same thing. Jordan dominated the mid-game, much like SGA does. Jordan used size and strength, while SGA uses smooth deftness, but the results are the same.
That Paul George trade the Clippers made for SGA and all of their future picks was the biggest screw up in that sorry franchise’s history. SGA alone is way more valuable than Paul George and younger.
@@mith2946 That’s why some people are paid millions as GMs or Scouts to evaluate that. Even casuals could see SGA was a special talent when he was with the Clippers. That trade alone built the OKC team you’re seeing today.
@@mith2946 Paul George is not an alpha, he's a beta. Kawhi could not focus on basketball like he did in San Antonio. He was an active holiday for two years. Clippers are still trying to win but hiearachy is impossible there. They are also not a good organization. No culture.

great comeback by celtics..it shows they can come from behind and still win games..they fell short but they learning to come back strong..damn they just might get that chip//
You must've missed the missed calls that went in Boston's favor. I can think of at least two different non-calls or calls that should've gone the other way that helped swing the momentum.
The main advantage of the OKC is their speed!!! Young guys were running lika Usain Bolt for the whole game! I'm a fan of KP and of course i cheered for Boston, but OKC is bigger than Milwaukee, Orlando or Phila threat right now to Boston dteam of winning the title! KP did great but at the end he was so tired, it could be seen on his face..... running after those Road runners team. But the game was fckn great!!!

It’s fascinating.. most times when you hear “the stats don’t tell the whole story”.. it’s a positive. But with Tatum.. his stats don’t reflect where he comes up short. Often.
Sga seem like he can get a layup literally whenever he wants😂. He gets to the rim so easily. Like he might be the mvp but joel playing out of his mind too
Man Celtics are tough. Even in their off night they almost stole the game. If not for Chets two late 3s it would be Celtics game. Im really hopping for a Bucks Celtics ECF and let the best team win.
If you are not paying attention before you better do now. OKC is second in the west. SGA is a superstar. OKC Winning 5 straight 8 of 9 games. Beating defending champs twice, clippers, timberwolves, and now Celtics.
Why don’t Mazulla give KP and Neemias more ? Why did Mazulla over use Holiday when he is already 35 and clearly off for the last few games? Either Mazulla has zero IQ, or Mazulla wants to lose on purpose..OKC is good , and Celtics clearly can do better if KP and Neemias can have more minutes! Even Banton should get more minutes! Why Mazulla ???!!!
Porzingis it was fouled, at least six times that wasn’t called could’ve been the difference in the game. They should call it more equally. I think they’re trying to make it more exciting the ref that is.
Everytime I see Giddy I think to myself there's no way he's going to score with that seemingly unconventional style and unstable handle.. and somehow he manages to prove me wrong. 😅
NBA should start advertising SGA as their next face of the NBA, this guy is balling every game
