    Wasn't always the biggest fan, but his game grew on me, mostly the confidence he plays with is rare to see. Like he knows he's the best on the floor. Good to see him staying consistent and improving. Gonna be a problem going forward.

      His game is the smoothest game I think I’ve ever seen in my life, nothing is forced n he’s just so crafty n moves with so much control

    Been a fan of him since he was on the clippers. I’m glad OKC gave him the keys. He is one of the best new school players. He has the full package, sky is the limit for him.

  • @christopherbastien1120

    Idk anyone has said it , but also short stint he had Chris Paul for sure helped him out. Best examples on why you need veterans on your team.

    If Cade can clean up his efficiency and handle, I think he can mimic what SGA is doing. I love the way SGA reads the court.

    He is better than Ja Morant & Luka Doncic in my opinion.
    OKC is the Real Process, Not the Sixers. In comparison:
    All OKC’s young players are and have developed into Serviceable Starters, unlike in Philadelphia where they trade away all their Under Processed Players.
    Even with Embiid leading the league in scoring they can’t get past the 1st and 2nd rounds of the Offs.
    OKC will be a championship caliber team for the next Decade.
    I Thundered Up a few years ago from being a lifelong Sacramento Kings fan and supporter.
    SGA is the 23-24 MVP

    25ppg for OKC through almost 300 games over the past FIVE YEARS. His rise to greatness has been anything but sudden and if it surprises you then you're a casual NBA fan.

  • @kevinso187
    @kevinso187 9 месяцев назад +2

    My favorite quality of Shai his “Kobe-like” presence on a possession to possession basis. It seem on every possession he has the ball, he or his teammate will score. They don’t turn the ball over and it is a problem for OKCs opponents

    Man what a good time to be a OKC fan. This man is the most consistent scorer in the whole league with the most 30 point games so far. All while getting his team involved and getting points within the flow of the offence. I believe he's gonna have a long prime because his game isn't as physically demanding and efficient

    I would like to see you do Steve Kerr. I know he was never a star or anything, but the man was literally unrecruited out of high school, it was just his high school coach knowing Lute Olsen and sending Lute a letter and tape when Lute got hired to coach at the U of A, that was a four win team the prior year, that got Kerr a D1 spot when he was already enrolled as a normal college student planning to play intramural basketball. Kerr was supposed to be a good locker room influence who rarely played, but he made the most of his opportunity. Getting drafted late in the 2nd round, at 50th, the sports writers said he would not likely ever play in the NBA, and then he really barely played at first and was almost out of the league when he asked the Bulls if he could try out for them.
    Kerr is by far the least athletically gifted human with an NBA ring as a player, and he has five. And now four more as a coach. And he was not supposed to be able to make it at anything above high school. A testament to his extreme competitiveness, his hard work, his intelligence, and just being a super likeable guy; he literally was drafted because the Suns had an image problem and he was a good way to help improve that. www.nba.com/bulls/history/steve-kerr-unlikely-journey
