SGA discourse has nothing to do with reality

The reason no one is talking about Luka’s foul baiting right now is because he’s not playing. He gets plenty of criticism for it and would be hearing a ton more if he was on the court now while more eyeballs are on games. Harden got tons of criticism for it as well.

😂….. I was waiting for these lame takes…. Proof!

1. It's the theatrics. If you think the body flails like that when you get bumped a little we can't help you. 2. He flails at tiny bumps. 3. He has shot 400 more free throws than the next guy if you add up the last two seasons combined

@Carsobi this is not basketball. Idk if you’re rage baiting or don’t know ball but you are clueless if you don’t see what he’s doing

Carson we have eyes. It’s the flailing and obviously he’s amazing which is our point he doesn’t need to constantly do that shit but i also get why he does it.

You make good points, but there was absolutely discourse about Harden doing this years ago

Bc you’re trying to rationalize & defend what is not indefensible but what is so far from the spirit of the law as has been enforced for generations that you’re effectively making not just an exception but a precedent AND an effective champion out of that exception made precedent

Even though you’re a spreadsheet merchant, you are definitely one of the most sensible media guys on here. It’s actually crazy that you are on the same network as Jason Timpf who’s one of the most disingenous and bias media guys I’ve seen.

@royceyoung

@getnickwright @colincowherd This is real journalism. I know you won’t watch cause your hacks but you should.

I have watched basketball my whole life and watching this Thunder team play brings me no joy. Zero. None. Are they good? Yes. Are they officiated fairly? Hell No. It’s a brutal watch

You mentioned Brunson name and he’s nowhere near the top in freethrows you really don’t watch basketball

The longer the defenders act as if he doesn’t exaggerate contact to a hilarious extent… the longer this will go on

@homahoops cooooooookkkkkkkkkk 🔥 sga also snatched a lot of chains this season and the last couple of seasons it has the “ic bros” fan bases in shambles

“The issue is Shai and the Thunder are too good” Except we’ve been saying this about SGA and the Thunder and their playstyle for 3 years not and they have 1 championship in that time

Shai is a top level scorer from 3 point line, from mid range and around the basket. However because the FT is the weakest part of his game they attack his free throws. he’s too good and poised

@PranavSriraman Look at the discord when they tried to use total FT’s including playoffs and regular season when Shai has played more games and been healthier than other stars it’s actually insanity

Yes it clearly does. Just cause yall say “he isn’t even at the top of free throw attempts” But the fouls he does get, ARE FLOPS

It is because nobody likes a small market team winning the chip. If SGA wore a Knicks or Lakers uniform, the discourse would be completely different.

That comes with the territory of being the best player...people will try to diminish you. As long as SGA keeps winning and racking up MVPs and Titles the narrative will slowly shift.

Yes 🙏 Unfortunately, in social media, people engage more with negativity than anything else. This narrative is easy engagement. What has bummed me out is to see knowledgeable analysts pick up an engagement tactic from nameless, faceless accounts, and give credibility to it.

You’re the one that doesn’t live in reality. Luka DOES get a ton of shit. Embiid DOES get a ton of shit. Brunson DOES get a ton of shit. Harden got so much more shit than Shai, and it’s not even close. And rightfully so.

Yeah try watching all year, not just one game. Watching a player flail his head back every time there’s marginal contact and flail his arms like he got shot in the chest when a guy is just playing good defense and Shai trucks into him is unwatchable garbage. It’s a horrid watch

Preach brother. Can I get a damn amen. Y’all are just upset that lil ole OKC put together a team that can beat your favorite team easily.

🤣✌️

The discourse against SGA is already pre determined, and it sucks because he is playing at a historical level but to the normal fan he for now is just a unethical foul baiter. Hope one day he gets the respect. Great video.

SGA is already known to be the flopper for free throws merchant, but people are seeing it more clearly now because the games count.

Grabbed his face..and there numerous videos from this game of SGA flailing like a premier league soccer player.

Lukas 6”8 huge and gets hammered. He drives to the basketball looking to score SGA drives to try to flop and draw contact. We have eyes nerd

@getnickwright this is all we’re saying, there are thunder fans calling you racist i find that laughable, i just think ur blowing a few plays per game out of proportion and not taking a chance to see what’s actually happening.

This kid seems to think everyone that is not an OKC or Shai fan is delusional. Zero self awareness. No awareness in general. Probably never even attempts to try and see the situation from opposing peoples perspectives.

This aged like milk after tonight's flop-fest lol.

OVER 400 PLUS MORE FTs than any other player bro. Careful you are defending him you might foul him to. There is absolutely no way you are defending this dude. He isn’t an MVP he benefits from teams not playing hard defense because the NBA babies him

@royceyoung SGA Derangement Syndrome is a real thing

@dubsonlysports usually your videos are similar to this. Actually using objective data to help your points in an argument. But, you went with subjective garbage and said “this is what it looks like, this is how i feel” and decided to post something for clicks smh be better
