Think about it. The Thunder are currently a high seed than the Clippers with the same picks they traded for years ago. The Thunder have gone through a whole rebuild and passed the Clippers in success before the Clippers have won anything.
Hes so cold man. He can do everything he just doesnt need to. Youll witness the hyper elite skills once or twice a game. Just when he needs to break em out.
ik people are gonna call cap on me but I knew SGA was superstar material since he was a complete nobody rook or sophomore im not sure which on the clippers
I really like how you pointed out his defense! Offense is the one thing people look at the most it seems, but to me you gotta be able to defend as well. Shai does that. Even if he's not recording blocks or stopping guys twice his size in the paint, no bucket against Shai guarding close comes easy. And yes, steals count towards good defense just as much as contests. It's his anticipation and awareness to make those moves that leads to both steals and contests. His brain gotta be operating 100× faster than the average human fr.
Great video and my honest opinion one of these 5 should be mvp can’t really be mad at who….. just happy to see SGA get much deserved recognition point blank period.
Awesome video Hardwood, I'm convinced! That's such a cool stat about the turnovers, it's gotta work in his favor especially when he's creating turnovers himself with all those steals. Hope he finishes off the season strong, he's been playing MVP-caliber ball any way you slice it
there is ZERO case for anybody but LUKA. The only reason is ESPN and KIA obsession with weighing the team success far more than the actual MVP. Luka has been in the hunt every year he has played. This year his stats are far more impressive than anyone else. All while being double teamed more than anyone. This is the MVP . Turn overs is because usage percentage the highest with LUKA. Let’s get real 73pts in a game the most triple doubles the most 40pt games this year the most 50pt games this year the most 30pts. Luka’s defensive is actually misleading. He is rated 1 in the post, rated highest is ISO only .05 less in steals per game the SGA. How many records in NBA history does LUKA have to break or set by 25 years of age. If the Mavericks were a 5 team are we saying LUKA wins. Team wins are important but if a team is 8th seed and the gap between 8 and 5 is 1 -5 games? Seriously? The gap between play in and making it is within 3 games there should be zero influence for the MVP. LUKA EASY winner well deserved .
I hope he wins MVP, the dude deserves it. He does his work at both ends and is leading a legit title contender. I’m sick of hearing “OKC are too young to compete, they lack playoff experience” etc. This team is so well coached and they play with a maturity well beyond their mean age. I’ve watched them come back from large deficits time and time again because they trust their system, don’t get down and rarely complain. They have the lowest number of technical fouls per game of any team; that discipline comes from strong leadership.
The Clippers would do whatever to get PG13. Hey,let's trade this youngster,who? his name is Shai Gigeous-Alexander. He's got the Thunder at the top of the western conference standings.This team is going places & will be here for a long time.Shai's an automatic 30+pts a game & leads in steals with 2.1 a game.Plus he's one of the most unguardable players today.🏀🏀🏀🏀
I think you misunderstood the point I was making. Tatum doesn’t clear in any area but the “winning” one. That was my point for that. I’m making a video on Jokic yet and you’ll see all the data and points I have for a Jokic MVP. SGA’s case isn’t bulletproof which is what will make this a fun series. My goal with each video is to steel man that player’s case for MVP. Then pick it apart in the rest of the videos.
@@UrTrashImBetter SGA literally fouled a pacers player with less then 15 seconds left on the clock forcing them to shoot free throws simply for the reason inwhich hell get the ball back and score. Ultimately stat padding to get his 30 points. It’s a fact. Bring an example for me regarding Luka stat padding sir
@@greenmanalishi6963 he’s tryna get 30. Luka’s going for 50. Fouling a player when you know ur gonna lose is different then not passing with a chance to win to make ur stats look better.
This isn't even debatable. SGA is the guy this year... Oklahoma City is #1 in the west and they've taken down every major opponent in the east and west.
How is giannis not top 3 shai is not MVP imo if Dallas gets top 6 seed then luka MVP don't care 35 12 and 9 is insane I love shai I met him he cool asf but I think giannis or luka mvp
Ur mixing up who the best player in the league is and who the most valuable player in the league is… shai might not be the best atm but he prolly is the most valuable
Giannis being the first 30/60 player in nba history, averaging 31/11/6 on 62% shooting with stellar defense on a 2nd seed doesn't deserve the nod because "he's Giannis and he's supposed to be doing that" right??
