Insane efficiency
He's going to lead the Thunder to the playoffs, this year and earn his first MVP. Mark my words.
The man is just really good at basketball.

Canada stand up
Toronto stand up :applause:

he prayed on it

[WhiteKyrie]

He’s great. Very effortlessly slithery and shifty. Long. His jumper is as hideous as his fashion sense

[theman93]

It appears you have misspelled Franz Wagner.

[post]

could be the best guard in the league maybe top 2 player

[Axe]

That is, if he eventually leads the thunder above somewhere between the 4th-6th seed from their previous season. :confusedshrug:

Imagine a jumper that works and goes in being hideous. Clown take. You probably rate guy's *****' too.

[FultzNationRISE]

Impressive start to the season, and considering the strides he made last year it doesnt seem like much of an anomaly in terms of what to expect the rest of the way. Obviously not gonna drop 10 assists or shoot 12-18 EVERY game, but I'd expect these performances to be a pretty reg occurrence for him.

Thunder still need a year or two of bulking up and getting seasoned before theyre a threat to anyone but theyre in fine shape if they can keep this roster together and stay healthy.

[AirBonner]

Tatum averaging 34/11/4 on 60% and his team will have 20 more wins than Shai’s :rockon::pimp:

[k0kakw0rld]

One of the few posters I could believe posted the averages after 1 game and was serious about it.
It wasn't my intention to emphasize on the averages. I have been impressed with him, his leadership. He averaged 31.4 ppg last season and led Canada to a bronze medal, destroying the USA in the process.

It's simply his time to shine.

[SATAN]

It will be Jokic again unless injuries ruin the Nuggets, which seems unlikely. Everyone knows Embiid didn't really deserve it last season and the Joker hype is very high right now.

He's certainly a great player, I was just reacting to citing his stats.

[ralph_i_el]

I think OKC will win 50 games. If they win 50 or more, I could see him winning MVP.

[k0kakw0rld]

Another 30 point ga:banana:me for the MVP and a W

[k0kakw0rld]

Another 30 pt game

Thunder 2-0 that's my MVP

Avoid this thread like a coward lol

Great game by MVP Jokic...Insane efficiency...

[bdonovan]

It will be Jokic again unless injuries ruin the Nuggets, which seems unlikely. Everyone knows Embiid didn't really deserve it last season and the Joker hype is very high right now.

Jokic did not merit the MVP last year and he likely won't deserve it this year. Historically the MVP is the top scorer (or near the top). There's been I believe only one exception in the last 20 years or so (Nash). Jokic was fortunate in some sense that Murray was injured for a year and a half- because it allowed him to win the MVP award twice because his stats were inflated to account for Murray being gone. As soon as Murray returned, Jokic was not even in the top 15 in scoring. Like I mentioned, there's only been one exception to the scoring rule for MVPs - so the odds are against it.

You are right about the hype or support behind Jokic. All of suburban America is rooting for him. That alone won't bend the odds in his favor.

He’s the best player in the game and everyone knows it. So that kinda clears a path to the award for him if he has a season up to his usual standards and nobody else clearly surpasses him.

But we’re sorry you’re hurting so badly inside.

Is this hype unjust in your eyes?

Handful of games... :roll:

I know you and the Bronies are stuck on this regardless of the evidence thrown right in your face, but for the sake of anyone reading this who actually has an open mind, here's a bigger sample, JUST from post season games.

2007 game 1 against Detroit. 10 points on 33% shooting. LOSS.
Game 2 against Detroit. 19 points on 37% shooting. LOSS.

Shai will absolutely be in consideration for MVP based on his performance so far this year. A guard shooting over 50% and over 28ppg

Edit: also improvements in both assists and rebounds from the previous year... rare.

Not sure he should be.

Luka got his points last night but played a very uninspiring game.

Mostly just dribbled into traffic and took difficult shots or made risky passes that often end up as a turnover. It looked very stagnant and predictable.

Teammates didnt seem real engaged by it. He just has too many games like that.

SGA is currently 4th on the MVP ladder. I think he has a very good chance to be a finalist.

My thread about Banchero still stands. 2nd year guys are supposed to take a huge leap, ask Luka, ask Ttae foe example. He's still the same player as his rookie year. We were expecting maybe upping his stat production a little bit more. You are acting like I'm a hater. He's on my fantasy team you dumbfvck.

Predictions have always been made early during the season. It's certainly not the first time it s been done on the forum. Plus, we see plenty of premature predictions s like Embiid is going to win MVP, others say Luka, others Jokic and so on. Quit batching because you don't like me. If you don't like my posts why are you even following me around? I don't know what you do on this forum, you know why? Because I' don't care about what you think, Idgaf about what you post. My opinion is based off everything that he's been doing not only starting last season. Where he had the .ost 30 point games out of all players, but averaged a scary 31.4 ppg on 51% shooting from the field. Led Canada to bronze medal at the FIBA world cup beating USA which I predicted he would kill them. Then this season, he's even playing better. Averaging 30.7 ppg on 54% shooting from the field. Leading the league in steals. Leading that thunder team to the second seed so far in the west. The man is on a mission and many people not living in the US were foreseeing this from him..

50 overreaction threads huh? N1qqa I only post 2x per day. And I'm actually rarely here. I don't spend all my time here like AXE with his 23 posts per day. Please get a damn life.

You must be blind because I explained why the thread was made about Banchero regressing, in the first place. From what I have seen so far from him I am not that impressed. The reason is simple, I like his game a lot. However some nights he looked like a role player he is the same player and not the star he was projected to be. It doesn't look like it's his team. Wagner has really impressed me so far more than Banchero. It's still too early.however, his trajectory so far may be similar to his rookie season which is what is.my issue with him. Example Luka went from 21 ppg his rookie to 28 ppg his sophomore season. Trae Young went from 19 ppg his rookie season to 29 ppg his sophomore season. The post is not based off of hate. Stop crying like a girl jheeze. I actually like his game a lot.

That's the expectation I had for Paolo Banchero.

You out there calling people's threads stupid like a sad girl who no man's wants to look at her. Since you like to follow me around. Many of my predictions and takes came to fruition.

Real don't wear green by the way. Fk Boston straight up.

Bamcheron is shooting better from the field overall and from the with the same points rebounds steals blocks and assists. You are only hinging this dumb argument on free throw shooting because you want to protect a stupid statement... and I'm probably not going to cry over you not liking Boston.

Oh please stfu lol y'all giving LeBron hard times because of his free throw percentages but I can't bring up that stats for another player? I also mentioned three point percentage as well. So he did regress in some key areas. You were all barking and now I answered..look now who looks stupid.

Get yourself some help bro, easily triggered by the smallest thing..Maybe smoke of that green, since you like that color so much. This will probably get you to relax.

Pretty sure I've never said anything about James' FT shooting. And to use ft shooting as the reason why Banchero regressed? It was a dumb topic. Take the L.

You are going to die in this hill and it's going to get ugly. Banchero had a bad game tonight and will have 10 or so more. Along the way he will average 21 points 7 boards and 4 assists overall. Very possibly make allstar. And you still won't know what regression means. Your stupidity is its own punishment and no one will feel badly for you because you're such a colossal jackass.

[Manny98]

Haven't seen a guard dominate on both ends the way Shai has since Prime D Wade days

He definitely my MVP so far

[Trollsmasher]

You could probably knock Shai for not creating for others as much as the lead guard should but at the same time he compensates it with great ball security and very low TOV %.

Actually Jordanesque statistical profile.

[tontoz]

Embiid is the clear frontrunner but the 65 game minimum could be an issue for him. If he doesn't make it Shai certainly has a legit chance. It would be hard to catch Embiid if he stays healthy.

[Im Still Ballin]

Maybe my favorite player right now. He and Jimmy Butler are perhaps the best examples of guys who can dominate without a consistent and reliable three-point shot. He pivots a bit like Kobe and Mike. There was a play in the Minnesota game where he faked Gobert out and stepped through for a finger roll. Very nice stuff.

[ShawkFactory]

Watched the entire game last night against the Knicks. I already knew this but he is so fvcking good. He's not as explosive as Jordan was but his size/length/footwork/shiftiness is very similar for the position. He's also very unselfish and seems to want to make the right play at all times. I feel like if he wanted to he could get 40 at any time.

He's also always active and around the ball. Gets everything that's loose.

[hold this L]

Gets helped by the refs in Jordanesque manner as well. He's going to dominate the league at this rate, but I'm waiting to see how he does in the playoffs first.

[tontoz]

He should do well in the playoffs because he shoots well in the shots the defense wants the opponents to take.

3-10 ft 52%
10-16 ft 53.7%
16-3pt 54.8%

Not many guys are shooting over 50% from all 3 areas. Half of his attempts come from these areas.

[SATAN]

Ah yes, there it is. Yet another player that LeBron regularly destroys being compared to MJ.

When will these people learn?

[k0kakw0rld]

Best scorer in the league period. My take still stands but he doesn’t get the attention he deserves.
SGA is him.

[90sgoat]

Can't even hate on Shai, since he is a FIBA superstar and has proven he is the real deal.

I hear he's getting the whistle a lot.

Imo, Doncic is the MVP so far, but his lack of defense means he will need to produce a better record to win it

[hold this L]

No he isn't. Dude is getting one of the most pathetic whistles in the entire league. Which is par the course from the alien that runs this organization, all young stars in the making get awful whistles to gas their game up, like Ja from 2-3 years ago.

He’s only getting 8 FTs a game. But for the sake of the argument let’s say he only gets 6.5. So he goes from 31.4 a game to 30.2. Cool. What a hit to his game that would be.

The eye test just…checks out. He’s been the best player on the court whenever I’ve watched him this year. Even the Nuggets game.

This is a dumb argument. It's not about him getting 8 (which is a lot for a guard) or 6.5. It's the way you're guarded when you get these garbage fouls. Players are going to defend you differently because of that reason. It's the same reason people are more hesitant when they press Ja since he's allowed to carry and travel at will, or when people are afraid to be around prime Harden's vicinity. Against the Warriors in one of the games, the guy was getting soft as baby shit fouls in the last 2 minutes of the game, the one time where refs don't hand them out like candy in today's NBA. He used his foot to push off Wiggins on the air and they still called a foul on Wiggs.

He's an amazing talent but he like Ja, James, Giannis, Embiid etc get refereed differently than everybody else.

Okay, even if that were true (I don’t really see him being guarded differently. He has a way of movement that makes him very difficult to defend)..how is getting superstar calls a knock on him or something really worth mentioning? This has happened since the birth of the game.

If anything it’s a plus and shows that he’s made it. Even if getting all the calls in theory sucks.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander MVP

I think he will not win it unless OKC has the best record or very very close to it. He may be deserving but 'the narrative' is just not out there yet.

[tontoz]

I think Embiid would have to miss the 65 game limit for Shai to actually win it. That is entirely possible. Embiid only played 66 last season.

[k0kakw0rld]

Leading his team to T-1 in the West. Yup, that's my MVP so far. :applause:

Your momma has regressed, her latest performances in bed have been lacklusters.

Your posts have sure regressed. :facepalm

[tontoz]

SGA has a TS of 65% currently, pretty rare territory for a high scoring guard. Other than Curry I can't think of a guard scoring that much with efficiency that high.

He also leads the league in win shares and win shares per 48.

[Im Still Ballin]

He would be my pick. Looks like Joel is going to miss too many games. Even if he scrapes by the 65 limit, I'd still probably give it to Shai, given he plays like 75+.

[SATAN]

Podcast P absolutely obliterating this MJ wannabe!

[k0kakw0rld]

The man is about to eclipse KD's number of 30 point games in one season for OKC.

Shai is leading the league in 30 pt games, just like last year. Thunder are back to #1 in the west by a very small margin.

He's the MVP

[dankok8]

As good as he is, he's arguably not even the most impactful player on his own team. MVP should be Jokic.

[k0kakw0rld]

Jokic ain't winning anything without Jamal Murray.
So, tell us genius, who's more valuable than SGA on that OKC team?

[FultzNationRISE]

I dont have a problem with him winning it. He's been extremely consistent from start to finish. And he plays a huge role on a team that will finish first or second in the West. He's got statistical as well as narrative arguments.

Unless he tanks the final month of the season, which is highly unlikely, he's gonna have a pretty strong claim.

It doesnt mean he's the best player in the game. He needs a playoff track record before that's a discussion. But as far as this regular season's most valuable player? He feels like the guy with the best case.

[tontoz]

Assuming they stay healthy it will come down to SGA and Jokic. I don't see anyone else with a realistic chance.

[FultzNationRISE]

Assuming they stay healthy it will come down to SGA and Jokic. I don't see anyone else with a realistic chance.

The thing is, before the allstar break Jokic had games where he'd intentionally step back, sometimes barely taking any shots, so his teammates could get more opportunities and more rhythm. And a handful of games where his shooting was just way off his usual standards. Now that Denver is ramping up for the playoffs he's looking like the usual MVP Jokic, but I think for a season award it's fair to reward the guy who kept that high level at a super consistent rate throughout the year.

[Axe]

He'll probably get it if his team finishes ahead of the nuggets this year.

[elementally morale]

He'll probably get it if his team finishes ahead of the nuggets this year.

If they finish 3 or 4 games above and the Nuggets are 3rd or 4th in the West, yes. If it is only 2 games I don't see it happening. If he does win though, I'm fine with it. SGA is deserving. So is Jokic. I think Jokic will take it on name recognition and as a correction for last year if the difference between the teams is not 3 games or seeds. Is this a good reason for him to win it? Not really. But I think this is the way voters will go.

[dankok8]

Jokic ain't winning anything without Jamal Murray.
So, tell us genius, who's more valuable than SGA on that OKC team?

He's not better but Chet is quite possibly more valuable to that team with how good he is defensively.

Comparing Jokic vs. SGA, it isn't particularly close in terms of who the better player is. Since their team records are essentially the same, what exactly is the case for SGA?

Yeah, it will all boil down near to the end of the season. However, if sga manages to win it, he'd be the first guard to win the award in more than five years since harden did so in 2018. But the thunder really have to pull away first because the record parity between them and their close rivals is high rn.

Well duh! One I'd a center, the other one is a shooting point guard.

SGA leads the league in steals (à la MJ) and deflections, win shares, win shares per 48 min. Jokic other than stat padding can't guard anybody just like Luka.

[BarberSchool]

Shai is so close; but if he gets MVP this year, it risks ruining his very recent ascent, in the minds of many lay fans, because OKC is at very high risk of being a first round exit, despite at times being 1st in the west.

They are incredibly susceptible to getting destroyed on the boards, by teams with size/heavies. Also, many of their players besides Shai, are NOT polished half court offensive players. Most of their supporting talent are really only fast break and secondary transition scorers

[Lakers Legend#32]

He will leave bumf#ck OKC at his first available opportunity.
