Shai is good for basketball.

[Mask the Embiid]

He's bringing the midrange back and making it viable to win a chip. His bread and butter is inside the 3 point line.



He plays on both ends. He will motivate kids growing up to play on both ends like what use to be the norm. Thats good


Him foul hunting will eventually get the rules changed. Just like how every other great player gets rules made to nerf them. This will end up being a positive mark left on the game of basketball overall.


He plays the right way. Thats good for the youth coming up to copy

For once OP made a thread that doesn't suck.

For years people have been complaining about load management and guys spamming 3s. Shai does neither. Like KD and Kawhi in previous years he is showing the value of a midrange bag even now.

Awhile back i remember seeing people saying his game wouldn't translate in the playoffs because he relies to much on free throws like Harden. That was a bad comparison because of Shai's midrange game. He lives in the lane so he gets fouled a lot.

Agreed.

People wanted to know what it would look like if Kobe or MJ played in today's NBA. Well, a less athletic version of those guys is the MVP and will soon be the Finals MVP of the league.

Flopping was a huge part of the game long before SGA came into the league.

This is not really the truth. I will have more to say on this later.....

Only 5 of his 30 PPG came from the foul line. I seriously doubt Jokic has ever had a flop as bad as LeBron running out of bounds to get away from scary Terry.

OP is a ret*rd, but is correct here.

Shai is winning by hitting middies at a very high and consistent clip. It shows how effective it can be in close playoff games.

The new thing he's doing is dribble into them, which I can't really remember many doing, except maybe Tony Parker.

You can't have the face of your league playing in Bumf#ck OKC.

He can't wait for free agency.
