Thunder GM Sam Presti on criticism towards SGA:
"He's playing against 6 people. He's got 5 defenders and the 6th defender is social media."

Draymond Green says its blasphemous that people would tell the Oklahoma City Thunder to trade Chet Holmgren, who was second in the Defensive Player of the Year award and an All-Star player, because he had a bad series against arguably the best player in the NBA, Victor Wembanyama
Draymond Green:
“Shai, you've reached a new level of greatness my man... you got sports media coming out and talking about what they don't like about your greatness, as if SGA is running up and down the court with the whistle in his mouth calling a foul for himself... you all think the NBA is that easy to where this guy just flops and goes to the free throw line and he becomes the back to back MVP? We really gonna dumb the NBA down to that?”

Mike Breen on SGA:
"Does Shai sell calls sometimes? Absolutely, but so do 287 other players in the NBA… When they weren't a championship contender, nobody complained. They only complain now because they are winning.”

Discourse:
Game 1: "OKC has no answer for Wemby. He's a cheat code"
Game 2: "OKC are cheating"
Game 3: "OKC is a super team"
Game 4: "They are nothing without the whistle"
I've never seen this kind of discourse in my life 😂
