Is that a fact?? Let’s examine that by comparing him to the guy who just won a Championship.
Avg. seconds per touch:
Shai: 5.60
Luka Doncic: 5.14
Avg. dribbles per touch:
Shai: 5.49
Luka Doncic: 4.25
Passes per game:
Shai: 37.9
Luka Doncic: 55.3
Shai holds the ball longer, dribbles more, and passes less— Yet we never hear these narratives about him. I wonder why??
THIS is what we mean when we call people ESPN parrots 🦜 🦜
@zpskywalka@J_Dawgg0@ayyrod_ also to clarify, i’ve been a shai fan since his clips days. i just don’t like unreasonable narrative pushing, which shai has received more than almost any player in the last 15 years
@zpskywalka@J_Dawgg0@ayyrod_ luka literally dog walked shai in the playoffs lol, you’re trying to do away with that coz u don’t want that narrative and it’s clear dawg
@zpskywalka@J_Dawgg0@ayyrod_ “matchup” is a faulty comparison, as it includes team differences. OKC as you know are by far and away the best team in the league in just about every aspect except 3pt shooting. it’s only natural shai is going to win the matchups, barring any drastic fuck ups.
@J_Dawgg0@ayyrod_ i’m not saying he’s bad, he’s a top 5 player itl. but the narrative pushing gets to a point - moreso than any other player i’ve seen except for maybe… Joel Embiid? or Deni Avdija?
@mantitoy@FlaggMavs Which shai in the finals vs the pacers had an even worse historic all time bad blow by percentage that was almost 10% higher than luka’s when it was “the all time worst”😭🙏🏻
@B17121531 @JacksonBucket @thunderszn13120 Finally someone with a brain dawg, maybe swap turner and siakam slide kat to the 5 other than that valid list
