We will see what happens in OKC, but it does genuinely feel like the alternate reality of what should have happened back in 2012 being made right 13 years later.
Some insanely great luck for the Thunder org, but also, they made their own luck. Sam Presti is the best at this.
JDub's injury is the same injury Brandon Miller had in January that caused him to miss the rest of the season.
Incredible he played the entire playoffs, was OKC's second best player in a title run and dropped 40 in a Finals game all while we never heard a peep about the wrist.
@royceyoung@JoshEberley SGA and Mathurin shot the same amount of free throws in the last 2 games (16 total). Mathurin shot the ball 14 times. SGA shot the ball 44 times. LOL
The narrative around OKC & SGA isn’t what it seems. 👀
OKC attempted 20.6 FT per game in the regular season - 26th in the league & lower than almost EVERY Playoff team!
While OKC’s FTA have increased in the Playoffs, 20.4 to 26.0, SGA’s have done the OPPOSITE.
On behalf of the people of Oklahoma City, I congratulate our very own Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for being named the Most Valuable Player of the National Basketball Association!
Sorry friends.. I haven’t been able to watch a Thunder game all the way through yet. Every time I’ve turned the tv off we ended up winning. So I turned it off.. 🫣 #alittlestitious
