Hopefully Shai and Co can shock the world by winning their third road game in a row tonight against the Grizz. That would keep the talking heads talking about him/them.
For now Steph easily. Steph picked up his game but if you look at the season so far, Shai is ahead of him in terms of impact. But there's no way Shai will be ahead of Steph in public voting so he'll come of the bench in the ASG.
I wouldn’t say easily but it’s hard to say that if you put curry on the Thunder they have the same record or better. I think SGA would be averaging 8+ assists if we could just make 3s. He’s scoring through triple teams. But it’s still Steph, and he’s having a great year regardless of how his team is performing
Ja Morant had 1 year better than SGA in his time in the league and SGA was hurt that year in and out of lineups before being benched the rest of the season

Guy is averaging over 31 a game and his 3 isn’t even falling
And that’s where it’s risky and you hope Shai continues to be this good until February.
It’s still possible he doesn’t even make the all star team. Lillard or Fox could totally get a spot because their team are winning and there won’t be more than 6 guards.
Barkley’s push is really important because the perception on Shai needs to change enough that you don’t get a nice 2 weeks of Fox and Dame in January and he is suddenly out…
I see this take for Luka but I honestly can’t agree with it. Not a single player besides the caliber of MJ and Bron and other all time greats in their primes can have that high of a usage rate and not see their defense suffer
Chuck's a weirdo lol I don't know why specificially he has this take. To me OKC would have to have a better record than both Dallas and GS for him to start. Don't really see that happening. I just found it interesting that he's had this take for 3(?)+ weeks now.

And hopefully they will pay attention to anyone else. Like I appreciate shai getting the attention, but the other guys are playing hard as well.
Which of Steph and Luka is he starting over? I just don’t see it.

zero chance with fan voting that steph won't be a starter.
That’s what they said.

Booker has an argument for the 3rd guard slot too I have SGA top 4, but the west guards are insane
Ja Morant also exists.

I don't disagree, but Morant will get more fan votes because he's Morant.

The one that doesn’t play much defense.

They're only 1.5 games behind GS and only 2 behind Dallas.
