Shai & OKC Thunder Have MASTERED The Art Of Spacing!

The Celtics have the best record in the NBA they also arguably got the best perimeter defense in the league with Drew holiday and Derek white now you may ask yourself did that matter to Shay and to that I say absolutely not he did whatever he pleased and put up 36 points

Efficiently on their head he’s on a different wave length right now and the way the Thunder are built and the way they play sets them up for great success offensively and this game perfectly showed you why let’s go to the film overall the OKC Thunder are masters of

Spacing first play of the game Chad is rolling hard the right side is filled with traffic but look at all the space on the other side good luck guarding him in that situation burst the speed crate contact bumped Derk white completely off of his spot look at the separation

Created the master of the mid-range jumper we are witnessing then Shay is walking it up the floor a couple minutes later this time they just clear the whole entire left side now it’s ISO time with ample space and opportunity between the legs behind the back gets the defender to retreat he senses that

Disrespect Jabs to Baron backs up the defender even more insane space created and he hits the three-pointer the Celtics got porzingis on giddy on purpose so he can roam off their worst shooter but giddy has been shooting 38% in the month of December so Shay says I’m going to take this opportunity to

Trust my teammate look how quick that first step is right by Drew holiday with ease kick out to Giddy he knocks it down and when he’s hitting three-pointers that’s a soul Crusher for the other team because now it’s like who do you roam off of you really can’t and overall when

Teams do try to take away the mid-range and drive from Shay the Thunder are so good at taking it Advantage plays like this just happen consistently we go to the game against Brooklyn Shay draws two Isaiah Joe then beats the close out and gets a paint touch peep the weak side

Movement while he’s driving simple but it helps Jaylen Williams then beats the close out and Isaiah Joe never stopped moving the defense just couldn’t keep up with the drives and the movement from the Thunder and stuff like this happens consistently hence why they are top five

Offense and hence why you got to think twice about helping onche this is the perfect example of how OKC has mastered spacing early in transition 20 seconds on the shot clock naturally as a team the spacing is Pitch Perfect clear wideopen driving lane for Shay he hits

The Jets Brown does not want to help off of Dort now it’s an easy finish at The Rim listen to this Thunder players shooting 40% from three this season wig Williams Wallace Berton Dort Joe Waters jayd dub Chad SAR and simply that will make the defense think twice about

Converging on Shay’s drives recklessly next possession they get a stop and Shay collapses the defense granting ludor a wideopen three Miss but kenrich Williams gets the offensive rebound and finds Shay notice they are in perfect position as a team Jaylen Williams 42% from three is occupied buying Horford at this

Moment in Shay’s head he knows he has the driving lane right so he hits the between the legs burst the speed if Horford digs on him easy kick out he doesn’t though white cannot keep up and Shay’s 611 wingspan allows him to finish quickly to avoid the block 10 seconds on

The shot clock on the right you got Aaron Wiggins a 48% three-point shooter to the left Isaiah Joe a sniper Cas Wallace a rookie shooting 43% from three and then a lob threat Chad in the dunker spot spot this guarantees Shay an ISO opportunity with limited help he just

Walks Sam Hower down with stutter hesitation like dance moves behind the back oh got to feel bad for the white boy pull up yep the Celtics have had enough no more isos well here’s the issue Shay crosses over it fools Drew holiday Hower switches Horford then

Helps to take away the driving lane but now it’s Tatum in a one-on two situation Quick Pass to Joe and now the close out is just too late he makes him pay and then in the second half Drew holiday actually stays in front but Derrick White decides to double problem is

Jaylen Williams is now butt booty naked open for three Cash Money wet wet and then you got the Twan game of Shay and Chad to fall back on simply you create a line at the bottom of the screen now they have the whole top of the key to themselves perfect spacing porzingis has

To help since Tatum got Sauced up to take away the driving lane pass the chat wide open three again same thing Shay takes his time here seems like he’s going into his signature mid-range jumper but it’s a pump fake gets Tatum jumping and porzingis forgets about Chad

A little bit ample space to Fire and it’s good overall one of the most underrated aspects of Shay’s game is his speed especially at his size I mean he was blowing by Drew holiday on so many occasions with ease and you stop him initially he has counter on top of

Counter holay off the edge here Shay says okay I’ll just hit the right to left spin move and then my speed and length will just take over oh by the way he can finish with either the left or the right hand equally so you can’t force him somewhere to have a better

Chance at stopping him turns out he’s like amidex trius or something probably pronounced that wrong but the point is he don’t got a weak hand and we’ve seen that first step all video Defenders can’t keep up with it so he pairs that with a jab stepper roon as he’s d

Dribbling and stop it here in the defender’s head based on his body you could guess he’s about to hit the Jets and drive left downhill nope despite it looking that way jab step and look at how Hower reacts he’s so fearful of the first Quick Step the burst he’s way back

Step back insane separation created as a result he has Defenders on a string and they fear Him going downhill and the icing on the cake he’s got a mid post game like he’s Kobe Bryan or Michael Jordan he gets deep post position Shimmy Shake one way back the other way into

The turnaround fade away that contest don’t affect him bucket right in your face in the last week the Thunder had beaten the t-wolves by 23 points the Nuggets by 26 points and of course last night they beat the best record in the league the Boston Celtics three of the

Best teams in the league no problem the Thunder are here to stay for a long time let me know your thought below and if you got time check out my other videos and most importantly have yourself a great day and peace out
