Incredible game from Shai after a bad game against Brooklyn. One thing that doesn’t get talked about enough is how little he turns the ball over.

MVP things
We’re not even supposed to be this good yet. Future is so bright
Shai was lookin like Paul pierce tn
Most of this sub is too young and won’t know so let’s just call him kid Canada
Some dude in the gamethread saying Tatum locked up Shai tonight
Spent the whole night defended by Derrick White, Jaylen Brown, and sometimes Jayson Tatum. If that trio can’t slow him down nobody can
Shai was absolutely kryptonite per usual, but C’s thought they were going to be able to clamp him lol
He was cooking our backcourt so bad that they had to put Tatum on him. Luckily he slowed down once that happened
He’s the MVP and it’s not particularly close either
How Is this dude not in top 5 MVP conversations lmao
I honestly don’t think anyone in the league has played and is playing better than Shai this season lol. I’d maybe say Embiid, but Shai is significantly more available than him
Shai “X Axis Operator” Gilgeous puts on another magic show without jumping one single time. He just maneuvers, like a pivot joint.
I genuinely love this man
After a bad game against Brooklyn? He had 24/6/4 on 7-15 shooting lol. The whole team showed up and it was one of the best team games I’ve seen OKC play.
Yeah he’s my mvp I’m sorry Luka he is my mvp now
He had a bad game in Brooklyn?!?! When?
Shai is the MVP – Thunder need to be on national TV more
MVP him
Shai’s lack of turnovers are very impressive for a high usage scorer. There are guys with similar TOV% such as Kawhi and Maxey yet they score less, pass less and have a lower USG% than him. Pretty much all the other superstars have a TOV% in the mid to low 10’s yet Shai is at 7.5%. Then you factor in his TS% is third among top players in the league, he’s an efficiency king.
No turnovers… Against a ridiculously good defense. Very impressive
MVP and these guys have 15 first round picks.
SGA was awesome. Chet is cool too. They’ve got shooters everywhere. Kristaps was a menace, Tatum locked in late… Great game. That was a lot of fun.
This may have been my favorite Celtics game this year so far and it was one of the few that we have lost. SGA balled tf out. Tatum played crazy the last quarter. Smh crazy good game only could have been better if they could have completed the comeback but tbh I’m not even mad.
Bad game against Brooklyn?
He played 3 quarters and passed the ball
How tf you play bad in a blowout
SGA is shooting at almost 55% for the season. Kobe never had his efficiency, and if he keeps this up (hopefully), he’ll be much better than Kobe when he retires.
