Snoop has declared Shai is just like him lol

Snoop Dogg on Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander: 'He kind of remind me of me'

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander edited Snoop Dogg into a Thunder jersey after compliments from the rapper.

I love Snoop but his expertise leans more musical and cannabinoid.

This is the same motherfucker that voted Kessler ROY.

Now Reaves is Brunson.

Dear GAWD…LOL

Dear GAWD…LOL

What a fucking idiot. Jalen Brunson? WTF. Austin Reaves is more Steph/Lebron/KD caliber player

Dear GAWD…LOL

Skip Bayless better watch his back.....because that Larsen character is coming for his job.

Definitely 1st ballot HOF...even right now...I mean, fuck it..why even wait?

Lol 4 years 100 mil

I love what the kid has done but that deal would go immediately to the Jordan Poole bin. Only slightly better because Reaves is a decent defender.

BTW Jordan Poole with less than 20 minutes in a playoff game.

Whoops.

 

[DJ Fieri]

D Wade might be even better, good call

Wade is a good one but SGA better from distance.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Whoa, whoa....pump those brakes.

Sarcasm bro

 

[tlance]

Wade is a good one but SGA better from distance.

Wade is the best comp.

SGA is not a very good 3 point shooter.

And Wade would shoot more and shoot them better if he entered the league in this era.

Outside of Lakers fans, I’m probably the highest on this kid.

FFS, just let him develop a bit more.

Yeah, not a good comp at all.

But, I will say it is better than the lazy Caruso comp that some tried to make before Reaves broke out.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

It’s sounding like Shai may be 1st team.

He is.

 

[The Q]

When someone makes a ridiculous vote, they should lose their privilege to vote.

Would keep voters honest.

Anyone who really believes a Kessler vote is fair shouldn’t be voting anyway.

He was the analytics champ

By far

Makes it reasonable alone

Roy is not an offensive award

I disagree

Brunson is a true offensive breakdown option at the point and not the best defender, he’s also a legit big 3 type player

The other two do make their bones defensively first and foremost, and are role players on good teams

Not saying either is perfect, but I’d do Caruso over Brunson

Reaves is a 3 and D role player

That’s not a knock. They’re valuable

He’s closer to a James posey or one of the martin twins than either of these comps

It's beginning to appear any center with a crappy backup is being a touch overrated.

This is even more egregious

Kessler averaged 9 and 8. Only 23 mpg. A horrendous free throw shooter.

If it wasn't for analytics he easily takes a backseat on the first team to Ivey.

But ROY? Lol

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

This mofo was on my team a year ago.

If true, ban for life from any, and every, professional leagues.

!

Michael Beasley doing something dumb? No way?!?!?!?

Here I thought Bledsoe was just washed or had the yips.

Motherfucker could have been point shaving.

Eh, if only that were the root of the Clippers shitacular failures….lol

So, he’s budget KCP?
