He’s nowhere as dramatic as MJ was as a player …

He doesn’t always play the same way as far as I see, when did MJ take a back seat?

He’s a great 1, no doubt.
You can’t stay on topic. Jordan didn’t win until he started playing with others for real and that meant he didnt always take the shot. Your memory sucks apparently.

Ummm….

He is arguably the most consistent player in the league.

Don’t know what you talking about.

Then why did you type what you did about Brunson being lazy? Trying to change the subject now?

A lot I’m sure.

Changing up pick and roll coverages for sure is one thing he did.

Just because he didn’t use the primitive high school answer of playing zone like you wanted, doesn’t mean he wasn’t adjusting.
Primitive? lol

Many teams in the NBA use zone defenses


Sorry bro, but when you have players who clearly don’t want to play aggressive D you must implement zone . It not only changes up how your opponent attacks the rim, or not , …it save the legs

If you don’t see that these 2 are clearly quicker on the offensive side then the d side , you’re not payin attention

The switch up that Thibs played make no sense if you’re lazy to begin with

I said nothin of his consistency . He’s the MVP of league. Stop with the obvious nonsense

He’s doesn’t display the physicality that MJ displayed imo

Of course not.

MJ is considered by many to be the GOAT for a reason.

SGA is just getting started.

If he is the best player in the league for a decade then maybe you can make those comparisons.

This is absolutely a comment about SGA’s lack of consistency and you made it 15 minutes ago.

I have a pet goldfish with a better memory than you.

The NBA would be in a better place today had MJ never happened

Draymonds thoughts on the Thunder don’t matter because he thinks no one is taking them seriously because of the after game group interviews. Stupid take, but consider the source. Caruso is definitely up there in terms of importance though.

Pretty spot on...Caruso changes the energy of the game and does all of the little things. He's kind of a swiss army knife for the Thunder...

He watches what's happening and then goes in and provides what the Thunder need.

Offense, defense, energy, whatever...

I don't know if he's the 3rd most important player...but he's a huge part of what makes them so good.
