If they don’t make the conference finals this year they are going to start getting the lob city, Embid Sixers treatment from the media. This shyt changes quick. It would be like the 15 warriors not even making the conference finals, complete disaster.
2015 Warriors had more playoff experience though. OKC just made the playoffs for the first time in four years last season.

Ehhh, no excuses imo. This will be Shias 4th post season Run, Hartensteins 4th, Caruso won a ring.
Nba is a team sport, playoff success is up to rather Jalen Williams shows up and if chet is healthy. Not worried about any of those other guys you listed.

laughable. Only jordan and wilt had better scoring peak than 18-19 Harden

I know harden's ref baiting was annoying as hell but no current player is touching that harden season scoring wise

No excuses cause they aren't my tean but it would be no shock at all if they DIDN'T make the Western Conference Finals. If you call that a disappointment then so be it.

@triplehate

I legit forgot I've made this thread, but it validates the new one I made even more. Where is his historic playoff moment to match his (alleged) historic regular season? Because you can have a historic playoff moment and not win the series, not win the championship. Butler most recently had that in his Heat Finals runs...

But Butler never had the momentum behind him Shai has had this season, in a regular season...

Come on, dog. Shai just may not be That Guy. He may be a great player, a fun watch. He may not be That Guy, though!

This thread was just a set up, if OKC were to win the title OP would been talking that "Is Shai's peak as a guard higher than Kobe or Steph's?" shyt

Now OKC looking shaky, a new thread is made on some "Shai isn't that guy, why aren't they criticizing him the way they do Bron?"

That's the basic gist of it.
🤣 yall love making up shyt, its all good though 🤣 I'm the first mf on here to question anything about Shai and I did that months ago. Wasn't no one else questioning this alleged "historic guard season" he's having before I did; him winning a championship wouldn't change that...

I was also the first nikka questioning Giannis, before he won a title, by saying his track record didn't show him as an annual driver of championship contention....and I got proven right about that. Giannis has one year in his 12-year career that isn't like the rest...

Mf's never point out all the times I'm right but on the off chance I'm wrong about something, yall nikkas clowning 😆

I wanna see how Shai finish this postseason but I could be right about him too. Ain't got shyt to do with LeBron, either...

Funny how you're admitting to being the first one questioning the legacy of all these players. I wonder what could possibly be the motive behind that.

Not surprised this is a conspiracy to you. Not surprised at all 🤣

My entire post history from the very beginning, is established with me saying I hold all superstars to superstar accountability. You like searching my posts, you'll find that in my post history...

I'm not questioning anyone's legacy at 7 years in, the paint on these guys' canvas isn't dried. What I am saying is that once a guy ascends to the level Shai has, I hold him to that level of accountability...

Its not a legacy play, it's a "right now" thing. I'm probably the most consistent basketball poster on here, the problem is yall so used to 95% of posters here blowing with the wind depending on who they do, or do not, like...

Whether I like a guy or not, if his play has warranted a certain stature, I uphold the standard of that stature...

I've been watching the NBA since I was 10 (1999), and been having basketball conversations wwaaaayyyyyy before I had an account here. We were having conversations on the playgrounds, had em in jail, had em in prison, had em at work, had em with family, had em with complete strangers in line at the store...

I don't have an issue with cats disagreeing with me about anything. I'll never understand internet conspiracy logic though...
