Shai Gilgeous-Alexander does not pull the weight or perhaps the long season, maybe the motivation has not yet reached its peak.
Gilgeous-Alexander himself suggests this. Oklahoma City Thunder is looking for more than the playoffs.
Think of it as a warning for the rest of the NBA, Thunder, the best team of the Western Conference all season.
Gilgeous-Alexander does not think that his career is on the verge of the first MVP. And after a serial sweep in this first round.
After Thunder’s first round series against Memphis Grizzlies and 25.0 percent of the 3-point range, Gilgeous-Alexander decided to do: to shoot or dive into the ball.
“In the past, I would definitely move away from that moment because of the place where my shooting went,” Gilgeous-Alexander said that semi-finals were guaranteed after a place at the Western Conference. “I think I took a step in mentally, but I think I did this all season, and at that moment, he paid the night we needed.
“This is everything, just to do this. I was loyal to who I am and who I developed, we got a W tonight.”
If there was a time when the NBA scoring champion would be postponed to others with 32.7 points per game, then not. 38 points in the game 4 and 54.2 percent of 24 attempts.
And bets are just rising, so the Gilgeous-Alexander Conference Semi-semifinals will be much more busy.
Next can be a match against Los Angeles Clippers – just The team that exchanges Gilgeous-Alexander After a season-and Thunder still benefits from awards that have become a big unilateral agreement.
Another possibility is a match with 2023 NBA champions Denver Nuggets. The teams divided four normal season matches this season. On March 10, Nuggets scored at least 140 points against Thunder last seven times. Certainly Thunder, remember.
For now, Thunder is waiting to learn his next competitors. Apparently advantage?
Orum I’m not sure, Gil Gilgeous-Alexander said. “To be honest, it can work against us in both ways. It can add some pass. I think it can add some freshness. I think trying to find a balance between these two will be important for a long time until it reaches the next series.
Thunder spent a week between the end of the normal season and the onset of playoffs, continued to play opponents and were good in the first round.
The fact that stars and leaders give this aspect of the proceedings is a good sign. The idea that the game wants to move forward is even better.
“I don’t know where this UP-Ins incident came from. I think a series of hell stolen,” he said. “… This is a flawed game. Shai will never go to 25 for 25. I hope he does.
Don’t make mistakes: Thunder is now feeling good about where they are standing and it is completely comfortable with what is necessary for the next way.
Gilgeous-Alexander took Thunder to the conference semifinals for the second time in the last three seasons. Now they seem ready to exceed this level.
“Try to be a better team than we are in the series (in the first round), Gilgeous-Alexander said, Gilgeous-Alexander, Gilgeous-Alexander, Gilgeous-Alexander said.
Warnings for the rest of the league could not be clearer.
“We should bring a great focus and intention to stay locked among the series Mark Daigneault, Mark Daigneault. I hope we all do this.
