Can the Thunder win a championship in the next 3 years?

[@NormanEspina-ov6bn]

Maybe

[@casimodo285]

Definetly

[@jayherbogaming]

they need another star to do so

[@crazychickenthatsdumbbbbbbb]

Yes

[@user-kr5jk7sz3y]

Yes they can

[@Zaghzackio]

I've been a huge fan of Shai since highschool, but I never could have anticipated him becoming this good! He's a bona-fide top 10 player in the league

[@chromeposites]

He went to McNabb in Hamilton

[@Quiver-gl4hz]

he top 3

[@markdemort]

top 5 and he ain't 5

[@hail7777]

top 3

[@clproductions7609]

I used to be a huge shai fan but once the Thunder started rebuilding, I just stopped watching him play as much since they’d always shut him down at the end of the year

[@nashyvan6667]

Shai is inspiring fr, no one thought he would be like this. He said in an interview that you gotta believe in yourself.

[@BlakeHunter1111]

Shai is one of my favourite players

[@MangoTroubles-007]

Yeah, I did not vote him for MVP

[@Victor-qj7os]

​@@MangoTroubles-007yeah cause you weren't even considered to vote 💀💀

[@callumr-w3885]

@@MangoTroubles-007I voted for Zion

[@callumr-w3885]

[@Coaster480]

I voted luka

[@multiyapples]

I’m glad Shia Gilgeous-Alexander became successful. I hope he continues to be successful in whatever he does.

[@Jourden0426]

That Thunder Dallas series was heartbreaking but sooooo goooodddd 😭😭😭🔥🔥

[@arjunadan3812]

Shai was better than Luka injuried & bullied...OKC was the thoughtest Mavs opponent.

[@Prot_GD]

He's the future of the OKC Thunder🔥🔥🔥

[@slimfadey6157]

Future of the nba

[@timszysteelz5907]

He is the present and future

[@TheCreativeWriter_]

He's the timeline

[@chronostv2071]

On the long run , The clippers really fumbled the bag 😢

[@hajime2k]

As a Clips fan I was OUTRAGED he got traded. The Clips were looking short-term and should have won in 2020 or 2021.

[@AutoArtemAuto]

Next to trading Byron Scott to the Lakers, this has gotta hurt.

[@Redstorm1220]

I’m so glad I was able to get a pic with Shai and for him to sign my OKC thunder hat. He was injured for that pre season game last year so he just kindly went around giving autographs and selfies with fans

[@zacmatanog1206]

man i still remember the 2019 playoffs when he is playing under doc rivers, that man is impressive idk why clippers trade him. even kd said that sga is the best in his class draft, been fan since 2019!!

[@AduKofs]

Whats crazy is that he's still got A LOT of juice in the tank! My MVP 🔥💯

[@JoeMama-hu8nr]

Your mvp? Sure I guess youre a blind and deaf man

[@OhioSportsCast]

Shai is the best Canadian basketball player in Canada today and the future.

[@TheMick126]

Jamal murray

[@Titaniam4]

Nah if shai was on the nuggets would win 65 games

[@legcoolkid]

​@@TheMick126😂fuck no

[@Acv2_Yadri]

jamal murray has a ring, Shai would never get one

[@Mr.Byrnes]

@@Acv2_YadriNah, you’re delusional if you actually think that

[@user-kr5jk7sz3y]

Its crazy how sga is only 26 and keep getting better each year for the thunder

[@spencercampianu7886]

Shai is by far my favourite player! Amazing video

[@johnpaulgonzalez9016]

Sam Presti cant deny he under estimated SGA when he traded PG. He got a superstar and went on to full contender mode right away. Unlike other organizations that will still tank and stick with the initial plan, Presti changed his plans and went on to full contender ASAP.

[@ryanamburgy2791]

LETS GOOOOO SHAI VIDEO

[@user-us9ic9yx5h]

I've been waiting for this video 🔥🔥

[@SpencerSun-sg8tc]

Shai is a future mvp

[@hardmony4012]

When Shai was played at Clips, and Bones Hyland at Denver, i thougth both of them will be next superstars for their teams)

[@zetsu_pdf]

Finally made a video talking about shai

[@SekarmiKiyoshi]

Nice vid.👍

[@dominicbrogsdale3348]

" I won't make it to 21" XXX said that to his manager a week before he passed Rest in peace man

[@danielfoy1137]

Great breakdown! Didn’t know much about him until watching this video. All around great job!! 👏🏿 💯👍🏿

[@Vayee]

I js wish that max contract, money, superstar demanding coming backhome like KD, doesn't ruin the current OKC. They're fun to watch, such a vibe atleast for me as a gen-z, and if they continue on this very path they might win even more in the near future

[@liamlightsey9037]

Good vid 👍

[@spce956]

All-stars carry their teams. SUPERSTARS CARRY THE LEAGUE

[@fatehfini5856]

He’s gonna win a ring someday

[@markjones2518]

Shai is so talented

[@hungo7720]

Shai is the most talented and athletic Canadian player ever recorded. Just look at how SGA carried the OKC to the playoffs and was only subdued by Luka magic.

[@busdriver69421]

Vince Carter is American he just played in Toronto

[@qr3wjustin561]

Shai outplayed Luka we lost to that trash can pj Washington

[@MmGocrazy-rs1cc]

Wiggins is more athletic

[@Destroyedan]

He’s going to be the best OKC player

[@j-307]

he gonna win atleast 4 championships for them

[@WcoopW]

@@j-307hell no and im a thunder fan

Shai... what?! 😂

[@jakokah]

shai came to toronto yesterday at a basketball court and i got his cousins signature

[@FDiOfi]

Please make a piece about Nick Van Exel! I can't find any good video aside from his highlights and interviews mentioning how good he was. I'm lazy to read his wiki😆.

[@uncleclark]

NICE VID

[@forrestfiree]

A true underdog story 🔥

[@idker1c]

Huge fan of shai I knew he was gonna be amazing ever since I watched him with the clippers

[@Ballon124]

As kentucky basketball fan, I always preferred him over kevin knox. I had liked him from college into the pros

[@roseannleadbetter1598]

Make a video on Giannis career so far in the NBA please

[@thepoopcast6609]

Fire 🔥

[@gabriellcesario]

The best Canadian (born) of the basketball history

[@ItzM36Spadez]

What’s crazy is that Doc Rivers warned Kawhi not to trade away Shai cuz he knew Shai would be good

[@axelcastillo6369]

Can you make the video of the 10 best players in the 2024 playoffs please I am waiting.

[@chad_b]

I hope he comes to the raptors at some point 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@dariuszmich]

i live in etobicoke... which is about 20 min from hamilton. anyway, my point is, as a canadain, i'm proud to have been a contributing factor to SGAs success becasue I live so close to him

[@YourFriendlyNeighborhood_Void]

Met sga while in hs, w dude

[@8Kobe24Steph30]

I am telling you all shai is the next face of the nba

[@ronaldholmes7931]

If you a Kentucky fan we been know about Shai about every guard rlly

[@naluminolinyandi6755]

He is my favorite player in the nba

[@ronbrown7941]

The Clippers really messed up by listening to Kawhii. This kid is a Superstar

[@casimodo285]

OUR CANADIAN REPRESENTANT !

[@cheap272]

Im a big thunder hater n a celtics fan but being realistic they are 1 consitent all nba calibur player from being on par with a healthy celtics team if jalen williams could be the scottie pippen for shai it would be nice but he needs to level up his game in all aspects but especially playmaking n a little bit defensivly or else thunder gonna need to go find another offensive guy n hope their defense is good (i know they got some good personnel but i dont think they r gonna be like twolves good on that side of the ball this upcoming year) also hoping they r healthy as always🙏

[@sureshnayak2322]

Background music name?

[@Grumpygrumpygrumpy]

damn, the Clippers just lost PG for nothing and giving up a ton for SGA, how stupid is that franchise?

[@alexescutia4805]

Only part they messed up in was not getting anything for pg. that trade got them 2019 kawhi and mvp and dpoy candidate pg

[@JohnDo187]

@@alexescutia4805and what did Kawhi bring them? A box of chocolates

[@alexescutia4805]

@@JohnDo187 what the hell does that have to do with the move at the time of the trade?? Every team in the league that isn’t a contender is making that deal for those two at the time. I love clowning the clippers too but Jesus let’s not be ignorant

[@angelruiz1113]

Dang the okc do look good in the future

[@sageturtl4996]

an hour is hella early

[@PhilippVoegtli]

I like SGA a lot.

[@TheHuskyK9]

With Paul George now in Philly, we can safely say that the Clippers trade is one of the worst trades in NBA history. Thunder’s future is bright, while the Clips are already heading back to mediocrity

the coach is called Mark, not Mike
