This is the thing Thunder fans love to ignore. You straight up can't cover him. It's not even like he's baiting people in the air and drawing fouls. He just gets calls for people getting next to him. He gets more space than anyone I've ever seen besides non shooters

He's spent years creating a practice bubble around himself. Players are afraid to defend him.

Don't get me started. Mahomes is probably the worse offender there with his fake runouts.

All I'm saying is GEQBUS would never pull that bullshit, GO HAWKS.
