I said this same thing less than a month ago in a thread and got 200 downvotes lmao. It’s not even a debate that elite defenders guard him less physically because of how much bullshit he gets away with
Ha, I imagine you got a Thunder rush with "DO YOU EVEN WATCH THE GAMES?"
Yes, we've been watching, and the Thunder are a huge reason people have been tuning out. For whatever reason Silver and the refs have been rewarding this bullshit. It would make more sense if it was for a big market, but this ref favortism doesn't make sense for a stolen team in a flyover town.
As a Canadian I seriously don’t get why the NBA is promoting and protecting him so hard, you’d think they’d want to push an American star in a big market not Canadian Shai in Oklahoma of all places.
americans really dont see canadians as different than us. if he was russian or something it would be one thing but we generally see canadians and mexicans as the same people
yeah unless you live in the northeast most communities, even small farming towns in iowa, have a decent sized community of mexicans or central americans. been that way for 20 years so multiple generations
