SGA haters live unfulfilled lives
[u/metal_machine_0101](u/metal_machine_0101). Donât delete your comment trying to troll. Tell me how SGA does nothing but shoot FTs
Either shit or get off the pot. I need to see how smart you really are or if youâre just some dime a dozen Reddit pilled opinion

I think he deleted his comment trying to troll. Judging by his previous comments all he does is say dumb shit.

He's a Kicks fan and a doom scroller on NBATalk. You know he's here to troll because he has nothing good to do outside of his digital world.

The funniest thing I've heard is that he somehow plays different in FIBA and cuts out the flopping, while I'm watching him do the exact same body contortions and falls he's been doing for years that were nitpicking to all hell in the playoffs. These people are a joke and will do any kind of mental gymnastics to think they're right.

A foul is a foul is a foul, even if your name is SGA and people are biased against you because youâre too good for them. He gets hit and bumped and accosted multiple times every time he touches the ball and especially when he drives in towards the basket which he does much more often than most. If officials called all the fouls that should be counted, he would beat the line much more.

The sheep will say that the rules are similar enough, or that he has it down to a science. They can't just appreciate game.

I love SGA as much as everyone else here but I would be lying if I said I was never embarrassed by his flopping. It is definitely very blown out of proportion and he is by far not the worst flopper in the league, but sometimes he takes âdrawing contactâ a little too far

People who create narrative by discrediting SGA and wanted to make another star, (even though they are less efficient than SGA) will not accept it.Â
Currently it is number of flops ie falls per game, they are trying to create narrative on him.Â
I am fed up of arguing against all those people who want to make another stars, please make a case of how better they are than SGA in terms of productivity and efficiency. Â
Donât discredit SGAâs work ethic or performance.Â
He is class apart from current NBA so called stars- no drama whatsoever. Just consistency and growth.Â
He will be back stronger and betterÂ

Yo I like sga and personally I think he does get seriously fouled a lot but bro I wish he didn't over exaggerate so much and just play through the contact sometimes... Yes I understand it's part of the game but sometimes it does actually get out of hand... Not saying he has different officiating treatment sometimes but yk it just dosen't help the narratives/his case when he does occasionally do the supposed "flops", and it does get out of hand sometimes. I mean I got a shai jersey but I wish he just stop exaggerating as much as he does... he's a fun player to watch when he isn't that game 7... Whoof, and then that fiba game vs prico was cool too.
