Ja us clearly better. This board loves overrating one off seasons or players with a green light. SGA is Beal part 2

Lebron made it to the finals with that cleveland team.

Bird would have won 4 rings with that team, in this weak ass era of basketball.

I do think it’s close but I’m not sure if Beal is a fair comparison for SGA

Shai is already better at 24 than Beal ever was and more efficient as a volume scorer by a decent amount. The Beal comparison is a bad one imo.

I’m taking SGA without too much thought. His game looks more bulletproof and harder to stop.

SGA has been great for years and it's not like Ja has any less of a green light than he does. In fact, Ja has a higher usage rate.
