KD isn’t that guy at all anymore

Beal was never that guy and is getting worse

Booker is a good player but not good enough to be that guy - he is literally Murray but KD ain’t Jokic…at least anymore

And Reeves is that guy - surprisingly he just keeps balling regardless of it’s LBJ or Luka…

Admittedly haven’t much a whole lot of Bucks basketball, but it appears that Taurene Prince still sucks.

SGA is the best player in basketball this season.

I know this will be a unpopular statement, but I truly believe he's the best player this year.

Thunder really went +9 while Shai was on the bench. This team is crazy stacked.

I wonder how much the elbow is bothering Giannis. Only 4 shots in the half is very surprising.

Thunder are walling Giannis off and the dude is scared of taking jumpshots. Such a putrid offense to watch.

Taurene Prince shouldn’t be starting in the NBA.
