Has the Warriors’ title window closed?
Is SGA an outlier?
What’s Paolo Banchero’s one weak spot?

I was one of the first on the Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to the Suns train, but at this point, it’s pretty clear that ain’t happening.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander this season has the highest FG% by a guard scoring 30+ points since Michael Jordan 32 years ago.
SGA is currently averaging 2 steals and 1.5 blocks. The only guard to ever do that over a season… Michael Jordan.

More on this storyline
Chase Hughes: Kyle Kuzma says he believes Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Thunder is a “top-5 guard” in the NBA right now. High praise. -via Twitter @ChaseHughesNBCS / November 15, 2022
Gilgeous-Alexander is currently reaching thresholds of 31.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, 5.0 assists, and 2.0 steals per game. The only players to finish the season accomplishing all of those: Michael Jordan, Allen Iverson, and James Harden (when he won MVP). Add in thresholds of at least one block per game as well, which Gilgeous-Alexander is currently achieving, and you’ve got just two seasons in which M.J. won MVP. Before we get too hyped, though, let’s address the elephant in the room. Since the 1975-76 season, only three players in league history have won MVP in the same season in which their team did not win 50 games. The latest projections have Oklahoma City between 28 wins (via ESPN) and 30 wins (via FiveThirtyEight). -via For The Win / November 15, 2022
Tim Bontemps: Final: Thunder 143, Knicks 135. Dominant performance from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, as the Thunder get whatever they want all day. 37-5-8 for SGA; Cam Reddish with 26 points on 10-17 shooting to lead the Knicks. -via Twitter @TimBontemps / November 13, 2022
