OKC took a game off 2012 Bron, DWade and Bosh when KD and Russ were only 22-23 years old. Spurs struggling to get a game off a Jalen Brunson whoβs shooting 35%, itβs not the same.
Draymond Green:
βShai, you've reached a new level of greatness my man... you got sports media coming out and talking about what they don't like about your greatness, as if SGA is running up and down the court with the whistle in his mouth calling a foul for himself... you all think the NBA is that easy to where this guy just flops and goes to the free throw line and he becomes the back to back MVP? We really gonna dumb the NBA down to that?β

Mike Breen on SGA:
"Does Shai sell calls sometimes? Absolutely, but so do 287 other players in the NBAβ¦ When they weren't a championship contender, nobody complained. They only complain now because they are winning.β

Spurs have shot more free throws than OKC so far in this series.
Wemby and SGA have taken the same number of free throws in this series.
Spurs are #6 in free throws in the playoffs. OKC is #14 in free throws in the playoffs.
So the discourse has moved to SGA falling.
