    There's only so much you want one player to do as far as scoring, and he's pretty much at that level. It's unlikely he suddenly becomes an elite playmaker out of nowhere. Maybe he has room for defensive improvement, I dont know.

    He may just be in his final form, which would be fine. I was impressed with his poise in their play-in win last year when the opponents keyed in on him in the first half, he didnt try to force it, he moved the ball to get his team going, and once his teammates hit some shots and the defense started to spread out a bit more he took advantage and dominated the second half. It was an impressive job of reading the game, being patient, and feeling out opportunities.

    What will determine how far up he moves in public perception will have more to do with what OKC does at this point than anything in his own game.
    100%

    He’s a phenomenal individual player and if he plays this way on a formidable team then he’s absolutely a superstar.

    Surely, he did bring the thunder to the 4th-6th seed during the last rs.

    Wow. This guy is truly a moron.

    Does he know how to use the internet to see what seed the Thunder ended up?

    his control is amazing


    brought the ball up the court with pressure and got to the rim a ton of times this fiba run, faking out every defender


    he can get his shot any time too even over elite defenders like bridges


    his combination of ballhandling and shooting and finishing is unreal. I didnt know he was this good.

    Yes, i think he could be significant with a title-contending team.
