00:00Talk to my guys here, and it may be hearing out
00:03Shea Gilgis-Alexander's case for best player in the world.
00:06Because the series against the Nuggets happened.
00:11It had the two options.
00:14The Thunder won the series.
00:17Nobody had the conversation.
00:18Nobody thought it was interesting.
00:19Nobody thought there was apparently a Shea case.
00:21I found that to be a little bit confusing.
00:23I saw some say that Jokic was the best player in the series emphatically.
00:26What series were they watching?
00:27Did they swoop in for games one and five, and that was it?
00:31Did they skip the three-game stretch where he was under 40% from the field
00:34in all three games?
00:36Shea Gilgis-Alexander, one-league MVP.
00:39This desk here, I imagine, is in the moment all expecting
00:42Shea Gilgis-Alexander to win finals MVP?
00:45I would think so.
00:46Yes, absolutely.
00:46Does anyone know the last player to win MVP and finals MVP in the same season?
00:50I'm going to guess LeBron James.
00:52Oh, guys, these guys are trivia.
00:54Whoa, really?
00:55Yeah, you better believe it.
00:56Two years in a row in Miami.
00:57Shout out to the king.
00:58Now, that would mean...
01:00I think we were going there at some point.
01:01Whoa, what are you talking about, guys?
01:02It's just the answer.
01:04Technically, this is just strictly facts.
01:06Correct?
01:06What do you mean?
01:07There's no bias.
01:09What's my ass about the fact that...
01:10I just said there's no bias.
01:11I just said it's strictly facts.
01:12I mean, your microphone's arguing with you a little bit.
01:14Yeah, I know.
01:14They're trying to cut me out back there.
01:17What's not going to happen?
01:17Now, here's the deal.
01:20Now, here's the deal.
01:21I'm going to wiggle until this thing picks me up.
01:23Here's the deal.
01:24All right?
01:25So, I try and talk to my teammates here.
01:28Oh, my God.
01:30That means that SGA is now favored to do something that Jokic didn't do.
01:36Giannis didn't do.
01:37Steph, Durant, Harden, Westbrook.
01:41Steph did it.
01:41He did it once.
01:43No, he didn't.
01:43Finals MVP and MVP in the same year?
01:47No.
01:48That's why the trivia was the first since LeBron.
01:50Are you going to actually fact check me right now?
01:52I'm pretty...
01:52I'm not the first since LeBron.
01:54It is the first since LeBron, but didn't Steph do it in...
01:56LeBron did it when he was with Miami.
02:00This is just a treat because now I get to mention that Steph absolutely didn't do it.
02:03Okay.
02:03Steph won MVP.
02:05Iguodala won Finals MVP.
02:07Steph won unanimous MVP.
02:08You know what happened that year?
02:10The 3-1 comeback.
02:11Yeah.
02:11All right.
02:12So, we handled...
02:13Tom.
02:14I'm not saying...
02:15Oh, facts.
02:16I mean...
02:17Again, people are going to get mad at me like he didn't bring up the 2016 NBA Finals.
02:21Did Jordan do it?
02:22Oh, sure did.
02:23Sure did.
02:24Do you know how many guys in between?
02:26Zero?
02:26No.
02:27Two.
02:28Shaq and Tim Duncan.
02:30The point is SGA now gets to make this case.
02:34Here, we're doing...
02:35Let's...
02:35How about some Michael?
02:36Some Michael trivia.
02:37Since Michael Jordan, the list of guys averaged 30-plus points per game in three straight seasons.
02:44SGA, Giannis, and Harden.
02:46No LeBron.
02:47No Kobe.
02:48No Shaq.
02:50No Iverson.
02:51No Durant.
02:52No Steph.
02:53Shea has been doing this for years.
02:57Shea now is very close to bringing in the accolades.
03:02And this is also his age 26 season.
03:05SGA is going to be 27 next year.
03:10You love playing these games with me, Tom, right?
03:12So, let's just say he gets to two Finals MVPs plus regular season MVPs at the end of this year.
03:20Okay?
03:20This year?
03:21But at the end of this season, he's at two total combined.
03:24Combined.
03:24Combined.
03:25What's the over-under, then, on combined MVPs and Finals MVPs for SGA?
03:32Assuming he gets to two.
03:33I think the line would have to be three and a half.
03:36That looks like to me.
03:37Okay.
03:37Yeah, I think we're about to go on a run.
03:39I would put it at least five.
03:41Five.
03:41I was thinking it would maybe be four and a half.
03:44I think you could argue, again, based on his age, based on the, you know, everything.
03:49And the fact that that team is just getting in here.
03:51The whole team is young.
03:53By the way, really quick.
03:55You know, I always have to do this every once in a while.
03:57Shout out to the GM that traded, that traded SGA to the Thunder.
04:04Glenn Duck Rivers.
04:06I mean, I mean.
04:07No, come on.
04:07I mean.
