This morning OG is our MVP. We got to close this out but he is the front runner at the moment.
I put the Debusschre trade ahead because the pieces already in place. Reed slides to center, Bradley from Guard to SF. Core for 2 chips over next 5 years.
OG came and it looked great until Randle got hurt. Not on OG mind you but that, and playoffs we fell Apart and OG had that injury.
KAT and Bridges came after OG.

Its a great trade, fantastic and OG has gotten better each year. Dave. D was an allster prior but the chemistry was a mastertroke. Also while Bellamy was an really good center it put Reed in the middle.

OG is the 2026 Finals MVP!!
Most consistent player this series.

It's crazy. There are guys who made the All NBA First Team who don't have a fraction of the big plays OG has accumulated between here and Toronto. I'm sure we'll see a thread started soon that says OG is underpaid.

I have never understood the complaint about OG's contract. For me, he is easily one of the top 10 best defenders in the league, so he is one of the best on one side of the court. And he is well above average on the offensive side with elite spacing capabilities. He is no less than 80% of Kawhi?

In comparison, someone like Doncic is uber elite on the offensive side with top 3 closing capabilities but a literal zero on defense.

OG...
16.7 ppg reg season
20.7 ppg post-season overall
23.8 ppg Finals

Another gear and that's just his scoring. He's been a key defender for Wemby and/or anyone else on SA.

I’ve never seen these before
