Shai Gilgeous-Alexander? A metronome in which a surgeon has screwed up a heart, three lungs and 10/10 in each eye.
His greatest merit was not to wave his fingers “Italian style” in the direction of the referees. For the rest, it was acquired since the start of the tournament: footwork degenerate, finishing with small onions, aesthetics of play which “enhance” (it’s not French, it’s Canadian) the rendering of his team’s offensives. To ultimately achieve the best possible result: to take Canada to its first World Cup semi-final in its history. Unfriendly people said it too much “NBA formatted” to perform on a FIBA court. His aunt never called him on his birthday. The Slovenians taunted him with the game (not at all). Shai Gilgeous-Alexander responded with his weapons: two shoes and crazy talent. Hey, we hope Devin Booker is motivated to become the best guard in the NBA, because there’s a strong competitor.
Info from the IFOTRASHTALK institute: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has become the first Canadian player to score several 30-point matches in a single World Cup, since Leo Rautins in 1978. Yeah, we don’t give a damn.
His best game? Far from there. Opposite, Luka Doncic was good but did not know how to wire his sons to avoid the second technical fault, synonymous with expulsion. At this point, Shai only had to perform in the first period, to slip a small 2+1 with the board at the end of the road, and seal the debates. Final stat sheet? 31 points at 8/12 shooting, 10 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals and only 1 loose ball for… 40 rating. Big nonsense, but big nonsense that we will have to trivialize if we want to avoid surprises at each of its international releases. Decidedly, Paris 2024 is likely to be grandiose.
“Canada has one of the best players in the world. It’s really difficult to defend against him. But I’m proud of my team. »
– Luka Doncic, reported by Yann Casseville from Basket le Mag
“Look at him go! Did that really happen?”
