Of course, there's a lot of mutual respect between Nash and Gilgeous-Alexander. Both are viewed as the two greatest Canadian NBA players of all time. But even with that said, what he said isn't that wild or out of the realm of reality if the Thunder continue to be dominant.

Reigning MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 28 points in 27 minutes and watched the final 15-plus minutes of the blowout from the comfort of the bench. But not before he turned in an incredibly meme-worthy reaction to Suns guard Grayson Allen commiting a flagrant foul.

Steve Nash elevates Shai Gilgeous-Alexander into Michael Jordan territory, praising the OKC star’s dominance and elite scoring efficiency.

Flopping in the NBA has long been criticized by fans and analysts who see it as a blemish on the integrity of the game. Still, it remains an undeniable part of basketball strategy, especially when the stakes are high.

On a point-by-point basis, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander places himself alongside NBA greats, including the late, great Wilt Chamberlain.

What they are doing is historic. In addition, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is having one of the best individual seasons ever. He is scoring at a rate akin to Wilt Chamberlain. It’s safe to say that another regular-season MVP award is already in the bag for the young superstar.
