Shai: 'T'm being myself'
Manila Bulletin
|June 11 2025
The moment is clearly not too big for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
-
These are his first NBA Finals. It's hard to remember that sometimes.
The Oklahoma City Thunder star — and NBA MVP — just had a pair of debut finals games like nobody in league history, with a combined 72 points in his first two appearances in the title series.
That's a record. The previous mark for someone in his first two finals games: 71 by Philadelphia's Allen Iverson in 2001.
"I'm being myself," Gilgeous-Alexander said. "I don't think I tried to reinvent the wheel or step up to the plate with a different mindset. Just try to attack the game the right way. I think I've done a pretty good job of that so far."
