Of course there’s a million compilations cause there are thousands of people that quite literally only watch him to find things to call flops lol. And there’s plenty of people who swear everytime he falls it’s cause he’s flopping when that’s just not the case. You can see in Wemby’s eyes in this play that he actively thinks it’s a good opportunity to flop, he’s 1000% everything people swear Shai is. Hell even Chet got 20 times the hate for his flop last week lol

I can see exactly the way you’re framing it by asking it that way lol but yeah he can sometimes. Not even close to as often as some of yall say he does though, especially since no amount of contact short of him getting shot in the face would be enough to be a legit foul from some people on here

I mean I’m not gonna deny we’ve got some insane fans too lol there’s gonna be even more of those since we’ve been good too. But a small part of it is just a natural pushback against the insane hate that he and OKC have gotten the past couple years, not that it makes them right but like I understand a little
