Kobe Bryant, foul baiter.
Go down the line.
You have to do it to be successful.
But what happens is there's tiers of it.
There's a different tier.
SGA is in a different tier.
He's in that tier with Jalen Brunson, with James Harden.

So it's no question about him.
And he's won a championship doing it.
J-Mac, did he close out game five?
We're not looking for perfection.
from SGA, but his numbers and the team's success has said it all.
Tie game, everything on the line, or down one, you're giving the ball to SGA.
