Give the man one **** season before you're handing his POG honours to his minions. Bogut's record of 20 in a season needs breaking.

Telly was a machine gun from the 3p line, but I can't remember any game of Giannis, in which he was so dominant in the first minutes, before he got benched for the first time. It was like playing against children.
No hay banda.

If Mirza doesn't win this we don't have to do this against. 7-9 from 3 is amazing and had a big impact on this game. The game was decided after his back to back to back to back 3's. Clearly the man of the match. Not the best player, but that shouldn't be the question. Giannis can't win these games alone.

Giannis played at Lebron in the 2016 finals level. Watch the first one and a half quarter quarters again and then write apology letters to Giannis and his family for voting against him.

It says even more he made Mirza the Man of the Match. Don't have to write about that.

Voted Telly. His 7 3pters killed the Kings in the game.

For what it's worth, Giannis and Teletovic are tied 38-38 right now!

Re: Player of the Game - Bucks vs Kings
I don't know if the Cavs board does a POG thread, but if they did, how many times would Lebron not win it? I feel the same way about Giannis right now, so either we should start counting 2nd place votes and give the "Player of the Year other than Giannis" award at the end of the season, or we just start putting an asterisk next to Giannis' name in these polls. Even a below-average game from him (16/7/5/1 ???) could be considered POG worthy. It's never going to be fair to the other options.

Lebrons 2016 finals was probably the greatest anyone has ever played basketball ever. SO I'd probably disagree with you

Re: Player of the Game - Bucks vs Kings
There's often going to be another player besides Giannis that has a great game on nights that we win. These "throw them a bone" votes may end up giving us a rather warped view of overall impact when we look back. Why even have Giannis as an option if we're not going to take his elite play seriously?

Jabari 4 steals and a block!? He played D?
Rashad Vaughn had 2 blocks too.
It is probably the Giannis' God Mode effect... Giannis' defense and energy is contagious to the Team.
I am releaved and happy not thinking about trades for a change
