Giannis is consistently bad v. the Hawks. It's Okongwu & bracket coverage w/ long athletes. Then it's in his head at the line.

You gotta be so pissed if you're a team where Giannis goes 18/20 free throws against you.

Back 2 backs is when you need shooters to step up... stars aren't going to have the legs to take on double and triple teams so that's when you have to hit open shots

Foul him on every single shot, they can't call all of them.

I know people are going to make it sound like sending to Giannis to the line is a good strategy but even at 55% that's 1.1 points a possession and puts us at a huge advantage constantly being in the bonus. yeah, making FTs would be great but we need Giannis to keep attacking no matter what

Giannis, I love you but you gotta be better on the line.
I know it's a B2B but it still sucks.

Whoever lets him do that stupid 15 second routine and slow as hell shooting motion should literally be sent to a gulag.

Also, 55 to 40 rebounds is criminal.

120-104 loss would be too much to take.

This doesn't sound all the way right when combined with the turnovers when the foul isn't called
