He went to a place tonight that very few superstars go to. He was never going to lose this game and there was nothing Phoenix could do about it.

I've never witnessed a more perfect hero. Thank you Giannis.

Giannis has a disney movie on the way and a few documentaries and just by this season alone he created enough material for the sequels already.

Imma say more later but I was legit more happy for Giannis than I was for me and this meant a **** lot. I know that for all of us old enough Giannis is our adopted son. So damn proud of him.

35.2ppg and 13.2rpg on a bum knee in the NBA Finals. Insane.

Guy took over the game as only a few guys ever have, Giannis making a claim now that his past 3 seasons might be some of the best complete two way hoops ever.

Against a man who was being pushed hard by the media as a Giannis stopper and was being compared to the all time greats after game 1.

I’m 43 years old. I grew up watching Walter Payton and Michael Jordan in person. Larry Bird was my idol. Giannis has become my favorite athlete of all time. His personality is sweet. His backstory is inspiring. His loyalty is inspirational. His work ethic is elite. He broke a curse (small market, super teams, etc) that most thought impossible. I think what he has done is more impressive than any other wisco athlete. Love you Greek Freak.

I told my kid about the movie and as the 4th quarter went on, he kept saying, "Add this to the movie!"

I had a feeling after Chris Paul threw shade at him after Game 5 about his free throws he would come back in a big way. The great ones always do.

It seems like he scored half our points and defended half the shots. He was simply everywhere.
He wouldn't let the team fail tonight even if he had to do everything by himself.
