Game 59: Heat at Bucks - 2/24/23 - 6:30 -ESPN/BSWI - Giannis Starting, Pat & Wes Out

Holy cow, upgraded to questionable? I take that as Giannis says he's playing, Bucks say he's out so they averaged it to questionable.

Dude is a goddam cyborg.

While I do think Giannis is a pretty amazing healer I would also suggest the injury was fairly mild anyway.

What people are confused about is the diligence with good injury management. It's not been something the Bucks or general NBA have been noted for. It's even possible there was something else they were getting an opinion on.

Line went from -1 to -3.5, Giannis maybe playing is worth 2.5 points.

I still think he sits and we're just screwing with them because **** Miami.

If he actually plays, they should double that line.

Go back to the Michael Jordan days. So many times the guy would get injured, and you thought, finally....it's catching up to him. He'll miss weeks or months with injury, whether due to advancing age or law of averages.

Then he'd be back out there destroying teams a day later. That's Giannis. We'll never have another Buck like him. He's incredible.

Dude he couldn't even dribble the ball or lift the all star trophy a few days ago. He had to fly to NY and see a special doctor to find out how serious it is. Now he is almost ready to play an NBA game and dunk the ball through 2-3 defenders.

It wasn't mild especially when it's also his strong hand. He is just Giannis.

That to me would indicate that even if he sits tonight, he’s back in the next couple games. Which is crazy. Study his DNA to figure out his magical healing powers.

Don't need to study the DNA. We've seen why on the big screen allready cause I defy anyone to take a look.at a picture of Giannis when he was drafted versus one now and look me in the eye and tell me there's still a zero percent chance the Super soldier serum isn't real

Dave Pasch and Hubie (Better Than Doris, and WAY better than Novak) Brown on the call.

I can't stand Hubie anymore and this comment remains true for me.

Whoever said Wolverine was right. Dude has insane rejuvenation powers and it's possible that Ersan bit him early in his career and turned him into a Vampire. Assuming Ersan is the powerful being he is, that means Giannis is still close to the prime vampire and likely won't be affected by puny things such as sun and garlic. This bodes well for a long career and also a resurgence in about 100 years.

The super solider serum was organized nutrition and training for a 19-year-old who hadn't had that before

I’m really looking forward to getting to watch some Bucks basketball. Go team!

[drdrG]

Giannis has been resting the last 10 days basically. Expecting lots of aggressive dunks tonight

[TroyD92]

Giannis probably has some crazy **** going on naturally, but he like I’d imagine most professional athletes is absolutely on something lol

Cyborg.

[AussieBuck]

Sprain typically means anything from slight owie to actual ligament damage. I dunno if this is actually noteworthy on the Giannis is a demigod scale.

[MVP2110]

Purple Jerseys on the blue court. Wtf?

[Milbucks96]

Crazy he might play tonight, it had to be very minor but injuring a shooting hand isn’t something to just brush off. Hope the week and a half off did him well enough and this isn’t some toughing it out type thing.

Very excited to see this team whether Giannis is a go or not(Please play and be healthy Giannis so I can see this team somewhat healthy against another playoff team).
