What's incredible about this, it's a credit to horst to bring in the right fit, the coaches to get the buy in, and for the older players to put aside their ego for the greater good.

These older players follow this young man as their leader because all of them have been brought it for a specific role. None of the older players have any thoughts to being a top dog, they all have arrived to play a role, and they are relishing and working hard in that very specific role. They love it and own it and are ready to just do their role and they know that's what can lead to a championship.

There's no hero ball or anyone having to go off and get theirs. They've bought in 100% they play their role and they feed off Giannis. It's something beautiful to watch.

I live in DC. My brother sent me a Giannis t-shirt from Dick's, and the fit was off, so I went there a few days ago to return the shirt. The guy at the register unfolded the shirt and was incredulous, and he goes, "You're returning a Giannis shirt?! I might just buy this after the return." Pretty awesome to see people outside WI wanting a Bucks shirt.

20th all time in career playoff WS/48
11th! all time in career playoff PER

Will rocket up both lists. This is what an early GOAT career looks like.

Giannis is stupidly underhyped.

Has anyone else looked at some old tape of Giannis from around his rookie season & realized that his jumper looked 10x more fluid? It’s crazy.

It looked to the point where he could launch them off the dribble on a quick release.

He never felt like a shooter but this is 100% true.

AussieBuck · Post #1700 » by **AussieBuck** » Sat May 11, 2019 10:32 am

He's regaining the fluidity now. The downside of his work ethic is that he's got 4 years of thousands of reps with what Sweeney did to his jump shot to undo. Will take a while.
