1. Nothing exceptional about the foul
2. Trash talk happens all the time on basketball court, rarely do players go headbutting and inviting other to fight.

If Silas doesn't start him and playing him 30+ mins when he's not in foul trouble, I expect you Rocket fans do the world some justice and run that **** out of town.

He has NO excuse this year. NONE. Play. That. Man!!!!!
He's pretty much already said Sengun and Jabari are the starting frontcourt. They wanted to move Wood ASAP to give Sengun the job

Really ? so we should forget everything he did and just say Korkmaz was provaking him on the court like you said ? What you dont understand is that if he havent done these things there wouldnt even be a fight ,after what he did you cant come out and say "Korkmaz was the one provaking " Georgian was the one starting sht first, maybe its normal to swear at other ppls mom without a reason in your culture i dunno.

a hard foul without a reason, then going on his way when hes going to take free throws just to block his way and swearing his mom on his face isnt normal in basketball , keep in mind that hes doing all these things together in the same moment.



3:21 its not a hard foul ? Lol.

Huge Sengun believer obviously. Also was a Garuba believer, but I cant believe this is the same guy, Garuba looks like bustiest bust ever, I am not seeing him getting a second contract, guy is just not it.
Sengun however was obviously a hit, I like what Presti is doing, but he was complete moron for trading that pick. You build a young team with assets, and you trade a 18 year old center who dominated good men league already. Sengun is no Luka, but he is as close as it gets when it comes to proven Euro teenager. When this kid stops fouling and improves his jumpshot, its gonna be over.

First time I watch Ukraine in this tournament and I'm surprised, they're actually very good. Ok they got some whistle so far but they're playing good basketball, smart, fast, physical. Whoever gets them in the next round is not gonna have fun.

No not him specifically, just the whole team.

Anyway it looks like they made the one mistake you're not supposed to make against Greece: they gave us room to run. Oh no. Gianni's got 33 in the 3rd.

Giannis out there struggling with FIBA rules, getting limited to 15 points in six and a half minutes in the third.

That is a very good scoring pace in the slower/shorter fiba game. It is like a 30 points pace if it was a 48 minutes game

He meant he scored 15 points in 6 minutes. He has 41 points in 28 minutes.

Giannis is a fraud and an NBA creation. How can he score 50 points in the NBA final and just 41 points in fiba basketball

Imagine if he trained his body to play up to 40 minutes.

Greece was legit scary today, I can't remember seeing them all on such a great day at the same time.
Giannis-Papa front court played together extended minutes for the first time, and looked good, much like the Giannis-Lopez duo. Papa doesn't shoot but he moves the ball faster, is easily better passer than Lopez, catches lobs and found ways to get out of Giannis's way and not clog the paint.

Greece looks ready for the next round.
