Derrick White should have trotted in front of Giannis... if he sprints behind Tatum, then no way that chase down could have happened. Yes Tatum made the dunk but it may have come at a price.....

That’s Giannis overestimating his ability. You don’t do that when someone is in the air.

Most reckless player in the league over there Giannis. Reminds me of Danny green challenging klay for the dunk in mid air which led to his acl. So dangerous when you are clearly beat

You guys are overreacting to this. Giannis was going for the block. He was too late. It's a clean play. Stop.

I really hate when Giannis goes for those blocks sometimes.

Not flagrant, but unnecessary.

Not a flagrant, but that could have ended badly. No intent there, as much as people say Giannis had no chance, there are plenty of similar plays where Giannis blocks the **** out of it, if he was a couple of miliseconds earlier, that would have been blocked.

That being said, I can see why Celtics fans are psst.

I get that it can be a dangerous play, but it was a basketball play. He's made those blocks before. Personally, I don't like when he does it because he could also hurt himself, but I don't think it's a flagrant.
