Giannis Intentionaly Levels Mike Dunleavy

[Atmanne]

Honestly, this is a lot worse than what Giannis did.

[LuxTheGoat]

As a youngin, my pops taught me how that pipe swung freely! So shootin might come easy....like Mike Dunleavy!!! - Hollow

[old rem]

Well... having seen much of Dun when he was on GSW.... i must say he's been knoced down hundreds of times.. like a wooden duck at the county fair. That said.. a LOT of those falls he did get the charge call. As a Warrior...Duns "hilites " were mostly him getting run over..splattered.... demolished. Hard to see a guy 6-10 as a helpless innocent bystander.. yet he actually does that role well.

Woww.. here comes the victim blaming. SMDH. I'm guessing that girl that got raped is also at fault for wearing a skirt that was too short?

Comparing the incomparables. Your comment was actually painful to read.

The key thing is Giannis didn't take Dunleavy's legs out. And since he didn't to me it's just a good hard retaliation foul.

[Al Swearengen]

Given the circumstances as well as Giannis' age, frustration foul would be understandable even without Mike's bitch move, let alone with. In other news, Scottie Pippen lookin' like it's '94 out there. What the hell.

Scottie literally has not aged in 15 years. He is some sort of wizard. I have been waiting for the day when he gets out of his chair and reveals he is wearing a tear-away suit with a uniform on underneath.

Let's completely miss Dunleavys punch and his shot to GA'S throat.

At least nobody has tried to tie this into to justifying police brutality yet...

Literally, the worst analogy of all time.

[Spalato]

That's a clean hip'n'shoulder Aussie rules style...

Play on.

[Mik317]

The good ole hit the showers early foul....

The dunleavy punch on mcw was not cool, everything else was playoff basketball and the bucks dished out just as much as they got.

Imo the bucks won the physical battle in games 3-5 and that was a big reason why they won two games. Today Chicago just executed and besides the cheap punch by dun they were the more physical team. They also did a great job of not retaliating.

You know how you get back at someone who takes a sly cheap shot at your face? Take a sly cheap shot at their face a few plays later.

The worst Dunleavy could have done is bloody someone's lip. The worst Giannis could have done is end Dunleavy's career. So no, Dunleavy did not "deserve" that in any sense of the word.

[blumeany]

@ somehow MDJ being the dirtiest player in the game now. I think the Bucks were more pissed he was hitting shots. Bucks reaped what they sewed the entire series.

[KyletheDingbat]

LOVE IT! Your teammate got jacked and you're getting blown out, plus he's only 20 years old. I'm all for it. Glad he's showing that vigor. Now I wouldn't love it if he was 25, but he's at an age where he can let himself go a little bit. Plus it's not like he shot the guy or anything, he just checked him. Some ladies in this thread getting bent out of shape over the smallest stuff.

Dunleavy took out MCW with a punch to the throat while he was still in the air - that's far worse. Especially when you saw what happened a few days ago when a player (Crowder) was knocked out from a punch and subsequently injured his knee from the fall.

(Not excusing what Giannis did though.)

[Dame Lizard]

Dunleavy is an absolute merkin.

What Giannis did was bad though.

Did Dunleavy get called for any of those previous fouls?

he's a veteran he knows how to get away from it

[MaxRider]

suspension coming up
i wonder how many for Antetokounmpo (flagrant foul 2 is minimum 2 games right?) and Dunleavy

[zimpy27]

Dunleavy got away with atleast 6 dirty hits in this series..



That happened early in the game right before Giannis eyes. The refs missed it, MCW went to the locker room and the bucks lost their rythme and the game.

Right before Giannis lose his mind Dunleavy hit him in the throat also.

Giannis was wrong to smash Dunleavy but that doesn't prove that he is a dirty player. He was pissed at the moment at Dunleavy and the way the game was going and lost his mind but didn't try to hide his hit or hit him in the face, groin.

Dunleavy has proven that he is dirty player though. A great one since he is doing in a sneaky way...

did you just equate this to rape?
