Jokic is having the best season & deserves MVP, but there's no way he makes the block on Embiid that Giannis just did to seal the game for the Bucks tonight.

Heck of a game from Giannis. Though Jokic has 3 game-saving blocks this season alone lol.

This guy doesn't get talked about enough. He's this good and it may not be his peak.

kinda off topic but that ending is so dumb lol.

(a) the ball was clearly off of giannis and he hits it last *before* the whistle. i get that's how the rule works, but it's dumb and the incorrect goaltend call **** the sixers because a jump ball happens when it should've just been their ball

(b) giannis blocks it at 3.2 and thats when the goaltend supposedly took place. so if ur doing a jump ball, why would you not put the clock at 3.2? why put it at 1.6 (when the ball went out of bounds) if that part of the play "didnt actually happen" ?? makes zero sense

Was little bit lucky with refs, but 4thq and overtime KD vs Yannis was very joyable to watch.

This MVP probably could end up like the 1993 with Barkley, MJ, and Hakeem in the regular season.

Title is irrelevant with the video

, but good tracking.

That's why NBA going more and more softer than ever look at these takes, also wouldn't call a foul that call whistled to Matthews for Durant. He shot the ball almost 2 seconds before, what a stupid notion is this :/ .

Giannis with the HUGE game after struggling a bunch with his personal scoring in this series. Damn.

SickMother · Post #79 » by **SickMother** » Thu May 12, 2022 2:47 pm

Durant vs Celts R1: 26.3 PPG | .386 FG%

Giannis vs Celts R2: 33.6 PPG | .468 FG% (so far)

This is pretty outdated and does a poor job of summarizing the series.

Giannis is averaging 33.6 PPG on 51.1 TS%, 41.9 USG% and 101 Individual Ortg.

Durant averaged 26.3 PPG on 52.6 TS%, 31.6 USG% and 100 Individual Ortg.

The difference is the Bucks are essentially are going 2015 Finals Cavaliers where they slow the pace, let Giannis control most of the possessions and play defense hard-nosed defense. This series should be anywhere from 4-1 Celtics win to 3-2 in Bucks favor, which means the Bucks have gotten fortunate to be where they are, but the strategy is clearly working for them.
