Knicks want to hire Kidd to lure Giannis. They should hire him as GM. He’d rival Isiah Thomas!

Why anyone would think Giannis would leave Bud for Kidd is beyond me but go for it!

As of this moment, three of the eight highest pts/48min seasons are from this season (#2 Harden, #3 Giannis, #8 Luka). Giannis is averaging an astonishing 47.6 points per 48 minutes.

Masai going to the Knicks would put me in PEAK troll mode. You have no idea how many outdated posts I'd be And 1ing from obnoxious Raptor fans.

When Kawhi left, I went and And 1ed an obscene number of "HE STAY" posts from guys that were **** during the playoffs.

What is the craziest Giannis stat?

34.2 PER (Greatest all time by a good margin)

35.9 points per 36

Or that he's 38.2 USG% is almost higher than chucky McChuckerson I'm going to average 40PPG Harden?

Nightfall · Post #895 » by **Nightfall** » Sun Dec 15, 2019 11:22 am

I just noticed, apart from the obvious increase in 3PT %, that he has scored at least 1 3 pointer in 19 consecutive games. Last time he didn't make a 3 in a game was on Nov.4th.

LOL wrong thread.

The announcers were saying Cleveland holds their opponents on average to only 20pts a game in the 4th quarter.

As if, we should be a little concerned not to celebrate too early because Cleveland's defense tightens up in the 4th.

My logic says when players 8 to 13 from the bench are playing in the 4th garbage time,shooting is going to be down :lol:

He just looks so much more confident in his 3pt shot.

15/33 45.5%. For December

32.8% on the season.... Very close to 33%. Very exciting to see how he holds up the rest of the month.

Never expected Giannis to shoot 33% on 5 3PA's a game this season, it makes his FT struggles that much stranger.

Exciting as I don't think it's a hot streak or anything, his confidence is is much greater than it was last season. Not to jinx it but I hope the bright light of the playoffs don't make him forget how to shoot. We're unbeatable in a 7 game series with Giannis shooting like he has been this season

He just has this fixation of taking as much time as possible to rest and catch his breath at the free throw line, which in the end it throws him out of rhythm. It's really bizarre for a guy as fit as him but yeah, it's in his brain now, he just has to LOL
Sooner or later he'll figure out all he needs to do is just chuck it like he does with his 3s. A matter of time.

I don't know. Lebron is at year 17 and he still looks uncomfortable like Giannis in the FT line and he shoots half the FTs.

Maybe we have to live with him being an unstable 60-75% FT shooter. In the end it's only like 1-2 points difference. If he makes 1-2 threes per game thats 3-6 points extra on his game anyway.
