He is also been really good at working the baseline off ball.

GIANNIS IS SHOOTING 75% FROM THE LINE SINCE THE BEGINNING OF FEBRUARY!
New routine seems to be working for him. Wonder if it holds up in the playoffs if crowds are bigger. It’s so damn long for a average FT shooter to be thinking about it. Would they let a average player get away with how long it takes?
Yeah, I think good teams are just going to wait until the playoffs to mention it and then they will bitch about it. He will get called for some delays and have to shorten up his routine mid playoffs, or that is my big worry.
I've said it before, but whoever gave him the idea to have a 15 second shooting routine for each free throw deserves to be out of basketball coaching for eternity.

Otherwise, Giannis can take an even longer time to simply go to the line and effectively catch his breath just fine.
What is a problem is the time he takes to take a free throw once he has the ball in his hands. I believe that this is going to be an issue during playoffs. I have no idea why whoever is coaching him on his free throws routine thinks this is a good idea.

Agreed. 2-3 dribbles should be fine, that shyt looks like he's getting ready to do a dance. I want to see if he can adjust and not let it bother him in the playoffs when other teams whine about the long routine.
