When I watch Giannis play, I dont see a 2x MVP at age 25

I’m a Giannis fan, but those FG% don’t mean shyt lol. Giannis nearly shot them out of the game Thursday. KD hasn’t had a game that detrimental all series. They’re lucky they clamped the Nets game 3, otherwise Giannis would still be hearing (even more) about his shot selection.

nah, midrange love is all about situational utility…analytics be damned, it’s invaluable in pressure playoff moments against set defenses…guys like kawhi and KD owe their reps as killer playoff closers to it…
I get the value of the midrange. I view that as only one facet of the game, as opposed to some who view that as the end all just because their heroes excelled at that facet.
Giannis is skinny Derrick Henry playing for the wrong BucsThis dudes signature play is taking 6 steps back and running full steam ahead to the rim like he is a RB

Yup. It's also why timing of points matters as well.This is why context is needed vs a damn box score
Giannis had some crucial fukkups in the 2nd half (shooting some stupid fadeaway over James Harden, for instance), missing free throws at the end (KD missed 1... if giannis got his own, it would have been a 2 point game..)

He sure stepped up to the plate last night. Y'all haters have to give him that.

32 & 13 on 57% shooting
i take this over finesse and 90% FT shooting any time if this leads to outscoring the other team 4 times out of 7
btw it's still fukk Steve Nash
