  1. Giannis coming off 2 days rest, he just can't be off the court like that in the 2nd half.
  2. That's sure what it looks like, plus coming out of the game very early again? Very strange.
  3. He's had games and stretches of games like that from the line over the past 3 years now. It started in Boston when he air-balled a FT or two in a game during the 18-19 season. Ever since then he's aired FTs from time to time, aired 3 pointers too. No counting was going on during this whole phase of his career. I just don't see any difference now vs then. Giannis gets in his own head at times, I don't think it's the crowd. There's just no correlation there. Playoff pressure may add to it, I'll buy that, but home/road splits tell us counting has nothing to do with it.
  4. Look for the Suns to adjust tomorrow night. After Giannis hammering them in the paint for the last game and a half, the soft double teams are over. They are going to brig a hard double every time he's in the paint, with a 3rd player lurking. Bud has to know this, I'm sure. He needs to make Giannis understand he can't force it and pick up fouls, turn the ball over, etc. (Plus as the series goes on the refs won't give him so many calls every game.) Kick it out immediately when you see the hard double coming. BUT that doesn't mean they always need to take that shot. Work the ball around, and you can get it back to Giannis again in more space after you make the defense scramble. You also open up the lane for other guys cutting to the basket. This sounds so simple, and at times they do this, but they need to be fully aware of the Suns game plan going in and be ready to adjust.
  5. Yes, it can happen. And it's something that happens to every team in the history of baseball.
  6. Does the deer district hit 100,000 if there's a game 7?
  7. These long post pattern passes need to stop. Phoenix has safety help over the top.
  8. Move the ball, hit a few 3s, and use Giannis exactly like you should. Pretty effective offense I would say.
  9. From us? We're making twice as many as them. Sure helps when they're not shooting 50% from 3. Bucks were 3/16 when I said that, so yea horrific. Still up by 8, so that was a good sign.
  10. When they stop passing and start just jacking up contested jumpers, they stop scoring. I don't know why this mentality is so hard for them to stay in for four quarters. We've talked about it a lot, but it really is mind- boggling.
  11. Horrific 3P shooting, and winning by 8.
  12. I agree, the old Celtics teams, Bulls, etc. had a much larger margin between them and their opponent. Feel means nothing, I know, but feels like the Bucks have about a 20% chance. But if they win the next two it brings it up to 40-45%, which is pretty much where I put it with a "healthy" Giannis.
  13. Like I said, win your home games and live for game 7, that's still in play.
  14. Need one of those patented 10 points in one minute Middleton runs.
  15. This may be a throwback series where we need to win our home games and still standing in game 7.
  16. Bryn Forbes sighting, the rarest of all playoff species.
  17. He needs to gets his lungs back under him. I'd keep him out there too a little while longer. I get that, but it was obvious Phoenix was in the process of closing it out. It's the finals, either get him out there earlier in that run or just sit him and live to fight another day.
  18. Why is Giannis even playing if he's sitting while the Suns build a 20 point lead?
  19. Maybe. Or maybe it would have just taken Phoenix a little longer to build this lead, who knows.
  20. They don't move the ball, screen, or pick and roll to give Middleton good looks. They don't iso Brook when he has a clear mismatch in the paint. Holiday is not pisting up Paul. Just frustrating.
  21. The Bucks are doing the switching, that's their choice not Phoenix.
