    I get that Jrue and Khris are good two ways but neither cracked Top 20 and I think you need an elite guy next to Giannis.

    Both are just hovering around Top 35.

    Should have addressed that years ago.

    That one championship had people thinking the Bucks got everything but it was not true.

    Giannis choked with his FTs. Damn 4-1 a first seed.

    Remember Budenholzer won 60 games with Atlanta pre Trae Young also.......

    I wish he would join a dynasty team.

    That guy is severely not getting what he deserves.

    If being allowed to bulldoze shoulder first and extend shoulder and elbow is control? He's got better control at finishing though, ill give him that. Its much easier to hang back for an easy bank after your defender is backpeddeling from being bulldozed. Hes definitely modern day Karl Malone.

    Giannis tries too hard to lean from too far or force a dunk and for as good as he can handle for his size, lebrkn is much better at keeping a tight and shorter dribble. Giannis is too upright when hes going downhill. Lebron has more patience after he makes his way to the basket and has better control on hanging shots. As ugly as they are. Giannis has a much more broken shooting form.
    Hes definitely modern day Shaq.

    People forgot that Lebron was hooping as a 5 star recruit while Giannis was starving in Greece around the same age.

    can sudoku attract yannis to play for the rox? he instantly solves all of this team's problems and mergady will finally be off the hook when someone gets a wrong drink at the toybox.

    All the more reason he and Hakeem can vibe and work together to maximize skill level in short period of time. People forget how raw on O Hakeem was too.

    Jimmy Pushoff for the Bucket to send the game to OT.

    Heat should NOT have won this game.

    HORRIBLE officiating.

    He did get away with it but the Bucks had a big lead and just choked down the stretch. It should have never been that close in the last few seconds.

    Bucks shot like 4x more free throws too ... World's smallest violin playing.

    Bucks took 3 times as many fouls shots in this game... Got to be some sort of a record.

    Kind of poetic justice that Grayson Allen had the last possession and wasn't able to get a shot off - only good at undercutting guys in mid-air
