    Lol Giannis has not been very good in the playoffs thus far. His playoff advanced stats are average right now. Guess these refs got the memo from Adam silver to market this guy and make sure Giannis has a statement game. This is why I don’t buy refs swallowing their whistles in the playoffs myth.

    How the heck is the free throw disparity this bad and you are still losing lol

    Giannis leads the league in FTA/FGA.

    People (media, whatever) just don’t care to make it a point with him. Sure it’s mostly him running into people but he’s a big so that’s ok lol.

    I dunno, did not pay much attention but Drummond has the highest Plus Minus at +11 of all Players.

    Hurt Griffin and Reggie also shot well.

    Bucks will try to win the 4th and the game.

    Exactly..that foul on thon was crap...Reggie was saying it was right bc thon didn’t commit was BS...he should’ve said it’s okay for Giannis to bull right into someone and if they try to protect themselves it’s a foul on them...it doesn’t seem right...

    If refs want to ref Harden same as they do Giannis he’d score 40 a night easily.

    The reason Harden perfected getting fouled on threes was because multiple years ago per directive from the league office refs stopped giving him so many calls on drives. So he then perfected the swing up and get fouled on threes. Then per league office refs no longer give the free throws on those just the foul. So Harden this year perfected the step back but jump forward three. They will probably eliminate that as FTs too.... unless a real likeable Star (how about Giannis lol??) hurts their ankle again aka Kawhi in which case the league will reluctantly just have to keep that rule in.

    It's disgusting how they let Giannis shove off and swing his elbows. Those are clear offensive fouls.
