It just seems this bucks team is so poorly constructed by the way it never clicks at the same time. Middleton and holiday are clearly talented players but always look way better w Giannis off the floor. It seems they just went out and got talent but didn't get pieces to fit w their system

That's also on bud as a terrible coach w the inability to make it all work together.

Giannis knows where his bread is buttered and though he does experiment with other facets (unlike Ben Simmons), he knows his lane and stays in it.

But Giannis isn't the first superstar who lived at the rack.

I dont think dudes can say he can't score when he was still eating in that halfcourt setting. The most you can say about breh is that he only has a couple of moves, but you not stopping those couple of moves not even half the time.

shyt LeBron averaged 31 in the Cleveland days when his jumper was :gag: . Jumpshots @ 33% :gag: :gag:

Wade too. Year Wade averaged 30, his jumpshots were barely hitting at a 40% clip.

Giannis on jumpshots rn is 34%. :mjlol:

Imma put it in perspective:

Shaq during the 1999-2000 season when he averaged 30 a game, he shot 76% at the rim. Layups/hooks/etc = 76% . 3-10 ft, he shot 45%

Giannis at the rim? 82.5%, and 41% at 3-10 ft.

It's why I always roll my eyes when dude shoots a jumper when he's this good once he reaches the block

Because players don't like his play style. It's that simple.

You guys saw the Nets series? Most players and celebs on Twitter were on KD and the Nets dikk and went quiet when the Bucks won


They went crazy on Channing a week and a half ago because he said, “I don’t care, Milwaukee didn’t get better because Giannis can’t score.” People went crazy because all they was thinking like “The guy averaged 30; what do you mean he can’t score??”

LeBron James, Road Trippin’

I know what Channing is basically talking about. You’ve got to break down the game. But everyone is so, like, instant oatmeal, and so surface.

LeBron James, Road Trippin’






But he beat a team in a game 7:dwillhuh:

I do agree tho the criticism is due to not liking his game.

Also he isn’t buddy buddy with the top aplayers. Which in turn has an affect how ex players now in the media cover him. It’s just funny the same media tried to give the finals MVP to another losing player who caried his team

Thing about D Wade & Bron, they're better situational/clutch players than Giannis.Especially when it comes to playoff basketball.In the last 2 mins of a game, they're capable of hitting timely shots from anywhere on the court to close your team out.With the game on the line, Giannis is driving recklessly into the lane, and bricking FT's.He's not a closer.His game is like a black hole detached from the team collective.He's a freak athletic talent, but his game is self centered as fukk.He overpowers the defense enough with monotonous dives to the basket, it allows the Bucks to stay in striking range most games.At that point, Middleton's normally the guy who will close teams out.If Middleton's not in his bag, Giannis can score 50, and still lose.

FACTS

Giannis I think is getting too much hate from certain circles but the above is pretty actual factual

They don't like his game but there are other factors at play here, it's deeper than just that. The bigger issue is he isn't in that circle.
