But I remember when Lebron, mid career, starting to make significant improvements in is shooting had moments and games where he just settled. I fear Giannis more when he attacks often. I hope he settles against us is my point. It's going to be hard for Giannis to ever be more efficient from three than he is in the RA. It's more of a game theory thing. If teams can't just leave you wide open, that will then make him even more efficient in the RA and have knock-on effects to everyone else. If you can't leave Giannis wide open, then you can't help heavily off of him in order to contend someone else at the rim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raptors and Celtics play just fine without Leonard and Irving. This team just can't create offense or shoot consistently without Giannis. Saturday showed just how poorly they fit together without him. Clutch as hell in that 4th quarter tonight but they've been playing some ugly ball lately.

Pugger Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Giannis was a force yet again but still, to go into that arena and come back like they did to win that game was a major statement IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just fine actually. I have some level of concern for the Bucks supporting cast being able to win a couple games. Truth be told I haven't watched more than a few Bucks games this year, just curious how the Raps handle Giannis, if they even get a chance to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're the 2nd best team in the East but they're addition of Marc Gasol doesn't move the needle against MIL at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
