I’m catching up on the SAS bball thread and the amount of insane hype that (very good!) Giannis block had makes me want to go Full Euphronius. people are saying it is as good as the LeBron chase down. preposterous

it was a bad pass lmao and booker got way too close to the basket before the pass

a lot of “good blocks” are actually major offensive errors

the whole point is to keep giannis away from the rim not dribble close to the rim and give him the opportunity to guard two people .

I swear to god

it was a good play by Giannis don’t get me wrong and an example of center defense seldom seen in the mighty West

Wallace vs Shaq and Hakeem’s series saving block are both more impressive to me. I’m not familiar enough with nba history to rank Giannis’ but idk if it’s top five once we have a bit of distance from it

it looked like it was as good a pass as was possible to make in that situation, but you’re right that he put himself in awful position before having to pass it

cunning move by lebron to get danny green, the guy who somehow completely locked him down on defense in the two spurs-heat finals series, away from any potential opposing teams

I think retroactively you can now say the block was ok because Ayton just disappeared

Suns just kinda faded away, and the Bucks played just well enough to win. Pretty underwhelming!

But glad for the Bucks fans.

Perfectly reasonable picks. They're both better teams than the Bucks if they stay healthy, particularly the Nets. Crippled Harden was some depressing poo poo.
