Everyone always remembers the game-sealing alley-oop the most but this was easily the most impressive play of the series. You can count on one hand the number of guys in the history of the sport with enough reach and agility to force the lob and make it all the way up to meet Ayton a foot above the rim. And he did it all on a knee that he badly hyperextended a week before. One of the greatest plays I’ve ever seen

Watching his performance in that Finals series was one of those “Oh holy shit I’m watching greatness” moments that I’ve only been alive to see a few times.

Anyone who says they miss Mark Jackson… listen to this clip. That absolutely insane play happens and he doesn’t add anything. Just casually goes into Middleton “slowing things down”

Wow. This season is a complete black out in my head.
I knew the Bucks won. I just had no recollection of who they played.
Now I get where the Chris Paul being addicted to playing in the finals meme came from lmao

Isn’t this the dude who knocked over a ladder a worker was using?

Giannis was so unbelievably good that series. Haven’t seen a 2 way domination like that in the finals often at all

astounding this guy wasn’t even 3rd in mvp voting this season.

This one is good and the other one I think the block by LBJ chased from behind AI in the Finals game 7.

The Suns were in the finals? Did anyone watch this finals?

This game was so hype! I’m a warriors fan but the bucks became my 2nd fav team to watch because of this finals

Such an underrated finals. Yes, I know injuries meant both teams probably shouldn’t have been there. But that was such an exciting 6 game series with a lot of close games, plus one of the greatest finals performances of all time by Giannis. CP3/Booker actually put up great numbers for the Suns too, despite the narrative that they were a “no show” in the finals

This is why I still love sports man there are moments where already great players touch heaven.

Not anything better than Lebrons game 7 block

I always feel like people don’t realize if he doesn’t block this and we eventually lose, we go back to Phoenix down 3-1 and are probably done. He kinda killed the suns with this block right here

Best Finals since 2016

I love how this evened up the series at 2.5/2.5.
How you gonna cut them scoring on the other end!
