This Is Not The Same Giannis Antetokounmpo



This Is Not The Same Giannis Antetokounmpo

After a slow start to the season, the Bucks have turned things around in large part due to Giannis, who’s playing the best basketball of his career.

  1. He’s a great player…but let’s not sit here and pretend like he isn’t routinely taking 3-4 steps to get those drives to the rim.

  2. He carries the all and travels a lot. The so called “crossover” you keep referring to is literally him palming the ball and changing directions. When you’re allowed to constantly break the rules of the game, it’s amazing how good you can be. I will say, if the rule aren’t going to followed or enforced..I’d much rather watch players like Giannis than just random chuckers hoisting up 50+ threes a game. 🤷🏼‍♂️

  3. It’s cool to hear he works on his game with Hakeem…it always amazes me that more of these guys don’t seek out help from past generations. The league is so 3-centric that at this point you could absolutely shred these defenses by adapting an older inside style play into your game if you’re a big man.

  4. Giannis adds to his game every year. It’s been incredible to watch.

    One thing nobody talks about is how accurate his passes have become. It wasn’t long ago that many of his passes were off target and couldn’t result in a shot since the defense would close as the catcher readjusted the ball. Now most of his passes are spot on.

  5. Excellent analysis Not many analyses out there with this level of insight on these things.

  6. The mid range just looks way better, smooth no hitch. If he gets the free throws above 75% he'll truly be unstoppable because there's still a huge incentive to foul him when hes damn near 80% at the rim and 61% from the line.

  7. Great content! I really appreciate the breakdowns. I’m so over the unimaginative trade rumors constantly put out by so many so found this video fun. Thanks!

  8. What makes giannis an all-time great is his ability to elevate his game when his team needs him most. Just when people write off the bucks, giannis turns into an even more unstoppable beast.

    I mean let's not forget when people used to laugh at his poor free throw shooting…hack a giannis was a legit strategy. But in game 6 of the finals…when being fouled every time he drives, you expect him to fall back and pass more…giannis keeps attacking, somehow making 17/19 free throws while dropping 50. Absolute legend!

  9. As good as they have been they will not win a championship if the bucks don't realize that they have arguably the 2nd best shooter of all time on their team. I see poor shooters taking threes when Dame is right next to them wide open calling for ball. Gsw does a great job at finding steph when he's open, Buck don't.

  10. i'm still confused by Giannis's gather step maybe it's his big frame making the ball harder to look but everytime i see his 3 step it looks like a travel
