And then he freaked out after the game. Amazing performance from Giannis and I love the shoes but all that stuff after the game was a really bad look.
I missed it. What happened?

Really cool to see Giannas take Andre under his wing like he has. I’m sure he loves Dre mindset and motor as it’s probably similar to his.

Emotions were pretty high during the game. For the Pacers to then take the game ball on the Bucks home court after two of their historic performances is EXTREME levels of petty.

I respect it. I also could understand why Giannas reacted the way he did. Lol

Tshiebwe hitting a free throw is a bigger event than 64. He deserved the ball. Good for you Oscar.
It said he was trying to get the ball for Dame for passing Korver on the all time 3 pointers list. Seems odd to me either way.

Yeah, the getting the ball for Lillard thing is bogus. Giannis said he's giving the ball to his mom.

if a guy breaks a franchise scoring record the other team has to respect that and understand the game ball is spoken for no matter how silly some people think it is. they do it in football every week so it's a thing. the pacers were aware and were instigating. i've never heard of gameball going to someone on the losing team.

The shoes– the Zoom Freak 5 player exclusive– are in UConn colors and feature the Husky logo on the tongue. So why was Giannis, who grew up in Greece and didn’t play college basketball, wearing them?

Well, Nike makes player exclusive sneakers for schools like UConn, Kentucky, Duke and others, and NBA players will occasionally wear them, whether they went to school there or not. Giannis wore a pair of Kentucky-themed kicks earlier this month. Kevin Durant, who went to Texas, rocked a pair of UConn player edition sneakers in a game last season.

The simple answer is we have a really nice color scheme, so players probably like our shoes.

lol. Franchise scoring record >>>>>> 1 point. that’s just ridiculous.
Even more ridiculous since it wasn't his first NBA point scored. It was his second. :confused:
