[@lazzi2462]

Perk said Shai didn't have help? Bruh, the only reason OKC was still in this game was because Hartenstein & Jalen Williams were the only ones doing something in the 1st half while Shai was busy playing hero ball & throwing up bricks. If those two didn't do well in the 1st half, it would've been a blow out from the start. They both slowed down in the 2nd half, but it doesn't help that nobody else showed up & that Shai was still throwing up bricks. Bucks just played a bit better, plain & simple. Experience was on their side, they played calm & more poised, whereas OKC was playing anxious & looked nervous, they looked inexperienced tonight.

[@rakeshkotecha9629]

Whatever Giannis is or isn’t? He’s a top ‘5’? What kind of commentary is that? Name four players better than him right now as an all round player. He leads in ppg , is top 5 in rebounds , not far off top 20 in assists and is an amazing defensive player. Plus he is a natural leader for his team so inspires them all to play better. I don’t understand how he isn’t top two based on how he is playing. I would say he is the best but I am a little biased…! I can see the debate on joker - stats are undeniable and unbelievable for joker this season and everyone who says he is a not as good on defence , he is still amazing in defence. But Giannis pips Jokic in my view. The stats are close but Giannis mvp for me so far this season and the best basketball player in the league right now. This game is incredible- playoff like atmosphere and defence and most players had a drop off but not Giannis (ok small ppg but within variance). This was against a tough tough defence and his rebounding was incredible. Amazing blocks which have a wider impact than the blocks themselves. No basketball player wants to get blocked, ever. So a couple of highlight blocks means the paint is closed for business ! Anyways here’s hoping Giannis gets the other two mvps this season, regular and the real important one … finals mvp! (50 pts in the final game? Would love a repeat of that!)

[@drippenbach]

I'm a bucks fan, but you are tripping if you think Giannis better or more important to their team then Jokic. 🤣] However you are right he definitely is Top 2!

Two things caused this L. One, OKC kept throwing up threes instead of switching the game plan. And two, when they opted for other shots, they did not have an answer for the Bucks defense. If you're an undersized team, you *CANT* let the defense get set, especially when there's two 7 footers on that defense. If they had utilized the fast break they would've gotten to the basket with ease. Instead they jogged it up the court and then desperately tried to shoot over Giannis and Lopez. They gotta learn how to play with pace or they're gonna have major problems in the playoffs.

I am so glad these analysts that refuse to give Giannis his flowers were forced to watch Bucks Nationally Televised take down the almighty “number ONE DEFENSE” OKC. As Giannis convincingly outplayed their shiny new toy, “SGA”- who several analysts said is will be the best player in the cup final!!!!! Better than the GREAK FREAK?! Last season, Giannis had 30 & 19 snd destroyed Shai and OKC (with Chet playing) in the regular season. Not a word was said by the media ignored it while they voted for Shai, who finished above Giannis on MVP ladder last season. Steven A, Perkins laughed pre game when Giannis said, “winning is not an option”. What a mentality for Giannis to prove them wrong!
