Giannis with an air ball after Kawhi hits his 3.
That sums up the last 4 games

Soft touch, confidence and skill....the guy can play
Giannis' defense has remained great.
His offensive limitations where badly exposed the last 4 games. He's still a great player, but not good enough to be your go-to guy in a tough playoff series - at least not yet.
Giannis needs to go right to the ****ing basket. Score. And go to the line.

The Raptors have something to do with that.

He doesn't want to be at the line.
ChilliJon posted:He really, really doesn’t.
That has affected the series significantly.
Giannis has played 40 minutes and they are +4.
He has sat for 8 minutes and they are -7.
He needed to play more minutes.

And get the rebound.

Too bad it's likely his last game as a Buck. The salary cap rules make it hard to keep him.

And rebound the miss

That was an odd sequence, but they failed to get the rebound and it blew their final chance.
Van Vliet and Lowry are 7 of 9 from 3. That's really the game again.
Kawhi Leonard is 9-22 and 1-8 from 3 and 6-9 from the FT line tonight. He's not been great (very similar stats to Giannis actually).
If the Bucks could just get this to overtime it feels like they would win.
Otherwise that 17-2 run is going to haunt for a year.

If Leonard didn't guard Giannis the last 4 games, then yes.

26-3 by the time it was done.
Don’t watch a ton of NBA...but damn...Leonard is a freaking stud.

Not as much as it would have in a Game 7.

Thanks it’s haunting me already LOL.
Not that it mattered, but they get the rebound again.
Warriors are going to beat Toronto in 4 games and it’s going to be ugly.
Well .
Now I can root for Steph Curry to shut Drake’s yap.
Best record in the NBA and they lose 4 straight.
Although if Leonard did not miss 28 games, I think we know who would have had the best record.

Is there really any reason to dislike the Raptors? All I have read, they have been nothing but complimentary of the Bucks.
I hope they win it.
