2021 ECF. Bucks vs Hawks: UPDATE - - - BUCKS IN SIX


DuWayne Steurer
I was hoping with the Sunday game they would schedule it a little earlier in the afternoon. I don't want to wait.

I'm on night shift today so I'm fine that it's later. At least I'll get to watch the second half. Although in my line of work people tend to save their nonsense until you've only got 15 minutes to go in your shift.

The attention given to enforcing 10 second rules on Giannis is a bit ridiculous. Ok, he went 10.5 and they should blow the whistle? How about calling the lane violations that occur on every single free throw that can be rebounded, then?

 

Exactly. Not to mention as Hollinger has pointed out - this isn't something refs called all year so why are they making an issue with it now? This and the constant discussion of Giannis shooting 3s - we get it they aren't his best shot - has made Reggie Miller almost unlistenable. Trae young turns it over 9 tea and misses a ton of bad 3s and Reggie says almost nothing. Giannis takes 2 3s when we are up 30 and he talks about it for 5 minutes.

 

 

This is the thing I don't really understand. Giannis isn't a bad 3P shooter. He's OK. There's definitely a time he should knock it off, but him taking the occasional 3 is fine. There are lots of players better at driving to the hoop that take random 3s.

 

I think when it looks bad is when they give him 10 feet of space - he should use that space to drive.

 

100 percent agree

There's really nothing better in the NBA than watching the Knicks suck every single year despite the national media wishing with all their hearts for the Knicks to be good.

While the whole getting on Giannis for the 10 second violation is super annoying and dumb…it’s also kind of annoying an MVP (or any player) has had this violations called in big postseason moments and could have easily had it in other big moments. Figure out a <10 second routine in the offseason. Not worth getting burned when it matter over something, while dumb, is easily avoidable.

Stop calling that a foul

 

Gee, didn't expect the refs to try and keep this close. Sheesh.

If the Hawks shoot 70% or better from three, they will win. I am guessing that won't happen.

One would expect them to come out with fire after being embarrassed. Just gotta weather the storm and stop playing like crap and we will be fine.
