Anyone who gambles on sports is insane. I imagine that a lot of people lost their shirts today.

Reminds me of a LeBron James on the Cavs the very first time. I've talked about it a few times. That top of the key attack over and over again. Wasn't until the Heat (the second year). When he started opening his game to other parts. Great example is the post up. Giannis is shooting too much of those walk in 3 pointers for my taste. I think he should be knocking down those mid range jumpers first. Work on spot up threes.

Yeah, for me its a lot less about Giannis' playing style and more about how he's used. He can handle and play make a little, but that should be used to mix things up.

It is on coach Bud, but he seems hard pressed to use Giannis like he's James or Durant instead of like Anthony Davis (helps to have LBJ) or Amar'e Stoudemire.

And the shooting coach that ****ed up his shot should be fired, TBH.

Can’t even be mad at that lost.

Hornets played a perfect game tonight. On to the next one.

I am a very happy man tonight.

Randle overall has played better under Thibs - more within the flow of the offense, not as many spin moves, willing passer. Thibs wasn't afraid to take him out when he was acting a fool.

And we got a Mike Breen "BANG" on a Frank 3??? Oh yeah.

Shamet has not been good on the Nets.

The Pacers vs Celtics series.... Why has it been so good for so long? But we can't get a playoff series lol

Shamet has not been good on the Nets.

Meanwhile the Lakers can't hit any 2's. But have got all their 3 pointers 6-6

Markelle Futz has been worth the money. If he keeps improving. He's going to be worth more by the end of it.

So what happened in the nets game to cause the upset ?

What a awful shot by Tatum he had 7 seconds. I still don’t know why people shoot 3s when your only down 1.

What makes you say this?

I know tonight he shot like **** but aside from that, I haven’t seen anything from him to make me think his minutes should go down. But we’ve also only played 3 games and 2 of them have been blowouts so I don’t have much of a sample size to judge him or anyone else on as far as performance goes.

The shooting of course, but also 1 assist and 6 turnovers and when I've seen him in games he's seems to be in too much of a hurry to make things happen and not playing within any rhythm.

I was about to say the same exact thing. But I feel like it's too early to judge anyone.

But he's going to need to step up. Spencer might be down for a while. TLC stepped up tonight.

Also... Ed Davis cut his hair!! Or did he have it cut already in Utah?

Re: 12/22 - 12/28 Games Discussion Thread

Do you guys enjoy Giannis’s playstyle?

He’s a great player.

There are just so many ways to take him out of his game on the offensive end.

He’s not a threat from the perimeter. And if he can’t get to the rim, then he’s not really effective.

Maybe he should work on a post up game.
