That's the reason why Toronto Raptors able to pin him down during their playoffs match. His moved are predictable so the only thing that Raptors need to do is to think on how to stop that predictable moved since no doubt, Giannis is like a big wave pushing forward to the ring at all strength so a good defense is needed to slow that wave. Boston Celtics also know that but unfortunately, no one from them can stop that big wave.

I've been pointing that in the past too that Giannis needs to work on his outside and perimeter shooting. Honestly, he is working on it year by year. It's just that it's not his usual comfort zone but surely adjustments are being made. He is now seen taking more 3-points attempt than his usual.

Damn, what if Giannis able to succeed working on that decent shooting percentage? With that height, with that leap, with that strong body, with that long-span, with that athleticism - he is a hell a complete all-around player.

I would not expect too much though. Maybe he can raise his percentage for 10 to 15 percent, that's it. He is not a natural shooter so there are limitations to his improvement no matter how hard he trained.  I am yet to see anyone in nba who is not a natural shooter who drastically improved his 3 points shooting.

Right. 10% to 15% increase is already a big improvement for that man who isn't used to play on that kind of game style. As long as there's an improvement, that's a big help already for the Bucks offense.

If everyone here also noticed, some of his attempted perimeter jump shots are not being defended most of the time meaning other teams still doesn't take Giannis jump shot ability as a threat. So it's really a good idea to just keep working on his jump shots and include it to his usual practice routine.

I do agree with this.
As an NBA player that should not happen. He might have scored some but those are forced shots which should not happen. A good play must come into fruitful always and not just forcing it into the paint for most of the times.


In short, a monster.
He aint like Lebron or even Kawhi for now but he is still young. There is so much room for improvement for the guy.
When he gains more experience we will see a great game coming ahead and maybe some records being broken again.

He will just need to be careful too with those penetrations and jumping without even thinking. Injuries are just nearby.

That is the keyword, make him a complete player, Giannis strength is on open court so if there's no fastbreak then it will be difficult for him to score unless he has the shooting touch. So let us see if he can improved, not expecting a big improvement but at least he has the confidence to shoot, unlike last season wherein sometimes he is hesitant to take the shot even if he is wide open.

Giannis is improving season by season and with athleticism, height and mentality for sure he will still dominate under the rim. Team chemistry is really a must for getting rings, nothing did just being selfish on all plays. Even the great MJ and Kobe needs some to call them a legend. If Giannis will find the best and suited teammates on the court for sure they will be on the zone, you know what Giannis is capable of and plus a better teammate/s for sure it's unstoppable.

Right, and it's up for the team management to bring someone that can be a reliable force that could help Giannis. Without another superstar even Giannis cannot bring the championship to the Bucks.

Dude shot 25% on 2.8 attempts, I am pretty sure he is just Ben Simmons that just takes the shots, people mock Ben Simmons for not shooting but if he shot his shots he would have hit 25% on less than 3 attempts as well, he just didn't want to shoot that bad I suppose.

Giannis is a great player and he is a quite all around player both on offense and defense however he has absolutely no shooting AT ALL. So, getting better at it would be amazing of course but if he doesn't improve and keeps on shooting just to spread the floor more, than he would actually lose his team more points than otherwise. If you are shooting 25% from the three point line just so the team could have more spacing than you are hurting the team more than just crowding the paint area.

Keeping Lillard was their greatest deal ever. With their lineup, they still might make it to the championship .
McCollum is his Pippen. It is also a wise move to extend him for he got the potential of being a champion.

Let the team improve their chemistry by playing together for it may also improve their plays and also a higher chance to get the title.

Free agents remaining.
