    It blows my mind how oblivious some players are to guys like Giannis and LeBron on a fast break that was caused by one of their turnovers. Like you surely have to know they’re going to be exploding down the court to make up for it but no, the amount of people who just saunter down there and try and lay it up like it’s pre game shootaround is crazy.

    Huge credit to Giannis. A lot of players would’ve just stayed up the other end shrugging their shoulders and feeling sorry for themselves.

    Credit to Giannis for chasing it down. A lot of players would just shrug their shoulders and stay up the other end feeling sorry for themselves but this was a blatant foul. In fact, there were two blatant fouls because Dame absolutely fouled him before the block.

    Shoutout to Dame for initiating contact to slow down the break away. I think Giannis gets there anyways but it feels like every chase down block has someone else initially slow down the fast break.

    Wonder if Jones Jr thought Dwayne wade was going to bail him out and award him points like he did when Aaron Gordon got robbed of a dunk title

      I didn’t see it at first. Then I read your comment. So I went back to look for it and it turns you’re just wrong lol. To be a push off there would need to be an extension of the arm in the direction of the player. That just doesn’t happen, let alone massively.
