So that’s at least 3 and ones in this game. Just ridiculous finishes.

Simply the best player in the world. I honestly don't think there is anybody else who can block that final shot. Superhuman.

The diversity of shots is good in this games. And his off-ball movement stood out to me as well

ok like is it just me or does Giannis seem like he's getting even more physical? It seems like the defenders know the only way to stop him is to foul him but he eats it up and finishes anyways.
These are not the level of players he faces in the NBA. He would be going up against strongest men in basketball in the NBA but against Zubac and Saric here
one thing i will say is that FIBA basketball is known to be pretty physical. Team USA struggled with that a little bit early on last year (but then they realized they were the most skilled and most physically gifted human beings on the planet). I don't know if FIBA basketball physicality is as lacking as it may seem.
it's not that much because of the physicality of the game. It's more about different rules that messed up the NBA players. It will take them some time to adjust, same with Giannis..
While the NBA players are more physical, FIBA rules allow more physicality
Youre right. I love the confidence it gives him to come back to the NBA. T
He is doing this his whole career so far..
