And then he freaked out after the game. Amazing performance from Giannis and I love the shoes but all that stuff after the game was a really bad look.

Andre wore the blue version of that shoe on the night he got his ring at Fiserv. He probably wore them other times too, but i remember seeing them specifically that night.

Tshiebwe hitting a free throw is a bigger event than 64. He deserved the ball. Good for you Oscar.

I missed it. What happened?

Really cool to see Giannas take Andre under his wing like he has. I’m sure he loves Dre mindset and motor as it’s probably similar to his.

Emotions were pretty high during the game. For the Pacers to then take the game ball on the Bucks home court after two of their historic performances is EXTREME levels of petty.

I respect it. I also could understand why Giannas reacted the way he did. Lol

It said he was trying to get the ball for Dame for passing Korver on the all time 3 pointers list. Seems odd to me either way.

 

[ibleedhuskyblue]

Andre should have gotten the game ball for his sick put back dunk, and defensive energy.
But im biased

Yeah, the getting the ball for Lillard thing is bogus. Giannis said he's giving the ball to his mom.

if a guy breaks a franchise scoring record the other team has to respect that and understand the game ball is spoken for no matter how silly some people think it is. they do it in football every week so it's a thing. the pacers were aware and were instigating. i've never heard of gameball going to someone on the losing team.

I think pacers wanted the ball for Tshiebwe’s first career NBA point

The shoes– the Zoom Freak 5 player exclusive– are in UConn colors and feature the Husky logo on the tongue. So why was Giannis, who grew up in Greece and didn’t play college basketball, wearing them?

Well, Nike makes player exclusive sneakers for schools like UConn, Kentucky, Duke and others, and NBA players will occasionally wear them, whether they went to school there or not. Giannis wore a pair of Kentucky-themed kicks earlier this month. Kevin Durant, who went to Texas, rocked a pair of UConn player edition sneakers in a game last season.

The simple answer is we have a really nice color scheme, so players probably like our shoes.

Andre Jackson Jr...UConn LEGEND

Except he scored last week against the lakers. So that’s a lie too.

Ah yeah, I see that now. You right.

It was in the championship game so it didn’t count, technically.

Ummmm no!

I think there were 2 game balls and bucks guys wanted both but I could be wrong

lol. Franchise scoring record >>>>>> 1 point. that’s just ridiculous.

Wanting the game ball for a career high, franchise high and win is a bad look? Yeesh, tough crowd.

Just curious...How many balls do they use in a game? Never thought about it

Even more ridiculous since it wasn't his first NBA point scored. It was his second.

Yes, chasing down the Pacers in their locker room creating a confrontation which got physical is a bad look but he wanted that ball for Dame.

And the pacers wanted it for Oscar’s first points even tho he already scored in a previous game? It was a heated game with a couple scuffles and techs. The pacers started it and knew exactly what they were doing. No respect for a historic achievement.

Yes, Carlisle and Giannis are both full of it. Giannis had no business rushing the Pacers locker room though.

Since this is about nostalgia and not a record it counts plenty. Your first time is your first time.

Bad look is an exaggeration. It’s already forgot about. Giannis is also one of the most well liked/respected players in the league. It’s fine to get heated once in a while.
