Put him back in cowards, I wanna see him get 60!
Man is on one right now
People saying he’s out of the MVP picture because he’s inefficient by his standards has been hilarious. Like 33ppg on 60% TS is poor combined with his defensive impact
His new years resolution was to embarrass the wizards after seeing what they did without him the other night.
Giannis carrying as hard as anyone, MVP battle just starting
Better then Tatum. Should be in the MVP race.
They’re giving 50 points out like candy, beloved
Best player in the league still. Man is averaging 33/12/5 in a down year lol
Also almost commited murder in the 4th quarter.
What was the last 50 point game without a 3? Andre Miller??
The free throw % is arguably the most impressive stat there
Absolutely insane.
That’s how you re-introduce yourself after some slander, Giannis ain’t the Greek Freak for nothing
I wanted him to finish that dunk so bad lol. But what a performance. You could tell he was feeling himself all game.
People were really tryna write this man out of the mvp race like he ain’t averaging 32 11 and 5 while playing elite defence and is now only 1.5 games out of the 1st seed lool. With more than half a season left to get his efficiency back to his usual standards.
Wizar_s
That missed dunk was the play of the game lol
Suddenly he shoots back to 3 on the mvp ladder
What is going on in the league right now. The top level talent are dropping bombs every night.
He was unstoppable tonight. Just crushed Washington’s frontline.
Crazy how many ppl on this subreddit were saying he wasn’t top 3 the last few days, hell i saw some guys saying current day LeBron is better
Hopefully this performance shuts up the “what have you done for me” natured discourse herr
Wtf is going on in the nba rn
And the streak of ridiculous NBA performances continue this week
Lmfao… fucking Giannis man
He’s on an unbelievable stretch right now. Carrying the Bucks through their injuries to Middleton and Holiday.
This era is by far the most talented ever, my god.
Run n dunk many got lucky, that’s why he should be no better than 8th in the MVP voting, no skills
I couldn’t even build my Gundams while watching Bucks games (nice time to stay happy even if we play like shit). Man just decided to have himself a cute little historic night for him. Nothing says this more than his logo three that almost gave him 50 (but was waved off cause of timeout)
its tough being a giannis hater
Didnt even get to 70? Giannis a bum confirmed.
Someone check his averages over the last 7 games i think. It’s absurd He’s got like 5 40 pt games in his last 7 games and with this was his 3rd straight 40 point game. Giannis was generational today. Just absolutely unbelievable. The relentlessness in attacking the rim is historic! It’s amazing to watch.
Giannis saw all the crazy games this week and was like “eh I could use a new career high”
