[Highlight] Giannis drives baseline around Wemby for the flush
Thanasis is the GOAT hype man I swear. He’s the real star of this play hahaha
Damn bro got tossed
Yeah cause he got fouled
He would have fell regardless.
Lmao this reminds me of that one post on reddit about Embiid flopping and someone making a valid point that Embiid actually fell by accidentally stepping on someone’s shoes or something, and a guy responds with “well he was planning on falling anyways”
He was trying to push Giannis out of bounds was completely out of position because he is too slow to guard him, if Giannis doesn’t hook he falls slower and in a humiliating fashion. See how he didn’t flinch to complain or look at a ref.
Hey 😠
Giannis sure helped speed that up tho
He was already falling because he got his own hand caught up in Giannis. Giannis just helped a little bit more after the fact.
(I’m not arguing against it being a foul)
He definitely flopped lol, acting like the wavy dudes in front of car dealerships 😂
No foul.
Chicken wing
You could argue either way that he’s steadying himself after getting around. Probably a FIBA foul but it’s within the physical limits of NBA officiating IMO.
Child’s play 😤
Hook and shove, sure— but what a ferocious drive by Giannis!
Giannis is fcking quick.
the fck.
you can say fuck on the internet
Fuck
Better to not
appreciate your guidance, pastor
Greek freak for a reason. Moves like a 7 ft Westbrook
Is wrapping your arm on someone on the drive legal. Im asking a genuine question
It’s not, but post players do it all the time. Jokic and Tatum are others who do it often. Chicken wing em
its not. It used to be called instantly back just a decade ago.
It’s still gets called, it just depends on whether the ref wants to or not
It still is for KAT, but he also does it multiple times every game lol.
Literally an offensive foul
no lol
Ight just making sure thought I was tripping lol
Not legal but don’t expect nba will call this violation. It is just a joke in nba game now. No defense can be played.
It is illegal, just like palming the ball when dribbling, shuffling your pivot foot, illegal screens, kicking the defender during your jump shot, pushing off on the drive, and a bunch of other rules the refs in the nba basically never call, so the players do it all the time because the refs allow it.
The nba rule set is not the same as the rulebook. This is one of those times. If they never call something a foul then it’s legal.
Giannis also took that extra step before the dunk. Was actually happy to see a highlight Giannis didn’t get away with a travel…then I finished the video
You can step up to 99 times after the gather if you ask the modern nba lmao
Hook offensive foul but Wemby can’t be that clumsy
the ref is right there. how do you not see that hook? like it’s literally right in front of you
And people were doing victory laps in the knee collision thread about how injury prone Wemby is
Fr
Hooked him
Yeah wtf was that hook lol this shit has gotta be called at some point
Not a comment on the play but absolutely love this court design
Offensive foul
Any reason why the mods deleted the last clip of Giannis vs. Wemby?
Didn’t have a bracket in the title I think
Wemby lost all his powers. Did he learn nothing from the story of Samson and Delilah?
aint nothing over there wemby
Wemby still lookin like he just came out of the womb
Victor Wembaldyama
That’s Wemby’s monk form too!
why is wemby bold? is it too regain his honor after losing to the thunder
Kon Knueppel literally was talking about this exact play from Giannis on the bill Simmons podcast lol
That’s low center of gravity on full display
Treated him like a child
Dawg needs to put on like 30 lbs
One of the few guys who’s got the length, strength and agility to physically match up with Wemby.
And the Flopbenyana hits the pine, again
I swear, Giannis like a speedy gazelle buck that just blitz past a startled Wemby giraffe.
