This is exactly why the Bucks got Dame -- to make high-quality decisions under pressure, direct the offense when they need a bucket, and to close out the game, especially with a tight score at the end. There were two consecutive turnovers by Giannis and a foul by him in the clutch. Giannis is great, don't get me wrong, but he is not a point guard or a point forward -- that's just not his forte -- nor is it Middleton's.
That was unnecessary loss. The Bucks were 117-108 with 4 minutes left. How can you lose that? And Giannis hit 50 points and went scoreless for minutes. I think he was giving the ball to other players. A loss unnecessary.
Giannis has become almost scared to drive in the clutch due to his fear of end of game free throws. It's pretty much his only weakness. You can tell he's thinking too much out there and causing turnovers by forcing bad passes.
If you're go to move is driving hard to the basket, YOU PRETTY MUCH HAVE A LOT OF WEAKNESSES. CANT SHOOT FREE THROWS, NOT GOOD COURT VISION THUS CANT PASS THE BALL, NO POST MOVES, NO PERIMETER SHOOTING, NO 3 POINT SHOOTING. THIS GUY IS RELYING TOO MUCH ON HIS ATHLETICISM. NO SKILLS WHATSOEVER.
It was my first NBA game I went to in person. As a Pacers fan, it was perfect; I got to see one of the best in the league score over 50 points for the other team, but my team still won with my favorite player (Haliburton) hitting the go ahead 3. That will be a hard game to match when I go again later this year.
@@MyName-wt7oohighest scoring offense in the league. Defense def needs work but the offensive just be going crazy every game. Team ball you never know who gonna go off that night and that’s what makes that offense so unpredictable. Love it. Go Cers 💪🏾
I'm a huge fan of Hali and this iteration of the Pacers but I think they're just catching everyone off guard so far this season with their lightning fast offense. As the season goes on I can see teams planning better for them and things kinda evening out over time. Granted, they're good players and Carlisle is a good coach so maybe they'll make even better adjustments as well as the season goes on.
@@ritz9870I think Haliburton is a legit superstar on offense. He definitely has a lot to polish on D until he actually becomes a superstar but the combination of 40% 3-point shooting and Top-3 passing is deadly. If he improves his dribble game further he's literally Steve Nash but taller
@@Time_Lapse_Master. Agreed. I was actually reminded a little of the 8 seconds or less Suns when I watched them this season. Not exactly the same formula or pieces but stylistically, there's something there.
2:46 Best part of the game. Shows that Hali is a teammate and seems like a solid dude. BB knew he made a mistake and was upset, and Hali did what any teammate should do. Most friends and teammates don’t.
Imagine 6'11" Giannis had a mismatch in the paint with a guy 4 inches shorter and instead of sealing him on the block and dunking on him he runs from the block to get the ball at the 3pt line to do the only move he knows that stupid spin move and gets stripped. The lack of basketball IQ is ridiculous.
He is a choker. No post moves and afraid to take free throws during crunch time. The ESPN is a joke. They consider the guy as the best player in the NBA who can't close out games and scared to takeover in the crucial moments of the game. Pathetic. His 2 turnover and foul in the last 2 minutes is the highlight of this video.
why tf does the NBA HAVE TO PUT THE SCORE IN THE THUMBNAIL.. Im just tryna watch highlights in Hawaii cuz im at work during the games and I CAN NEVER CLICK ON A GAME WITHOUT THE SAME THUMBNAIL OF THAT GAME ON MY FEED AND THEN IT SPOILS THE END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ugh that was my rant.
So they gave the ball to Giannis twice in the clutch, and he turned it over both times. 54 points but useless in the last 2-3 minutes if the score is close.
At this point, Giannis should be man enough to tell the coach "Coach, it's the final 2 minutes. Take me out of the game. I'm scared of free throws." You're just looking at stats without watching the game.
@@anthonymercado8126 Clearly you didn't watch the end of the game when he committed back-to-back turnovers passing the ball because he was too scared to get fouled.
@@sladewestern6704 No I’d just prefer to be able to watch these clips instead of scrolling right past them. Not a big deal though. Weird take on your part tho.
Can you not display the final score on the main graphic, as just opening youtube has blown the outcomes of various games! For those not in the US, first thing you see is results spoilers!
In Europe most of us sleep, when the games played. Most of us watch highlight videos in the morning, because we don't have time (family, work, sleep etc.) to see the whole game or won't have chance to won't open any social app during the day, and watch the game in the evening without spoilers. So please DO NOT do this cover with the results!!!
Just because the final score is close doesn't mean it's a game to watch. Back-to-back turnovers by the Pacers and back-to-back turnovers by Giannis is not something I wanna watch at the end of a game.
I didn't pay attention to the news yet. I just saw "Giannis and number 54", that's all. And when I had time to sit and watch highlights, I laughed knowing Bucks still lost 😅😅😅
Yeah Giannis, Giannis, Giannis......when you score 54 and it is still close at the end, what do you do? Pressure will definitely cause you to make mistakes.....where were the other players? ......🙄....
Giannis is not that guy. Trade Dame and Giannis and lets rebuild. The idea of just extending aging role players and hoping Giannis and Dame can win a championship without any depth is not going to work. We need some draft picks and young talent.
Swear these dudes be throwing the games. Giannis threw the game not once but TWICE in the final minutes. I don’t wanna fake excuse bot comments trying to downplay it. They are stealing our money
Rough go for Giannis down the stretch. First 3 possessions pretty much went through Middleton, then Giannis had 2 turnovers and a foul back to back to back. Giannis needs to learn how to post. Middleton posted up twice down the stretch, I was like why the hell isn't Giannis doing that? Bruh had 54 points on 76% shooting and this is gonna go down as a bad game
Because he is not a killer. The only superstar in the league who doesn't have the guts to close the game for his team. Bron, KD, Steph, Kawhi and Jokic are the superstars that performs well under pressure or even at least make an attempt to take over games during the crucial moments of a game while Giannis is scared. I love when you highlight Middleton. Him and Jrue saves Giannis ass in Game 7 against brooklyn when KD was destroying them.
Fair play to the pacers
Feel for Giaanis having dropping a 54 bomb he kinda made a few errors towards the end

Good observation bro.
Tyrese Haliburton probably the most underrated super star in the league right now
That was unnecessary loss. The Bucks were 117-108 with 4 minutes left. How can you lose that? And Giannis hit 50 points and went scoreless for minutes. I think he was giving the ball to other players. A loss unnecessary.
Why traded for dame
Tired legs
how you think we felt being up 20 points in the first quarter just to have it come this close? 😭
The Pacers were elite, that’s why buddy
zach lavine & giannis both have meaningless 50 pt performances this season😂 wonder who's next??
Giannis has become almost scared to drive in the clutch due to his fear of end of game free throws. It's pretty much his only weakness. You can tell he's thinking too much out there and causing turnovers by forcing bad passes.
ITS NOT HIS ONLY WEAKNESS. its also because he has zero half court offensive capability. no post game, no middie, cant spot up three etc.
He made like 16 free throws tonight
You acting like he does that every clutch moments. He is not scared lol

As a 50yr Pacers fan I’m happy I finally bought season tickets. Win or lose they are fun to watch This team plays a great brand of basketball.
Haliburton and Mathurin have the potential to be the best backcourt within the next 5 seasons and I'm excited to watch for it
Pacers are killing machine with 3-points, and so much points per game. Great team, go Pacers!!!
Excellent,heat nation
i like the pacers jersey and logo
wow that court is looking good
damn the aesthetics of the court is good to my eyes! so vibrant! i feel like am playing 2k
pre color tv aesthetics
Hopefully the pacers keep this up all season
They won’t do anything special, just a regular season team. 2nd round playoff exit would be there ceiling.

Don’t forget the Heats, especially in the playoffs.

Dropping 50 and still lost. Middleton is playong right now 🤦 playing wit no heart

Bucks should play small ball use portis instead of lopez when he is off night.
So they gave the ball to Giannis twice in the clutch, and he turned it over both times. 54 points but useless in the last 2-3 minutes if the score is close.
When the refs finally let the teams play, Giannis had no answer. Go Pacers! 💙💛🏀

lowkey true

I predict Haliburton will lead the league in dribbling. Got to love the 35 dribbles one pass and shoot offense.
he’s like 50th in usage
Its the end of the game. You give it to your allstar
