What Antetokounmpo was missing: A step-back triple!
As I said last season Giannis Antetokounmpo In an Instagram video, that’s no surprise. “You can’t have everything”.I joked serge ibaka“God told me I needed to stay humble and basically told me I couldn’t make three-point shots,” the Greek player said.
But double MVPs are proliferating to fill the void. Damian Lillard It was beyond his bounds and even from the perimeter. In an incredible play, Antet left everyone speechless with a 3-pointer off the horn at the end of the game. step back. It was his sixth of three goals this season and his 500th career goal.
The pivot ended as 35 points, 11 rebounds This was to make up for Lillard’s abysmal performance of just 12 points on 3-17 from the field.
Even if Antet already struggles with triples from the standing foot, the Greek’s ability to land triples after going down is even more surprising. And Giannis’ average three-point percentage is even worse than last season, at 25% compared to 27% last season. Something about Dame’s difficult adjustment.
