I don’t know why, but that John Wick scene just played out in my mind after this incident.
“It was just a f**king car. Just a f**king dog”
I hope when Giannis defeat Pacers in Playoff he would say “its not just a f**king ball” 😂

I wonder if all the original 50 NBA greats got a gameball on their first rookie point?🤔🥴😪🤧🤦🏻♂️😅
That Pacers rookie must be special.😅

Undrafted 24 year old Congolese two-way contract Pacers rookie OSCAR TSHIEBWE is better than MICHAEL JORDAN because he got a gameball on his first rookie point & MJ didn’t even get one.

The Mavs gave Lively and O-Max the game ball for their first points this year. This is literally standard practice in the NBA, and it’s only two examples just from this season. Is SAS gaslighting or is he really this clueless?

Yup i agree that was a lie..
Aside from being salty, INDY just wanna get back at Giannis for still going at it against bench players in the last 3 minutes when the game was nowhere within reach….

“Everything that went down in Indy”….. the game was played in Milwaukee. Giannis set a franchise and career scoring record on his home court, which makes the Pacers’ actions even more bizarre lol

Rookie scoring his 1st point not fg in a free throw while missing the 2nd free shot.. good milestone😂

Why is everyone ignoring the fact they’re video evidence of the bucks staff immediately grabbing the game ball. lol

He is a Top 75 player who set a new career-high and set a new franchise record, that is a historic moment for a historic player, and therefore you give him the ball. Even if a rookie hit 30. It is called respect.

Pacers reason was so embarrassing and shameless reason out of their a*s. The rookie shouldn’t even want it , it was a single point not even a field goal & a Loss?!! BE FOREAL

Pacers don’t have to do anything for Giannis not their player. If he wanted that bad then something before the game is over

Giannis played pretty much whole 4th quarter during blowout.. and scored like 24 pts.. pretty sure what’s why pacers are not happy
