Where does this rank among best NBA Finals blocks of all-time? 👀
Doesn't matter where as long as it's higher than Lebron's. That one was overrated asf!
2nd behind LeBrons in 2016
Right lebron had so much time to recover while Giannis block was more difficulty given the little time and the lob
@@pjsilvosa7445 bro wdym LeBron sprinted full court and covered an insane amount of ground in a matter seconds, jumped around 30+ inches off of he ground, and fully blocked the shot while the game was tied in a heated game seven to completely shift momentum and lead to a cavs win. I love Giannis but it’s gotta stay LeBron’s block at #1.
The Best
Never in my life, have I seen someone recover and turn to block a two hand finish out of a wide open lob. Easily one of the best defensive plays in league history
Big facts!
Well, Ayton didn't have control of the ball to even dunk it , yet. Lol All Gianni's did was poked the ball away.
@@jacure123 bro Ayton was .2 seconds away from yammin that jawn, but his grip could def be tighter
You must be young.
@@jacure123 if you told me rn that you've watched over 10 games of basketball in your life I would be astounded
This man guarded the pick and the roll all at the same time. WOW .. just wow

@immafinna betryna you are the overhyped thats why all the hair in your head left you and went to Mars
It took him 1 step. Literally.
yea because everybody cant dunk without jumping nothing crazy there
@danzell Thrower I mean the block was hella impressive but to say nobody in NBA history could have made that block is a reach. Hakeem and Garnett and Ben Wallace and Dwight could have definitely made this play and have made similar plays. Not to take anything from Giannis because this was a hell of a play and he is a hell of defender.
This block was the perfect blend of defensive basketball IQ and unreal athleticism. His smarts had him in position to make that incredible feat.
If MIL wins the Championship fans should remember this moment during that journey.
Bro mil fans have moments like these for the last 4 years.. shits something specia right now..
I'll remember all the games if we win the title
“When”…
if they win this will be remembered like the lebron block
@@nikontori not even close. that was a chasedown on a 2 on 1 with a minute left in game 7 after coming back from 3-1. No disrespect to giannis this was insane but brons block was otherworldly
Chase down block in Game 1, and this alley oop denial over Ayton. Giannis is making historical plays in the Finals.

@@xvingar6318 Lebron's defense isn't impressive honestly.
That’s literally an anime moment when the protagonist sees everything go down in super slow mo and reacts by sheer instincts. UNREAL

I thought exactly the same, with Ayton saying in his head «Nani ?! how he can be this fast ?! I never thought he could recover from that ... So here is the power of this dude Giannis» 😂😭
Lmao true
Eyeshield 21
NANI?!
The most insane part of it all is him being fearless enough to contest and block the dunk the very same way he attempted to contest Capela’s alley oop dunk when he injured his knee. This is why he is great.
Mamba mentality
Wow a 7 footer jumping 5 inches off the ground to block a layup so amazing.
what are you on a about that’s his fucking job a lot of things make him great but that confusing bull shit is not a reason
It's not a bag of excrement. It's a bb ball.

@@joshkutz982 the ray allen shot was better
Not better than lebrons block
@@xvingar6318
Like Van Gundy said, that block was “special”. But, I think it’s a bit much for anyone to be saying it’s anything more than that. It wasn’t as impressive as a chase down.
Giannis Tinkled all over Aytons Hopes and Dreams with that Block.
Lmao slept on comment
I think the craziest part is how he avoided fouling him
Right?? I kept viewing the video in slow motion and couldn't believe how clean that block was. All ball
Yeah, that was a great block, timing was epic considering that's almost a split second play, just a little bit late that would been a foul.
The craziest part is he wasn’t even looking at him. He was guarding Booker when Booker threw the lob. Giannis analyzed the lob, turned around, saw the ball in Aytons hands, jumped and blocked it without fouling all within a second. 1000000 Defensive IQ
And he had a hyper extended knee not 100% knee
I didn't really even think about that... So much happened in that moment... That's some awareness!
Dude snapped his knees and still blocking shot like crazy
Yeah most players would've been avoiding the rim if that happens once in their lifetime
A freak of nature
Thats why he's one the nba's most gifted specimen and a true freak of nature. Superhuman. 👊
And I would say thats the most important part of recovery is getting over that mental block that something bad would happen if they did the same movements again at full strength especially but it seems he has a tough mamba mindset and he was able to overcome that part of his injury
There was no damage to his knee.. im not saying he 100 percent but yall making it bigger than what it is
Giannis is in the midst of one of those all-time memorable Finals performances. He deserves that ring.
Just wait until Game 6.
- The future.
@@TheLastWalenta☠️
This block won the Bucks a Chip 🔥
What’s crazy is that everyone is going crazy over this play and I still think people aren’t fully aware of how impossible this was. He literally defended both plays. He fully committed and stopped D-Book from rolling and getting an easy jump shot and then within the amount of time it took for Booker to pass the ball, Giannas turned around and got back to block the lob in the paint…. WTF the amount of ground he covered
That’s what I said when it happened, like how did he turn around, elevate perfectly, and nail that block all while the ball was still in the air and Ayton was already up and in motion for the alley oop. Honestly one of the very best blocks I’ve seen, up there with LeBron a few years ago and Bam last year
@@TJJ117 For sure. I was in awe. He did that reacting to the pass after Booker passed it and still recovered. It’s not even like he started turning around before the pass and just made a good prediction. I’d put it above Bam’s block but just behind LeBron’s. Athletically Giannas’ was crazier but Bron’s was in a game 7 of the finals and I don’t think people realize how ridiculous that was for him to not only chase down that layup but he literally blocked it with his right hand and had his left hand on the other side of the rim incase Iggy did a reverse layup. These guys are freaks for real lol
It's a nice play, but the pass was terrible. Look where he catches it. No chance. If the pass is closer to the rim, that's an easy bucket, or a maybe foul on Giannis.
@@fr.johngrieco3628 🤦🏽♂️ don’t be one of those people. Just appreciate the greatness we witnessed. No one else would’ve had the timing , athleticism or length to turn around and block that from behind going from defending a middy at the foul line to defending the paint
I was watching this highlight over and over again just saying wow. I’m not sure how he read that play so well. The timing of his jump and the accuracy of the block was literally perfect because it was clean and at the top of Ayton’s catch so he couldn’t even attempt to slam it.

He knows it lol

@@gwapsgarcia - that took a ton of film-study and bball IQ to be able to read that play like that.
After Middleton’s bucket I was like one more stop and never in a million years I expected this type of extraordary block. What a play by Giannis.
the level of athleticism and skill needed to do dat is insane
From this moment I really started to believe Giannis deserves this championship more than any player this year
Guess what? He did it

So stfu and watch
Dudeeeee, That is not easy, he has to turn around and then he still got the elevation and height plus the strength, Greek Freak is a monster💪💪
AND jumped off the leg he messed up a few weeks back
@@Quan_Dingle_ amazing man
I'm not sure any other human currently on earth could have made that play, lol. He had to get so much elevation so quickly, have the strength to reject Ayton, the base speed to turn around and explode. It takes a "freak" like Giannis.
And then in between both Ayton’s hands without a foul. It’s really incredible on alot of levels. Watching in slow motion really just shows you how difficult this block was in real time amazing
@@GlobusTheGreat if it's be anybody who could even get close I'd say LeBron. Would say Rudy Flopbert but he got exposed
The man is fearless. No mental block after that near-miss on his leg.

Yea but they mean the dribbler not so much the defender

@Chumnley snoop oh my bad u right he got a couple badges as well at hall of fame 😂
@Chumnley snoop because if he's not 100 then idk what is
@Chumnley snoop He proved that you can win modern day without a super team and 3pt shooting team , and displayed the meaning of Dominance! He may change/alter the game and 7 ft players . He may be the blueprint to a new crop of basketball players slowly emerging
@Chumnley snoop more like an evolution
@Chumnley snoop maybe not Wilt though because he was more of a freak than Giannis and I feel if he played in today's game and had time to adjust and adapt he would transcend things as well. Wilt was 7'1 had a 56 inch vertical, was very faster , faster than Giannis maybe , I'm not familiar with track as much as hoops but he ran something impressive (Dash) in college , so he would've been something different
Holy fuck having an audience is really something different the cheers just make the game amazing to watch again.

Finger wag ☝🏼
Milwaukee blocks
With that type of athletic block, you would never know he hyperextended his knee less than two weeks ago! Giannis is a flat out beast!!! 🔥🔥🔥
This was the greatest block of all time.
Where do I even start.. this was in game 5 of the series so not everything on the line. bucks were up 2. giannis was already set defensively, at least sort of.
Lebron's block was in game 7, game tied, coming back against literally the best team in NBA history from 3-1, something never done before. He had to catch up from the other end of the floor to make the most improbable chase down ever.
@@Johndavidson4 So where do I start? Giannis replicated James's block in Game 1, except he sprinted from further away and did so on an injured knee. This block was against a Number 1 pick overall, a 7-footer at the summit who had a head start on getting there first because Giannis was literally guarding two people at the same time at opposite ends of the paint. The skill required for this block is such that only 1-2 people in history could pull it off, Giannis (because he did) and Wilt. That's the list. If you think James could replicate this block, even in his prime, that is incorrect. Similar to James's block, this block saved the series for Milwaukee and they may not have won the chip without it.
Bruh
@@TheLastWalenta You are retarded bro, Booker threw a horrible lob to Ayton that was WAY too high and too close to the backboard all Giannis did was break up the lob, LeBron sprinted full court to save a lay up.
@@Johndavidson4 Giannis didnt need Kyrie to save his ass.

truly a freak of nature, how can he guard booker upfront, then turnaround to block the lob, in split seconds, I haven't seen that ever ever
And that blocked was the game winner😂😂 Its 99-101 when he made that block. Its crazy tho.
This is one of the best things I have ever seen on the NBA. Ever. Period.
I swear the hyper-extended knee made him stronger and faster.
😅😂 probs 👌
Absolutely! It was all planned! 😀
Morphine? Lol
That made him taller so that he can block it
Think it just got him more time to rest so he has fresher legs
That's why he's MVP and DPOY, 2 in 1.

That block truly came out of nowhere, shit had me shook. I was pissed ABC was replaying the CP3 turnover but not the block.
That whole one motion, one moment he was showing on to the ball handler then switching back to the roller and in 1 motion, instead of going for the normal reaction of trying to deflect the pass he went straight for the block? Guy is crazy good
On a young athletic 7ft center trying to dunk , he goes for a block in this situation shows his Drive
Theres other guys who are as big AND as athletic as giannis who could do this but would try the deflection instead and fail 99 times out of 100 whereas giannis made the correct read, saw the lob coming and met ayton at the rim instead.. that ain't crazy good thats crazy smart, executing under that much pressure in the dying seconds/minutes of a finals game.. what a play
We all should learn "Y'all better put some respect on my name," in Greek.
Tremendous stuff.
I'm with you
I respect that, a lot of dudes wouldn’t even jump

Amazing reflexes and timing, and honestly probably a little bit of foresight and luck with the coordination. Amazing.

Gruesome injury yet he wants to play and dont want to be sidelined for the rest of the season. I cant imagine how others just twist there ankles a lil bit and some just slips on the floor and then already had a torn acl. What a joke. Giannis is the real one. Mamba mentality.

Damn if this game goes to 7, I’d roll with bucks. They are proving to themselves they can overcome anything this postseason. I feel like Giannis would will the bucks to win

Still unreal to think he played on a hyperextended knee

That’s one of the craziest blocks I’ve seen that recovery was insane giannis is a freak of nature
Giannis had that mamba face
It’s a beautiful thing seeing Kobe’s students head to head putting up amazing games
Block was literally from an Anime 🤣 this the type of play Generations of Miracles would do on a court
Best block ever I've ever seen in the Finals in my over 20yrs of watching the NBA!
Most beautiful piece of timing ever.
Mike breen commentating reaction making this play more insane and intense
That's what we call Playing "Above the Rim"!🏀
Run and Dunk is about to win a chip before dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble dribble shoot 🤣😂
Lol love it. Mr. Run and dunk man dominating consistently in his first finals
Because dribble dribble was hurt is the only reason Mr Run and dunk man is in the finals so I wouldn’t be to hype about that
@@semionjohnson1351 excuses look the injury giannis had
@@semionjohnson1351 🤦♂️
Fun fact : run and dunk won more finals games than dribble dribble dribble shoot
This is what Yannis does several years now…..guarding "everyone else"
Kobe Bryant would've definitely give The Greek freak his props for that!
Yah and draymond said he was the greatest defender ever. Gannis is something special
come on lets not forget all the great defensive plays draymond made in the playoffs
Dray is a great defensive coordination/leader, Giannis is a good all around defender, but prefer to guard the post since he is a PF... Giannis would benefit if played with dray on the defensive end.... Giannis is not close to Drays defensive IQ, every coach in the nba knows it Giannis knows it as well, you should too
Draymond made some clutch defense too in the playoffs sadly y'all don't even remember that because of his reputation as a player damn casuals
@@maximuslee9126 Well Draymond's defense a lot of the time won't come up in highlights. Because he is 6'7 with average athletism and sees plays before they happen. He is a great defender cause of his IQ. While Giannis will do things like this. To appreciate Draymond you have to watch games. So obviously people will remember Giannis highlights a lot more.
@@peteraudu4554 People just think he's all round washed because of his scoring/shooting regression. But his defense and playmaking are all still there.
