Giannis Antetokounmpo's MVP campaign continued last night @ MEM. An (unexpected) shootout, Giannis took adv. of the game's pace and imposed his will...once again.
And with only 1 triple attempted, his dominance inside & at the line (7-9) gave MIL the edge - MEM's interior D didn't offer much resistance, perimeter defenders consistently lost him at the point of attack.
27 pts, 9 boards, 7 dimes (44 min.)
Semi-pedestrian night for Giannis, whose own standards evolve by the game. Most importantly, MIL came away w/ a tough road victory v. a difficult opponent - they go for 4 in a row v. DET tomorrow.
