The fans are in your face every night. If you can't handle a fan yelling "this is what we ******* do" at you then you should walk off the floor after the game.

I'm not saying Tyrese's dad is in the right, he's not, but the "this should never happen" holier than thou crap is so lame. The Bucks are as soft as they come, is anyone really surprised they collapsed so spectacularly last night?

Tyrese's dad was 100% wrong for coming onto the floor and interacting with Giannis. My guess is that he will be punished by the NBA.

Giannis is not without fault though. To me it appears that the heated exchange between Giannis and Tyrese's dad only occurred after Tyrese's dad went back to his seat and Giannis sought him out. Giannis initiated the interaction that they are showing in the highlights. He felt disrespected, so he sought out Tyrese's dad and put his hands on him. Then, he was shaking hands with the Pacers players and for some reason decided to grab the back of Mathurin's head and pull him against his shoulder and not let go. Totally unacceptable. Punk move. Pacers are lucky a fight did not break out. They could have lost players for the next round.

Giannis and Dame have been trying to bully and intimidate the Pacers for the last two years. The issue with the game ball in Milwaukee last year was ridiculous and totally manufactured by Giannis. I used to think Giannis was a humble superstar, but I have lost a lot of respect for him.

The Pacers own the Bucks and Giannis doesn't like it.

This will be my one and only post on this matter. Not saying who is right or who’s wrong, but watch the full game highlight posted in the previous page. Did Tyreses dad go on the floor? This is as close as he got to the floor and he was back standing at his sit by the Giannis made to the baseline.

Edit: I can't get the tweet to load but if you go to RG3's Twitter he has a good video of the interaction. Watch the first 10 seconds of this, his dad is definitely in the wrong.

Tyrese dad definitely was out of order. But why are we also going to ignore Giannis going after Mathurin and others too? Then giving another sanctimonious presser about others needing to be humble and he deserves more respect because he's won a championship. He's still a whiny baby who can't stand the Pacers.

Also, Bucks players needed to simply get the hell off the court. The altercations continued because they wanted to stick around and start fights. Not to mention woman beater Kevin Porter Jr right in the thick of that as well. Pacers come off lightyears more likeable than Milwaukee after this series.

I believe the confrontation below occurs later though. Tyrese's dad had moved back to his seat next to Tyrese's mom by the basket. Giannis pursued him to let him know that he didn't appreciated the interaction shown in the photo above.

I know I'm biased, but Giannis is so much more overrated than Tyrese. All he has is drive the lane with his lanky ass arms and do a Euro step that takes him 25 feet and get fouled.

Way up there
Lebron expending a ton of energy so far, he's had great first halves but hasn't been able to maintain it for 4qtrs, going to be tough tonight.

Wolves are just cranking 3's knowing they can destroy LA on the offensive glass. Refs are making themselves known.
