Giannis’ Mid Range Game Completes Final Piece of the Puzzle
Giannis Antetokounmpo had one thing missing from his game. An intermediate shot. Also known as a mid range shot. Now, this is a shot that makes many people cringe at the sound of it. For most people, it is a dead shot in the game of basketball. But for a guy like Giannis, he needed to develop one to fend off defenders and to keep defenses honest against him. Many felt it was the last piece of the puzzle for complete domination. Well, I regret to inform anyone that isn’t a Bucks fan that Giannis has one now and it’s wonderful. He started to bring it in his game recently and a Bucks Twitter member pieced all of the mid range shots together. This is porn for Aaron Rodgers.
Updated all of the midrangers from Giannis in the past four games. Could watch this all day, he’s really doing it differently this season between 3’s and now these. MVP. pic.twitter.com/RfbedxvrgH

Giannis created his version of Dirk Nowitzki’s favorite shot. The fadeaway jumper off one foot where you can some distance but don’t exactly lose all your strength in your shot. Now, all of these were makes, and curious to see if he missed anyone, but holy shit, we could be on the verge of something awesome. How does a team stop him when they cannot build a wall or guard him 1-on-1?
Make sure you’re on the lookout for the mid range game the next time you watch the Bucks.
