Support by buying my NBA T-Shirts: https://heatcheck.info/ The mystery of the stolen ball that led to the big scuffle is very complicated but I got all the footage to show you exactly what happened. The chain of events starts even during the game, as there was a lot of chipiness, Giannis elbowing Haliburton, and a hard foul on Antetokounmpo himself that turned into a scuffle, and look at Thanasis with the all time hold me back moment. Dude is literally hooking his teammate’s arm, to hold him here. This is hilarious. Giannis then dunks the ball with 20 seconds to go and I guess this made the Pacers extra salty. So now we get to the key moment. Watch closely as Milwaukee’s equipment manager follows the shot and immediately goes to the ref to get the game ball. This ball is supposed to be given to Giannis for his career high 64 points. As he collects game balls from some more meaningful games. A newly leaked footage shows us that the Bucks team secures it. But just seconds later, we see a basketball in the hands of Indiana’s equipment manager to give it to their rookie for his first NBA points. The Greek freak sees what’s going on and comes in storming, saying “that’s the game ball”. Obviously he wants it. What Giannis doesn’t know is that the official game ball is with them, and this is the reserve ball that we see right here. You can see the Bucks staffer telling him “we got it we got it” but Antetokounmpo doesn’t listen. As the Pacers guy takes off towards the tunnel, Giannis starts chasing him. This is how we get to this chaos. Now because there is a bit of rivalry and chipiness stemming from the in season tournament already, now Indiana guys led by Miles Turner are adamant to not give the ball back.. Antetokounmpo comes out furious and starts berating Haliburton. This is almost like he’s ordering him to go get the ball. This back and forth lasts for almost an hour, and even tho eventually Giannis does get his ball, he doesn’t think it’s the one they played with. Don’t worry Giannis, it is the game ball that you have. To make matters even worse, all of this started because of the rookie, but he did already score his first points in the in-season tournament final. Now there are some technicalities here because the final game does not count towards the regular season so it’s not official- official. The entire situation got very hot, very quickly and it’s only going to get more interesting as these 2 teams have 2 upcoming games in January. Contrary to this, the Lakers and the Mavs were all hugs and smiles after the game, and Lebron had to give respect to Luka for what he did to him and the Lakers. Check it out right here. Talk to you in the next one. Peace out.
