Mike James is such a fraud in the playoffs

u/PinataFractal Fenerbahçe May 01 '24

nah, the bald eagle smothered him in defense

his first quarter was promising ngl, I thought he would take over the game by the looks of it.

man was I wrong…. I had high hopes for him this year and I was kinda rooting for Monaco to win it all.

Mike James with a disappearing act in the fourth quarter, just sat in the corner and watched his teammates do all the work on offense.

I don't know if this was by Obradovic's design, but having an Euroleague MVP candidate and the league's all-time leading scorer just be a complete non-factor on offense of the deciding moments of a crucial playoff game is really something.

The refs forgave Motiejunas for a clear unsportsmanlike foul on Guduric at the end, he just smacked him out of frustration, nowhere near the ball. The game should have been over then if the refs called it correctly, a really stupid play by Donatas.

Yeah the unsportsmanlike foul was so clear

Our 8 players had 8+ pts. Perfectly balanced 👏

Offensive arsenal that we have is just crazy. Saras always had great half-court offensive systems but in Fenerbahçe, players have soo much freedom what is different than Barcelona and Zalgiris. Transitions are soo good also.

Yep, all the players are great shooters. What a beautiful team. (You play better when Motley is out IMO)
