The Miami Heat are down 3-0 in their opening-round playoff series to the Milwaukee Bucks, but their fanbase has delivered what might be the best way to distract Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The Greek Freak was whistled earlier in the series for a 10-second violation during a key free-throw down the stretch in Game 1. Yeah, that’s right — he took too long to take one from the charity stripe, something that’s been noted about him for years.
He hit 68.5 percent from the line this season, so perhaps he’s trying to take his time to make those key shots, especially when they really count.
With all that in mind, now you know why Heat fans counted the seconds during his FTs in Game 3:

Here’s the 10-second violation from Game 1, and TNT hilariously put on a shot clock for him:

If the Bucks move on, you have to think this might follow him to his next matchup.
