3. Giannis Antetokounmpo vs. New York Knicks

How can you not make a list like this when people call you the Greek Freak?

It's not the name that does it, though -- it's Giannis Antetokounmpo's game that earns him a place among the NBA's great performers. Once again, he proved that against the New York Knicks last week when he feasted on their bad defense.

In 41 minutes, Antetokounmpo did more than satisfy his appetite by racking up 32 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks for a true shooting of 59.9% and a usage of 30.4%. In the Bucks' 104-93 win in Milwaukee, he yielded a nERD of 55.35 -- good for third-best in the Association last week.
