I think Bingo had a good take on CP Radio about Gio - that he always plays at his maximum effort/intensity level. So while other players find another level in the playoffs - he doesn't have another level to find. He is a high end player, in part, due to his consistent high work rate and effort. During the regular season that allows him to perform at a higher level than others - but again - as they amp up in the playoffs - he's already at his peak.
