Giannis Antetokounmpo should now be in the lead for MVP. 🦌

[TOAD99]

Giannis is turning it the fukk up lately

I think wins and a strong performance against Embiid and jokic head to head might get him the mvp

 

[No1]

All agendas and fandom aside, it hit me last last night just how wild it is to be witnessing this period of 3 legit bigs absolutely dominating the league with mutlifaceted games.

Bam, Porzingis, and Myles Turner are also ultra-skilled and they're mostly afterthoughts. BroLo paired with Giannis is such a cheat code. I just can't seethe Bucks losing a 7 game series with those two, Jrue, and their supporting cast.

I hate them. I was there in Brooklyn. KD had them . Why Kai X and Harden had to go down?

They're like 40-13 when he plays 32/12/6

He's a candidate

I'm not saying he's NOT a candidate, because I don't have control over what the media believes. I'm simply saying he hasn't been as consistent as Embiid and Jokic and thus doesn't deserve to be mentioned alongside them, along with a number of other factors (e.g. the Bucks being 11-6 without him).

Truth be told, this is his worst season in recent years. Inconsistent on offense and no notable impact on defense (not in relation to what his teammates are doing).

The fact that AD and KAT didn't even make it into this comment.....hell, or even Sabonis, JJJ, and Randle.

Tell us you only look at box score numbers without telling us you only look at box score numbers.

I was considering people who play mostly center…. AD I just forgot. KAT hasn’t played and although he’s a supreme talent I think he’s a clown and a waste and a loser. Domas is my guy, pure oversight. JJJ aight. Randle… I consider him a bully-slashing PF/SF type.

Joel Embiid is now mvp

Ohhhhh.... Shut up nikka and enjoy what these cats are doing on the court.

How about you STFU. How about that?

Looking like Jokic defending the rim. Helpless.

 

[TheNig]

He’s the only player that’s been top 3 in both of the straw polls that have come out…was a close 2nd place during the first third of the season, and 2nd again once Jokic jumped to the head of the race….literally the only player that’s been “in the conversation” the entire season…been averaging some variation of 30ish points 12rbs and 5ast with all nba first team defense all year, but he was “horribly inconsistent” because he wasn’t also at career best shooting efficiency on top of that

But then he has the nerve to talk about people having “agendas”

That nikka retarded...

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

That nikka retarded...

Giannis over the first third of the season -

Shooting 25% on all shots (besides at the rim)
54 eFG% - lowest since 2017 (to put into perspective Jokic has a 66 eFG%)
58 TS% - lowest since 2016 (to put into perspective Jokic has a 70 TS%)
65 FT% - second-lowest of his career
40 percentile for halfcourt scoring.

Efficiency matters, and Giannis has been anything but efficient.

He's only averaging 32 points purely because of how many shots he's putting up.

A lot of that had to do with the extra defensive attention he's been getting without Middleton, and that affected his play. He simply struggled to generate consistent offense in the halfcourt on the regular - I've made note of this many a time this season. Embiid and Jokic have both been definitively more consistent, like it's not even remotely close. Giannis has been great over the last 10 or so games, but his season has to be weighed in its entirety.

Is that not "horribly inconsistent" to you? @TheNig

A simple yes or no question.

I'm no psychologist but I think you have some form of functioning autism. I'm not even joking.

Is there a reason why you can't answer the question or do you wanna just keep making a fool outta yourself?
