Shaq not winning a ring has a rookie isn't a failure. Lol.

He just be talking out his ass.


When judged against magic's resume. In timeline to the misappropriated gaot title from bill russell. That jordan bested. To lose and not convert in your first final. Regardless of your nba life cycle. Prohibits you from goat talk in the previous generation. Now since the goat title was misappropriated from bill russell to bird. Then jordan best the criteria.
offered in fake narrative by the eastern seaboard media. Losing in the finals as a rookie. Or on your first visit. Used to be viewed.
in timeline versus the greats and goat argument. Yet this criteria is racist white and pervasive. So the subject matter changes and has no real fluid factual or contextual foothold. As it tties to downplay the civil rights activism of bill Russell. To take away the goat title from russell. As the goat title solidified in boxing for Ali. Can not be struck away jn basic sentiment. Nor can ali's social activism. The pervasive eastern seaboard media do not want that idea. becoming an indisputable general fact socially and in grassroots expression in America. So Shaq's comments. As they pertain to the racist eastern seaboard idea.
of the goat title being stripped from bull russell.
are welled in social relevant truth.

Nike making a post about it is weak. Giannis isn’t a failure but this season was one. He’s an All-Time great in his prime losing to Jimmy and that supporting cast is a failure.
Not when you miss half the series, you can't name a single team who would win a series with their best player missing half the games in a series

Sports media and Coli hypocrites are much softer on Euros, so the media and the Coli will forever treat Giannis’ 1 ring like they treated Dirk’s 1 ring in 20 years, meanwhile they will continue to disrespect players with multiple rings and MVPs like Curry, KD, Lebron whenever they get bounced out of the playoffs:mjlol:

nikkas went HARD at KD for losing with Kyrie and Harden injured.

Hard at Jimmy losing to Milwaukee when playing injured.

Hard at LeBron for...every little thing.

But this dude gets a pass. He put up 38 and 20 and all we hear is "but he was injured" :sadcam:

NBA plays favorites and narratives all day long. He got clapped up by a team missing Herro and Oladipo in 5. fukk outta here :camby:
Giannis was injured as well and missed multiple games/and played hobbled himself. Miami gets that asterisk special :camby:

full discussion

People are missing that what Giannis is trying to convey through a secondary language is putting all of your effort into a losing result is not an ultimate failure if you learn from those lessons in losing and build upon them to make further steps toward winning. That's why he tried to convey it as "steps" in that presser. He said in that presser they played 10 straight games of shyt basketball, he knows they "failed" in not continuing through the playoffs but to not understand the point he was trying to make is to put take-fest blinders on and not listen to the content in context.

They didn't get swept.

Aside from that, he missed 2 games and still came back and played with a fukked up back. That's heart. Anyone who's had a back injury will tell you that.

But either way, op, you've been dismissing anything said that isn't in line with whatever point you think you're making, and the excessive laughing emoji thingies show that you're very emotionally invested in this for some reason. Why? They lost, it sucks for them and the city, shyt happens. Get over it.

Miami lost Herro and Oladipo. Bam was playing with a hamstring injury. Giannis was on the court and every game he played in they LOST. #1 seed with everyone on that squad available for Game 5 while Miami is a play-in squad missing 2 key rotation players. FOH :russ:

Sports “fans” are fugazi now, this funny accent nikka gets passes MJ,Bron, Kobe, Steph or KD never got by the media injured or not :camby:

KD shouldn't get a pass. He's spent his whole career trying to form super teams. He'll get credit when he wins but he'll get slaughtered if he doesn't. That's the path he chose.
