When I watch Giannis play, I dont see a 2x MVP at age 25

[Yapdatfool]

Isn't that why they got Jrue Holiday?

Isn't it cause hes better on offense than Bledsoe was? Bucks got two people who can and use neither one...

 

[Budda]

He'll be a HoF lock but he's a #2 option masquerading as a #1. Unless a better offensive option walks through the door, you're not winning a ring with Giannas being your best offensive player.

You’re not winning a ring with Harden as your best player. Or Durant is not winning a ring without at least 1 top 10 NBA player in his team, these are all proven facts that can be said for just about anybody. Basketball analysis is lazy at this point.

 

[MostReal]

Me either
His halfcourt game is trashy
He needs to learn some post moves, some finesse and add some midrange Tim Duncan style too his game

 

[ClutchVon]

Bron was taking them deep in the playoffs. Gamnis can't get past the second round .

Jrue Holiday > Mo Williams

Middletown > Big Z

Giannis literally made it past the second round 2 years ago.


Thread is hilarious.

Yes it does matter. Teams dictate there success on how far into playoffs they get. If Khawi lost last round, the amount of smoke he would've gotten is a lot more than if he loses this round.
A coach can get fired or a team can be blown up for a first round exit whereas a deep run may mean you just need a few more pieces

Thanks for proving my point.

This.

nikkas trying to act like Giannis doesnt' have a good team around him makes me sick.

Holiday
Middleton
Lopez
DiVencenzo

shyt is way better than what LeBron had in Cleveland. Hell, that roster is barely worse than some of Dame's rosters or even Curry's 2012-2015 rosters.

Good is relative to the competition. What team did LeBron face in the 2nd round of the Eastern Conference as good as this Nets team?

nikkas talking about competition like Giannis didn’t lose in the first round to the Celtics without Kyrie.

Middleton out played him in Game 7.

I agree, I don't like his game. He has little skill, just a physical freak and uses it to his advantage (as he should )

I'm taking guys like Tatum, Trae, Luka, Booker and Mitchell over him

 

[Johnny Kilroy]

He woulda been a monster in the 90’s/early 2000’s. Today’s game is too perimeter oriented and he gets easily shut down in the playoffs. Bottom line is he has no jumper.

Bud could use him much better than they do

Those mid 2000's Pistons teams and the 2008 Celtics were REALLY well-rounded and great defensively, and had a lot of scorers on offense.

The Nets offense obviously better than those teams, but LeBron's supporting casts those years was way worse so it evens out.

The 2008 and 2010 Celtics would be the correct answer and LeBron performed accordingly ie subpar to his regular season efforts. I remember very clearly what the narrative about LeBron was at the time.

All I'm saying is, the script can change extremely quickly in this league.

He gets so much room To shoot.

Sad that he don’t have a a perimeter game

I’ve been stuck on this play for days man...this is sad.

Legit looks like some shyt on 2k when a guy isn’t good but just tries to mash turbo speed. This dude has two MVP’s man...
