THE NBA been trying to make him a thing for three years now . .. . so they get their wish Rocket River
lol i stopped watching in 2nd quarter while hawks were down by 9 but it felt whole time like hawks stand no chance in this game ...just weak energy and playing scared all around
If Giannis wins this he deserves it. Dude's been playing like an MVP should be. No whining that he is on a small market team with 0 other superstar teammates either.
Funniest part of the game. Capela getting called for an offensive foul. Even Giannis must have laughed at the absurdity of that one.
how tf do yall just make up these narratives? They paid a kings ransom for jrue holiday and we know damn well they did it because they were scared to death he'd be out the door if bucks werent competitive this year Credit where credit is due. The front office did their part and built a legit team around him
Compare freaking Jrue Holiday to Jimmy Butler and the Miami Heat or Steph Curry and GSW. It's no secret these teams were recruiting Giannis pretty hard before he signed that super max deal. He didn't even wait to become a free agent and hear other offers he put that speculation to bed immediately and gave Bucks time to make deals to add to their roster. You act like Jrue Holiday and Chris Middleton are superstars they wouldn't be all stars if they played in the West, alright? Jrue Holiday is like an above average pg in the West and you wanna give Bucks credit for the supporting cast of Jrue, Middleton and PJ Tucker?????
Think Giannis has to win it all this year, or it may not happen. They are a good team, but they have a lot of holes compared to the elite teams. This is his best chance to do it as constructed. Admire his loyalty, but not sure it should have been rewarded without an upgrade to the roster.
He timed it right, he can cash out and would still be young enough around 30 ish to ride someone's coat tails. And no guy in Wisconsin would fault him for leaving by then.
Stephen A has a history of personally insulting people. On Brook Lopez " He's too slow and he isn't willing to come out to guard Young". Somebody make a clip of Brook quick on his feet and forcing Trae to commit a turnover while playing Stephen A's rant video side by side.
Holiday and Middleton are both top 40 players. Superstars? No. Very high end teammates to have? Absolutely.
It won't be tough to name 40 better players than Holiday. Maybe. Middleton is around top 30. Problem is that to win a championship you need at least 2 top 20 players.
Why do people think a team cant be stacked just because they dont have multiple superstars? Yes, jrue holiday, middleton and the rest of the bucks are a better supporting cast than any team in the west. And they are for sure better than the heat lmao. Giannis didnt “whine” and signed long term with the bucks because they coughed up and put their money where their mouth is to be a true contender. Hell they even gave us a pick for pj which is another clear overpay
We’re really going to pretend giannis is more loyal than any other star? Yall want to be on the right side of history so bad. Hes only 26. We’re going to assume he stays in milwaukee his whole career? Even the notorious team hoppers in recent years have stuck it out for longer. Lebron stuck it out in cleveland, kd stuck it out in okc, harden here
