    This is probably buried somewhere in a thread, but allow me to divert the usual Russell Westbrook for Godzilla and a 12-pack of Bud tradecrafting for this tweet from Giannis that is getting some heat on Twitter :

    Funny how there were no clips of Hakeem's jump shot or any shot from distance. Hope the kid realizes he has a long way to go to being anywhere near as good as Dream.

    So, definitely not the Rockets, and probably the bulls?

    Y'all acting like Giannis cobbled the clips together on his own.

    He, Jordan and Hakeem were the only players to win both MVP and DPoY in the same year. That's it.

    Dude literally said "don't call me MVP until we win a title" and y'all thinking he wants to be compared to Jordan and Hakeem right now?

    Some of y'all hating just to hate.

    Well, he did re-post the video. But yeah, he is definitely not in the same league as MJ and Dream, no matter what awards he was given this year.

    whoever created that vid needs to have a seat and stop...And Brick Freak posting that? He really should’ve passed, because a vid like that is complete and utter trash.

    Brick Freak can’t hold Dream’s jockstrap, so nobody is trying to see that video...it’s like Derozan posting one with his and Kobe’s highlights mashed together...everybody would tell him to get that nonsense outta here

    It was a video just to acknowledge Giannis reaching a milestone only those two accomplished by winning MVP and DPoY. You don't think Rocket fans would do the same thing if Harden matched a Jordan accomplishment? And it would be just as ridiculous if we apply the same logic.

    As a Rocket fan with our current superstar, I thought we are impressed by regular season awards?

    and nobody wants to see it after he got exposed yet again and got bounced by Miami in the 2nd round

    If Harden got exposed and bounced in the 2nd round as a 1 seed? No...

    u seem to be obsessed with bringing up Jordan with Harden...not interested in that agenda

    Harden had some embarrassing bounces such as the Spurs series. He also severely drops his scoring and efficiency like Giannis in the playoffs. They are very similar in terms of perception of not being to elevate their game in the playoffs. The difference is Giannis has a lot more years to change that perception.

    Harden never got trounced in the 2nd round as a 1 seed to a team like Miami so all that stuff u posted doesn’t matter...u trying to interject Harden into every little thing is predictable and played out

    He still severely drops his performance relative to other stars in the playoffs like Giannis.

    Again, is that any more embarrassing than Harden losing the series to a Spurs team missing their best player especially in the manner that he did with the autrocous numbers?

    yawn

    yes, it absolutely is...Harden lost 1 game to the Spurs without their best player...Giannis as a contender and 1 seed was about to get swept in the 2nd round...just stop it with this nonsense
