Harden on Giannis: “I wish I could just run and just dunk. That takes no skill at all.”

Gosh you consistently post things that are wrong all the time.

 

I wish harden never played for this shitty franchise

rockets fans see skin color.. just like texans and astros fans do. They hate kpj because kpj is fully black and jalen green is half asian( we got a lot of asians on this site)

 

Are you actual capable of making coherent arguments or are ad hominem attacks all you know?

Arentyou the same dude who swore up and down nobody wants to be Giannis the year before he won Finals MVP? How about when you kept swying the Rox should have traded for Ben Simmons and made a mistake with the Nets deal? Check your own post history dude you aint exactly a bball savant.

 

The most underrated thing in the nba is ball handling. Giannis came into the nba as a point guard despite his size. His ball handling is a big part of why he’s successful in the nba. It’s why he doesn’t just “run and dunk”. And it’s why guys like Chet and Bonchero have a chance to be better than Jabari; despite his elite shooting

 

Their careers went in different directions since this comment.

 

Im not gonna wast time with someone who has terrible arguments to begin with. Ive been there before, its not worth it. LMAO "ChRiS PaUl iS a ChOKer."

No, I said no one wants to play like him and its true, he's not inspirational in that sense.

 

Everybody wants to play like Giannis just like everyone wants to play like Shaq.

Its true that they're both more skilled than given credit for, and its also true that both wouldn't be NBA players if they were 6'6".

That doesn't take away from the fact that they're just more dominant than anyone else, and that wins titles.

 

No one wants to play like them really, why do you think Shaq's shoes never really sold. People want to play like Curry,Durant, and Ja Morant.

 

Nah your exact words are nobody grows up wanting to be like Giannis.

How the hell is that true? Lots of people want to play lile Giannis even Harden himself as per this thread.

Harden: "I WISH I CAN JUST RUN AND DUNK LIKE GIANNIS"
Hp3: nobody wants to play like Giannis and it's true.

Newsflash bro, just cuz you say something is true doesnt mean it is.

 

I think it’s more that players physically cannot play like Shaq or Giannis, so why bother trying to emulate them?

 

Did you know how stacked the Lakers and the Celtics were in the early 80s?

 

If nobody wants to be like him why is consistently a top All star?

Shaq and Giannis' shoes did sell, just not as much as guard shoes. You act like nobody bought their **** which isnt a surprise considering the ridiculous leaps of logic you always take to try to prove yourself right.

Buying their shoes is not an indication whether you want to be like them or not duh. You dont buy shoes that dont fit you just because you want to be that NBA player.

 

Its not that nobody wants to play like them. Can you imagine how fun it would be to physically humiliate grown men who worked their entire lives to be the best at their field by sheer strength and athleticism?

Its that nobody can play like them. Everyone knows that their success is based on titan-esque genes (even tho that applies to everyone in the NBA). An 8 year old can look at 5'11" CP3 dominate the game off his tight handle, supernatural vision, and midrange finishes and go out and practice them. A 6'1" teenager can look at Curry dominate games just by pulling up from 30 feet and go out and practice 3s. The best example seen recently is watching some fat santa-claus looking ass guard named James Harden drop 35 a game for two seasons by taking the mid-range game behind the 3 point line. It's crazy how many kids started shooting step-back 3s because of him.

Guards sell shoes because they're more relatable than the bigs. They inspire the youth to expand their games to emulate the best. Wtf are you supposed to do to play like Giannis?

 

I am over him, just not over the level of love you have for your man.....but hey that's you.

DD

 

Why are people comparing shaq and Giannis. They aren’t similar players

 

Orlando Shaq was an insane athlete, not that far off.

I draw the comparison because those are the two players I think of when I think of players who won titles by simply being so physically dominant compared to everyone else that their lack of "skill" didn't matter.

 

Eat a lot and go to the weight room?

 

Fair enough but I don’t think Shaq had near as good handles as Giannis

 

I think that's fair. But I guess they arent relatable is a better word for it.

 

No one really aspires to play like Giannis, he doesnt inspire people basketballwise lmao, which is what I said.

LMAO. People are practicing the step backs way more than what Giannis does. He doesnt inspire people like say a Steph Curry would.

LOL. So you took Harden talking **** as a statement that dudes are getting inspired by Giannis basketball wise,....holy hell.

You.....are so...oh my god, just stop man.
