Now that I have no obligation to defend Harden anymore, I'm glad I can jump all in on Giannis and enjoy his time in the sun in peace.

It's also likely Barkley and Malone would have adapted their styles in this era as would any player to the era we hypothetically transport to. FFS. It's like saying Duncan would be nothing today.
Saw it a while back. Amazing guy.
No I meant a couple of hours back only.A while back? He did it today. Does he have previous, because that is even better!
No I meant a couple of hours back only.
Giannis went half sprite and half lemonade with that 50 piece order...yes!
Welcome to the side of the good. Feel free to cleanse your soul in the waters of Giannis's NBA.
I still like to take jabs at him sometimes for old times sake
He’s the reason why I haven’t used Bucks all that much on 2K21, way too easy to score with him in the paint making the game too easy. He was actually exactly that way yesterday so they probably just created him correctly.Incredible by Giannis.
One of the best series ever by a player and one of the best performances ever by a player.
I'm so glad he won after some of the criticism he was getting and the terrible media quips about him needing to leave to win a ring.
I can't get over how amazing he was. He was like a video game created player out there.
This post turned out to be an absolute jinx.
Is there another human as generally liked as Giannis? I don’t know a single basketball fan who would dislike him. I cannot even think of a single reason why people would not like him as a player or as a human. Seems so down to Earth and genuinely nice.

What ??I hope other STARS then decide to join Giannis instead!
All in all I am happy Giannis stuffed one in Harden's face for calling him unskilled and the fact Giannis did what Harden could never.
I agree. Way too soon although I'm hoping for 3 rings outta Giannis or hes a bust
I'm treating him like they treated Lebron. In fact, if he loses any finals and doesn't get 6 rings he's a damn BUSTWhat ??
was the best story in years. I was firmly routing against the Nets (hate all this clicking up) I was against the Lakers (although routed for them last year) and I wanted someone new to win. I hope the nets never win a title.Unbelievable achievement by the Bucks.
I doubted their coach, their superstar, their co-stars ... but here they are NBA champs 2021 and fully deserved that.
Even my wife who really doesn't follow basketball that much likes Klay. Steph falls into the same category as Lebron in that you either love him or hate him. I think he's probably the second most liked (behind Lebron) and the third most hated (behind Lebron and KD). Now that Giannis has won something I'm sure people will be ragging on him soon enough. It's a sign of greatness.May be an unpopular view but I don't like Klay all that much. He seems to be popular among fans online though. Personally I find Steph more likable.
Why ? He isn't a self proclaimed GOAT is he ?I'm treating him like they treated Lebron. In fact, if he loses any finals and doesn't get 6 rings he's a damn BUST
I probably like Steph more, but I know plenty of people who hate him or are bitter about him. I’ve never seen anyone have a bad word to say about KlayMay be an unpopular view but I don't like Klay all that much. He seems to be popular among fans online though. Personally I find Steph more likable.
This is just sadI'm treating him like they treated Lebron. In fact, if he loses any finals and doesn't get 6 rings he's a damn BUST
Sometimes I think you ought to write my posts. I was going to say that and then got sidetracked on to something else.I probably like Steph more, but I know plenty of people who hate him or are bitter about him. I’ve never seen anyone have a bad word to say about Klay

I'm surprised at that. Dame seems to come across as a likeable kind of guy - kind of a like a poor man's Steph. The other two I'm not surprised about. Lebron is disliked because he's great and KD is disliked because he's great and an asshole.The Most Hated Athletes In The World, Per Pickswise Data
you are nearly correct
- LeBron James (122,568 abusive terms)
- Marcus Rashford (32,328 abusive terms)
- Tom Brady (28,151 abusive terms)
- Kevin Durant (24,370 abusive terms)
- Bubba Wallace (21,750 abusive terms)
- Damian Lillard (20,904 abusive terms)
- Trevor Bauer (14,083 abusive terms)

I agree with all of that but since I constantly give Lebron shit I was trying to be nice for a change.Lebron is disliked because
1/ "The decision" - many fans felt he was weak and basically made the free agency superstars clicking up, a new trend making the NBA a bit boring.
2/ he has a lot of power to the extent he can decide who is at HIS franchises and many feel he has got players traded
3/ self professed chosen one and GOAT so seems self absorbed.
4/ lost many finals
5/ passive aggressive in the media
6/ outspoken on politics
7/ He is successful
8/ The China incident
9/ flopping
Dame gives it back on twitter just like KD does but without a burner
Let Jordan take three steps without calling a travel, like they do now, and no old school defense, he'd have scored 60 points every game!I would say that too. He's also in my top 5... so don't be so insulted by it. I only know him as the player he is, not what he could have potentially adapted too, and he very likely possibly could have... but then again, the big man average height is on the slide... so why aren't big men adapting in general(obviously some are, but the market isn't there, so it's more competitive to get in)... it's not a foregone conclusion because they were a legend in their time, they would of made it in a different time.
I also said Barkley would likely be more valuable... and Bird would basically be god.

But yes, Bird would have been spectacular in the modern game.
Ever seen this?
Klay.

No, he's disliked because he's a fakeass pretentious hypocriteI'm surprised at that. Dame seems to come across as a likeable kind of guy - kind of a like a poor man's Steph.

i don't like Lebron, never have but I thought I'd be nice for a change - see where that got me.No, he's disliked because he's a fakeass pretentious hypocrite
Its already started, The talking heads and media in general have started blathering on about "the shot" and how James' achievements last night are already the best in play-in history. In a fairly average performance he threw up a prayer with the shot clock winding down and it went in. Lebron was not great, he was outplayed by Steph most of the night. But no, according to the fanbois (looking at you Nick Wright) it was better than Jayson Tatum's 50 for the Celtics and of course Steph's 37. For years, I've had to listen to media suck ups tell me how James was carrying teams against monumental odds. It was always Lebron against the Warriors. Now with the tables having been turned and he having far and away the better team its still somehow all about him. It gets old.
That's in a nutshell. He contributed. You'd never know there was anybody else on his team. For years the Warriors achievements have been minimized because Lebron supposedly was playing against these tremendous odds, but the minute the shoe is on the other foot, the other team hardly gets a mention and as I said, it's still somehow all about him. I'm tired of it.
If the game yesterday had been game 7 and the Lakers had lost, I would have expected him to address the media in a body cast. He is the biggest drama queen in the NBA.
Three things about Lebron.
1) He's chasing rings.
2) He's got no shame.
3) He's got no loyalty.
If he thinks the Lakers can help him win another Championship he'll stick around. If not, he'll be off as soon as his contract allows. He also won't care who he joins up with as long as he can keep the narrative all about him.
