Giannis would make one hell of a politician.

Yeah Vaginnas is no good piece of shit scumlord

Any way you slice it he's an narcissist of the highest order. If he isn't involved in that, he at the very least tries to protect his image at all costs and could have said he is never going to leave Milwaukee if he actually wanted to stay.

Ahahahaha, perfect play right here

 

[Croaker]

See? Can't handle when someone upstages him and has to make it about himself.

Can't wait for Pelinka and Bimbo Buss to get canned.

 

[MusterX]

So you sold the team to a family who doesn't know or care about basketball and now you want it back. Cuban you F'ing clown.

 

[Croaker]

I have no idea how Cade Cunningham isnt the overwhelming favorite for MVP.

#1 team in the East

One of the worst rosters

Zero shooters

zero bench help

legit what the fuck is this guy working with, you see them vs the Hornets right now and the Hornets are so much more talented. The only thing the Pistons have is some brolic looking MFers who can barely play defense while they mean mug the opponent lmao

Giannis has been the best two way player in the league for a while now, and that’s not really debatable.

LeBron James exists

Kawhi Leonard exists

Anthony Davis exists

Victor Wembanyama exists

Joel Embiid exists

Anthony Edwards exists

Bam Adebayo exists

Seems pretty debatable to me

The Maybe Kawhi like 5 years ago.

Wemby got next, but none of these guys are better as 2way players over the past 2-3 years. Adebayo vs Greek Freak, really?

Anthony Edwards is an above average defender, but he’s not on Giannis’s level, especially when you factor in rim protection / guarding bigs. Edwards hasn't even been second team all defence..

Lmao @ bringing in voting credentials

Ant is better at guarding other guards, something Giannis can't do. Giannis can only switch and delay he cant stop elite guards. If you want to bring up rim protecting and guarding bigs then only big guys will be the best two ways in your book.

Bam is a better defender than Giannis and its not close. Bam and Alex Sarr (used to be AD) are two bigs who have the footspeed to defend 1-5. Giannis can't do that. Bam is probably the most underrated player in the the league. Shit, Jimmy Butler was an elite 2 way player too and he whipped Vaginnis sorry ass. Bam is also underutilized as an offensive option too.

Anthony Davis when healthy was a better 2 way than Vaginnis too. He could do everything defensively and casually put up 30 points a night.

Vaginnis is a great player and has a great motor. You can argue he's a more consistent and as a result "better" player overall. The problem is other guys are right there with him and if they were allowed to just PnR like Karl Malone they'd put up more numbers too. We pretend that he's more successful than other bigs when he just isnt. It's really weird how getting bounced in the playoffs vs shit teams is more impressive for Giannis image than it is for a guy like AD losing to Joker and the Nuggets.

I understand injuries and all that, but I feel like people dont understand how good some of these other bigs are.

Wow. Wonder how cum...
