Is this true? I like to think I follow a good amount of knowledgeable NBA guys and I see probably 5x more about Joel Embiid than I do Giannis. Maybe I'm following the wrong guys.
Imagine if Giannis played for the Knicks/Lakers/Celtics/Bulls, holy **** the hype would be on levels never before seen. I think we need to wait until Giannis makes noise in the playoffs to get that satisfying national recognition we are looking for
