Ok Giannis is good and is having a great year, but something bothers me. Why does he not block more shots? being a 6'11 athletic freak who gives effort on defense you would expect he would be one of the league leaders in blocks, instead he only blocks 1 shot per game trailing guards like Caruso and White even a midget like FVV has 0.9 bpg

I finally watched his documentary.

I lost track of how many times I cried. What an emotional ride. :cry: Giannis is the greatest WI sports icon of all time.

I love this guy so much.

Anyone going to this

https://wtmj.com/sports/2024/03/18/thanalysis-live-podcast/


In a first-of-its-kind event, the eldest of the Antetokounmpo brothers will record his next podcast in front of a live audience Friday, March 22 at Potawatomi Casino Hotel.

“I’m very excited,” Thanasis tells Wisconsin’s Midday News. “It’s my first live [podcast] so it’s only fitting that I interview my brother.”

That’s right – Thanasis’s guest will be none other than his brother, Giannis.

Isn’t Francis the eldest brother?

I made the mistake of reading comments on a random Facebook post. Almost no one mentioned Giannis as a top 2 player, some ranked him 5th after Jokic, Luka, Embiid, SGA, and some didn't have him in their top 5 at all... and at least one didn't have him in their top 10.

Also chuckled at someone's reasoning for Giannis being left out: He fired a 30-13 coach for a worse one, so that needs to factor in.

Sure, who cares, but it's crazy how media narratives and recency bias shape peoples' opinions. :lol:

winning cures public perception, and we are very much 'what have you done for me lately', bucks arent leading the east, and got bounced out of the playoffs in the 1st round last year.

None of my business but fascinating nonetheless. For someone as obsessed with family as Giannis is, Francis seems to be a footnote.

When Francis put out an album Giannis was promoting it pretty heavily. If he didn't care about him, they'd never even try to contact him. He can't help that his parents had to leave him behind in Nigeria & they didn't grow up together.

Giannis made it to the Top 75 all time scorers list. Kind of crazy as a 29 year old. Will be pretty damn close to Top 50/20kClub end of next year.

On one hand, we are seeing something literally without precedent and also the precedent doesn't have an analog approaching it.

On the other hand, the team playing in the media capitol of the world has the palatable version of James Harden.
