Where's the Beta Index? Wiggins #1. No, he'd be #2. Beta at beta.

It's cool that they advertise it as the "AntetokounBros", but I like that Thanasis is just kinda there and is like the Johnny Drama to Giannis' Vinny Chase.

You got my And1 8-)

I'm waiting for Thanasis to yell "VICTORY", when he finds a NBA team.
No hay banda.

Thanasis is not good like Giannis but he can still play in the NBA i think.. he can easily be a bench player in most of the NBA teams..

He is better defender than giannis.
Also he is a high energy guy, pacey and very athletic.
Also he will always do what the coach and the team needs.
And that's all. I dunno if these things are enough for a spot in a good NBA team though.

He is not better,far from it but he is a good energy guy that plays hard on defense.
I think he could be a good cheap addition to our bench considering that we got players like JOB in there.

Yeah thats fine i mean given the state of our bench last year i don't doubt he could find a spot there just don't see any way if he's a better defender then giannis with athleticism to boot that he couldn't get a crack with the knicks.

If that was true he would have an NBA contract.

Eh im not so convinced that the Knicks got the best eye for the talents or how to manage them.Not saying that Thanasis is a great one but he definitely got overlooked when Knicks needed defense.

Thanasis is the kind of player that Sacremento needs...Guys that are just grinders and will work their asses off to be in the NBA. May never be active in a game, but those kind of guys can help turn the culture and can maybe find roles as 3 and D down the road.
