PNR with CP3/Luca/Lebron with Giannis as the roll man and Curry and Lillard ready to shoot is the most unstoppable play possible.

A ring and finals MVP and Giannis has all the hardware.

Only missed rookie of the year and 6th man, he's got the rest.

Seeing Giannis with the rest of the all-stars in one place really drives home what an awesome freak he truly is. You can't guard him unless your whole team is ready to put their safety on the line.

Also drives home how insanely fun and good Giannis/Bucks would be with either an elite playmaker or scorer next to him.

Let's not ignore the fact that they play JV-level defense in these games.

Think Steph Curry wants to sign here for '22-23?

I just watched a bit, but it looked like a varsity vs jv squad. Team lebron taking half court shots is pretty telling how easy it was. Lebron had elite shooters and bigs. Durant had the volume shooters and chuckers. Does anyone think the Celtics ever go anywhere with that roster? Tatum is so underwhelming and brown is ok. They seem like decent pieces if they had a superstar.

That ending is how i'd imagine Giannis winning a chip. Giannis feasting in the paint for three quarters (let's ignore the bad d)and elite shooters closing it out.
In reference to our title winning year

I mean the Bucks are surviving in the top 4 off a lucky pick by Hammond and a throw in from the Brandon Jennings trade. Meanwhile, all these All Stars are just picking a team to all go on. WTF is the point of coaching and player development when it's all fixed and they just join up on the same team.

But when Milwaukee tries to make a move to upgrade to Bogdon on a legit even trade and it's tampering F#ck this ****..

Basketball is the point. Statistically a team from California or the East coast is gonna win it 3 out of 4 times, that's just how it's always been and how it always will be. And that's fine, but can we at least watch some proper hoops without finger **** and watering down the game every time some marketing dude has some bright idea how to make it more attractive to casuals?

I hear you and agree. It just gets annoying hearing the only championships matter and nothing else circle jerks by the few people that get to win one so F them all but yeah let's just enjoy whatever we can while Giannis is still here. With him there's always a chance we get someone here somehow. It's nice to be in the conversation

I totally forgot this was last night. Dang, really wish I saw Giannis win that. Congrats!
