He's going to peak years after his peers and it's going to be awesome.

Some people may consider it inappropriate to have man-love for someone 10 years younger than them on the other side of the world. Screw them.

Giannis in the last 15 games:

17.5 pts, 8.1 reb, 2.9 ast, 1.2 stl, 1.3 blk, 2.9 tov 57.1 ts %

i thought he was max 16 ppg.
HMMM.
I guess if he gets the shooting he will get 17 ppg max right ?

Romans are OK with it.

Man, fantastic shooting by Giannis yesterday, he looked soo confident.
I really hope he keeps this up and when it comes down he will explo.

Since breaking out of his slump in that Chicago game he's been averaging 18/9/3 on 58% TS (17 games). And that's including one horrible game bringing down his averages, he's at 19/9/3 on 60% TS minus that game (16 games). He is sooo close to a breakout.

Yea, decided to check myself. Still nowhere near high enough.

And during that stretch there has been plenty of games where i haven't thought he has played that well or had a massive impact but he's still got those numbers and efficiently. Sign of a player that is feeling more comfortable and at ease offensively when his off nights are still a massive jump up from his previous years.

Curious to know what level of knowledge Kobe has about Giannis. I went back and checked the highlights and realized that the one game they played each other was probably Giannis's single best outside shooting night of his career :lol:

On 21-year-old Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bryant said, "He's unbelievable. I don't think he understands how much talent he has. He has a lot of talent and I'm looking forward to going up against him tomorrow.

"But also to talk to him about the potential he has and how to maximize that."

Hopefully isn't in for a rude shock tomorrow night.

But hopefully not to tell him how he needs to get the hell out of Milwaukee and play in a bigger market. :-?

Does anyone else ever think about how much hype he would get nationally if he played in New York or LA? It would be insane.
