It's crazy how much better he looks when he knows he's the guy on offense. I don't get it.

I feel like Giannis gets in his way a lot tbh

Dame being aggressive and touching paint is so important for us. Everything opens up.

Mark Williams isn’t all he’s cracked up to be

Giannis BBIQ is lacking, hes probably top 5 ever if he had a better feel for the game.

Lillard seems pretty happy about Middleton being gone

If Giannis had even slightly above average BBIQ it wouldn't be fair for the rest of the league.

I've often joked that Giannis plays with low BBIQ intentionally to be nice and give the rest of the league a chance.

If any team's actually watching and interested, pretty good game to boost Brook/Bobby trade value, this Hornets team being bad helps a lot. Still need to flip one for an athletic defensive C.

Lots of weird takes. Lol

If Giannis has low bball IQ whatever the **** that means who has a high bball IQ?

If he just wanted or expected the ball 5% less of the time it would improve his game tenfold but alas.

Giannis doesn't have a low BBIQ. He sees the floor pretty well, but certainly not as good as Khris. Jokic and Luka are elite. The best were Magic Johnson and myself, the BigO.

Jokic? Lebron? I mean those are the types of guys we are talking about as his peers. No one is ever saying Giannis has nearly the same level of feel for the game as those guys.

Are we really turning Dame having a good game against a trash Hornets team down like 7 players into Giannis being a basketball dimwit?

Here's a thought - how about Dame recognizes he's a top 75 guy and it's his 2nd year here, he can just play with aggression whenever he wants, whether Giannis is on court with him or not. It's why we **** traded for him, to be that dude on O.

Dimwit no but clearly he struggled to adjust his playstyle to another superstar in the lineup with him. You think Jokic would have the same issue working well with Dame?
