Giannis dropped from 43% to 40% in the GM poll this year of what player you'd most want to build around.

Imagine being the GM who watched Giannis play this season and changed his mind to NOT wanting to build around him.

Knee injury scaring people?

Maybe? But he closed out the Suns with 50 points and 5 blocks 17 days after the injury, so it seems like maybe that's not a great reason.

Luka is the one causing the drop and it will keep happening because Giannis is 4-5 years older unless if Luka fails to go past the 1st/2nd round for the next 2-3 seasons.

So Giannis or Kareem as greatest all time buck? viewtopic.php?f=64&t=2127080

GM who cares less about defense but loves the 3?

That's exactly what we needed from our preseason. Everything else we are going to figure it out in the regular season.

I hate these type of comments, as it diminishes all the people the arguments are about.

This is not directed at you, but the constant need to rank people that I'm also guilty of, and I hate that I do it.

I agree with you, and that is why I posted this. It is funny how easily they switch from 0 to hero in no time ...
Last year Giannis was a playoff chocker, now...

Thanks for posting. Most players don't have a block highlight video for their entire career which compares to this. Just incredible.

Im almost as excited to see Giannis get announced as a top 75 player as I am for the bucks to get their rings. That is a crazy honor and he’s going to be one of the youngest guys on it.

that kid right there is happy

You can tell there's a weight off his shoulders... he just knows now, whatever happens, no matter how many FTs and threes he misses, he can always turn around and say "Yeah but I made them when it mattered" and that will shut everybody up.
Because it's true.

I hope he keeps up this FT routine just so we can hear every away game begin with fans counting and having to stop at 5 every time.

It'll probably be a relief for most of them. It gets tricky when you have to switch to the 2nd hand!
