If he chose to go there, even after seeing everything KD went through, I would question whether him or someone close to him has a brain injury. It’s an immediate legacy destroyer. If you want a super team and maintain your status in the league just do what Kawhi did and build your own team. He has the leverage to do that with any team he picks.
There are no simlarities with KD.
The Warriors are on a 15-50 record. They are not champions anymore, not even considered a top team by this board.
Every once in a while you see threads claiming that the warriors will not be a contender anymore, that they are past their prime etc.
The reasons Giannis has to play for GS are two:
1) he really likes steph and the two of them seem to get along fine
2) his girlfriend is from California and her parents live there
It's a certainty that his agents will add more to this:
-Bigger market, more endorsemements, more coverage.
Does Giannis cares for the above? Probably not. On the contrary he seems annoyed every time someone tries to follow him with a camera on the streets for example.
But his girlfriend and her family is not a factor you can take lightly. He clearly values family above everything.
If his family wants to go to California, this will be crucial.
Milwaukee is in pole position.
The team is ready, the coach is good, the front office one of the best. New arena, new practice facilities.
A quiet and peaceful environment for him to grow up his son away from the lights.
If they don't win this year, he will stay. He wants a championship there.
If they do win tho, my opinion is that he will walk. He will no longer have that motive and obligation.
