Giannis won that round, Bam wins plenty. Giannis almost always plays well below his standards against us.

If it was one on one Giannis would clown bam for whatever he wanted to get. Heat sell out to stop Giannis and make the rest beat you and he still had 28, 17,5,2,1

Nobody let alone bam can guard Giannis one on one. Giannis would dunk on his head every time. Bam might have been credited but believe me there was help waiting

December, October. No, Jrue. Miami sends more than Bam at Giannis. They walled up, Giannis passed the rock & you guys had no business winning in that series.

Bam is truly ascending to the next level

In the last 10-15 games he's ascending so hard to being the third best at a position when there is a clear 1-2 better than him? That's awesome! He's a great player and playing incredibly. So he's ascending to a 2nd team All-NBA position possibly. Celebrate him for that instead of dragging down and insulting all of the other players.


You are aware that "Ascending" means that you are still rising... It doesn't mean you have reached your full potential to be the top guy.

He's a better player than people here give him credit for and would thrive offensively with any other coach.

KD is an all-time great player, even coming back first game from injury Bam can't really be compared to him. Admittedly that is kind of a knock on Bam being an actual MVP level player, but still as someone that has always rooted against the Miami Heat, he's really damn annoying that's all I'll say.

Just like you had no business the year before. You won one game and it was the game Giannis sat out when you were down 0-3 lol. Every year is different.

I think we need to stop with the Bam v Giannis guarding each other stat comparisons. When Giannis gets the ball against the Heat it is always (as in 100% of the time), 2-3 guys against Giannis. Bam gets credited a bit, but he's not guarding him one on one. He can't do it alone. It's why Heat have to throw bodies at Giannis. They know Bam is just not good enough to do it alone.

Kawhi got the same credit in 2019 but it took help defense to stop Giannis.

It would be like if Jrue took credit for a possession when Giannis helped him contest Derozan on a double team last night. Only employ that defense a whole game.

Okay so youre just delusional. Understood. That makes MUCH more sense now!


Frontrunner for DPOY?

Here are the current odds for DPOY:
1. Gobert (-160) - You gotta bet $160 to win $100
2. Giannis (+425) - Bet $100 to win $425
...

...
8. Bam (+4000) - Bet $100 to win $4,000


Not sure how much of a frontrunner that is.

Didn't read thread but his stats are worse than last years stats. It seems he's plateauing. This is a no thought view though.

That calls itself a parody account. Is it presenting genuine data even so?
