I'm not huge on them. I wasn't big on the 1s either but they grew and I absolutely loved the white/gold/red version. Bet there will be some awesome combos on the 2s that'll get me.

I've always enjoyed how Giannis is obviously thinking through his answers, asking for clarification when necessary. Part of that is just his respect for the person asking the question and their job, part of it is not being jaded, and maybe part of it is his wish to communicate clearly to the fans. Love it when he mentions the reporter by name, too. So happy Giannis was 'the card we were dealt' at 15.

Just watched Bucks Lakers 2016 on FoxWI. Kobes last game in Milwaukee and Giannis' 1st trip dub. Paschke said at the end of the game 'I wonder if Giannis thinks that Kobe knows his name?'. So poignant a moment to be captured given all that has passed since that game And today within their relationship . I know Kobe will be with Giannis when he wins the chip in Oct, and I know Giannis will be thinking of him, as well.

I’ve done Athens, New Delhi India, Venice Italy, Seoul South Korea, and Lisbon Portugal. We order food from the country and take a virtual tour. There are a ton of different types of experiences.

If someone does one on downtown Milwaukee and the Bucks I’ll sign up. Maybe show off the Mecca, Fiserv, where Barkley through that dude through the window, Major Goolsbys, etc.

All i want to see these next 8 games is Giannis practicing his post skills (footwork, decision making, passing, baby hook, and his short range fade away). If he can do these things proficiently in the playoffs, we win.

It would also be very helpful to make FT's at decent rate. Not spectacular, just decent.
