    I am probably one of the very rare people who does not want Giannis. I think he's a great player, I just don't think he fits on the Spurs. He is an athleticism based player, and he is in his 30's. I don't see his dominance lasting more than 2 or 3 more years.
    FFS Steffi Curry is 35, altho with all the ref pampering he gets perhaps not an equal comparison.

    We should do a thread on How NBA Players are doing into their 30s.

    Not sure if you noticed but Giannis and curry have very different games.

    Of course I thought Lebrons game would totally fall off because a huge part of his advantage was his athleticism. But here he is closing in on 40 and still going strong.

    The Bucks just signed Giannis’ brother Alex. There are three Antetokoumpo playing for the Bucks now, and there are two more brothers left . That’s crazy nepotism on Giannis part. He can’t seriously expect the team to be more compe ive if he rather get his brothers jobs in the NBA, instead of getting solid role players to fill those slots. Hiring relatives is the worst business practice period.

    Funny how many times a leak from some agent or exec says that SA is one team that [fill in blank Super Star name here] is considering. Somehow free agent super stars never arrive despite all that "considering"

    ^ So nice to see one of the stars being a real nigggga about it vs their usual sugary b.s. schpeel about how they "want to be a ____ forever."

    Greek Freak such a good contrast to the mul ude of modern NBA gots, ie Harden, Durbetta, Flat Earther, Apemond (media *star), etc.

    Giannis constantly dropping F bombs all of a sudden is is kinda cringey. Not trying to clutch my pearls or anything but idk I don't feel it is appropriate for professional interviews

    cant really wrap my head around earning over a quarter billion dollars in a 7 year window and deciding not to extend your contract now because it would only make you eligible for another 190 mil over the course of 3 years

    It's not any cooler in 2023 that it ever was. It's possible to say the same thing without addng a " ing" every other word on camera.

    For fuke sake.

    i know. im not even necessarily saying it in the context of sports.

    the mindset of having an ungodly amount of money that you will basically never be able to spend and turning down an ungodly sum of money because maybe you could squeeze more if you wait a year

    At that point I'd be thinking about the next several generations I'd be passing it onto. Also, remember that Giannis came from greece during a period where their economy was literally the worst in the world.

    There are no franchise players hitting free agency anymore. You gotta trade for them
