Who the fuck let you off your leash?

 

[Jordan23]

Yes, he is.

Lol, nobody on earth considers Giannis a top 10 player ever yet. He’s not Jordan but he may get close to top 5 when he’s done

 

[DJ]

Giannis at C and AD at PF?

Y

Giannis isn't a top 10 player?

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Giannis isn't a top 10 player?

I think he meant all time

Actually, quite a few people on here consider hin one.

It's currently.....not all time.

Like I said, alltime. He’s top 2 or 3 currently

 

[handicappers]

He's not top 10 all time so y'all need to let that go right this minute.

 

[msgkings322]

He's not top 10 all time so y'all need to let that go right this minute.

Not now of course. But if anyone playing today has the potential to be it's him.

 

[handicappers]

Not now of course. But if anyone playing today has the potential to be it's him.

you don't think he'll wash out after a few more years? I'm pretty sure he'll get injured soon.

Pretty sure? On what basis?

 

[tlance]

Not now of course. But if anyone playing today has the potential to be it's him.

He could possibly have 2 MVPs and a ring by the end of the season. And at age 25 that already puts him in pretty elite company.

certainly can’t put him there yet, but I would bet he will get there in time. And perhaps not a whole lot more.

Giannis has top 5 all time potential.

The Lakers can only dream about acquiring Giannis.

Yeah... the difference in morals and ethics which separates the two sides is light years distant for a Lakers fan (or a fan of a "basketball circus" if you prefer) to understand.

"morals and ethics"...

your stupidity gets funnier every day...

 

[buckalis]

"morals and ethics"...

your stupidity gets funnier every day...

Obviously what a circus fan would do, is to laugh against what true he can't understand...

Partly the reason why you can never have Giannis to wear a uniform with the badge of your circus on it.

 

[buckalis]

Giannis at C and AD at PF?

Y

Actually it's a by far more probable case that AD walks from the Lakers, than Giannis joining your circus...

 

[Wamu]

No offe

no offense but he’s not in any conversation near the top or close to it

You ain't kidding. I was making fun of buckalis when I said that.

There are 2 ways to interpret the Kobe idol comments.

On the surface, it might look like the comment is good for the Lakers’ chances.

However, he probably also admires the fact that Kobe played his entire career in LA.

Milwaukee fans should not feel like this comment hurts their chances at all.

Neither the comment on "Kobe", nor Giannis mentioning LA has anything to do with his upcoming contract renewal with the Bucks.

Giannis and Kobe were close friends which lead to Giannis spending the summer of 2018 training with Kobe at the camp Kobe has created in LA and been hosted at his house with his family accompanied by Maria (now the mother of Giannis' son).

Giannis clearly mentions LA (not the Lakers) because one of his brothers has a contract with a team there and also mentions Mil because his other brother is with him in the Bucks roster, all in a phrase which expresses his willingness to play and share his career with his brothers "anywhere"...

Neither the Lakers ever signed Kostas, so that they can attract Giannis' interest as many naive conclude in their ignorance.

The Lakers of course know Giannis' willingness to have his brothers in the same team he plays with and they've signed Kostas because they also know that the Bucks would do their best to please Giannis if they can add Kostas in their roster.

OTOH, the Bucks have Bledsoe in their roster, who other than being a close friend to Lebron with who he has often trained with, Lebron has in multiple cases expressed his willingness to add Bledsoe in the roster he plays with (already from when he was with the Cavs) and even has him under contract with "Klatch sports" of which Lebron is a major shareholder.

Therefore the real reason the Lakers have signed Kostas, is so that they can get hold of an asset that the Bucks want and use Kostas in order to get involved in possible negotiations with the Bucks if they decide to part with Bledsoe (which is probable to happen during the following summer or a season later - depending on how this season ends for the Bucks).

I do.
