he is shooting 47% on jump shots from 55 attempts, those turn around fadeaway mid range shots have been cash. there is no need for Giannis to shoot 3s at all, if he can keep up this level of mid range shooting and improve his free throw shooting, he will be in the GOAT conversation

I like Giannis the Greek Freak! :)

He’s a monster at both end of the floor playing super hard , zero soft and zero flops!

But he haven’t won a single Ring yet, so let’s not put him in a GOAT Sentence.

Michael Jordan is GOAT, then Tom Brady, then Lebron. One more Brady super bowl or One more Lebron championship will both surpass MJ.

Yes, A championship is a championship, people needs to play both End offense and defense. Don’t blame injuries? Every team has them but So far Bucks and Suns overcame injuries here and there, are the last two team standing.

lmao

He's not even closing games, Khris Middleton and Holiday have been the go-to guy in crunch time and are their go-to creators. Giannis misses free throws and fails to get much done in those moments, regardless of how great he can be during the game.

Terrific athlete, I mean he's a freak athlete obviously which is what carries him most of the time. But skills wise? Limited as fuck, which is why most NBA players aren't giving him props for what he's doing. Guy can put up 40/20 and come closing time he won't be the best go-to option, ever.

For the record, I love Giannis as a person I think he's a genuinely cool guy even if he is cringe sometimes with how hard he tries to be funny lol.

Im on this boat, his athleticism and size will carry him for his career. He doesnt do anything spectacular outside of hard drives to the rim.

For sure, but hey that's what gets it done i wouldn't be mad as a Bucks fan. Sure, he's not the most skilled guy, but he plays really hard and isn't afraid to attack which i respect. At his size with his athleticism that's pretty much all you need, a lot of heart. His lack of basketball IQ and skills can be overcome with that combination of physical and mental toughness.

I'd rather that then someone like Ben Simmons who is ultra skilled and has the physical skill set but is a little bitch who won't attack in the playoffs and becomes mentally weak.
