I like Giannis way more than Kawhii. If Lakers can pull a miracle and get Giannis, we have our own version of twin towers and dynasty.

But Giannis absolutely loves Milwakee and has roots. Talks about loyalty. Plus the supermax. Probably a buck for life.

If bucks get embarassed at playoffs again and he doesn't sign the supermax, then maybe...

He'll make up the money signing with us... People are starting to get reminded of how popular Lakers brand is when the team is winning, the only NBA team turning road games into 'home' games

If he can be convinced not to sign the supermax and wait till FA, Bucks get embarrassed in the playoffs, then maybe he'll consider other teams. Right now zero reason for him to move.

Both seem to love being on the best teams in the NBA. That people would argue that AD would leave the Lakers to once again join one of the lottery teams (only 5 teams would have the cap space right now and they are all in the lottery or close to it).

It is interesting that people think that AD would leave. A result of Dwight leaving maybe? Guys don’t just leave the Lakers.

Best player in the world. Wish Durant never tore his achilles. We really missed out on a battle of the longbois.

James Harden offers scathing critique of Giannis Antetokounmpo's game: 'Takes no skill at all'

Quote:
“I wish I could just run, with 7 feet, run and just dunk. Like that takes no skill at all. I’ve got to actually learn how to play basketball and how to have skill, you know? I’ll take that any day.”

He is so relentless....he is looking to dunk on guys literally every play and because he is from Europe he is cool also.

I love him too.....props to the Bucks for putting The Nets down and making me right that the Nets would not win the title this season as I predicted accurately from the start of the season.
