This is an incredibly flawed and dumb argument.
We can absolutely keep Bogi without going into the tax, and Positional logjam behind three dudes who play three different positions?? Are you kidding me? From the outlet who can't mention Harrison Barnes without adding "he really is a 4 actually" and is constantly pushing the idea that you can never have too many ball handlers?

I get that you gotta pump out content and they don't care about the Kings but christ maybe do a little research before just writing anything

 

oh those are hot

 

That's my President

 

i didn’t mean in a basketball sense. they underrate him as a person.

 

Disagree. LeBron's first stint in Cleveland, especially his first few years in the league before he initially extended with Cleveland, all the media talked about was him leaving for New York. This was also before the social media era so it wasn't as in our face, but it was definitely major story lines.

 

what's a Boscon?

 

those pistons jerseys

 

People were talking about LeBron leaving his second Cleveland stint for LA after like year one lol

i wish i didn’t bring up lebron bc it breaks yalls brain

 

they weren’t talking about it before and after every game for two years lol. nevermind the fact that lebron owned multiple houses in LA and clearly showed he wanted to make movies.

 

Dumb people

 

If we are comparing the media contemplating Giannis leaving versus Lebron, it's Lebron hands down. That was a constant storyline.

 

I mean, they definitely were talking about it weekly, but I’m not saying it’s the same bc LeBron was chronically cryptic whereas Giannis hasn’t hinted at wanting to leave so I get it lol

 

i still don't think the LA houses meant anything. everybody wants to live in LA

 

It generally means nothing lol 90% of NBA players spend their summers here

 

I want to make it clear that most of the Raptors fans who are saying Giannis will come to Toronto are just trolling Bucks fans.

A Siakam/Antetokounmpo combo would win all the Larry OB's tho.

 

Giannis/Bucks will be a lot like Dirk/Mavs where the Bucks try to do right by him almost the whole time

I think it would take a catastrophic fuck up in the front office for Giannis to leave

 

Considering how badly the Mavs fucked up the tail end of Dirk’s prime after the title run this isn’t the most comforting comparison lol. That said Giannis is singularly talented enough to pull something similar

 

“almost the whole time” lol but I agree.

It seems like Giannis might be loyal to a fault (dude still loves him some Jason Kidd) and that'll always play in the Bucks favor

 

Man, Bucks fans really shook about what other people say about their team.

Now settling in for my thread roasting.

 

Nah it’s more just annoyance and frustrating

 

As a Raptors fan who had to deal with a lot of shit talk and disrespect (remember when Kawhi supposedly wasn't gonna play?), I totally understand that sensitivity.

Can't blame Bucks fans for being defensive considering people continuously undermine and underestimate them despite being a first-class organization.

 

Yeah, I get that. It happens all over the place. It's just people trying to fill column inches.

 

Honestly the biggest fuck up of the offseason was the Sixers letting Butler go and signing Harris and Horford but no one wants to write about that
