Harden and AD where chastised for being too demanding whereas KD and Dame was more "meh" and new way of doing business/player empowerment. It can be both. Like if it was anyone but Giannis, I would agree the contract means very little besides a little extra leverage in trade negotiations.
Ok, worst case scenario, that's still huge. A few days ago we thought there was a chance Giannis walks for nothing.
Now, worst case scenario we get a 29 (talking next year) year old Giannis who demands a trade and we get back the largest haul ever for one player. I mean if he forced a trade to OKC, they would pretty much have to give up every pick they have in their large haul of draft picks. Again, that's worst case scenario for the chicken littles/small market haters and I doubt it happens.

Between what you could get for selling off Dame, Giannis, AND Khris, you'd be looking at the greatest rebuilding package of picks/player assets in NBA history. But that's precisely why it isn't gonna happen. No chance Giannis asks out in the next 2-years. It's now a complete non-story.

Hmmm. I'm not sure this person has ever been to LA. A lot of people land on non-load-bearing bodyparts.

There’s some incredible articles about the Giannis extension currently on the RealGM wiretap.
In short, Horst is a genius and runs an incredible operation. And Giannis is an amazing person. There’s an article about Giannis asking multiple superstars for advice in 2020 and they all told him to leave Milwaukee. Giannis thought about it and said no way, I’m staying and we’re winning a championship. And we did. I feel a similar energy this season.

Make a new one about Dame too. We will need it.

Giannis's ppg
2013/14 6.8
2014/15 12.7
2015/16 16.9
2016/17 22.9
2017/18 26.9
2018/19 27.7
2019/20 29.5
2020/21 28.1
2021/22 29.9
2022/23 31.1
2023/24 32.0
if you take 2019/20 out, Giannis has been increasing his scoring average every year.

Thought it would go down a bit with Dame. And it might if Khris is up to 30 MPG. We'll see.

most probable it will be below 30 ppg at the end, it depends also on his FT%

Lol, "the guy isn't clutch even though he won FMVP (with a 50 point close out game)" is a great start to an argument.
It's also kind of weird because disregarding this guys rant.....I don't think Giannis actually feels what he tweeted out (if he actually tweeted it out).....Like guy has a history of caring too much to an unhealthy level (MDj, hyperventilating on the sideline, trying to hard at end of games that are over, etc)

I said it in the post game thread and I will say it again here, this incident is really exposing the people who simply just hated Giannis long before last night.

Mike Ryan is one of the major reasons why I stopped listening to DLB on a regular basis.
