Another reason why Giannis is one of my favorite people to root for in the NBA.

Him, KD and Kyrie probably give the most thoughtful answers in the league

I really like Kyrie as well. He and Jaylen Brown are the only players I know of who have called attention to the genocide in Gaza.

I think KD puts a lot of time into communication about the game and he’s the most accessible star ever but a lot of it is immature trash. I don’t think his quality of thought is on par with the other two.

Of course Kyrie had the flat earth shit and has Kanye tendencies like KD but I think he and Giannis have more depth to them.
 

Giannis has done everything but he said himself that he let himself down if he didn't win a second ring.

He's 1 chip away from moving up another tier. I think he's now 15-20 but another chip will get him in the 10-15 conversation.

Same with Jokic. I don't give a shit how many MVP's he's won, how efficient he is, how great he passes and that he averaged a triple double as a center.

Every player in the Top 10 all time has won a minimum of 2 chips. If he's really in the upper room of the GOAT's, he'll lead his team to another ring. I think he's in the same 10-15 range as Giannis, closer to 10 but can be discussed around the 7-10 range with another ring.
 




I gotta say, I criticize fans for siding with billionaire white owners over the athletes…

But this has dragged on too long. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t want to see him as the new Delonte West in a few years.
