Is Jrue Holiday the MOST UNDER-APPRECIATED star in the NBA? Greeny’s AMAZING RESPONSE 💪 | Get Up 

Since his 76er days, Jrue has been one of the most complete players I’ve ever seen. A real all-around point guard.

Stephen A didn’t even list him as a champion when he said Kyrie was the only starter with a ring

When jrue went to the Celtics i instantly knew two things. 1, Boston was winning the chip 2, bucks weren’t winning another championship.

Giannis used to be humble. After that 2021 Finals, he began to believe the hype. He thought he carried them on his back for a title. Then he thought he needed a better coach and a better wing man (Dame) to get back. Now he’s got a streaky shooter and an overrated coach who only has 1 ring because he had the first 3 Person Super Team (08 Boston). Jrue Holiday is so underrated. He is the key to the Bucks winning the ring in 21.

Brad Stevens made sure to get him his extension before the playoffs... smart move

Jrue Holiday is under-appreciated; especially when you compare him to his peers... Jrue Holiday vs Damian Lillard Championship Rings: 1 vs 0 Finals Appearances: 2 vs 0 Playoff Head-to-Head: 4 vs 0 All-Star Appearances: 2 vs 8 All-Defense Selections: 6 vs 0 Top-75 Selections: 0 vs 1 We'd find a similar setup when comparing Jrue to: (a) Russell Westbrook; (b) James Harden; and (c) several other combo-guards

Jrue is just a winner its that simple.

Jrue has always effected winning. Even on the Pelicans, he was locking people up. I knew when the Celtics got him for nothing the league was in trouble.

He's a defensive wizard.

Holiday is not underappreciated cuz he won the teammate of the year award many times ... either him or it was conley lol

He's the perfect player. Does everything on the court well, a leader in the locker room, has no ego. Man, what a great fit for this team.

Uncle Drew can't handle Uncle Jrue!

Just remember, he was on SIXERS, then was traded away to start 'The Process'

I love how the narrative for weeks was the "full strength Celtics had an easy path playing teams with injured stars" and Porzingas's absence was hand-waived as no big deal. Now it's "OMG! Losing Porzingas could be the Celtics' downfall!!". SMDH.

Happy birthday 🤙🏽. Definitely with the right team his full potential shines

I just love Jrue Holiday, so composed and team oriented. Pure class

Drue has always been under appreciated. He is an all star who never gets picked. But plays his role as he should and top defender.

Milwaukee needed him. If Boston wins, Jrue is what they needed, too. Great player.

Can't be under appreciated when everyone constantly appreciates him

Love Jrue absolutely! A player every coach would love to have on their teams. Jrue is Jimmy butler type of player with no dramas🎉. All sports need more players like him.

Is it just me or does Greeny's monologue about Jrue to start the video remind you of 'The Jump' hosted by Rachel Nichols? I was a big fan of that show.

I always wonder why NBA teams (there are multiple by the way) favor a PG who dribble the ball for 18 seconds every possession, chucks up 30 shots a game, and plays lazy defense rather than a PG who is a facilitator and plays defense. Jrue deserves his flowers

He is very underrated. Bucks still messed up not keeping him.

thank you!!!! If Holiday continues to perform as is, it would be completely idiotic to give mvp to anyone else. He impacts the game soooo very much and i'm glad at least some networks are recognizing him!!!!!

Stop popping on the P&R Derrick Jones Jr and cut / roll to the basket so the offence isn’t stagnant, way better looks

Meanwhile Monica McNutt is still missing..

If you can have a role player at each position AND a jack of all trades (like Holiday) THAT’S what makes a team unstoppable.

D White is more slept on

What a ferocious defender! What a handle and nose for the rim in the paint. I think of him as a well sharpened Swiss Army Knife. You want something done when other guys are having a bad night? Jrue Da Man. He is the ultimate team player. Seems like the Cs have a few of those.

He reminds me of Dennis Johnson

Greeny is a G for this take. Jrue is top tier, been saying it for a long time.

Jrue bout to pull an Iggy and get that FinalsMVP

At One Point , about 5 years ago. Jrue was My Fav Player... He's matured since his Philly days

CJ looks like he agrees which proves the point

He’s not great or flashy at anything but he’s good at everything so that’s what makes him great. Whatever the team needs at that moment, he can provide it

And he is a humble and nice guy.

I think he is the most underrated champion.

Jrue is Solid AF! He is a Christian with the strength from above.

I said it last night, Jrue was my MVP. Jrue controlled that game from start to finish playing both ends of the floor...his patience and iq is on point.

Thank you Milwaukee!!! They gave him away to Portland, and the Celtics got him for nothing. Dynasty in the making!

Jrue has been solid everywhere, even carried the Pelicans when they had injuries.

In my eyes he's has been a star for some time now and was my favorite player on Bucks. He reminds me of a smaller Igudala in every regard, and in this series he is playing the same role and having the same results as Igudala did when he won finals MVP guarding Lebron. When he got traded from the Bucks I said now the Bucks went from having 5 great defenders starting (no holes) and now they have a huge hole on defense in their starting 5. Iso on both sides of the ball is addition/subtraction, but team strategy is multiplication/division, so the Bucks were tripping and the Celtics were smart as heck...

Im glad this is just an appreciation segment. I also left a bunch of comments on youtube and i may have tweeted that drew was a bigger loss, than the gain of damian lillard for the bucks. Their defensive fall, outweighs their offensive gains.

I always saw it as jrue was the guy that never had his face on the busses or posters or the headline in the tnt commercials, but behind closed doors hes the guy the other team is game planning around becuade he has that much impact

Holiday Is the real uncle jrue!

He's underappreciated. Remember last year when Inside the NBA didn't have a highlight reel for him when he made the all star.

I still can’t believe the Bucks traded Jru for Expired Dame Time!

Happy birthday Jrue!!! I was sad when we let Smart leave. But I was also really happy when I heard we got you too!!!! You locked down one of my fav player Dame Dollar in your years against him. I knew you would be a beast for us from the get go. I wanna thank the whole Celtic's staff/manager/owner etc. for getting Holiday. Such a brillant move👏👏👏

Competes on both sides of the ball can give you 20 or defend the other teams best player. Doesn’t complain when he doesn’t get his shots. He will figure a way to contribute to the game. Great player!

Ppl forgot dame got locked up by holiday. 😂

It's a crime that they didn't ask CJ to speak about specifically the Pelicans vs Blazers serious when Jrue and Rondo locked up CJ and Dame 😂😂😂😂

Id like to see the nba change the DPOY to 3 position categories because there not equal due to type of def you play Pf/c Sh/sf Pg Making 3 DPOY With a big thing being your coaches Put in whats your primary position on the team so you can rank in either one category with pg being singled out since its the toughest position to guard even among guarding role players .

Been a Jrue fan and have thought he's a top 5 guard in the league for 11 years. What's sad is that Harden and Westbrook will make the HOF and Jrue won't , but he is a much more impactful player for winning than they are.

A star that gets no criticism and gets to play with no pressure

Who didn't know porzingas was gonna get injured it'd the most physical time of the year😂

HE IS A ALLSTAR AND ALLWAYS HAS BEEN.

❤‍🔥❤‍🔥JRUE HOLIDAY SEASON❤‍🔥❤‍🔥 I love this segment!

I am happy Boston has him

He just called CJ TJ McConnell 😭😭

Wherever he's played he's been vital

Please leave Jrue out of mainstream BS and let him ball quietly like he prefers.

Hes a star not everyone has to be a superstar. And I consider him a utility player - baseball doesnt have that title locked down. He can do many things really well.

I like Holiday, but why is there no love for Jalen brown, again?

Jrue been a key piece on any team he is on. The bucks got that ring becasue of him. A true PG.. like Rondo

He makes $35 mil a year. It’s clear the nba doesn’t underrate him

He’s the one guy in 2k who never failed to get me a bucket

Comparing his 25 PPG and 10 RPG with 75% shooting to historic GUARDS is weird. Comparing these stats to historic BIGS/CENTERS makes them look crazy efficient!

Even though I can't be any happier for Holiday, what I don't like is celebrating too early. This might get in Celtic's heads.

Keep in mind, he’s the only member of the team with a ring

Jrue to me is a third tier all star or star. Good enough to make maybe 1-3 all star appeeances but in particular to his game all nba def team member

Love the ESPN line up today.

The moment the Bucks traded Holiday I figured they were done with rings. They would not have won the first one without him

Hopefully now that the Lebron era is ending the media can remember what really matters in basketball which is TEAM DEFENSE

It’s mad to think jrue holiday was going to retire years ago and it’s like his career been better since then

Bucks coped all year warning about “playoff Jrue”. Well he’s here and he’s incredible. Finals MVP

How deep does a team have to be to have Jrue Holiday be what many consider the fourth best player on a team?

Said it since day 1 bucks would regret trading him he wasn't the problem he's a more impactful player than Dame Jrue never fails to show up in the playoffs

the players have said he is the best defensive player in the league but has never won DPOY he is way better than smart

His a fantastic player Great take

Trae young was averaging 34 and 9 before he got injured in the 2021 ecf and holiday season as guarding him 64% of the time. This means Trae young the best player in the nba

seems like every other game they pull out some combination of stats , position to say this is a first🙄

This is funny. Because most people, especially media had Mavericks winning. And everybody said the East is weak. Even though Celtics were the best team in the NBA. Record and statistically. For some reason media wants to hate on Tatum. I think this is just to make sure he doesn't win Finals MVP. Even though he's not scoring and isn't shooting well he's doing everything else. He's being a playmaker and playing great defense. And being a leader.

05:00 Other than you Greeny, I have not heard anyone calling him a role player 😂

Under Appreciated by who? the media? Anyone who follows basketball knew how great Holiday was. Just because the Media chooses to not praise him doesnt make him under appreciated. Maybe one less topic about Lebron james per day and we could cover guys like Jrue.

He Is just as important as Tatum and Brown

Did we forget how he got punked by jimmy butler?

People forgot he was one of the biggest reasons the Bucks won their championship... this dude has been solid all throughout his career.

He has been the reason we are in the finals period

After game 3 all these stats will be altered. Ky is about to drop a 30 piece on him game 3 🎉

Jrue one my favorite players OAT will and should def win Finals MVP

Jrue has always been a star who plays his role.

Hoopers knew the celtics stole one in the holiday trade

Holiday and conely been saying it for years, especially with conely I've said it since the memphis days.

I'm not worry about JT a real superstar is on the road he will show up trust mi

CJ and Dame for sure know better than anyone. They remember that NOLA series where Jrue and Rondo completely clamped them. Made them look like they didn’t even deserve to be in the NBA. Let’s be real: it’s only the MEDIA who has continuously downplayed Jrue, and it’s because none of them actually know basketball. Almost every elite star in the league, from KD, Bron, and PG down to shorter guards like Steph, have said for YEARS that Jrue is easily the best defender in the league…and that he should literally win DPOY every season

that is because Jrue is not a playmaker someone is doing a good job pasing the ball to Holiday

Milwaukee let go of the wrong guy. Middleton was/is the issue. Pairing dame w/ Greek and jrue wouldve been a better option.

Not to me.. when the moves were made in the off season I told everybody that jrue to Boston was bigger than Dame to the bucks

I understand their point but I don't consider him underrated or underappreciated. I think anyone who is more than a casual basketball fan knows what Jrue brings to the table. Not to mention his $135M contract.

Everyday is a holiday with Holiday
