Why do NBA players DISRESPECT Giannis? 

Kobe praised Giannis. Who's opinion am I gonna believe? A man with 5 championships or a man who had to jump on a Superteam and STILL can't get one. Kobe even said Harden's playstyle wouldn't lead to a chip and my oh my he was right.

Fuck Harden and Lebron being jelly. Giannis and Jokic are the New NBA...they're unselfish and good dudes that are likable.

Kobe is right to show Giannis Greatness even Jokic but will see tho. Jokic kinda maybe he little but met Kobe that much.

@mike Walters ok what about it.

@mike Walters bruh Kobe would be proud Giannis complete success so stfu

It’s crazy because the injury might have actually been a blessing in disguise. Forced him to do a little less on the perimeter and just dominate the inside

😂😂😂

@@youngsatch I think you’re spot on there fr

Better

Do u remember teams having to sign a big Big just to match up with shaq in the playoffs. Come on, don't disrespect shaq like that.

Giannis did it the injured hospital 🏥 way

Giannis was about to leave?!

Yeah they hate him showing them up...they rather spend all day doing self promoting over getting better at basketball... plus Giannis can ball out and win like crazy without Leaching of of a Superteam like Lebron

@Kaden Williams I mean Kyrie ain't LeBron's friend like at all lol

@Kaden Williams naw Kyrie got tired of always bailing LeBron out and never getting any credit but always getting blamed for LeBron's mistake so once he left Cleveland he kept putting LeBron on blast....in fact there's a whole episode in Game Of Zones that makes fun of how much Kyrie isn't cool with him

ON GOD BECAUSE HE HAS TRAINED UNDER HIM LIKE THAT WAS WHAT MADE MAMBA SAW THE GREATNESS IN HIM

Mamba knew the amount of Talent Giannis has!

KD has long been giving Giannis respect. Shaq too

@@Allchickensmustdie OF COURSE KD IS AN EXCPETION

@@Allchickensmustdie Steph as well .He even tried to recruit him 😂😂😂 and also he picked giannis as his first pick during all star

,,, and no (back to back AHAHAHAH) offensive fouls.

@@Antawnyoo huh

And I TOTALLY agree

Before anyone says Zenon wrong. Shaq was terrible defender by MVP standards. Giannis has defense of Hakeem but Scoring of Shaq with Kobe's mentality. Giannis has a shot to enter top 5 all time. Still have MJ > Kareem > LBJ as my top3 though. Just wish someone would tell Giannis to stop shooting 3s and focus on his free throws. If Giannis can get to 70+% FT% (same with LBJ and Hakeem) he's going to win at least 1 more ring.

@@vanguardas9927 To be fair to Shaq, Shaq was a rim protector not really a step out the paint kinda guy. Which why his pick n roll defense was trash but most big men are mostly rim protectors anyway.

People are so dumb to correlate skills with dribble moves and step backs and all the "pretty moves". All while also ignoring all the true skill that goes into playing elite level defense.

@@iPrank911 and How many 6'11 dudes have the footwork, body control and passing ability that he does

Giannis hospital ring doesn’t count. He had to injury kyrie cause he knew bucks wasn’t good enough to win. Bucks are frauds asterisk ring isn’t valuable 💍🏥💍🏥💍🏥💍🏥

@@cwebed-stuy9951 Lol Sure. Keep telling yourself that.

@@rini214 exactly, there are plenty of big athletic players, none like Giannis.

Steph?

kawhi as well

@@RayleighSilvers he just lightskin

@@nirdeep07 bang you called it.

Agree

thats true cuz kobe even said himself he didnt work out go to practice or work on his game. imagine if shaq actually did!?

Facts

Yeah his ring will get so much more respect than say KD's two rings combined.

Hes a lot like Hakeem. Even Hakeem got ignored back then while David Robinson was praised all day.

Name all the foreign players who didn't get outward respect

@@robertdavischaniago917 understandable. MJ was in his prime thats why. Any other player?

plus he's a lot more humble compared to other star players. Giannis actually used to sell some watches behind the stool in the street in Greece. When Giannis came into the league he looked so quiet in front of cameras, especially compared that to LeBron who's a diva in front of cameras

Bcoz d wade,melo,bron and cp3 are close friends coming into the league,it's been 17 years or something since they all are in the same league,so that's just brotherly love

Gobert was

CP3 is Lebron's son godfather, who do you think he will support?

@@renjithraju7124 it's more than that, Giannis said their little boys club is stupid and will never join the dark side with them lol

@@jeremyswann2228 so making friends is the "dark side" 😂

No it doesn’t all the injuries and he faced the worst team in western conference in the playoffs

@@Ma1q444 uh yes it does. All of you people talk about injurie and we bucks can play injurie card too you know

@@Ma1q444 injuries are part of the game 🤷🏽‍♂️ lots of should’ve and could’ve

@@Ma1q444 giannis had a hyper extended knee and he stilled rocked their shit

@@cantwinnogamepr4513 + Donte was out the entire playoffs, that's 20% of the starting lineup

Exactly

Amen

So that says alot because Kobe was the only one to give Giannis his props

@@alexgsr1ify well Kobe was close to retirement by the time Giannis came into the league. His legacy was already set and he was really embracing being a mentor. He may have reacted differently in his younger days but with age comes wisdom.

People respect luka so tf u on about

True he actually won his first championship at 28 years of age. So if giannis can last as long as Jordan then expect another ring or so.

@@benserkowski4663, he also got his first MVP at the age of 25-26. So similar age to Giannis.

I never hear anyone mention Giannis came late to the game. He was a teenager when be started playing. He wasn't brought up in a basketball culture. No HS summer training camps or special coaching to create and cultivate NBA stars... No Oak Hill or national tournaments or HS rankings... He shared shoes with his brother and slept in the gym. He came to the NBA with just raw talent and potential. He's been working and learning on a curve. When you factor that in, what he's done is nothing short of miraculous. It's a movie script. You can't make this stuff up. No one would believe you.

He has goat potential and can be at the level of Mj as the greatest ever

@@Panazoniac fr harden just mad mad

Facts

Same ASF

This made me hate Giannis even more.

faaaaax!

@@Tech-cy9yo i think you just hate immigrants friend

@Jaime Alvarez One of the most loved basketball players of all time is Dirk Nowitzki. Ginobli, Yao and Pau are highly appreciated foreign players too. To say we can't consider him the face of the NBA because he's foreign is wrong.

He NEVER faced xenophobia in Greece.He said that in many interviews! Don't say ΜΑΛΑΚΙΕΣ

@@backtobasicsomega yes but they did not come to the top everyone's praise and attention,leaving behing all other players

@Jaime Alvarez yes he’s Greek but he isn’t of European descent. To be, he would have European ancestors. Do you even know what that means?

@@ManitoRakos well he faced racism. He just doesn’t lo talk about it. Here’s the link to what his biographer said at 13:15 about his experience. There’s even a street painting of his face scratched out with a swastica drawn on his shoulder. Do not try to dismiss something that he experienced growing up in Greece. Though it wasn’t everyone that was racist, the fact is, he did experience racism. There are racists all over America as well as Europe and Greece isn’t excluded. Here’s link to another video by this channel. - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--Y-BpPhJHuE.html

But his game is brutal. Brutal for the opponent players xD

@Veron Frederick Because he plays fancy. "Skills" in nba is playing fancy lmao

Who tf cares if he’s American or not? Did you guys just make up that narrative or do you actually have proof?

I think dunking all the time is pretty and flashy....but they make it seem like its a free throw or something...If you make a video with all of his dunks it may long about an hour....!!!

1 reason only he is an AFRICAN MAN, and they got beef from 400 years ago!

Both from the Balkans, both very unique players, both play in small markets, both MVPs, etc. Truly a lot of similarities. They don’t care about popularity and that’s a huge sign of how confident they are.

Luka and jokic will end up on the same team eventually

Jokic is actually likable though lmfaoo maybe it's just me but gianis rubs me the wrong way

@@isaacdagoat2169 a couple of Giannis statements seem a little bit disingenuous. I like him, but I feel like Jokic has always got too much hate

@@isaacdagoat2169 it’s just you pal

Lol funny thing is, they would have been great teammates if harden got traded there. Harden can stretch the floor and run the offense, while Giannis can dominate the paint going 1v1 against anyone down low if they double on harden

Your hilarious

@@MrE_ harden been real quiet ever since they won

Hahahhahaha

Hahaha

By winning a ring because injuries

@@Ma1q444 you mean your heart injured, ya we all could tolarate

@@Ma1q444 ah yes let me injured myself so we have a reason why we lost

@@Ma1q444 Your Mind is injured ;)

He likes their game but wont work out with them and will compete against them .

True. Especially not from players who can’t stand on their own two feet. Can’t stand these people who says Giannis only won because of the injuries of other teams. Not his fault that Harden doesn’t take care of his body, going to strip clubs and getting drunk all the time. AD and Kyrie’s injuries? That’s on them and the teams that chose them knowing they are injury prone. It’s a good thing they don’t award championships to WHAT IFS.

Yeah Giannis deserved to win this year! I like his attitude.. he doesn’t seem as egotistical and / or as sensitive as other NBA players.. just does his thing.. by the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel just might change someone’s life!

Lmao

so true...!

yep.

Giannis one of my favorite players but what do lebron have to do with Giannis?

@Arnell Smith - Did not have to ring chase! Maybe try reading again, this time a bit more slowly.

Rasheed Wallace was a way better offensive player than Tim Duncan. Duncan was the more rounded player though.

@@edwinwilliams986 wrong. Duncan way better on offense than Rasheed. Game 7 nba finals 05 is all I gotta say.

@@edwinwilliams986 hell no

people still forgot to mentions him as one of the greatests. people slept on him so hard.

@@crist3809 fr his resume is fucking crazy abd ppl often ignore him cuz hes not flashy and he was reserved

@@andrewwood763 Harden's listed at 6'5", actually taller than an average NBA guard, plus he has solid build weighing almost as much as an average PF. basically even by NBA standards he's no little guy

😂 😂 😂 😂

He talked like he was Allen Iverson or Isaiah Thomas

What are these comments?

FACTS !!!!

Thats genius

That and the most of them are old and washed while giannis is 26, already has a ring and is better than most of them

They better get used to it because we still have Doncic and Jokic otw to become future nba champs. Face it, international basketball is catching up to the nba's if not better.

Not really, I haven't seen anyone hating on Luka

@@ivandreuxzuev9473 he hasn't won anything yet

@@afanofall3131 Which is what the late David Stern wanted, to have the NBA on the International stage. With Lebron and Durant retiring in the future, the conversation for MVP will be filled with International players. Every Sports network might as well start accepting this as reality.

Calm down Tim Duncan is not a pushover. Giannis will need a lot of sucess to challenge him!

Nah but maybe top 3

@@leomorckleckne6392 nah maybe first

Idk abt Shaqs athleticism I’d more say his dominance but he doesn’t rlly play bully ball bc he’s fast enough to beat guys

If he keeps playing like that he will finish his career in the goat debate

His nationality has nothing to do with this, it’s just the way he won and how he plays, people celebrating this but fail to remember that if Kd foot wasn’t on the line Giannas would be home, besides he didn’t play a healthy nets teams. The bucks are frauds.

Point on... Gianni's is a wrecking freak and nobody can't stop him barring injury..he can pace himself now and give some responsibilities to Kris and other's,then playoff time that's the time to wreck havoc...he knows the formula of winning and it will be hard for them this time,but they can do it....

They seemed to stop this same superstarkiller last year.

@@curtishancock432 Eh, Jordan was getting Bounced too. All the All Time Greats had disappointments before they figured it out. No Great Player never had disappointments. Giannis is only 26 and will be in his Prime for another 7 Years at Least!

A few others did too but the rest is fucken weak even Lebron and I love Lebron

steph curry as well

@@princesslightning5447 lebron literally always has high praise for giannis. He literally defended Giannis on a show after someone said he has no skill. So Stfu

@@ev3638 you stfu you don’t gotta an ignorant person

@@ev3638 Show me that show, I would Love to see that!

So he didn't grind up and carry a horrid team in the cavs,

@@itsmezach8307 he couldn't win with them, later sure with Kevin love and Kyrie, but he never won a chip the way giannis has

@@Spirosbotosdidn't giannis have circumstances in place to win his chip? And before lebron came back the cavs were good not forgetting they went against the greatest team 3 times in a row and cane 3-1 with lebron leading the charge

This is so stupid.....why are u comparing their struggle. Do u not know what lebron went through as a kid. He was literally poor and from the hood. It's just he had a lot of talent. Ur so weird

@@ev3638 while I di agree that lebron didn't have it as easy as it's said in the comment I still beleive that giannis had it harder due to constant racism, moving apaents or living on the streets, and having to work from such a young age

Right like then why doesn’t every 7 footer do that?? And he’s not even 7 feet he’s shorter for sure

@@dacrosber Yeah and it also makes me annoyed when someone hates on giannis haha. Idk why, maybe cuz I like him the most out of anybody right now

😂😂 sure bud

Behind Lebron and maybe KD. Besides that though. Ur right.

@@davidwinston8122 Well in my opinion hes Definitely gonna be better than Lebron because hes already better than Lebron was at his age plus hes a better defender han KD even tho KD is a better scorer

Let's give him some time first! Everyone ready to crown him after one ring! What if this is his only ring? No one will be talking about him in 10 years.

Still won a ring. There greats that don’t have a ring.

@@curtishancock432 Well, even if this is His Only Ring, his Accolades alone have placed him so High on the All Time List Already...Top 30 For Sure, that People will still be talking about him. But he is only 26 and Barring any Bad injuries, I can bet that he will add to his list of Accolades. People forget that Bron & KD are gonna be gone soon, Giannis will still be in his Prime.

@@micahellington8038 Nah, he will most likely be in another Finals, he's so Young and even worse case scenario, Bron & KD gonna be out soon...Giannis will still be in his Prime.

Yep!

How did you come up with that narrative?

So what about Luka? Who’s not American

@@longlivetheblackmamba2-8-24 let em talk

In general, most Americans love to talk down people from great nations, like Greece.

No one is talking down on Luka

@@asmith4549 lol they’re not doing it directly, but ain’t none of them are ready to admit how great Luka actually already is. Luka was by far the best player in that first round series against the Clippers, but you don’t see anyone mentioning that on the media. If it was a guy like Lebron or Curry doing that while still losing, it would’ve been praised all over the news

@@khoile1739 This video is such narrative pushing. This is why a lot of people get so fed up with the nba because it’s constant narratives like everyone is jealous of Giannis. There’s way too much drama and bullshit from the media and even YT creators as well

I know right 😂😂😂😂😂 they really trying to throw his name in there like he really hates Giannas like he really didn’t just congratulate him

Yeah to my knowledge I didn’t see Bron say anything but we never know

LeBron chose Giannis to be on his All Star team for one reason and one reason only and it wasn't for respect or friendship. LeBron chose Giannis because he can play the game and because he is dangerous in and around the paint. It just served LeBrons interest to have Giannis on his team rather than being embarrassed by what he could do against him.
