And he made the jump to a truly elite playmaker. Before he was merely good, but at this point, he's up at the very top of the league. Its just so hard to win another MVP when your last MVP was quite literally arguably the greatest of all time if you played a full season.
@@WestCoastCheeseHeadjrue wasn’t a good fit on the bucks anymore, they needed more scoring and his scoring isn’t consistent enough to be a #2 or #3 scoring option. He fits better in Boston because he’s basically a 6th option on offense.

It’s because we haven’t seen a fully healthy Bucks team in the playoffs since 2021. Giannis missed games in both the Heat 2023 and Pacers 2024 series that they lost. And last time he was healthy, he lost a 7 game series without Middleton against Boston in 2022. Giannis is definitely still amazing and more underrated now. People shouldn’t be counting out a healthy Bucks team so quickly. And I say all this as a Celtics fan.
The Giannis carry job vs BOS in ‘22 is so underrated. 34/15/7 vs the #1 defense & Jrue was the second leading scorer with 17 PPG on 35% FG (!!!). Wish they had at least finished the job then, regardless if they lost to Miami after
Agree, most people only care about the playoffs and kind of rightfully so, so it makes sense that Giannis' stock has dropped so much since he's missed so much time. A more extreme case would be PG and especially kawhi. Even a great full series in a loss could help people acknowledge him again.

Things Giannis has accomplished. A championship, named to top 75 players all time, Bucks all time leading Scorer, 2x mvp, 1 defensive player of the year, most improved player and finals mvp. Hes already a HOF.
Its up there for me I do like motown noah the random spirals are entertaining Alvini linguini i think it is does some really solid long form stuff And funkydiabetic has some good stuff too But synthetic sports is consistently putting out bangers with high prod value
I think funkydiabetic is better on the more analytical side of things, but his production is awful (which is part of the charm with him) and I’ll always be a big Kenny Beachum fan but synthetic sports has become my favorite recently
One thing to say about the Adriain Griffin firing. Not advocating for his firing at all here and it is still crazy that they fired him 43 games into his head coaching career when they were doing relatively fine. But there is a lot of revisionist history with that record. Everyone was complaining about griffin's bad schemes and failure to win the locker room during the first half of the season. When the bucks defense plummeted everyone was complaining about how griffin was using lopez and giannis. In reality they won a lot of games based on the sheer talent of giannis and dame etc. still doesn't explaining how they fired him when the team was the 2 seed 48 games into his career but just want to point out that it was a very rocky start to a head coaching job
@@pashanamir6151 so true, I still think they should have road it out. But if the players ain’t feeling him, it wasn’t bound to change. I just find it weird how it got to that point if Giannis did approve of him, unless it was just a yes I agree with the organizations choice
@@brianngure151No, Giannis didn’t approve of him either. There’s compilations out of him publicly being against him. Clips where he says “make a damn play,” “put me back in the game,” “I’m done with this,” and other things like that while he’s walking away from the bench mad.
@@brianngure151anyone who was watching the team could see that they had no chance of making a finals run with him as their coach because their defense was so horrendous. They were similar to the pacers but the difference was that their players are much older and injury prone so if they were gonna win a title it couldn’t have been with a team like that. The pacers only even got so far because of massive injuries, that bucks team wasn’t going anywhere under griffin.
I still don’t understand why the Bucks fired Budenholzer, who mind you, bought them a CHAMPIONSHIP, and only lost in the 2023 Playoffs because of both Giannis being injured as well as the fact that Mike was grieving the death of his brother.
Cause in the NBA, and really sports as a whole, anytime there’s an issue people seem to immediately point to the coach, I don’t know why but that seems to be the case. Look at coaching turnovers just the last few seasons
As a Bucks fan who watched them go down in flames in 2023, Bud absolutely deserved to get fired. I truly give my condolences to his family, but that doesn't excuse the basic mistakes he was making. Haven't watched the series since it actually happened, so some of my statements might be a little off, but they are all genuine and its only the games that I might get wrong. In game 4 or 5, the Bucks were leading by double digits coming down the stretch in the 4th, and then the Heat started to go on a run, and Bud ONLY called a timeout after Butler got a fast break dunk and took the lead. He continued to refuse to make adjustments for who was defending Butler who was torching Holiday. Jrue was just too small and too tired to guard Jimmy, and when Giannis came back especially, he shouldn't have been the main defender on him. He continued to let Jrue take way too many shots as he burned down our offense. Most people don't realize that Middleton played the best basketball of his season in the series, but instead of making him the focal point, Jrue was getting the same amount of shots as Middleton. Keep in mind, Lopez also tied (or passed, can't remember) his career high in playoff single game scoring this series, but wasn't used nearly as much as he should have offensively when Giannis was out. Speaking of Bud failing to use Lopez, remember when Lopez was NOT in the game and it allowed Butler to force OT? He just absolutely failed to call timeouts in crucial moments. Two stand out, and they were both in game 5 iirc. The first was when Butler hit that insane lob to force OT. There was still 2-3 seconds left on the clock and Milwaukee had a time out, but Bud just let Milwaukee dribble out the clock instead of actually getting a play constructed. Then, in OT, the Heat go up (can't even remember how it happened) and instead of calling a TO, he just lets the Bucks go and it results in GRAYSON ALLEN getting the ball and DRIVING INSIDE, passing on an open mid range shot, to do some stupid eurostep that he misses AFTER the shot clock already expired. What an absolute circus that Bud was largely responsible for. Holiday sucked too, and Giannis failed at the FT line and handling the ball, but at the end of the day, Bud and Jrue's failures were the biggest issues and that's why they got chopped. And also, keep in mind the idea of Bud not making adjustments was around long before this and if they didn't win in 2021, he was gone. Jrue also never had a good offensive post season in Milwaukee, even in 2021.
Buds brother died before game 4, honestly too idk what buds could've done with a bunch of old and bad perimeter defenders and the Miami Heat having THE greatest shooting series ever.

@@ch.illmaticDude above you listed all of the reasons why he was fired. I understand all of what you said, but that does not erase the bad decisions he made that led to them losing that series.
It’s insane that Giannis doesn’t have 3 mvps one two he’s still the best in the league the media just acts like injuries don’t happen with Giannis but they will still argue Kawhi and embiid top 5 when they have never been healthy it’s wild that Giannis is the only player they don’t talk about injuries
He could def still easilly take the best player title..bro is still arguably the most dominant player right now, its just a matter of if his team could perform
STOP THE CAP! THE DUDE HAS ONLY 1 RING! HE HAD A FLUKE CHAMPIONSHIP RUN! EVERYBODY'S TALKING ABOUT HOW DOMINANT HE WAS LIKE SHAQ AND WILT, AND YET CAN'T EVEN DOMINATE IN TODAY'S ERA. HE CAN'T EVEN WIN WITHOUT JRUE! GO WATCH REAL BASKETBALL!

Giannis is at worst the third best player in the league, but in the playoffs his game just doesn't feel as dominant. Teams like the Heat, the Celtics or Toronto in 2019 limited his production by just putting bodies between him and the basket and forcing him to take outside shots and free throws. I think he needs to improve his post game and maybe start playing the 5 more like AD to reach the top again.
Have you guys ever considered uploading the audio from these talks to Spotify? I really enjoy your commentary, & I'd love to listen to you on my morning commutes in my car!
I've been a bucks fan since 2017 giannis made me a bucks fan he's become so disrespected since hes been injured imo hes still the best or 2nd best player in the nba when healthy its him and jokic if he didnt get hurt him or khris when might have a 2nd ring in 2022 and maybe another in 23 or 24 him and dame gonna prove all the doubters wrong next season 😈

@lowkey4545 I didn't even mention rings or dominance, Luka, SGA nor Embiid have any rings, I'm just talking stats and skills, averaging 30+ ppg 10+ rebounds, multiple blocks a game is definitely top 5. (Shaq needed Kobe and D Wade to win any championships, not to even mention Penny or his ring chasing.) (Wilt was a selfish player most of the time who was dominated by Bill Russell and he absolutely needed Hal Greer to win with the 76ers, and Jerry West and Elgin Baylor to win as a superteam on the Lakers. (Also, the "dominance like shaq/wilt" is really just playstyle and physicality not one to one copy
Anybody who pays close attention to the game knows Giannis is still that guy hopefully the Bucks can stay healthy because that’s the reason for they downfall the past few seasons and Giannis could have won MVP last season so he might just be out for vengeance this season but knowing the NBA all it takes is for a new player to have a breakout season to get MVP Jokic got lucky that it didn’t go to SGA.
It is Ironic that the bucks only made it to the 2021 championship thanks to their opponents stars getting injured and since then the only thing preventing them from reaching another championship round has been consistent injuries to their star players in the post season. I am not saying it’s Karma or something like that as I think they have been contenders especially in 2022 and 2023, it just goes to show you how much has to go right for team to make it to the mountain top let alone do it again.
Its really simple.. Giannis is underrated because hes rating is depending on team success...and since he won the chip he hasnt had a healthy team.. The dude went through 3 different coaches..strategies last season and still put up top 3 numbers.. Hes been injured in the last 2 playoffs.. And before that Middleton was injured. So..the team.has not been healthy..
As a Raptors fan I hope you guys know that as long as your playing anyone BUT the Raptors I’ll root for the Blazers, you guys are one of if not the most entertaining NBA channel right now to me
I mean he hasn't been really healthy in the playoffs lately, also he pretty much has done it all honestly, he's beaten all the doubts against him , it started with if he really that guy on a team, to okay he's superstar but is he the best, okay he's winning MVPs but he don't got no chip, he's just run and dunk that don't win, and he won and it's like, okay he's done it, and everybody just didn't care anymore.
I think Gianis will be a world class player of course and the only way this would happen is if they trade well to be a consistent winning championship team in near future,good friends!!!👍🏾
No way yall think Giannis was obviously MVP. Jokic was easily the most deserving. Embiid second, Giannis 3rd. You said yourself he’s not a closer. Like that’s so important
Even if they do stay healthy, their sky is still limited. Giannis's health has been an issue, and his game is still pretty limited offensively. Dame and Middleton are in their early-to-mid-30s, and the injuries are already building on their bodies. Lopez may start to decline any time now, their depth is unimpressive, and they have almost no assets.
Haven’t watched the video yet but obviously Giannis’s dethroning from the best player in the world is not because he got Worse, it’s because Luka and Jokic got better
He's still considered top 5 by almost everyone. Imo he doesn't get talked about because his game hasn't changed much and his team hasn't been good. I don't think anyone underrates him
The reason why giannis is "underrated" is that he isn't as skilled as other big men look at Anthony Davis, Jokic, Embiid. They all have deep bags, Giannis is just a rim runner. And the only year he ended up winning a ring he barely beat a nets team without kyrie and a banged up harden who shouldn't even have played in that series. And even in the next round when he played the hawks Trae young got injured I have no clue why it isn't talked about people say the lakers ring is mickey if anything the bucks ring is "mickey" ever since he played healthy teams he's done nothing. And that one year the raptors exposed him all u need are big guys who can crowd the rim, because he can't shoot he's just a rim runner....
Right off the bat, Giannis Antetokounmpo is a better player than Anthony Davis. Availability first and foremost, but also efficiency, defense, peak, overall career. It's not a fair comparison and hasn't been for some years now. Sorry for AD, but injuries really fucked him up beyond repair. Embiid and Jokic are more fair comparisons. Each of them has something that the other cannot replicate. Jokic is the best point center that's ever graced the game, an offensive maestro and an advanced stats darling. Embiid is the best scorer among the three and can be both a back to the basket traditional center and a midrange threat. Giannis is the best defender and athlete among the three, not to mention the best finisher at the rim. 2019 Giannis was 24. Very much still developing. Who was winning and carrying their team at that age? Jordan wasn't. Lebron wasn't. The Raptors were better coached and had a more experienced team, and the Bucks crumbled In 2021, Giannis missed a game in the ECF because he was injured too. He bounced back and dropped 51 in game 6 of the finals. NOW IMAGINE IF HE WAS SKILLED! Put some fucking respect on a champion's name
@@andreacallegari7137 and also ofc the bucks were gonna beat the suns all the suns had was dbook old ass cp3 and Deandre Ayton who was solid at best ofc giannis is going to dominate the suns didn't even belong in the finals only reason they were in the finals to begin with was because Anthony davis got hurt and Kawhi the bucks and celtics have to be the fraud championships in recent memory.
Giannis is clearly the second best player on earth. No one can touch jokic, we know that. But Shai and Embiid don’t have enough to challenge him. And Luka isn’t close either. Giannis scores almost as much, and is FAR more efficient. Luka is a better offensive player, but Giannis’s defense makes him the better overall player. Giannis shouldn’t be forgotten by fans because of injuries and bad luck.
I think people’s expectation was astronomically high when Giannis won his first title, and it was a little bit unrealistic. As such, I could see how Giannis would get scrutinized a lot from a mile away.
He only seems underrated now because everyone sort of took it for granted that he and the Bucks would dominate after they won in 2021 and so them not making it back to even the Conference Finals since seems like a disappointment. It's the same way Jokic is getting a bit of hate now because of how the Wolves knocked out the Nuggets. Because everyone was talking about a Nuggets dynasty. And it just goes to show you how hard it is to make multiple finals runs. What MJ, Kobe, Steph, LeBron, Magic, Bird etc were able to do buy making multiple finals is truly astonishing. Getting to the mountain top is so hard, but what is even harder is staying there. So much needs to go right for you and you're taking everyone's best punch every night. NBA fans really need to start appreciating greatness and stop taking it for granted.
Oh no us here in Milwaukee don't take it granted at all. During that Finals run, it was probably the first time I ever saw where everyone came together to see the bucks win.
I agree with you guys on most points except towards the end when you claimed that seeing someone do something like dominate a game for the first time is more impressive than when it's being done consistently. I call recency bias on this and beg to bring your attention to the level of effort, will, physical strength and health that is required to consistently do anything over a sustained period of time. That my friends far outweighs any youthful exuberance expressed on the court until experience and expertise are put into play. Thank you.
Idc how you order them. Giannis is a top 3 player. There are only 2 players that I will have a discussion on being better than him and that's Jokic and Luka. Personally I say Jokic is the best in the league
I think there is too much potential to say if he will be the best next year. A lot of potential leaps like from Shai ant Vic maybe Luka and who knows maybe bronny??? Jk but too much to look at
What I don’t get is that Giannis was the best player in the world, then loses, and now everyone says he’s not as good, when the Denver CHOKIC “wins” against INJURED PLAY IN TEAMS in their “chip” and then proceed to lose, and people still think CHOKIC is the best player in the league 🤦♂️🤦♂️ Make it make sense 🤦♂️
OMG bro it pisses me off to this day how giannis didnt win the 23 mvp.Its absolutely rediculous to me how crying managed to get embiid the award. jokic won the mvp prior year with the narative that murray was injured and the team was 6th in the coference and giannis has the best rcord in the league without midleton and nothing he wasnt even in the real talks.so frustrating
The bucks are definitely most likely still the 2nd best team in the east,. Their defly better than the Knicks but the 76ers are a team to watch as well as the Celtics obviously

Yeah, the Embiid MVP shit has happened before. That's how Karl Malone won the MVP or Jordan. Also, make a video for the 2023 Miami Heat. Or maybe just Jimmy Butler.
Yeah, honestly never done anything significant in the playoffs outside of the 2021 hospital right where he played in injured box too, and injured Trae Young and a safe sunscreen
Gianni's is still in ppls top 3. Underrated? Nah...The playoff runs since the championship haven't helped his case but he's still rated high as hell considering.
I think this upcoming season will be a make-or-break year for the Bucks, but I don't think they're going to win the championship because of their poor coaching staff.
I dont think i agree with people picking the bucks and suns to return the next yr. I think most people assumed that the nets would be the favorites again in the west with a healthy kyrie and harden and the suns would probably lose to the lakers
Dude averaged over thirty with over 60% from the field for the first time ever and it was a footnote on last season
Fr only if Milwaukee didn’t trade away Jrue and fuck up their team identity, Giannis would’ve been in MVP talks and possibly could’ve won
And he made the jump to a truly elite playmaker. Before he was merely good, but at this point, he's up at the very top of the league. Its just so hard to win another MVP when your last MVP was quite literally arguably the greatest of all time if you played a full season.

So my 2k doesn't count?
It’s because we haven’t seen a fully healthy Bucks team in the playoffs since 2021. Giannis missed games in both the Heat 2023 and Pacers 2024 series that they lost. And last time he was healthy, he lost a 7 game series without Middleton against Boston in 2022.
Giannis is definitely still amazing and more underrated now. People shouldn’t be counting out a healthy Bucks team so quickly. And I say all this as a Celtics fan.
Yea they one healthy Gianni's season away from another chip
The Giannis carry job vs BOS in ‘22 is so underrated. 34/15/7 vs the #1 defense & Jrue was the second leading scorer with 17 PPG on 35% FG (!!!). Wish they had at least finished the job then, regardless if they lost to Miami after
@@Mieslk2wasn’t Brook Lopez out as well as Middleton? I remember Giannis needing to carry on both offense and defense
@@chrisyentastic379 He missed the vast majority of the regular season for some surgery, can't remember what, but was back in time for the playoffs.
Agree, most people only care about the playoffs and kind of rightfully so, so it makes sense that Giannis' stock has dropped so much since he's missed so much time. A more extreme case would be PG and especially kawhi. Even a great full series in a loss could help people acknowledge him again.
This channel is a gem for nba talk channels. Great editing, and personalities here
this channel is like Giannis , little underrated
Jesus loves you❤️ and He wants you to have eternal life,do you want to be saved?
Here's how to be saved:
1.The bad news:we are sinners and because of our sin we are separated from God and deserve punishment in hell because of our sins
We are sinners in need of a Savior
(Romans 3:23"): “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”)
2.The good news:Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins,He was buried & rose from the dead to give you eternal life through Him.Jesus took away our punishment for sin and bridged the gap between humans and God.Jesus is the only way,truth and life no one goes to the Father except through Him.
Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[a] Christ Jesus our Lord.”
1 corinthians 15:3-4For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
3.How can you be saved?
You are saved by the grace of God through faith alone in Jesus and not of your own (good) works,acts 16:31Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved. Cast yourself upon Him. Trust in His blood that He shed on the cross for your forgiveness of sins and His resurrection which has the power to remove your sins and to replace them with the perfect righteousness of Christ.
John 3:16:God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Romans 10:9: “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
Romans 10:10: “For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”

Things Giannis has accomplished. A championship, named to top 75 players all time, Bucks all time leading Scorer, 2x mvp, 1 defensive player of the year, most improved player and finals mvp. Hes already a HOF.
He been HOF since 2020
chat is synthetic sports the best nba talk channel?
Right now I gotta give that title to Hoop Venue.
Its up there for me
I do like motown noah the random spirals are entertaining
Alvini linguini i think it is does some really solid long form stuff
And funkydiabetic has some good stuff too
But synthetic sports is consistently putting out bangers with high prod value
No
It’s good but fuck no
I think funkydiabetic is better on the more analytical side of things, but his production is awful (which is part of the charm with him) and I’ll always be a big Kenny Beachum fan but synthetic sports has become my favorite recently
One thing to say about the Adriain Griffin firing. Not advocating for his firing at all here and it is still crazy that they fired him 43 games into his head coaching career when they were doing relatively fine. But there is a lot of revisionist history with that record. Everyone was complaining about griffin's bad schemes and failure to win the locker room during the first half of the season. When the bucks defense plummeted everyone was complaining about how griffin was using lopez and giannis. In reality they won a lot of games based on the sheer talent of giannis and dame etc. still doesn't explaining how they fired him when the team was the 2 seed 48 games into his career but just want to point out that it was a very rocky start to a head coaching job
literally everything related to the bucks is revisionist history atp. thank you for this comment because it feel like i’m losing my mind 💀
@@yea3702 or the truth has finally been revealed
@@pashanamir6151 so true, I still think they should have road it out. But if the players ain’t feeling him, it wasn’t bound to change. I just find it weird how it got to that point if Giannis did approve of him, unless it was just a yes I agree with the organizations choice
@@brianngure151No, Giannis didn’t approve of him either. There’s compilations out of him publicly being against him. Clips where he says “make a damn play,” “put me back in the game,” “I’m done with this,” and other things like that while he’s walking away from the bench mad.
@@brianngure151anyone who was watching the team could see that they had no chance of making a finals run with him as their coach because their defense was so horrendous. They were similar to the pacers but the difference was that their players are much older and injury prone so if they were gonna win a title it couldn’t have been with a team like that. The pacers only even got so far because of massive injuries, that bucks team wasn’t going anywhere under griffin.
Giannis is still as good as Jokic despite the recent narrative. They are 1A & 1B interchangeably at the moment
Ball goes 2 ways buddy, Giannis is a defensive force, was even defensive player of the year once. Jokić is an average defender
I still don’t understand why the Bucks fired Budenholzer, who mind you, bought them a CHAMPIONSHIP, and only lost in the 2023 Playoffs because of both Giannis being injured as well as the fact that Mike was grieving the death of his brother.
Cause in the NBA, and really sports as a whole, anytime there’s an issue people seem to immediately point to the coach, I don’t know why but that seems to be the case. Look at coaching turnovers just the last few seasons
As a Bucks fan who watched them go down in flames in 2023, Bud absolutely deserved to get fired. I truly give my condolences to his family, but that doesn't excuse the basic mistakes he was making. Haven't watched the series since it actually happened, so some of my statements might be a little off, but they are all genuine and its only the games that I might get wrong.
In game 4 or 5, the Bucks were leading by double digits coming down the stretch in the 4th, and then the Heat started to go on a run, and Bud ONLY called a timeout after Butler got a fast break dunk and took the lead.
He continued to refuse to make adjustments for who was defending Butler who was torching Holiday. Jrue was just too small and too tired to guard Jimmy, and when Giannis came back especially, he shouldn't have been the main defender on him.
He continued to let Jrue take way too many shots as he burned down our offense. Most people don't realize that Middleton played the best basketball of his season in the series, but instead of making him the focal point, Jrue was getting the same amount of shots as Middleton. Keep in mind, Lopez also tied (or passed, can't remember) his career high in playoff single game scoring this series, but wasn't used nearly as much as he should have offensively when Giannis was out. Speaking of Bud failing to use Lopez, remember when Lopez was NOT in the game and it allowed Butler to force OT?
He just absolutely failed to call timeouts in crucial moments. Two stand out, and they were both in game 5 iirc. The first was when Butler hit that insane lob to force OT. There was still 2-3 seconds left on the clock and Milwaukee had a time out, but Bud just let Milwaukee dribble out the clock instead of actually getting a play constructed. Then, in OT, the Heat go up (can't even remember how it happened) and instead of calling a TO, he just lets the Bucks go and it results in GRAYSON ALLEN getting the ball and DRIVING INSIDE, passing on an open mid range shot, to do some stupid eurostep that he misses AFTER the shot clock already expired. What an absolute circus that Bud was largely responsible for. Holiday sucked too, and Giannis failed at the FT line and handling the ball, but at the end of the day, Bud and Jrue's failures were the biggest issues and that's why they got chopped.
And also, keep in mind the idea of Bud not making adjustments was around long before this and if they didn't win in 2021, he was gone. Jrue also never had a good offensive post season in Milwaukee, even in 2021.
Buds brother died before game 4, honestly too idk what buds could've done with a bunch of old and bad perimeter defenders and the Miami Heat having THE greatest shooting series ever.

Giannis still the best player itl and the most disrespected nba superstar of all time. Appreciate u doing gods work 🙏
I love this channel and am a die hard Sixers fan and the constant Sixers slander, while somewhat warranted and entertaining as hell, is comical lmaooo
It’s insane that Giannis doesn’t have 3 mvps one two he’s still the best in the league the media just acts like injuries don’t happen with Giannis but they will still argue Kawhi and embiid top 5 when they have never been healthy it’s wild that Giannis is the only player they don’t talk about injuries
glad someones talking about it
This is the only channel that makes me watch content not about my sports teams
Your channel is gold. You and swishout are the most logical basketball channels on here
them, swishout, and jxmyhighroller are my big 3
I believe that next season we'll see a big chemistry improvement between Giannis and Dame
He could def still easilly take the best player title..bro is still arguably the most dominant player right now, its just a matter of if his team could perform
STOP THE CAP! THE DUDE HAS ONLY 1 RING! HE HAD A FLUKE CHAMPIONSHIP RUN! EVERYBODY'S TALKING ABOUT HOW DOMINANT HE WAS LIKE SHAQ AND WILT, AND YET CAN'T EVEN DOMINATE IN TODAY'S ERA. HE CAN'T EVEN WIN WITHOUT JRUE! GO WATCH REAL BASKETBALL!

honestly think best nba channel
Best part of my Monday right here
Synthetic Sports is underrated. Y’all deserve more subscribers ‼️
Giannis is at worst the third best player in the league, but in the playoffs his game just doesn't feel as dominant. Teams like the Heat, the Celtics or Toronto in 2019 limited his production by just putting bodies between him and the basket and forcing him to take outside shots and free throws.
I think he needs to improve his post game and maybe start playing the 5 more like AD to reach the top again.
I like Giannis, but I'm surprised at the number of people who have ignored this.
look at his averages in playoff series. ur genuinely high if u think this.
I don't care what anyone says l still admire Giannis
I love the cold war music in the intro
Have you guys ever considered uploading the audio from these talks to Spotify? I really enjoy your commentary, & I'd love to listen to you on my morning commutes in my car!
I've been a bucks fan since 2017 giannis made me a bucks fan he's become so disrespected since hes been injured imo hes still the best or 2nd best player in the nba when healthy its him and jokic if he didnt get hurt him or khris when might have a 2nd ring in 2022 and maybe another in 23 or 24 him and dame gonna prove all the doubters wrong next season 😈
Dame better show the hell up this season

@lowkey4545 I didn't even mention rings or dominance, Luka, SGA nor Embiid have any rings, I'm just talking stats and skills, averaging 30+ ppg 10+ rebounds, multiple blocks a game is definitely top 5.
(Shaq needed Kobe and D Wade to win any championships, not to even mention Penny or his ring chasing.) (Wilt was a selfish player most of the time who was dominated by Bill Russell and he absolutely needed Hal Greer to win with the 76ers, and Jerry West and Elgin Baylor to win as a superteam on the Lakers. (Also, the "dominance like shaq/wilt" is really just playstyle and physicality not one to one copy
It's important to remember in the regular season, from 2021-2024, Jokic has been the best player.
Anyone else is debatable, but it's always Jokic
Jokic has never beaten a 50 win team in the playoffs
Guy is a glorified play-in team merchant
@@chrisuncleahmad666 I guess three people can't read. I said in the regular season.
Anybody who pays close attention to the game knows Giannis is still that guy hopefully the Bucks can stay healthy because that’s the reason for they downfall the past few seasons and Giannis could have won MVP last season so he might just be out for vengeance this season but knowing the NBA all it takes is for a new player to have a breakout season to get MVP Jokic got lucky that it didn’t go to SGA.
y’all need to collab with the deep 3
It is Ironic that the bucks only made it to the 2021 championship thanks to their opponents stars getting injured and since then the only thing preventing them from reaching another championship round has been consistent injuries to their star players in the post season. I am not saying it’s Karma or something like that as I think they have been contenders especially in 2022 and 2023, it just goes to show you how much has to go right for team to make it to the mountain top let alone do it again.
I mean Giannis also missed half the ECF that season with an injury and basically dominated the Mickey Mouse run Suns on one ankle. Still ironic.
Pacers team that beat the Nicks really
Its really simple..
Giannis is underrated because hes rating is depending on team success...and since he won the chip he hasnt had a healthy team..
The dude went through 3 different coaches..strategies last season and still put up top 3 numbers..
Hes been injured in the last 2 playoffs..
And before that Middleton was injured.
So..the team.has not been healthy..
GREAT GIANNIS PROP
I still have him at 2nd in the league only behind Nikola Jokić🏇
Genuinely no idea how he didn’t win mvp last year
As a Raptors fan I hope you guys know that as long as your playing anyone BUT the Raptors I’ll root for the Blazers, you guys are one of if not the most entertaining NBA channel right now to me
Hey bud I’m from Brampton hbu
Next time, DON"T TRADE YOUR DEFENSIVE DEPTH!
I’m sure after all he has done for the Bucks, he’s gonna get his number retired and put it on the rafters.
White people get tired of Giannis' Dominance but not Jokic🤦🏿♂️
I mean he hasn't been really healthy in the playoffs lately, also he pretty much has done it all honestly, he's beaten all the doubts against him , it started with if he really that guy on a team, to okay he's superstar but is he the best, okay he's winning MVPs but he don't got no chip, he's just run and dunk that don't win, and he won and it's like, okay he's done it, and everybody just didn't care anymore.
Losing to Miami isn’t bad at all Giannis was hurt they get a pass
I think Gianis will be a world class player of course and the only way this would happen is if they trade well to be a consistent winning championship team in near future,good friends!!!👍🏾
Aye it took duncan 7 years to win his 5th chip all I’m saying is let us career play and we’ll see
Giannis is the best in the world
“Jokic was just incredible…..” against 3 play-in teams
mvp has never meant leagues best. just most valuable. people forget that.
Fire Vid
I definitely underrate him myself. I just have a hard time fearing someone that can’t score outside the paint
I am hoping Giannis and Dame can get a ring before it becomes too late for them...
Mornin’, boys. Good to see y’all.
I think the real issue with Giannis is that he's a near the basket type of player in an era that outside play is key.
Not at all it’s injures
Giannis was the 1st player ever to average 30ppg on 60% shooting lmao
Ever heard of shaq
@@thomasmontgomery805shaq never averaged over 30
No way yall think Giannis was obviously MVP. Jokic was easily the most deserving. Embiid second, Giannis 3rd. You said yourself he’s not a closer. Like that’s so important
Holy shit, this whole time I haven’t been subbed???💀💀RUclips is crazy
Can you make a videos low seed miami heat to finals from 2020 and 2023
only ogs remember the title being "Underratted"
If Giannis,Dame,Middelton can’t stay healthy sky’s the limit for them
Even if they do stay healthy, their sky is still limited. Giannis's health has been an issue, and his game is still pretty limited offensively. Dame and Middleton are in their early-to-mid-30s, and the injuries are already building on their bodies. Lopez may start to decline any time now, their depth is unimpressive, and they have almost no assets.
Owners and GM be like, "How can we make this team better? -> Sign Doc Rivers".
Doc Rivers is like the Perkins of Coaching.
Haven’t watched the video yet but obviously Giannis’s dethroning from the best player in the world is not because he got Worse, it’s because Luka and Jokic got better
But luka isn't better than Giannis
Luka isnt better than Giannis
Jokic has never beaten a 50 win team in the playoffs. Luka got to play against a laughably weak West
@@chrisuncleahmad666 and many players have beaten 50 win teams and not won a chip, what’s the point you are making?
He's still considered top 5 by almost everyone. Imo he doesn't get talked about because his game hasn't changed much and his team hasn't been good. I don't think anyone underrates him

Future Hall of Famer. The greek freak is the best superstar in the nba.
Here less than 5 minutes after upload, I am among the chosen
i fear the same for jokic in a couple years
The reason why giannis is "underrated" is that he isn't as skilled as other big men look at Anthony Davis, Jokic, Embiid. They all have deep bags, Giannis is just a rim runner. And the only year he ended up winning a ring he barely beat a nets team without kyrie and a banged up harden who shouldn't even have played in that series. And even in the next round when he played the hawks Trae young got injured I have no clue why it isn't talked about people say the lakers ring is mickey if anything the bucks ring is "mickey" ever since he played healthy teams he's done nothing. And that one year the raptors exposed him all u need are big guys who can crowd the rim, because he can't shoot he's just a rim runner....
Right off the bat, Giannis Antetokounmpo is a better player than Anthony Davis. Availability first and foremost, but also efficiency, defense, peak, overall career. It's not a fair comparison and hasn't been for some years now. Sorry for AD, but injuries really fucked him up beyond repair.
Embiid and Jokic are more fair comparisons. Each of them has something that the other cannot replicate. Jokic is the best point center that's ever graced the game, an offensive maestro and an advanced stats darling. Embiid is the best scorer among the three and can be both a back to the basket traditional center and a midrange threat. Giannis is the best defender and athlete among the three, not to mention the best finisher at the rim.
2019 Giannis was 24. Very much still developing. Who was winning and carrying their team at that age? Jordan wasn't. Lebron wasn't. The Raptors were better coached and had a more experienced team, and the Bucks crumbled
In 2021, Giannis missed a game in the ECF because he was injured too. He bounced back and dropped 51 in game 6 of the finals. NOW IMAGINE IF HE WAS SKILLED!
Put some fucking respect on a champion's name
@@andreacallegari7137 whats funny is that when giannis was hurt in 2021 ecf the bucks still won that game without him 💀💀
@@andreacallegari7137 and also ofc the bucks were gonna beat the suns all the suns had was dbook old ass cp3 and Deandre Ayton who was solid at best ofc giannis is going to dominate the suns didn't even belong in the finals only reason they were in the finals to begin with was because Anthony davis got hurt and Kawhi the bucks and celtics have to be the fraud championships in recent memory.
Giannis will get at least two more titles.
Giannis is clearly the second best player on earth. No one can touch jokic, we know that. But Shai and Embiid don’t have enough to challenge him. And Luka isn’t close either. Giannis scores almost as much, and is FAR more efficient. Luka is a better offensive player, but Giannis’s defense makes him the better overall player. Giannis shouldn’t be forgotten by fans because of injuries and bad luck.
Luka is overrated.
Giannis can touch Jokic, Jokic got his lunch money taken by Towns & Naz Reid. I think they are 1A & 1B interchangeably
Jokic has never beaten a 50 win team in the playoffs.
@@Mieslk2 Jokic has never beaten a 50 win team in the playoffs.
@@chrisuncleahmad666maybe he could’ve faced one in the finals if a certain Milwaukee Bucks didn’t lose in 5 to the 8th seed
Spellcheck
I think people’s expectation was astronomically high when Giannis won his first title, and it was a little bit unrealistic. As such, I could see how Giannis would get scrutinized a lot from a mile away.
He only seems underrated now because everyone sort of took it for granted that he and the Bucks would dominate after they won in 2021 and so them not making it back to even the Conference Finals since seems like a disappointment.
It's the same way Jokic is getting a bit of hate now because of how the Wolves knocked out the Nuggets. Because everyone was talking about a Nuggets dynasty.
And it just goes to show you how hard it is to make multiple finals runs. What MJ, Kobe, Steph, LeBron, Magic, Bird etc were able to do buy making multiple finals is truly astonishing. Getting to the mountain top is so hard, but what is even harder is staying there. So much needs to go right for you and you're taking everyone's best punch every night.
NBA fans really need to start appreciating greatness and stop taking it for granted.
Oh no us here in Milwaukee don't take it granted at all. During that Finals run, it was probably the first time I ever saw where everyone came together to see the bucks win.
I agree with you guys on most points except towards the end when you claimed that seeing someone do something like dominate a game for the first time is more impressive than when it's being done consistently. I call recency bias on this and beg to bring your attention to the level of effort, will, physical strength and health that is required to consistently do anything over a sustained period of time. That my friends far outweighs any youthful exuberance expressed on the court until experience and expertise are put into play. Thank you.
Idc how you order them. Giannis is a top 3 player. There are only 2 players that I will have a discussion on being better than him and that's Jokic and Luka. Personally I say Jokic is the best in the league
I think there is too much potential to say if he will be the best next year. A lot of potential leaps like from Shai ant Vic maybe Luka and who knows maybe bronny??? Jk but too much to look at
Yea I don't get why he's clearly the best player in the NBA Everytime someone says jokic I be like Gianni's cooks that man with ease
damn I miss Jrue
What I don’t get is that Giannis was the best player in the world, then loses, and now everyone says he’s not as good, when the Denver CHOKIC “wins” against INJURED PLAY IN TEAMS in their “chip” and then proceed to lose, and people still think CHOKIC is the best player in the league 🤦♂️🤦♂️ Make it make sense 🤦♂️

Hot take: Giannis will be the greatest power forward of all time
Technically Tim Duncan is a Center, even Pop confirms it.
Definitely depends on what you consider Timmy. IMO he has no shot of passing Tim legacy wise
Not yet, beating out Tim Duncan is gonna be quite the hurdle
He's never going to outdo Duncan. Duncan was also elite on both ends and had way more success in an era loaded with power forwards.
Dirk>>>> Giannis
The bucks are definitely most likely still the 2nd best team in the east,. Their defly better than the Knicks but the 76ers are a team to watch as well as the Celtics obviously
He definitely underRATED
STOP THE CAP! THE DUDE HAS ONLY 1 RING! HE HAD A FLUKE CHAMPIONSHIP RUN! EVERYBODY'S TALKING ABOUT HOW DOMINANT HE WAS LIKE SHAQ AND WILT, AND YET CAN'T EVEN DOMINATE IN TODAY'S ERA. HE CAN'T EVEN WIN WITHOUT JRUE! GO WATCH REAL BASKETBALL!

Jesus loves you❤️ and He wants you to have eternal life,do you want to be saved?
Here's how to be saved:
1.The bad news:we are sinners and because of our sin we are separated from God and deserve punishment in hell because of our sins
We are sinners in need of a Savior
(Romans 3:23"): “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”)
2.The good news:Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins,He was buried & rose from the dead to give you eternal life through Him.Jesus took away our punishment for sin and bridged the gap between humans and God.Jesus is the only way,truth and life no one goes to the Father except through Him.
Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in[a] Christ Jesus our Lord.”
1 corinthians 15:3-4For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures,
3.How can you be saved?
You are saved by the grace of God through faith alone in Jesus and not of your own (good) works,acts 16:31Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved. Cast yourself upon Him. Trust in His blood that He shed on the cross for your forgiveness of sins and His resurrection which has the power to remove your sins and to replace them with the perfect righteousness of Christ.
John 3:16:God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Romans 10:9: “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
Romans 10:10: “For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”
Romans 10:13 “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lords will be saved
Put your faith and trust in Jesus as your Lord and Savior and *repent* of your sins(no longer living for yourself or what the flesh desires or for worldly things but now live for Christ through the Holy Spirit)
Why don’t u do donvan Mitchell
The downfall of the bucks has made me very sad as a fan...
Don’t see how you can put them above Philly
Yeah, the Embiid MVP shit has happened before. That's how Karl Malone won the MVP or Jordan. Also, make a video for the 2023 Miami Heat. Or maybe just Jimmy Butler.
Yeah, honestly never done anything significant in the playoffs outside of the 2021 hospital right where he played in injured box too, and injured Trae Young and a safe sunscreen
Gianni's is still in ppls top 3. Underrated? Nah...The playoff runs since the championship haven't helped his case but he's still rated high as hell considering.
Lillard all the way!!
I think this upcoming season will be a make-or-break year for the Bucks, but I don't think they're going to win the championship because of their poor coaching staff.
I dont think i agree with people picking the bucks and suns to return the next yr. I think most people assumed that the nets would be the favorites again in the west with a healthy kyrie and harden and the suns would probably lose to the lakers
Hot take but I think Giannis is appropriately rated. He used to be overrated.
