I guess the question now is who and when dethrones Giannis next... My guess is that Giannis will last on his (well deserved) throne for no more than a decade, unless there is a phenomenon picked up in the following drafts, my first pick on the successor would go to Sekou Doumbouya the Pistons drafted at no.15 this season...

Originally posted by mojo13 View PostI don’t really think these rankings mean much of anything but they are sketchy at best. It not the top 10 or 15 that are so out of place but it gets pretty bad after that.
I’m still taking Kawhi and a healthy Durant before Giannis.

Well Ramona Shelburne... You should have known better before making such a ridiculous statement out of your mind in national TV...
Rachel Nichols, Ramona Shelburne and Nick Friedell discuss the prospects of Giannis Antetokounmpo signing a long-term contract with the Milwaukee Bucks, as o...
This is what happened with one of your fellow reporters that did the same:
Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
You are now on Giannis' black list Ramona!

LOL... Bucks were fined 50K by the NBA for stating the obvious... https://larrybrownsports.com/basketb...ontract/515634
But Giannis wasn't fined for hinting that he will accept the offer!

Apparently, it seems that the entire press is laughing (and then it does so on national TV) against the NBA fining the Bucks GM for ...tempering!
GM Horst committed "the crime" of confirming that the Bucks plan to offer Antetokounmpo the $250 million supermax contract next summer, when Giannis is still under contract and when no other team can offer Giannis anything!

Originally posted by Straight forward View PostI run through ESPN Top 100 and there's only 2 players who can may be called traditional old school centers in Adams and Nurkic, and even the latter is a great passer for a center and Adams can move a little bit. Traditional bigs are extinct for good, specially those who can't move their feet defensively, IMO. You just badly need to be able to step out and rotate. Marc Gasol and Jokic, two fatties, can live with top 100 not only because of extreme offensive talent and versatility, but because they have elite IQ at D. Big lumberjacks who brings only low post scoring and defence are extinct from top 100 for good.

Giannis was asked about his contract extension during the press conference last night... As expected, his reply was both polite but firm too in his willingness not to have the media bringing the subject up, or creating (fictitious) scenarios on Giannis future decisions:
“I feel talking about my contract on a team that we have a chance to get out of the East and play in the NBA Finals is disrespectful to my teammates. At any point of the season, I don’t want to be disrespectful selfishly talking about my contract…I don’t want to take the attention away from where we need to have attention. I just got to stay focused on what’s important right now.” Giannis said.
