The Official NBA Season Thread: Cavs vs Thunder

[WASHED KING]

At the end of the day all this stems from is our need for the next American born face of the league and the crown is just too heavy, Bron has held it since 03.

If Ant stayed at Klutch he would be ready to take the mantle.

Ain't know where you were going with Dwight so I wasn't going to touch that. #

But him living that other double life was funny to see in real time.

Not talking about the allegations.

Dwight's allegations is the reason his legacy is disrespected the way it is.

You should just embrace Giannis. People be wanting a rags to riches underdog family man story and he checks all those boxes. We all African at the end of the day anyways

 

[RustyShackleford]

People give Ant a pass they don't give to other players for stuff because they like him

They would clown other players way more that they do Ant for the same behaviors

He burned a lot bridges before that though. Rodman and Magic got similar allegations but we don’t have to talk about that.

Unless you’re talking about different allegations but that didn’t stop them from acknowledging Malone

Gotta be America born B.

You remember how they do your boy Book about his Mexican roots and his Kobe kink?

 

[RustyShackleford]

It is 2025

Men should be secure enough to admit they a baby hypocrites toward Ant because he is a patootie with charisma

We have a North American superstar in Shai. Right osh kosh bosh ?

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Giannis my guy but he’s making sex jokes every time he can. You condoning pre marital sex?

Yes.

Dwight's allegations is the reason his legacy is disrespected the way it is.

#WEGOINGTHERE

Agreed. Folks can pretend it's about other stuff but then again ain't no telling what type of wild stuff Dwight has done behind closed doors.

Shai is on a short leash.

Canadians have a bad rep over here.

You in your bag today.

I see those Drake lawsuits got you charged up

A man wit "Freak" as apart of his nickname can't be my GOAT.

We gotta be honest.

Foreign players will never get the machine behind them like American born talent. It is what it is.

If you old heads don’t like that new G3 that’s taking over the streets, this version may do

Culture is important but like should I care Giannis is greek if he’s a great basketball player? Everything about his game is American black top basketball. He got that dawg, creativity, drive to get better and he keeps a shooter ready to crash out but will do it himself too. [charlestonwhite.gif]


Seems trivial to me.

He got a lil swag to him tho. If he had the personality of a slightly toned down Ant, he'd be the face.

I understand and I'm not saying I disagree. I'm just letting you know how the masses and casual fan see it and what they want.

Cooper Flagg is going to be a bigger draw from the jump than Giannis currently.

Sure man we all family.

Agree.

And it’s weird to me that it seems like the foreign/American distinction has become a bigger deal to people than it was in the past.

Hakeem, Mutombo, Yao, Nash, for example, were promoted and marketed like all other NBA players while in the league. People didn’t get fixated on them being foreign (maybe Yao a bit) like happens now.

He didn't name himself.

I was waiting for Stephen Jackson to speak on it but he said he refuses to listen to it. - ReFUSES.
