Sup
Somebody should grab both of them, build around them and good luck trying to contain that Team.🏀🤔
Giannis plays Hard definitely committed to the game. KD still is Elite a lot of interesting situations developing.🏀👏
Ugh with that ugly ass Padres hat on 😂😭😭
KD is good but he's no Leader
Leaders set the culture
Giannis for Booker???
kds old as dust but you aint lying giannis is a system. teams missing a piece might not want to tear down what theyve built for giannis considering how unforgiving the collective bargaining framework can be (ask ishbia). kd fits much easier in a title contender looking for a final piece and doesnt need the ball like giannis.
I think Garcia is clearly overvaluing KD's value and it seems like a propaganda campaign to sell him high
Even if we assume KD is the same level of player as Giannis today and for the next season. He would not bring in half the value Giannis does because KD 36 turning 37 and has 1 year left on his contract.
No one is trading away a chet, 5 picks, and another good role player for KD unless he signs an extension.
It's ridiculous for the suns to ask back what they traded when they aren't giving the same value because KD is 3 years older and has 1/4th of the contract length he had when he joined the sun's
Giannis is going to the thunder. Hartenstein and Isaiah Joe plus 5 first round pick and some swaps.
TOOOOOODAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY !
All things work for good, for those who Love God and are called according to his purpose Romans8:28🏀🙏
I wouldn’t be surprised if Durant stays
Suns fans are going to disappointed in the return for KD.
Spurs are not going for Giannis or KD
But KD is our only 3pt shooter 😭
Brendon is right, Giannis is the better player. KD gets bullied while Giannis is a bully…Ijs
More realistic trade idea – Giannis for booker ,Dunn , beal.. cause we can't get giannis for KD..
Ben you’re tripping if you think as of NOW kd is better than Giannis
You guys see what Jimmy is doing rn, man he’s talking shit to buddy and he’s doing so much better bruh. THE JIMMY EFFECT IS REAL
We’re always lied too because James jones always says “in house” it’s so annoying we don’t know what we’re doing James is a yes man and needs to be gone
this year giannis has proven he isnt carrying a team to a chip and he didnt in 2021. he had a lot of help that was takent for granted.
lmao KD and Giannis going to the same team. come back to this.
04:50 KD trade was dumb af but Giannis is younger. And is an actual competitive athlete who wants to win. Not a weed addict who just wants to hoop.
10:08 BALLHANDLING? my dude did u watch Suns last 3 seasons? Durant is a walking turnover….
Saying Giannis is better then kd and it not even close is crazy kd scores at all 3 levels remember that
I see kd is using all if his burner accounts in the comments section. 🤣
Kd hates when people say Giannis is better than him. They are 2 different styles of players. Both dominate in their style . But Giannis is 5 years younger. And a top 3 mvp candidate every single season . Been awhile since kd was a top 3 player.
Remember When KD Called Lebron Toxic….Welp Lebron Won One More Ring To Get To Four, Steph Curry Won 2 Rings Pre/Post KD While KD Has Lost In The Most Embarrassing Ways Possible.
So Who Is Toxic Again!? 😂😂😂
As much as I respect and love KD, if Bucks offer straight swap between Giannis and KD right now, I do it without further thinking. KD now, is a finishing piece on a winning team (ie. Rockets). Giannis is still someone who can be a cornerstone for next 3-4 seasons.
I think all the gainnis being traded is dumb. He has never asked for a trade and why don’t ppl ever say he needs more help. When LB LOSE THEY SAY GIVE HIM HELP, NOT HE SHOULD LEAVE STOP IT.
