This guy didn't just ride on people's shoulders to win a championship, he also didn't go to another team with very good players to win a championship.. he got to the championship and then literally turned it up another level and dominated.. and took the championship he didn't just win it
Is crazy how all these oldheads think that the ''media'' has some narrative going for international players when is the complete opposite. Just some days ago Giannis and Jokic were having an MVP showdown in a qualifier and all the media was talking was about Westbrook and Beverly lmao
It is pretty crazy how there will be people in this comment section saying this too. Like these people live with Patrick Star it's ridiculous
@@tooforwon241 Giannis is a cheater his ring is fraudulent
@@cwebed-stuy9951 how do you figure basketball genius
@@cwebed-stuy9951 you're mom is a cheater and your birth is fraudulent.😉
Wait... you actually LIKE basketball???!
You're NOT just waiting for the next trade/trade deadline?!?!
At least Giannis trained his mind not to bring steel into the locker room
He thought he was a tough guy that day I bet. What a tool Dilbert is!
Fr, cause Critten was a real tool Gilbert almost made the worst mistake of his life messing with him.
Facts 💯
He won a NBA championship, finals MVP, 2xs MVP, defensive player of the year, made it as a all-star captain, most improve player. And he literally did all that on a team that was there since 2014. Gilbert didn't win a title even when he faced LeBron and when he didn't he got traded or cut bc what he did off the court. The Greek freak is like a poster boy for Milwaukee bucks bc he stayed and won a chip
He never quit on his team.
Overrated
@@donnylp6240 cringe
the fact that you guys who are nobodies are trying to act like gilbert arenas a guy who was an allstar doesnt know what hes talking about is hilarious
@@donnylp6240 50 points to close finals go somewhere else
I used to be critical of Giannis and his game but after a 50 piece to win a chip? I shut tf up and paid respect to the greatness we are seeing
same. I used to call the dude
giannis Icantshootfreethrows.
he shut my ass down and I became a fan lol
🤡🤡🤡😂😂😂 it’s not all about one game clowns
@@KijuanJ73 it’s the body of work plus doing shit that nobody has ever done in the moments that count, LeBron did a lot but it wasn’t until he came back from 3-1 that people really took him seriously in GOAT discussions
I don't get what people who are slendering Giannis trying to achieve... Are they even trying to achieve something? What's the problem with Giannis?
At this point, the conclusion I have is it's because he's not American
Not American
Because they know he is the best in the world. So they have to find his flaws. Same thing happened with lebron or curry.
Exactly 😭🤦🏾♂️
@@tooforwon241 none of us black people really are so it gotta be more cause we ain’t a patriotic community tbh
as Kendrick Lamar said:
''Your jealousy is way too pretentious, you killed accomplishments''
People can't just admire, they need to compare and destroy each other cause they can't just admit a dude is great, not just great but unique in Giannis case.
I think that even if they don't admit it people like Gil are just scared of moving down the ladder, another guy on that top20 or whatever means he'll end up 109 on the list or some shit like that.
Gilbert pissed away his own legacy and is just another hater.
Giannis is soft
@@cwebed-stuy9951 50 points to close finals
@@cwebed-stuy9951 ya fav player couldn’t
@@cwebed-stuy9951 in what way. Also even if he is what does that have to do with how good of a player he is.
I used to slander giannis cuz he’d choke in the playoffs but the last two years he proved me totally wrong. Won a chip and almost soloed the Celtics that went to the finals. He’s the best player in the world rn and only curry is even close to him
Facts bro
Respect
It takes a good man to accept that things change
Giannis and Jimmy were the best players last playoffs. They were unstoppable. Their teams let them down.
@@Apo_Ni_Baby_Kupal let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Jimmy averaged like 11 points for three games against the Celtics. Wouldn’t call that unstoppable
Dude said Giannis doesn't know how to train his body and be great 💀 Giannis out of all people lmfao
He brought guns into the locker room to settle an issue with a teammate. Are we really surprised?
I'm not, but more people have to know this man is not to be listened to
@@tooforwon241 I would argue if they are taking Gil’s takes seriously, they are already too far gone.
it’s so pathetic seeing this man trying to nitpick aspects out of Giannis’ game like at some point it just becomes ridiculous because some stuff they say seriously it makes no sense. Just because somebody doesn’t understand basketball the way they think a casual or a regular basketball player will understand doesn’t mean his greatness should be downgraded. it’s actually so disrespectful they keep trying to downplay his achievements… This slander is just unnecessary from Hibachi
because not everybody is Kyrie Irving Kevin Durant Stephen Curry LeBron James Giannis Antetokounmpo is that very different beast with a different unique skill set and it’s so unfortunate that he’s not tween tween enough for Arenas but he is a defensive animal that will punish guys at the rim and will find the open man when needed be
Steph has damn near the lowest minutes per game for any star and has arguably the most stamina in nba history the more minutes the star player plays the worse the team is simple
That was my main point. Players that have to play lots of minutes most likely do so to make up the deficiencies of the team they play for
@@tooforwon241 true and when it matters (the playoffs), Giannis minutes go higher
If Giannis play 38 to 40 sum minutes then they will say he stat packing
You can never win with these guys. They look for ways to discredit him & they're running out of things to say
Former players coming into the media can be catagorized into three catagories:
1-Dudes that actually know a hell of a lot about basketball and provide unique insight into the game even if they’re sometimes wrong as hell (JJ redick, draymond green,Kenny smith)
2-Dudes that just wanna have fun and talk about basketball every now n then but also know enough about analysis that they can provide some insight (Charles barkley, Shaquille O’neil)
3-Clout chasers who are willing to say anything and i mean anything to catch views and jump on any topic like a bunch of hyenas to get those sweet sweet views (Ryan collins,Gilbert arenas, Pat Bev)
Kendrick perkins in group 3 too
Ryan Hollins way better now
I like this
Media archetypes lol. Cool take.
It's the fact that he said it, got called out and then went to double down with fucking lies and tried his best to demean all of his accomplishments
It's just disgusting
37 minutes led lebron to the PLAY IN. 32 minutes led him to a chip...
A lot of times, guys had to play extra minutes to make up for the team's overall deficiencies. And it really goes to show you how absurd it is to fault Giannis for playing 32 mins when he has the second highest PER in NBA history doing so
Kind of reminds me of how people kept bitching about the Spurs when Pop would rest Duncan, Ginobli and Parker for a game.
@@bigbearkat2010 So sad because Duncan is criminally underrated because of stuff like this. Arguably the most underrated player of all time
I wish kobe Bryant were still here. he would be so proud of giannis while still pushing him to be even better.
As always, a classy video! Thank you for showing Giannis the respect he deserves!
Honestly at this point Giannis deserve a longer deep dive because he's had to deal with so much hate. I'll get that done at some point God willing
Congrats on 10k man very deserved
Thank you man! It's been a fun ride 😊
Been my favourite channel for the last 1-2 months bro, keep up the vids man they kill me every single time 😭😭❤️
I respect Arenas' game, I respect that he worked on a more graceful looking skillset and pushed it to its limits, but setting all that aside, any NBA player should know just how difficult it is to win a title. I can't understand how it makes sense for someone who tried and failed for 10 years to criticize the guy who actually finished the job as the best player on his team and with so much time and drive left to improve his skills and knowledge. It would be like if I said, "eh, that Magnus Carlsen guy is just steamrolling opponents with opening preparation, he has a piss poor process for studying and understanding chess." Like, have you considered that the guy who became the champion (in a slightly different era of basketball, at that) has the current game figured out better than you?
giannis is big forward / center learn basketball at age 15 don't need learn points guard skills first giannis have skills big men skills dominate rim proctocter spin move speed euro step rebounds block assists his one the big men in nba can bring the ball like guard last year regular averaged 29 .3 points 12 rebounds 5 assists 2 block playoffs average 34 points 13 rebounds 6 assists 1 block giannis average nba finals against suns 35 points 13 rebound 4 block 6 assists if this nt skills domination combines i don't wat people talking average
Man, I love your take. You broke it down in a way that even anybody that doesn’t know basketball can comprehend. You completely debunked Arena’s silly take. He might be smoking something.
Keep up the great work. I subscribed.
I am telling you right now… never in your life let someone make your opinion feel invalidated just because you didn’t play basketball. All I did was play varsity in high school and I promise you I swear to god I know more about basketball than Gilbert arenas. I can tell u right now I have a higher basketball IQ than Westbrook. Just because u met the athletic requirements doesn’t mean ur mental is just as good as ur physical. Some nba players just don’t know that much about basketball it is as simple as that.
You are just wrong. Your basketball IQ is not better than a former MVP, and you do not know more than an all star caliber player. They say these things about Gianni’s because of pride, not because of what they actually know
Arenas is the perfect person to point to when people try to gatekeep basketball discourse to "being a real hooper". So ridiculous!
@@BaamtheSSJBaller-RAGOAT for real anybody that never played professionally for years obviously has a lower basketball iq. Unless you are a scout or a coach and studied the game for many years. This guy is trippin.
@@BaamtheSSJBaller-RAGOAT Truth. Agent Zero knows basketball better than 90% of NBA players, but for that exact reason he also has more pride than most either...
See I would agree til you disrespected Westbrook
The jealousy and the salt is off the charts. This guy has no chip. Giannis is the main guy in a championship game.
No idea why players can't understand that Hustle is a Skill. Defense is a Skill. Rebounding is a Skill. Passing is a Skill. His Handle at 7 Feet is a Skill. Finishing at the Rim is a Skill.
“Skill” is so overrated , KD got a big bag but constantly gets out played by people with lesser skill . Giannis is the best player in the world
Even with all the skills KD does have. Just like Giannis, he benefits from being a very tall player. A lot of the time he is just elevating over shorter players. Most centers and power forwards can't guard KD. But because his game looks nicer we don't hear about his physical advantage.
Great channel awsome content
Thank you mate
yessurrrr a new video let’s get it baby 💯💯💯
The Giannis disrespect gettin way 2 crazy rn😭😭 at this point its just funny
I honestly don't know if it can get worse than this. What will they say next lol? He's clearly one of the best players & like Curry they got little ammo to use against him
Ayeeeeeeee 10k bro congratulations 🎊
Thank you 🎉 big things are coming
I wouldn't really say that about early 2000s 76ers, that had Larry Brown, because that team was mostly built as a legitimate defensive unit to complement Allen Iverson's offensive output. So, I wouldn't legitimately say it was really a carry job.
Fair point. And I think both can be true. The team had it strengths on defense, but if not for Iverson they'd be struggling a lot more
The Giannis slander needs to stop but AI was also 5’11” and the only offensive threat on the team. He scored that much while having to get his shot off at his size and playing 1 on 5 offensively … took that team to the finals. Love Greek but the degree of difficulty for AI was on completely different level the way I see it.
@@Ce2301umd I think that also had to deal with Allen's playstyle of not being a past-first guard, along with his one-on-one slashing towards the basket, even when they added offensive players after that 2000-01 run.
@@Ce2301umd i mean you're proving his main point, this being; the reason players have to play too much minutes is because they're bad constructed and you said it yourself AI was the only offensive option in the team so he had to average 40+ minutes per game for them to have a chance
Well there was the carry job by the refs to get past the bucks if we count that?
Congrats on 10k man. Love the vids
Thank you Liani! Best part is I'm having fun doing these videos
Gilbert understood basketball so well that he brought a gun into the locker room.
Great points in the vid, too4one. I used to feel sour towards Giannis about his victory over the Suns in the '21 Finals but as this past season proved that kind of logic is stupid. The Bucks won that title because they were the better team, even if my heart wanted CP3 to win a chip. So this past season converted me into understanding just how unique he is; from battling lineup changes to trying to overcome the Celtics in the 2nd round in 7, I respect him so much more than I could have ever imagined. Hate him if you must but this guy is the real deal and you can't argue that fact.
I'm glad you are able to be honest about this. Respect to you!
My major issue with Gilbert Arenas is saying Giannis doesn't understand basketball and doesn't improve when every season he steps his game and adds a new facet to his arsenal every season.
Coaching staff limited him his first 3 years... Changes in personnel, and Giannis adding more muscle is what you see. They fully run the teams offense thru him shooting more and mostly in the paint where due to his size is unstoppable for most (there are exceptions of course). The only thing Giannis truly without other outside factors is his footwork but even that was his coaching staffs doing(Jason Kidd). But that's not understanding the game of basketball in it's intricacies on what he personally needs to improve on his game. Arguably stepping his game up is him shooting more, he worked on footwork back in mid 2010's when he entered the league....since then nothing changed but volume of shots ... Even his assists are just necessary because he is doubled almost 40% of the time. But hey everyone is t a finesse player that works on things they noticed needed work. If you say he shoots better from 3pt now if argue we'll he was barely shooting 1 3pt a game, and has upticked to trying 4 a game...he has spurts of playmaking but he can't focus in enough for it to be consistent. I'm not saying he has 0 basketball iQ but I believe Gil is correct that as an individual he doesn't know the game as well as he should being an NBA star. If he did, he would understand how to focus in, how to work on his flaws that would have him expand his game outside paint scoring and the occasional 3 or jump shot off the wing inside the 3 pt line. Now yes dude can for sure take over games and pound the ball in the paint...we've know that since his first/2nd year. Yes his 50pt finals game was incredible, it also came from the paint for the most part and didn't exactly show a vast array of new and improved skills we didn't know he had his first year. Still incredible for sure... But does it mean he has high iQ when it comes to basketball? Not a chance
Gilbert already lost the credibility to speak on “Understanding,” when he couldn’t understand that you’re not supposed to threaten your teammates at gunpoint in a NBA locker room. All this did was confirm that his credibility needs to stay revoked. L Dilbert 🤡
If anything the fact Giannis is putting monster, MVP-like numbers on limited minutes is something to marvel at. Arenas was scoring a ton on an eternally mediocre Wizards team where things could have been even worse if he didn't do so. GA gets to sit on the bench cause they Bucks have been built competently for a while now and they're trashing a lot of teams on a consistent basis.
The slander against the Greek freak is ridiculous. He's probably the best player in the league "I hate saying best of anything, but the point is he's incredible." yet people want to bash him. Winning a championship, dominating the finals & winning finals MVP doesn't shut these idiots up. It's so annoying.
Honestly, the more I watch how NBA players view non-america players. it makes me kind of vibe with the xenophobia concept. it doesn't make sense how people look down on Luka or giannis.
I'm showing ppl this video when they say we HAVE to listen to NBA players' opinions.
The fact that Giannis is playing only 32 minutes while still DOMINATING the league should actually be a positive for him shouldn’t it? Remember when Steph was playing barely 33 minutes per game and say out like 20 *WHOLE* 4th quarters in 2016? Didn’t see anybody saying Steph isn’t great cuz his MINUTES PER GAME was lower than guys like KD or LeBron or Harden. The favt that minutes per game is being held against Giannis is crazy, disrespectful, and damgerous.
Exactly, the most impressive thing to me about that steph season was precisely the number of min he played and just how many fourth quarters he sat. Like the fact that he put up those numbers while playing way less that his mvp peers that just makes that shit more impressive. Same thing for giannis, the fact that hes doing this on these min is super duper impressive.
Its like "this dude is so good he dsnt need to play as much as other guys to ensure his team wins, therefore hes not dominant"....makes no damn sense.
@@diablejambe3460 these former players really trynna kill the “He played in the NBA so he knows more than you” argument 😂😂
You would think a guy whose career flamed out from injuries would understand the importance of sometimes playing less minutes to avoid getting pointlessly injured in garbage time
Yeah if Giannis played 40+ mins a game his numbers realistically go up even more so he could fuck around and average 40 and 20 for a season but it also increases his chance for injury
My guy Gilbert “Brings guns to” Arenas is being delusional.
Gilbert Arenas is a straight CLOWN.
ayeeeeeee congrats on making the vids for a year bro!
Appreciate it!! Been seeing you commenting here for a while. Glad you're still here with the support 🧡
@@tooforwon241 np bro. best nba content on here easily
Congrats on 10k!
Thank you!
Giannis is literally getting better and better and people are still disrespecting him for no reason
Please name somebody working harder on both ends of the game than Giannis. If you like bron or steph over him fine, but is it not crazy nobody else in the leauge rn even comes close? Let’s just imagine he never develops any offensive skills whatsoever..bro’d still be a defensive monster. And Jordan is GOAT to me but he didn’t win all 6 championships sitting in the post. I’d argue he didn’t even get his first 3peat with a SINGLE post move. Wanna compare Giannis to MJ? Talk bout how they both climbed over walls the defense built against them. Stop playing
Lbert is living in 2016-17 that’s why Giannis is bad and Westbrook is a triple double machine it all makes sense
I love your style🦖
Will never understand why people feel the need to downplay Giannis. Strange wave of haters lately.
He’s the face of a Small market, he’s not from America. It’s a shame Giannis gets disrespected for being great.
“Giannis doesn’t understand basketball he doesn’t amid eryand the workout” sure sure he was a rookie weighing 190 now he 250 cool coll, he a champion finals mvp cool cool, top 75 cool cool. Gilbert, you never made it past the first round, u were never mvp caliber. But he just salty Gianni’s did more in much much lesser time
Lol this is what you get when you start putting ex players who never amounted to anything in the league or had delusions of grandeur, on pedestals as basketball experts.
man you deserve more subs
No wonder Gilbert never achieved anything note worthy in his career, he values skills over everything.😒
Steph: up 30 so sitting out the 4th quarter
Gilbert: He's not clutch/a 4th quarter scorer
2021 Giannis is getting disrespect that 2001 Shaq would have NEVER got. and I’m over it.
Gilbert's never won anything. Giannis is a back to back MVP. One of 13 players to ever do it. He has a finals MVP as well as a ring.
Gil, if you think you have to average 38+ MPG, perhaps that is why you never have deep playoffs run
Let's not forget, Dilbert did bring a gun to the locker room, he's not the brightest lightbulb in the room...
Sold and Sage are so ahead in subscribers and they aren't bad but this feels wrong.
Congrats on 10k, on to silver plaque
Imagine caring about a minutes per game that much lol
Besides if he's getting his crazy numbers in less time, doesn't that just make a better argument for Giannis? Lmaoo
@@ronaldomendoza7578 Arenas is just like a lot of NBA players. They like players who can score off the dribble and play in a way that is aesthetically pleasing. Ball dominance, high volume scoring, and handles are way more important to them than off-ball movement and efficiency.
They will use anything to hate on someone.
@@ryanmccrary1880 Guess you are right since most NBA players can't even sniff a chip, much less be that guy who led a team into one
@@ryanmccrary1880 tween tween culture really damn stupid at this point
It makes me so angry that grown ass man will go out of their way to hate on somebody as positive as Giannis is.
U deserve more subs
There are legitimate criticism one could raise about Giannis. But to follow up your hot take about Giannis with “he doesn’t understand how to he better” and “he doesn’t understand how to train his body” …. The only explanation I can think of is you either haven’t actually watched a game of NBA basketball in the last several years, or you are blatantly lying. Those are two of his strengths!!!
“It shouldn’t surprise none of us dat he is that stupid” 😂
10k!! Woohoo!! 🥳
Yay! Thank you!
If Giannis really starts playing 40+ mins, number of points he would score would be through the roof ngl
10:11 Giannis is so good he can pass to himself without a backboard what a G
So if Giannis average 40 minutes again he'll average around 40 points per game. You really want that? Take the minutes he sits and catch some rest. Ain't no one lasting all season getting beat up by that man.
Skills are overrated.
The only "skill" that matters is winning, who gives a shit about what moves you can do or from where you can shoot, Giannis has proved that he can win (:
Ikr? For example what the point of doing 30 crossovers in 10 seconds if can put the ball in the hoop?
@@nukeboy4939 2k players in the park be like:
New sub 💪
The disrespect Giannis gets and jokic get it’s crazy Gilbert is one of the guys who likes scorer’s who are more flashy like KD and kyrie players score and Giannis is different and dominant in his own way and got a championship
Stats don’t lie. Giannis is a beast, period. You can say what you want about skills, they guy performs most than any other skilled player in the NBA.
Gilbert is just envious of Giannis. That's it. Let's keep it simple here.
Phil Handy is NOT with the comments being made 🤣
The Goofy shirt represents Gilbert so well 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Giannis’s resume shits on anything Gil has to say. That title you skipped over Gil is something you don’t have son smh
Gilbert mad cause he was just another Bradley Beal type dude, decent numbers but never taken seriously as a championship threat, also his body couldn’t handle the NBA he had a short career while the freak put on a frame and is extremely durable so far
You gotta pay attention to what Gilbert _isn't_ saying, which is that his monthly crack shipment finally arrived
🤣
Let the hate continue! It’s fuel! Giannis will always get better, so let them continue to hate while he’s working!
I have no idea how to express my anger or in disbelief of what this guy is describing Giannis man
7 of 10 FTs is still valuable to me lmao. Give me that 70% Giannis!
I really don’t bother with Gilbert Arenas takes. It’s hard for me to put a lot of stock in any players opinion who hasn’t won at a high level consistently. 🤷🏻♂️
The Lakers assistant coach while listening to Arenas bs, probably remebered 6 months ago Giannis destroying both KD & Lebron in LA, that's why he got that face.
The charts you showed about his improvements actually helps gill’s case
You should check out the recent FIBA World Cup European Qualifiers Greece vs. Serbia, it was a hell of a duel between Jokic and Giannis.
Bro you need to understand that Allen Iverson took way more shots and plus he didn't rim run as much as The Greek Freak does
Hence him not being as efficient. No disrespect, he just wasn't as good, and part of it was his height
You good bro but no that's not it he had to do to much hear what NBA players have to say a bout him but you're right they do down play antetokounmpo
Bruh he was talking about MJ in the 80s and how he developed he’s back to the basket game in the 90s.
Lebron has never once had a better year then giannis the past 4 years
Iverson is an outlier he is one of the few players known for never getting tired
I don't think he's realizing, by diminishing Giannis, he's destroying the legacy of guys he 🧢s for, very oxymoronic ✔️
Lebron just tapped this Gilbert shoulder and he bricks the freethrows. Lol "skills" 🤣
10:30 EXACTLY, there are so many guys who are 6'11 and can't go the basket when and how they want to, Giannis can (with ease too)
The Naruto music at the beginning 😂😂😂😂
NBA has a history of shading international players, it's not the first time and not the last one either...
You can always tell when a talker doesn't really hoop. Gil knows the game and what he's talking about.
People like him, make Giannhs stronger!!!
You talk about giannis and we learned your name!!!! 😂😂😂
The NBA must have awful players seeing that they can’t stop someone who doesn’t know how to play basketball or train his body
If u never played basketball it is a flex to say you played minutes.
Giannis shooting skill has improved, from 3 and the mid range; he shoots the same percentage from mid as Joel embiid
