He really wanted to go to Miami 😂😂
The league would be much more exciting if he did. The NBA shot themselves in the foot when they block the trade behind close doors.
@@Nat_Turner10_8what you know??
Whats crazy is bra wanted a real contender around him for years , he finally gets somewhere where he has a way higher chance of winning he is unhappy , nigga jus need to be grateful

Everytime McCants makes a good point he follows with 7 straight ridiculously absurd points
Be pissing me off bro. Be thinking he gone have a decent conversation just to say some stupid shit 😂
He never makes any great points so this is where you went wrong.
@@Alisol96he wears a crown unironically it’s gg for having a serious conversation
He is like a casual who happened to make the league 😂😂😂😂
@@thefrostyvette876 I went wrong?
The fact that McCants said MJ developed the fadeaway in 96 😑
That should’ve got him kicked off the set mid argument!
🗣️ SNOOKIE!? 👏🏾 DO WORK!
🤣 🤣 Facts I was maybe he meant 86
in fairness, mike became super great at the fadeaway in his second 3 peat run. he did have it and developed it in the late 80s. but he was still considered jump man at that time. by the second run he was the fadeaway king, not really jump man anymore....not saying he didnt hit a bunch of fadeaways in the early 90s, cos he definitely did
@@el84oro Mike's the 🐐 but I do agree with you
@@muhammedking3963 I don't disagree with that. Mj's the goat imo
"Why did Jordan develop a signature fade away when he can go to the basket?, Because he wanted to improve his skills" .. "no because they were fouling the eff out of that nikka" 😂😂
Eh about half and half. Some of the calls were rigged in his favor. But hey when you get crowned a GOAT for losing to the pistons in the 3rd round who's really gonna argue with you. 😂
Carry on tho
"Fadeaway MJ" wasn't "Air Jordan", '97 MJ wasn't flying through the air like '87 MJ & he understood that, don't forget a/b the up & under 🤔........6RINGZ!!
@@kingrecoilz4491 Rigged in his favor to lose? Where is the logic in that?
Rashad's argument is contradictory. Initially, he said MJ developed the fadeaway due to fouls, then claims MJ didn't have it until '96.
Given MJ was getting slaughtered in the late '80s and early '90s, it would've made sense for him to develop the fadeaway then, not in the mid-late '90s when he was better protected by the league and refs.
His mid, 3, post and fadeaway was aimed at diversifying his skillset. Like Kobe and LeBron, he understood that athleticism wanes with time, and skill becomes crucial. Becoming less skilled makes it easier for defenses to stop you, turning you into an offensive liability.
Both are true lol 😂
This started with Dame picking Bam over Giannis to most the video ended up being about Michael Jordan 😂😂😂
It’s his list but Bam over Jokic, Embiid, and Giannis is crazy!!!
Synergy matters when the heat big three had synergy there were no players before or after that could stop them same with golden state and the bulls
@@Nat_Turner10_8Yeah but we’re talking about one player that ain’t better than anyone else that was mentioned.
@@SekeU85 That team he mentioned is clearly based on having fun lol and at least they all compliment each other well.
💯
With that team those guys you name would be in the way. He thinking like a gm not who’s better. He knows damn not gonna need the ball on offense
Gil areanas- “Jason Richardson couldn’t shoot a gun”
😭😭😭 Ik who could
😂😂😂
dawg😂😂😂😂
Giannis been an MVP and Champion while Dame was in Cabo every year
Bro damn went to Portland put him on any big team and history would look a lot different in his prime dame was that guy

“You cant watch film and become a better player”. ???????? Get him off the show asap please! You can absolutely watch film and become a better player
He said you have to apply it.... I see you picking and choosing bruh 😂
But it CAN help.......................@@naklovesjesus3204
How do you know what to apply if you don’t watch it 🤔
You can watch film all day and not learn. Some people are not visual learners. Some people are physical learners. Some people are audio learners.
@@ChoosenPeople no great champion player didn’t watch film 😂they might not be study heads but they watching film
Norris Cole is right as a point guard you got to think like that this why Dame not a championship level player
And why Gil wasn’t a championship level player too
@@CJGraeGil got hurt but before that he carried the Wizards franchise from obscurity to contender in a manner that no other player has done before or since Gil. Prime Gil would cook Dame.
@@Byronic19134 "no other player has done before or since Gil"
Funny you should say that, because Gil was eliminated by LeBron every year in the first round. And at the same time LeBron was turning the 17-win Cavs into a 66-win team, and led them to the finals.
Prime Gil probably wouldn't cook Dame, but Dame probably wouldn't cook Gil, either.
@@penkima4923 Dame is our generations Reggie Miller. The only difference is he won’t retire with one team.
@@Byronic19134facts! He didn't have nobody on his team
To be fair, Giannis doesn't need to play like jokic because he's 3x as athletic. Jokic moves like 7ft 🥔 potato sack so he uses his IQ more, but they're Both Unstoppable.
Y’all all say this til he plays the heat or sees a serious box 📦😭😭😭😭😭
@@wooweezyyeah, but he beat the hell out of the Heat in 2021, did we forget? The difference was that everyone else around Giannis was finally hitting their shots when he got boxed in and he passed it out to them, hence why he averaged like a triple double that series.
Giannis played well against the Heat in the Playoffs. He just didn’t make free throws. The Heat force role players to beat them. And the role players couldn’t beat them.
@@Jroddxilla EXACTLY.
He won’t play like that his entire career
Every time Gil made a point they moved the goal post.
McCants & Norris- Giannis 3s getting better.
Josiah- Giannis 3s are down
McCants & Norris- what he need to shoot 3s for
And McCants and Norris were right, only perhaps a tad unbeknownst. Giannis' 3-point shooting follows the league trend. During the GSW small ball dynasty Giannis shot more threes and with better accuracy. Now, during the Jokic-Embiid-Giannis big man era, Giannis takes and hits less threes.
Gil's irrational hate for Giannis and Milwaukee is crazy.
Irony of McCants talking about bias hate and right on que mentions Bron 😂
Gil hate for Giannis is unreal considering he acknowledges him as one of the best players in the league
Giannis slander is disgusting 🤢
The more jumpers Giannis shoots the more the defender loves it💯
He still keeps shooting them tho' 😐, that's what's frustrating a/b watching Giannis!! He doesn't make the game simple for himself.......IMO 🤔!!
how Giannis won two mvps
@@theALMIGHTY987 He's shooting over 50% of those jumpers in his last 10 games. just saying
@@basmilli4438 What does that mean 🤔, he's bailing defenses out when he does that!!
@@basmilli4438he’s volume shooting 3 point with an efficiency 25% this year and free throw at 65%. Just saying
Gil HAS to stop with the Giannis slander it really discredits the rest of his other takes. Giannis shooting a career high from the floor this season and career high in assists. Of course his player profile is still similar because he's the same person still. He just drastically improved on everything. Most guys rookie scouting report or profile will still be the same. For example what did they say about Curry before the draft? A guy who shoots a lot of threes and great handles. That's still Curry today but he is much better than he was in his early years overall lol guys don't necessarily drastically change the way they play, but they just get better at what they already do and maybe add little layers.
he didn’t slander him he just pointed out that he hasn’t really improved his weaknesses and him saying that he doesn’t watch film makes it more believable and understandable he doesn’t study himself or how teams play him and he dominates imagine if he did.. that’s all the man said
From the moment Giannis was drafted it was 4 years since the first time he touched a basketball. Kids play from 7 in Greece but he couldn't so dont say that he knew basket when he came to the NBA. He didnt know anything. All he had was the perfect frame to work on and he worked more than any other player has in the past 10 years or maybe in the history of the NBA.
Thank you for speaking the truth. These guys thinks that Giannis was born into privilege like they were and was able to play basketball early in life
To be fair… if you ask Giannis the same question he would not include Dame… hell I don’t think anyone in the world will 😂
I think he would, he's savvy
I wouldn't too. Dude is shooting 42 FG% 34% and yet he runs around saying he's the best shooter. He wanna go to Miami? Does Miami even want him?
Dame is the 2nd best shooting PG of all time, arguably, not named Stephen Curry, so...silly comment

🤣
Mcquit funny you can see why his career came to a fast end
Ofc he adds Bam. Dame knows he belongs in Miami and is tanking his trade value to make it easier for Miami to grab him. 😂
He CANT TANK HIS TRADE VALUE that contract is SIGNED bucks should trade dame for Kyrie a REAL BALL PLAYER
Gimme Kyrie
@@solomonjewelz4846man. I’ve been wanting Kyrie with Giannis for the longest time. I do that deal straight up.

@Pler1978 Kyrie and Luka Do not play well together with Dame LUKA can be BALL DOMINATE all dame got to do is SHOOT
Must be a slow news day😂
Bingo
Very slow
I absolutely adore this show from the core of my being and everything Gil is doing. Best up and coming sports media company hands down.
"that phone got all his answers" 😂😂😂😂. Mccants a fool.
Giannis talks about watching film all the time. He was fucking around.
Just a hater
Giannis watches film and he say so in interview. He watches games too. He has said that. Either Arenas was hating or rating
@Pashya1 When it comes to Giannis on this show, it's all about ratings 😂
Exactly you can’t be that good without watching film
MJ DEFINITELY started that fade away in 89-90
😂
He had it off rip kid, by 87 it was very well polished
@@ttt2690off rip is kinda crazy. the first like two years of mj couldnt shoot
Not true
These dudes are just hilarious, you got a new fan now haha
Wasn’t McCants out of the league by year 4? Bro might want to stfu.
Yea he was trash
You can’t be trash and win in college
you never was in the league. you probably should take your own advice
@@user-pt9pg9wx5z Adam Morrison has entered the chat
@@kcbanks3591 McCants that you? I could but I’ve also been a fan of McCants since he was in college. Also seen him get lazier and lazier until Pat Bev ran his ass off the Euro leagues because … McCants was lazy. He didn’t want to work. He didn’t want to watch film. He thought his talent would get him wherever he wanted. He was dead wrong. Just like he’s dead wrong on Giannis not watching film.
To be fair dame never wanted to go to Milwaukee he wanted to go to Miami to play with Bam it’s wild to not include Giannis but there’s reason behind it
The reasoning to leave out Giannis was bad, if there was some. I think Dame just forgot to include Giannis, without any reasoning. I can buy there's reasoning behind including Bam, though.
Pretty sure I read before this that it was not including Giannis. Considering Dame was on the record he'd want to team up with Giannis over any other player in league.
The difference between Giannis and Bum Simmon’s game comes down to effort/ heart/ determination
If Bum Simmons had those 3 things there’s no reason why he wouldn’t have been in the same level as Giannis
Giannis came from nothing and had to work to hard whereas Bum Simmons had been receiving nothing but praise his whole life and thought he could just play bball in chill mode
The guy who be laughing in the back is always on point
Dame is great - when there's no real pressure.
Like a 3 point contest or ASG.
He's not NBA Top 5 in Assists or 3P FGM.
Giannis is amazing in almost every game.
Against Memphis dude was like 80% fgm.
I just wish Giannis was a Laker.
😂😂😂 Bam Adebayo… 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Gil got cooked on this one😂😂 I never seen Rashad make so much sense😂
McCants saying you don’t have to watch film to get better is ridiculous 😂
Crazy talk
Man yk he didn’t say that yk what he meant , you just don’t watch it & get better you have to actually play bra
@@491Gustodudes don’t listen hey. Mccants didn’t say that 😂
@@491Gustoyou do realize players do get taken out for looking loss out there. You know what helps with that? Film.
He did NOT say that
Iv never seen so much criticism over an NBA champion then Giannis, its insane
Most disrespected superstar ever
@@manny6669 yep
Lebron? 😂
@@manny6669nah right now it’s luka but ppl do play w Giannis for some reason. I like the guy as a player and person from what I see. He def deserve those mvps
Easiest championship run of all time
Gianni’s when he 1st came into the league he had nothing going for him other than hustle and defense and potential due to him being 7foot an athletic as hell I distinctly remember them referring to him as “Raw Prospect”
From what I remember, Freak was suppose to be a Pippen/Igoudala type player. Defensive point forward. Then he physically became the freak. A consistent middy is necessary for greats like Duncan, Garnett, Webber. PnR becomes a headache.
Gil losing his voice though lol 😂
Man Giannis has gotten better every year and also he is a NBA champion.
I love Gil’s honesty
😂 11:22
Rashad: We went under
Gil: I know…that’s why he bust yo ass
4:32 My boy McCants wit da fire Gil impression lmaoooo
This is one of the best eps
When Gill did the Jordan fade 😅
If you think about it hard enough. Do you really think that Michael Jordan would pick Scottie Pippen over Larry Bird in his starting 5?
He should
Dame picked Giannis as his player he’d love to team up with in 2022. So this makes no sense from Dame tbh
Yes he would pick Scottie he always pick Scottie
Back in 92 Jordan was literally asked this and he didn't pick Pippen and at that stage they won a ring together
Jordan gave his starting five and he chose Magic, himself, Scottie, James Worthy and I think Olajuwon. So yes, he does pick Scottie
I can’t stand Rashad but that was a hell of a Gil impersonation he had me rolling
Where is the guy who stood to the left of Gil ? Don't know his name, but he had a really really cool vibe, didn't speak much, but was actually meaningful when he opened his mouth. Bring him back please !!! This show is gold. I love Gil and I also love the guy standing to the right of the guy with the laptop (both OGs). Also bring more often the shorty who plays WNBA, she's cute and kind of well spoken.
McCants is so insecure. Notice how he stopped wearing the crown after Nick Young got at him😂
Gill kills me with the crossed legs and phone scrolling. All he needs is some reading glasses sitting on the tip of his nose as he looks up at McCant singing stat man stat man.
15:00 Lool Gil you can't be that aggressive saying '89.
Just send that man to Miami already
"He played him twice" Gil cooked McCants ideas on Bron in one sentence lmao
It hit different not taking my championship teammate 😂
gannis has been finishing better around the rim this year for sure
Jordan's fade away came with Phil Jackson and tex winters and the triangle, and to isolate himself more because of the beating he was taking from Detroit, but not often used. It was perfected and used far more the second 3 peat when he got much stronger
Comprehension skills are poor in America! They said DREAM!!!! Giannis is his reality!
uhmmmm rlly?
Gil's got a point. Comparing Giannis to Shaq doesn't quite fit. Shaq stayed in the paint unless he was setting screens. Giannis, on the other hand, hangs around the perimeter and plays facilitator. His weak shooting gives the defense an edge to roam freely.
If Giannis could shoot better, it'd open up space and create opportunities for teammates, making him a better facilitator. Plus, if the defense doesn't collapse when he drives, it's an easy 1-on-1 situation. Better spacing means better looks, rhythm, and a deadlier offense overall.
As the team's best player, Giannis should have a solid mid-range and respectable three-pointer by now. He could learn from great shooters, but too often players stay one-dimensional until it's too late. LeBron's focus on athleticism alone would have led to a decline much sooner and steeper.
I hear u bro but with all that muscle it's gonna be a lil hard. Dude is averaging 31pts & 6ast on 60% still and is 29yrs old.... He still got time in the league.
The crazy part about this is when Giannis catches it in the post and uses his triple threat moves and footwork I swear it always seems like the easiest bucket for him but he doesn’t want to post up I guess.
@@basmilli4438 You're not wrong but you want to begin adding those different things to your bag way before you begin declining, in fact, you want to start adapting your game early so when that physical decline happens you're already comfortable with a solid in-between game, you can step out, now you're a complete threat and can choose when to turn it on and drive instead of that being your only option.
Look at Westbrook for example, imagine if he really mastered his jumpshot while in his prime instead of it being streaky, do you know how scary Westbrook could be even right now. He's not as athletic as he once was but he's still very athletic, now imagine him with an in between game like Kobe who can also step out. Right now he'd be a top 2-3 PG and a top 10-15 player.
@@jamesonedwardsii4943 He naturally has those gifts, he just needs to consciously start now and work on it relentlessly, the earlier he adapts using triple threat moves, up and unders, becoming deadly from mid, his last stretch of his career will be graceful and extended.
LeBron is nowhere near as athletic as he once was but it's hidden because he does so many other stuff and then saves those "reverse the clock" moments for when the opportunity presents itself, because he doesn't have to force the issue every time people can't tell he's declined a lot athletically whereas with someone like Westbrook who was driving damn near every play due to being a poor shooter, it really exposed his athletic decline and he became easy to guard, actually an offensive liability. They'd just let him shoot threes all day. Giannis doesn't want to become that liability.
Sitting on the couch trying to tell an nba mvp how to play basketball is crazy. Typing 10 paragraphs is even worse.
Giannis currently shoots 61.6% from the field. Averaging 30.8 ppg. Only thing he needs to improve is free throw shooting
Keeping that midrange jumper and hook shots consistent also. And that's it!
He don’t shoot 🤣🤣🤣
96 when mj developed the fadeaway? so MJ really only faded away for 2 years? McCantz be saying some dumb shit
First time the cast got Gil
On a topic
Lovin Gilbert Arenas these days on these platforms. Dudes Personality was custom made for social media.
This was actually a really good podcast and well balanced
Not sure what podcasts you've been watching. The main guy here doesn't have a clue on the topics of the podcast. And the podcast is based on debates, but the camera is set up to only focus at one host at a time, and you can't tell how the others react. Why would anyone fund or support a podcast, that has it's main elements failed this badly.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Rashad kept saying we going under making gill hot they faf
Oh wait. So Giannis DID get better by learning, Rashad? SO, by that same logic, watching film WOULD help him get better NOW. 🙄
Yes but Gil was making the argument that got his hasn't learned hasn't improved at all
If he got better without watching film why the hell does he need it now???
@@billjames1216to get even better than that ??? Lol
He learned the game from experience and not films sure enough he will learn the game even more the more he continues to play not watching stupid films
@@billjames1216so you think he’s gonna be better by not watching film?😅
"That phone died, all his answers gone" 😂😂😂
Damn Norris Cole is a great addition. Brilliant.
Shaq never needed to shoot just like Giannis doesn't need it , Michael jordan is smaller than Giannis he needed a jumper
we need a Norris Cole podcast frfr. This brotha knows his hoops
Mike developed the fadeaway to enhance his game in the late 80’s. He put on weight so he could absorb the contact in the paint after losing to the Pistons but he was still going to the paint. If some of you didn’t watch it’s ok but at least do your research.
As far as the Jordan fade thing, he developed that earlier in his career and then leaned on it heavily in the mid to late '90s. All we have to do is go to his highlights on CZcams to see it. Sometimes it feels like McCants is only there to provide an argument for everyone to go at.
I like dame and then I don’t sometimes odd feeling for that brotha
Why can’t gill just give anyone he doesn’t like any credit at all
Giannis “I just, in general, do not watch basketball,” Antetokounmpo said. “So, stats, highlights, how people play, I have no idea, and I love it. I love it when I go to the game and have no idea who I’m playing and what they do.”
Giannis also said that he intentionally lies in public to throw his opponents off. He doesn’t want anyone knowing what he does. It gives him an edge……
Rashad High as Hell.....My dawg on that good weed
That’s my friend 😂 idc who the best player in the gym. Imma pick my friend everytime .
Dame forgetting to pick his actual co-star isn't a good look.
Then you don’t want to win then
Shaq actually did develop a turn around shot that he would make consistently. It was like a one handed turn around off the back board shot.
Bam at 5 you know dame smoking that crack.
Yall funny ah ah ahhh ahhhhh 😂😂😂😂
Stat man stat man kills me😂
Gil is truly a WiiiLD bouh... I love it. These cats really do know their basketball. Their IQ for the game is real and better than the other so-called analyst because they played the game.
Good Debate 🔊🔊🔊👍🏾✨✌🏾🏀
lol Gil is just talking to talk. Look at Giannis stat line for each year. That’s it. It’s going by what was said instead of the evidence. Come on man lol
He probably just forgot about it. He was probably asked this question a dozen times before he even get to Milwaukee. And Giannis drafted Dame in his allstar line up before Jrue, he can't say shit.
Lmaoo gyatt mccants might be a free agent after that blasting from gil
Jordan starting shooting the fade away during the '89-'90 season because he was getting pummeled going to the basket against Detroit.
"I don't even like doing pick n roll with you right now" 😂😂😂
Gil really comes off as someone that'd be really hard for you to befriend
Lol so true. I watch these videos thinking... I know I couldn't be around bro for too long 😂
And he good at what he do so they don’t catch him up on alotta bs he say or questions he ignore lmao
🕶️🤏🏾📠
Niggas love em tho so idk but you could be right lol
Truth tellers don’t have many friends
He hates Milwaukee this just proves it more who has been traded from a team they wanted out of and not even halfway through the season he talking about wanting to end his career in Portland.
Immediately agree w/ Gil like who cares 😂 what his 5 gotta do w/ loyalty or emotions
0:50 no Gil not because they teammates, because he a top 3 player in the league rn
