Yea he seems like a bum to me, but it's interesting to see Laker fans making the same mistake hyping up Kuzma off summer league and preseason

This thread came sooner than I thought but from a development standpoint, Ingram hasn’t shown the type of growth you’d want from a lottery pick let alone the #2 pick.

I just don’t see the mentality needed to be great with him right now. The consistent dominance in one or two areas of the game. He doesn’t have a nitch and that can be the thing that halts his progress. He can change that this season tho.

I think that term should be reserved for once in a lifetime level athletes, LeBron/Shaq/Rose, etc...unless you want to argue Goannis is on that level. He's a great athlete and his length is incredible but im not putting him on that tier.

One signatute aspect of a FREAK athlete is the ability to be unstoppable in the half court. Rose, Shaq, Bron...not really shyt you can do to them in the halfcourt cause they are that physically dominant. We really havent seen that from giannis. Again he is a very good athlete but when I hear freak athlete I think generation like athletic ability. Like Peterson in his prime running through loaded boxes coming off ACL surgery.

Giannis is more of a freak athlete than anyone you named minus Shaq. To be that size, with that coordination, speed, etc is incredible. He's universally known as the greek freak breh. He's the definition of a freak athlete. KD is also a freak athlete as well.

I though the nickname was due to his freakish wingspan. And Gianni's is nowhere near a better pure athlete than Rose or Bron imo...or Peterson. These are dudes with 40+ verticals and top 1% explosiveness. Gianni's is just not that level of athlete. Giannis is a freak athlete to normal folks but in the scope of other professional athletes
