Mafukkas so dumb to compare shyt like that. Lebron a idiot.

Giannis would not even be the same physical size in the 70s and would be comparable to the Black center super stars of that time.

He would have been a super star. Not no damm outerworld ass monster scoring 250. :mjlol:







Just like LeBron wouldn't have the cocktail of steriods he utilized in his career if he was in the 70s.:mjlol:





This why Jordan is sooooo far above this mafukka. This dude too busy being a social media influencer than winning rings. :mjlol:

Put him as is in the 70s and in many ways Giannis would be like a 7ft version of Dr. J. I'm talking grabbing the defensive board then going coast-to-coast for power slam dunks over anybody. He would inspire and expedite the evolution of big men the same way Julius did for wings and big guards. Would literally be a (greek) freak of nature out there (womp womp).

And yea, "only" avg 30ppg isn't an indictment bc you're not gonna score much more than that in this era unless you have a good/great 3ball and triple down on heliocentric ball... because defenses are literally designed to zone up/ load-up on your primary scorer to force the kick-out pass. Hence why scoring collectively as a team is easier (since positions 1-4 have a 3-ball) but only 2-3 guys actually average 30+.

Half of these dudes score 30 now do so because of foul baiting.


That is not happening in the 70s.


Correct me if I'm wrong.

I think great players from any era would adjust to wherever they were placed

Yeah and those adjustments would still net them very different outcomes, especially going back rather than forward.

Giannis can't even keep from traveling every other posession with TODAY'S rules, his adjustment to the 70's play and compeition like Moses Malone would not have him looking/playing the same way.

These hypotheticals are bs. Realistically he wouldn't even know what nba basketball is in the 70s. he'd be in greece playing rugby or some shyt.
Wasn't a single greek player in the league back then

The 30 also means something because he's second in league PPG to only Shai, who's about to win MVP. Especially, like you said in an era where guys shoot the 3 ball like they do. Steph even said it: Steph Curry Reveals Giannis Antetokounmpo's 'Skill' After Making History.

He likely would be 7ft Dr. J, which in his case is special because most 7 footers can't do what he does, because if they did guys like Rudy Gobert would be perennial MVP candidates.

But we all know LeBron is being hyperbolic and this is just another thread for arguments and guys to get to trolling.
