Knew he was going to be a star since the 2018 playoffs, after so many people doubted him and made fun of Danny Ainge giving him a $100 mill Rookie extension

I never doubted him, and I'm so happy I never did :mjcry: :wow:

Coli started in 2012. Giannis drafted in 2013. Search for the receipts.
That’s what I’m saying to the first page posters.

I don’t remember a lot of rumble about skinny Giannis would become a monster. That was grade A scouting/drafting by the bucks. It’s hard with those international guys, we’ve seen so many flop.

This is part of the reason I wish we had SOHH Archives.


A lot of y’all talked MAAAAAD CHIT. Lol

Specifically - I remember a lot of yall said I was crazy when I told yall Draymond Green was gonna be a major factor in the Association.
Yeah, he was undersized as a Post Player but I argued so were Barkley and Rodman and he has that kind of fight in him. If he got to a team
like he had at State where he doesn’t have to be an everyday scorer he could win.

I’m a first page poster. You do know that every sports debate or argument happens in real life too, not just up here. Right? Dudes have real friends they kick it with. The Coli isn’t real life.

Nah I get it, here on the Coli I said Indiana would win in 7, but I swear I told my mans that OKC would win :unimpressed:

First I was joking but now it's just funny that you had a few thousand posts and had not mentioned Giannis a single time until like last year, yet you were one of his first supporters in the world outside of Greece.

Nah I wasn’t one of his first supporters in the world. I just knew he was gonna be nice, my real life friends didn’t think so. We saw him at a real life game together, and I could see flashes, but they said nah b

Also, I only have a few thousand posts in 13 years because I have a life outside of here. You in turn have 32,000+ over the same exact duration. That’s 28,000 more than me. Funny.

I didnt understand what made Charles Rogers (RIP) the clear pick over Andre Johnson. Like that shyt wasnt a discussion and it cant all be location. Same thing with Bosh and Darko minus the location obviously.
