Why you do this to me for no reason
Julius > Jabari/Embiid right now
Giannis has played power forward in the last 3 games with Middleton/Snell on the wings, I honestly think the Bucks should draft one of the SFs and rock with Giannis at that position. They can no longer count on Jabari to be apart of their long term plans, and Thon looks like he will be their C for the future. It's such a matchup nightmare to have him there, there's maybe 2 PFs in the league that can guard him there (Dray/Davis) and even then it's not that great of a matchup because it pulls them out the paint.
@Gil Scott-Heroin what do you think

Giannis at the 4 negates a lot of his strengths. In small ball mode they can get away with it in spurts but it can't become a permanent thing until he gets about 20-25 pounds more added. If he follows even a KG-like trajectory he'll stay where he is for another 4-5 yearsGiannis has played power forward in the last 3 games with Middleton/Snell on the wings, I honestly think the Bucks should draft one of the SFs and rock with Giannis at that position.

@Gil Scott-Heroin what do you think
It's not really small ball when he's at the 4 though, he's almost the same size as Anthony Davis, and Thon is 7'1" so their frontcourt while skinny still has the length to be an issue. They are 3-0 with that lineup playing him with Snell/Middleton, and just recently the Clippers & Blake Griffin had no chance against him -
I think it magnifies his strengths, it pulls the opposing big out of the lane and no matter what they do their PF will have to come out and defend someone even if it's to hide that player on Snell.

So do we have to give the round mound of c00n his credit for being one of the first pundits to say Kawhi is the best player in the nba?

But it's Kawhi > Dray, all day
