These NBA Players Act Like the Mean Girls in High School Against Giannis

[JackRoss]

Giannis don't be calling these nikkas "Big Bro" and hang with them outside of basketball.

He chill in Greece with his real bras

I been thinking it all series tho. How is Giannis All-Defensive First Team over PJ Tucker if PJ is the one the team has guard KD?
And don't forget PJ is the one the team puts on KD despite PJ being like 6" shorter and Giannis being the literal perfect height and length matchup for KD? PJ must be a WAY better defender to make up for that, right?
Make it make sense

you can’t be serious with this post

Wrong messenger but CJ is right. I been said how can u be the DPOY and 3 time 1st team all D and not spend anytime on your counterpart? That’s just straight SUS…KD himself guarded Giannis way more than the other way around. Bryn Forbes spent more time on KD than Giannis..

 

[Dr. Narcisse]

CJ might be the lamest nikka in the nba

Now he's not wrong, but he's lame as hell.

Sounds like he found the winning formula

Giannis ain’t thinking about none of them nikkas. Only players i’ve ever heard him give more than cursory respect to is Bron and KD.


He ain’t part of the in-crowd and doesn’t want to be. Dude only wants to ball & hang out with his brother

Go along get along gang ass nikkaz

 

[Mindfield333]

Giannis don't fukk with none of these NBA nikkas, which is why I think he gets some hate from them. He ain't friendly with none of them nikkas outside of his teammates if that.

Is it hate tho? I think the fact giannis don’t hang out makes it easier to be objective. I too was wondering why he didn’t check KD at some point… but they got w

Bro these awards are regular season awards that encompass everything that has happened in the span of 72 games...hell Tucker was on the Rockets for a part of the year off the radar.

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Cats don't fukk with Giannis

Folks don't respect his game

PJ's role in that series was to guard KD. Nobody is going to stop an all time great scorer, but make him earn points and expend energy.

Strong player with low center of gravity, lateral quickness and good defensive instincts is going to give you a halfway decent shot of that, and keep your star player out of foul trouble. (and remain in position to rebound the ball)

That airball 3 by KD was because of the minutes he played and the defenders they threw on him.

CJ a fukking lame. That nikka talk too much with his non all star ass

He’d be nice as fukk on the Lakers tho

Do I think PJ Tucker is a better defender than Giannis? Probably not
Do I think it makes his All Defensive First Team placement look silly as fukk? 100%
PJ Tucker fouls out the game in OT, Giannis is not in foul trouble, so why the hell is Khris Middleton the next guy you put on KD and not Giannis still?

 

[LV Koopa]

shyt is crazy they not even trying to hide the dislike like other players do. It's like Giannis the New kid in school and they mad/jealous he has the attention.









And after the bucks won, none of them had nothing to say

That's not even hate. If you 1st Team All D and not checking a GOAT level scorer that's a bad look. Cats just make all kinds of excuses for Giannis that other player's don't get. Doesn't mean these dudes hate him or some shyt you don't play in the league so stop trying to read into it.

Guarding KD

Giannis made the defensive play of the year in game 4 on Kyrie that is the sole reason the Bucs advanced.
