Giannis dude, he led a team with no other all stars to no 1 seed. His numbers are also the 2nd most impressive after Harden. If Harden only had last year's nos I would actually want Giannis to win this year's MVP given his stats and team record.
Atlanta wasnt this good cmon give Giannis the credit he is due. Harden's stats also took a massive jump when MDA became coach doeent mean Harden doesnt deserve his glory. Budenholzer isnt the one scoring 27 pts 12.5 rebs and 6 assists on the court.
Man this was a close one. I picked Giannis. Both are bad shooters, but at least Giannis doesn't rely as much on flopping/refs as Embiid does.
Too bad health has to be part of the equation, you cant be that tall and athletic without any issues (see Yao Ming).
The Coach has setup thew system and the team where Gianis is dominant. Embiid can play on any team and get the same numbers Giannis may get there he is not there now. Embiid has got it all Mid range handles 3 point range rebounding blocks low post dominance. Giannis on his side is a freak he literally could be like Wilt Chamberlain if he works on his game but his skills are limited
Close call, both are terrific players but in today's nba i'd probably take Giannis (also cause i can't really ignore injuries)...i think. Embiid is amazing but i still see him a bit as some sort of goof, i'm actually curious to see him in the playoffs this season.
He is a fake allstar due to the weak East its like when Jrue Holiday was an allstar you can't reall say AD was playing with an allstar now can you. You get guys like that voted in all time like Brad Miller, Mehmet Okur and Roy Hibbert you don't remember these players as all stars. As good as Budenholzer is, its still an accomplishment the Bucks got 1st seed and Giannis has a lot to do with that considering he is averaging 26 12 6 on 50% FG.
Yeah but Embiid can only play for like 4 more years you know he is gonna have a career ending injury sooner or later. Plus he misses so many games. Health is a large part of greatness otherwise Yao Ming should be the Goat you have a 7'6 center who can shoot 3s and 87% on fts he is pretty much the most dominant player in the history of the nba (when healthy). Not only that as Embiid is a big man you can take him out with enforcers. For example you get Bogut or Zaza Pachulia to give him 5 hard fouls as Embiid is going for the reb and he is done for the night. Oth nobody can really keep up with Giannis and he is built like a tank and should be able to shrug hard fouls like its nothing.
lol atlanta had like 4 all-stars the year coach bud won coty for the hawks and i think they won 60 games
Giannis is the more versatile player, but because he plays on the perimeter, if he does not develop a perimeter shot, he becomes more of liability in playoffs than Embid. I would still take Giannis though I think. He disrupts team offense on the perimeter and interior with his defense.
Can’t be a fake all star when you’re an all star. Just saying. I’ll leave this here. I’d want Giannis too though.
