Accept that it was a shitty comparison and move on. grin. From the actual post, certainly, talent wasn't the only quality in the picture, even though you make it seem like one. The only way that comaprison can be looked at in the first place is if it's on on who's more talented/who's achieved more at this point. Accept that was moot and move on. Very simple stuffs. grin. You can certainly tell us AD is better skilled but Giannis has achieved more or leads better without bringing Messi/Ronaldo in. And miss me with the transformer bullshit. Don't run away.

You may want to be careful about your take on KD. It's quite complicated. Without Kyrie or James Harden, the Brooklyn Nets weren't good. Just a Superstar and some decent role players. The Bucks on the other hand were a Superstar+ 2 All-stars, with one of those two occasionally dropping superstar numbers.The problem is how to judge the contribution of Kyrie and James Harden. Some would say that although he had one other Superstar of 6.5 of those 7 games, one of them played through recovery, others like yourself would say, nope, he couldn't get it done, half-an-inch of his shoe away from the ECF or not. grin. We may have to wait till next season. Take it easy on KD abeg.
steady986:
No be only KD. KD was with MVP calibre Westbrook for several seasons yet nothing to show for it. When his sidekicks went down in the Bucks series it was one superstar apiece on either team. Yet Giannis prevailed. There's no proof whatsoever that KD would have led this Bucks team to a championship.

As for your comments on AD, he was injured, and that's just the bottom line. It's unfair to cast judgement on a player when he barely even had a chance to prove himself.

Are you alright? grin. Which kind of useless comparison is this? You better shut up if you know want make we knack plank for your head. cheesy
joshboo:
I tipped the bucks to win the series even with Kyrie and Harden fit. I kuku said it before that AD is way more talented as compared to giannis but AD hasn't shown he has the capacity to lead to team to a championship, this is with his fitness issues aside now,i don't see him as one who pushes himself to that level of wanting to become the best, he thrives more on his natural capabilities. Make I put am like this
AD= Messi
Giannis = Ronaldo.

Both are good but one always plays and seem to want it more which is Giannis. Hopefully Lefraud retires soon or AD goes on to be the number 1option on a team again, we'll see how far he can lead a team.
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 1:44am On Jul 22, 2021
There was a time we debated the AD/Giannis issue here when even bringing up Giannis in comparison to AD was strangely an insult to the person of AD. I suppose we are past that now. cheesy grin

40stradamus has been preaching the gospel of Giannis since Day 1 cheesy
Sports › Re: The NBA Begins by benji93: 1:41am On Jul 22, 2021
So the question is what percentage of greatness goes to mental toughness? Surely greatness doesn't come only from talent/skillset.
steady986:
I agree 100%. And that's why AD might never be the alpha on a championship team. But based on skillset, AD is on another level.

AD vs Giannis is kind of like the LeBron vs KD comparison. One is extremely skilled especially in putting the ball in the basket while the other is just a flat out Dawg and a leader. That's why KD has never been considered better than Bron in this league even though he had the skillset to be better. We've seen that he needs someone to be the leader while he just does his thing lowkey. Even in OKC he was clearly the best player but Westbrook was the alpha, even finishing higher in MVP rankings a couple of times when they were together.

I sincerely hope he has that under control. Stuffs like this should be properly discussed before you get down, even though it's not that simple.
Khanben:
His ties with Greece strong no be small. I can definitely see him moving there after his career. The only thing that can hinder that IMO is his partner who will add another dimension.

Maybe this will encourage him to stay with the Nets for the rest of his career. That's something, isn't it? cheesy grin

I dey sure say KD dey em parlour dey look Giannis like "damn ,this dude really led a team to a championship" grin

This opportunity will very likely never present itself again. It lifts that Burden off Giannis. There's no reason not to stay with the Buck's all your life. cheesy grin

Ahah, you don cause wahala? How did i miss it? cheesy grin
joshboo:
Omo no hard feelings, whatever happens or is said on this thread stays on this thread.

With the othani saga, same with Giannis n other foreigners coming to dominate them on home soil it's always hard for them to accept that reality so they stir us nonsense controversies and all to pass their message.

I obviously don't take those guys seriously, only a fool would tbh cos it's absurd their takes on so many things in that ESPN. Them dey leverage on the exclusive rights to games to continue being irrational.

Lefraud haa done really well for himself between my love for him asides jis greatness na because we be birthday mates, but ESPN pushing one yeye agenda that he'll be the goat once he wins one more ring is preposterous.

The sole ring dirk won is greater to me as compared to all rings LBJ has won & the rings KD be win.

grin grin mk we see who chief assembler go wan recruit to LA next season again.

Why is it so hard for you to learn? I didn't think people still make such an argument. People look at individual accolades, then championships, especially when the difference between two players with respect to individual achievement is not that significant. In this generation, the only player whose individual awards can be placed against Messi's is Ronaldo and vice versal. I do not know where the Giroud example came from. Shame on you. grin grin
LostMyZeal:
If Messi and Pele are goats then CR7 is the lord of all goats

cheesy cheesy cheesy

A significant number of the goals Pele scored na offside goals... abi no be that Pele una dey talk about huh

So, because pele won 3 world cups....just like thathuh


Ok...Giroud is a World Cup winner and Messi isn't. So Giroud is better than Messi. Hahahahaha....even Martial seff.


Much rules didn't guide football in Pele's days. So, respectfully, I disagree with the myth that Pele's the greatest.

The Goat ish is definitely about two individuals that have seen over a decade of rivalry at the top top level. Now that's professionalism, continuity and consistency rolled into one.

Don't come and be calling cocaine-guzzling Maradona and offside scoring Pele among goats abeg. That's for comic relief.


Cristiano Ronaldo is the GOAT not that one that made winning Copa America his life's mission. Can you imagine that joke cheesy cheesy cheesy


Abeg make una rest oh. Else we'll be forced to unveil a skeletal assessment of Messi and CR7 over the past decade or so and then y'all will see Messi for the fraud he is....#NuffSaid

Lool....LM10 boys finally out of their shells cheesy cheesy

FYI. Winning Copa only gave messi the recognition to get into the debate. Prior to that, there was never a debate.

A GOAT that struggles at club and country level. Are you kidding mehuh Or you want me to roll out crispy photos of your goat's UCL disappointments ..


Don't even get me started on how your goat won 2009 and 2011 UCL by fraudulently cheating Chelsea and R.Madrid in collaboration with Guardiola angry


Messi and Pep are frauds and no, that's not a speculation. Or you want me to remind you how your goat was busy blaming the grass, referee and all other flimsy excuses he gave.

Y'all better don't let me dust up my case files on Messi and Pep ooh.


They're great frauds tongue tongue
