Giannis is insanely physically gifted, and has some really nice ability for such a young/raw player. He has a chance to be a game-changer on both ends of the court for sure.

I remember feeling that same way about AK in 2002. If The Greek Freak can be mentally tougher than AK, then the Bucks will be very very lucky.

 

[fishonjazz]

he spent the last 5 or so months in the US with a trainer working on his game every day, as per locke's most recent interview.

Good to know

 

[fishonjazz]

Why didn't he get more burn on such a bad team?

Good ?

 

[fishonjazz]

There is alot to like about giannis.

Who will be the better player in 5 years? Exum or giannis?

Since I don't know much about Exum, I can't answer, and I'm not sure anyone can, one thing I can say is that the Greek freak's potential is limitless.

We are told the Jazz have one of the strongest international scouting teams it would surprise me to see them having overlooked Gianni's. One thing that may have screwed this all up is Tyrone Corbin's love fest with trey Burke. Really impressed with the Giannis highlights, looked like a mirror image to Durrant only better defensively. But that is probably a small sample size to base any accurate judgment upon

Corbined again

This paints the picture of his rising draft stock and his affiliation with rich sheubrooks, the jazz international scout. Crazy details in this article.

I dunno, he's a very raw player, but you can really see how talented he is. I would have been real happy if we had drafted him.

Super raw but the kid has skills. He's a big kid too.

Yeah, now we wish we took Giannis. Actually, I didn't like giving up two picks to move up. I wanted Shroeder and Giannis. And I'm not alone. But Trey is clutch.

You are alone. Everyone wanted Burke.

I can't emphasize this enough.
