Nah, Giannis will still want to win championships for his legacy. Bucks dont have 2nd star and Middleton, Maker or Parker wont develop into that. He's def going to sign for another team.

Prob Knicks to make EURO BIG 3 of Greek Freek, Porzingis and Frank and leading Knicks to their first NBA title

Nah, if you say Embiid, that puts you into the same company as Skip Payless. Same thing that blowhard said, and Giannis took that as motivation.

Giannis is young, yet, he is only 23 and by the time the contract runs out, his legacy is only 26.

Bucks have plenty of time to capture the Golden Gate All-Star/All Pro Team with Giannis.

Look how muscular and big he looks in the cover photo, and how plain and thin his arms look in the video.

Exactly he's still more muscular and 2k still fails to accurately represent that in the game.

Hopefully, that doesn't bite me in years to come, lol, because we all know the stars have said this before.

Eh, maybe. I think European stars tend to stay in their first drafted place because familiarity means more to many of them.

With that being said, Kawhi Leonard and so many more past/future stars will have taught us all not to assume anything about athletes no matter how much crap they put out there about being loyal or what kind of narrative we want to apply to them.

I agree with that and that is why I mentioned something similar in my last sentence.

Yeah, narrative writing will never stop.

Donovan Mitchell looks so adorable right now, seems really happy in Utah. Let's see how things are in 4-5 years...

Speaking of which---Mitchell is for sure a future cover guy of some basketball video game.
