I can’t really think of any. Maybe lebron because the media overhyped him. Still, he’s one of the best players ever so you really can’t knock him

I think greek is still a superstar. Hes just a go to scorer. He needs another guy that can score in certain moments. They also font use him right. They should get him the ball in the low post more in the half court set. Get him off the perimeter

Good question. I think the problem Milwaukee has with Giannis is they try to play him exactly like Lebron. He should have a PG that allows him to finish plays, not initiate them.

It's hard to be 6'10 and move and slither like KD.

He's good in the regular season but trash in the playoffs

Overreactions. He had 29/14, including 11 fourth quarter points last night. People are talking as if he went 11/5.

He was turning the ball over everytime he touched it in the 4th too. You can’t just ignore that. This was a winnable game for the bucks

True but the pendulum has swung to ridiculous levels of him being a fraud, a fake superstar, etc. We get overreactions all the time. LeBron was "washed up" about two weeks ago, for example. He has went 35/9/9 in three games since then. :lol

I can't think of a single superstar that wasn't actually a good player.

kyries really good but the some in the media treat him like a superstar when he's a star who has a few top ten years so far. Yea he had a great scoring finals where he outplayed curry for a series, has happened to other non superstars like joe dumars.

He's just a go to scorer?

Wut?

Go to scorers are the best form of scorers, what do you mean by that?

We know how much you've praised his defense, so you cant be refering to his overall game by 'just' either.

If anything, op retardedly acts as if the greek freak is way much worse than t-mac, a superstar that often had his worst nightmares in every playoff he plays.
