Pick 1. Most people laughed at AD>Giannis last summer. AD has proven he is a better player and winner this season.

AD has superhuman genius GM Pelinka by his side so comparison right now is unfair. Winning in the most winning franchise is only meeting the expectations.

A.D. is amazing. Dude is carrying trash to the finals. Wish he was on my team.

AD when he is on a roll is virtually unstoppable. Giannis, I think once you figure him out he’s done.

While I don't think AD could lead the Bucks to the regular season wins Giannis has, even in New Orleans AD was still playing at a high level in the playoffs. Until Giannis shows anything even close to how AD's performed these playoffs, it'd be hard to pick against AD right now

Last year I would've said Giannis, but he hasn't progressed and his weakness was exploited yet again in the playoffs. Davis can hit a damn jump shot. And that's what ultimately sets them apart.

Davis can score from literally anywhere. Giannis only does 360 spins or travels + elbows his way to the rim

Giannis is pretty clearly superior as the best player on a team. AD is a much better choice to go with someone like LeBron.

I feel like thats just because AD is a PF/C who needs someone to bring up the ball. Its tough for big men to lead without a proper guard.

AD hasn't proven anything

Lebron has proved again he can turn empty stats losers into temporary winners as long as they play with him.

Put AD on the Bucks instead of Giannis... its a lottery team. Giannis on the Lakers are in the same position (albeit wouldn't be as good of a fit... but LeBron wouldve found a way)

Hilarious you guys let winning with LeBron mean anything. Irving and Davis stans showcase unbelievably low IQ. Kinda cute

DEFINITELY not a lottery team. That Bucks team outside of Giannis is still very talented. Replace Giannis with Davis, and they'd comfortably make the playoffs as a top 5 seed in the weak East

Maybe

Maybe not. The point is that they're worse off with Davis while the Lakers don't miss a beat with Giannis

Davis isn't special, and he's not a beast

Lebron still has to be the main facilitator and defender af age 35... Giannis could take off a significant load in both areas and give you 25ppg next to LeBron

You stupid fvck. AD's having an unreal playoffs. Only players with a higher ppg in NBA playoff history is MJ and Iverson AND HES PLAYING DPOY LOL!!! This retard just said he'd be lottery in the East bahahahaha. You're so stupid.

Keep spazzing out little guy

Doesn't change the facts

Giannis > AD

same PPG, But Giannis gives you elite playmaking and defense

Lebron still has to carry a huge playmaking and defensive load because AD is soft. All his points are spoon fed except the few lucky jumpers he hits per game (which he only makes because his confidence is boosted by easy bird fed baskets)

If you put Giannis next to LeBron he would all of a sudden become a good jump shooter because his confidence would be through the roof

Giannis > AD

2 MVPs, and DPOY

AD is empty stats lottery loser, whose soft and injury prone

These are literal facts.

Quit downplaying your savior. A.D. is taking your trash team to the finals. Where were you guys last year without him?

Lakers fans are fukking insufferable.

Keep crying

LeBron still carries a huge PPG, playmaking, and defensive load because AD is soft

ADs points are spoon fed and easy to come by, which boosts his confidence enough to hit jumpers

Giannis would get spoon fed easy points and hit jumpers too. But with elite playmaking and DPOY defense... instead LeBron has to carry a huge burden in all areas next to AD

This thread is about Giannis (back 2 back MVP, DPOY) vs AD (career loser, soft, injury prone bitch)

Stay on topic

Well, he plays for a better team now. At least it was successful compared to playoff p being sent to the clippers.

The better question is: where were AD and Giannis without LeBron?

Giannis has now led two 60 win teams, won two MVPs, and won more playoff series than AD ever did in less than half the time.

AD was the man for 7 years and won 1 playoff series

Giannis accomplished more in 2 years (a lot more) than Davis in 7

AD has actual ball skills, Giannis has zero ball skills, no postup, jumper, footwork or finesse. I'd be hard pressed to call him a basketball player when 14 year olds at pick up are smoother than him.

giannis was playing in the lane 1 against 4.

Davis was played basically the whole night against Lopez who is less mobile.

Guard Holiday was playing against Bron.

Middleton had an easy night.. playing against a guard.

Bottom line if the Lakers meet the Bucks for the chip (bucks in 5)

AD is more offensively skilled but can't give you 60 games a season nowadays and prone to swings in production from game to game ( I don't know if that's an issue of health, competitive drive to be great EVERY NIGHT, low motor, or all of the above in some form). You generally know what you'll get from Giannis production-wise, can better impose his physicality on a team, and overall consistency makes him a better foundation to build around. If they swapped intangibles and health, it would be AD.

AD can’t carry a team as the main playmaker Giannis can. Give me Giannis. Giannis and LeBron on the same team wouldn’t even be fair

Another literal fact is that no AD, no playoffs. With AD, Finals and right now Lakers looking like the team to beat in the West. Without AD, 1st round sweep and first round exit, literally getting swept once he went down. But yeah, it's all about Bran amirite?

Giannis has a higher motor but is way less offensively skilled and not as great on defense although that's close.

If AD had Giannis or Westbrook motor he'd be the GOAT.

I meant to write 1st round exit and missing the playoffs/play-in when AD got hurt...and don't get me wrong wrong, LeBron was a great player and still shows some flashes but this Lakers team will go as far as AD takes them, unfortunately Bran fanbois like AlternativeAcc can't take his cawk out of their mouths long enough to see that.
