People lose their shit over Bronny but not a peep about two of Giannis' brothers.

I wonder how many of them are self-aware enough to know. Probably zero.

It doesn’t get shoved in people’s face as much as the “first ever father son doing x,y,z in nba history!” factoids.

Because Giannis isn't Lebron?

I think I've heard Giannis speak like 6 times. Great player but...not the same.

Yes

All 3 of them started off with different teams. Thanasis was drafted by the Knicks a year after Giannis who had a pretty tame rookie season. Kostas was drafted by the Sixers, never played for the Bucks and has been out of the league for years. Alex signed with the Raptors, then was waived then signed with the Bucks. You could argue that the only reason Thanasis and Alex are still in the league is cause of Giannis but they had other teams validating they were legit NBA players. It’s a big difference.

All three suck, but let's not pretend like Bronny isn't an entire level below the two Giannis bros.

Bronny's career field goal % is under 33%. And that's in the easiest scoring era in the history of the sport. Even calling him a scrub would be a disgrace to scrubs.

Was Giannis' brothers drafted ahead of other players more deserving for the same team Giannis played for?

Neither situation is right but you'd understand why the Bucks would do this for a prime Giannis, the Lakers are doing it for a senior citizen who can't even suit up himself.

Huge difference. The fact that OP made this post to begin with is shameful enough.

They wouldn't be in the league without their brother. You're an idiot.

Everyone knows Bronny isn't close to an NBA player and was ONLY drafted because Lebron forced the Lakers to do it. It's completely manufactured.

Giannis' brother actually made on his own path to some extent initially before getting on the Bucks. Also he is like 6'9 and very athletic. Bronny looks like an unskilled, nervous cornerback on the court.

I'd bet Bronny has the worst advanced stats out of any player who has played at least 180 minutes on an NBA court. Dude literally sucked in college and has no upside :lol

Not at all, moron. Bronny got to the Lakers because of is father. Giannis' brothers got to the league because teams wanted Giannis or hoped for a 2nd Giannis. They did not make the league on merit. They are now all on the Bucks simply because the Bucks are trying to appease Giannis. They would not otherwise be in the league.

You have a double digit IQ.

Thanasis was drafted by another team the year after Giannis. Giannis put up 7/2/4 in his rookie year. He may still be in the league cause of Giannis, but he clearly entered on his own merit.

Same goes for the other two, one of which is not in the league anymore.

Another thing - while not the smartest move, thinking you're getting the 2nd Giannis is not a totally dumb conclusion and may be worth the gamble for a late pick. No one was thinking Bronny was the 2nd Lebron. :oldlol:
