[@kambam172]

Jimmy definitely a hall of famer in my opinion. Jimmy as an individual, considering as a basketball player, has been nothing but spectacular. I mean when he was in the bulls he was their best player competing against bron. He went to the wolves and lead them to the playoffs. Gets traded to sixers and was pivotal in their success to the ECF. If it wasn’t for Kawhi’s game winner they would’ve made the finals. Finally he ends up in Miami and in the bubble he takes the lakers to 6 in the finals whilst being the best player and leading them to it. He nearly done it with Miami last season. Through out his career his accolades speak for themselves I mean all defense and all Nba? Plus a most improved play alongside a couple of all stars… jimmy’s legacy is still being written and I hope he can get a ring.

[@TruthDissident]

No doubt. If he ever gets a Joel Embiid type co-star he'll win a chip.

[@f0xx32]

It's already sad that Harden is seen as a better player than Butler. Not even close

[@1zxtv]

I mean it's kinda hard to quantify at times. Harden is without a shadow of a doubt more talented, a far more elite scorer, a great distributor, ball handler all that or at least when he was more in his prime but in the playoffs he doesn't show up. How do you measure and compare players in that regard? It always changes but if we're talking a better individual player, when both are at their best Harden is objectively more skilled.

[@cameroncorbin6952]

James has had one of the great regular season careers ever. Jimmy has had some great playoff moments.

[@michaelhession2105]

Keep going. They have no picks for 5 years, no top prospects, no cap space, and have a ton of free agents including Middleton, and Lopez. I think it's safe to say that this it for Giannis as a Buck. He's either retiring or joining Dame or Steph.

[@hemantjain6679]

​@Michael Hession Giannis isn't leaving. He is starting to establish a family here and embraces the city. I think they have Jrue and Portis as well as Pat for another year or two. They need a better SF. Middleton hasn't been great all year and I had a feeling his injuries were gonna cost the Bucks this year. I agree Bud needs to go and I am also sure Middleton needs to go. They have focused so much on defense the last couple of years but don't have enough offense. They need a better SF and possibly a better shooting guard. I am worried for the Bucks future as well since they have no real options unless someone is willing to come play with Giannis and Jrue but nobody wants to come to Milwaukee. They gonna win tomorrow but lose Friday. Then it will be very interesting what happens since they need more help for Giannis as the window is closing and closing fast.

[@TAHJ1987]

I agree with the Jimmy take...I don't know about the giannis take...he has some very nice accolades so far...but to say he will be go down top 10..I don't know about all that..no order. .I mean kobe..bron..mj...magic..bird...duncan..shaq...hakeem..wilt...steph...I mean giannis has to accomplish so much more to be in the conversation with these guys...I say top 20...

[@mconner262]

What confuses me is that Gainnis has a great team. He has great players in Middleton and Holiday. He's been named the best player in the NBA for about 5 years now but season after season he's a 1st or 2nd round exit. Despite one year he won where most of the stars on the other team were injured. I think it's time we light the fire that he's not as impactful as everyone says. Some players are made for the regular season, and some are made for thr post season.

[@crzycolchris]

He's a good dude.. but I just cant make him the top player in the league without a consistent jump shot.. how do people keep saying he's better than Durant? he has more force.. that's it!
