Giannis running a one-man fastbreak is probably the scariest thing in basketball.
Use to be Lebron now it’s Giannis
What about ben Simmons taking à 3
Nathan G Man Giannis is taller than Ben Simmons faster than Ben Simmons jumps higher than Ben Simmons and is stronger and heavier than Ben Simmons idk why people act like if Ben Simmons gets a 3 it’s over Giannis upside is higher
@@nathang2783 🤣🤣🤣
Rich Foster i mean the dammage ben does when he brick from deep are the most scaring things in the NBA
God I hope he stays healthy throughout his career.
rip drose 🙏
He will don't worry 😊
@@indraneelkarandikar3292 like Penny Hardaway? You never know man.
@@willzsportscards Let us hope all we can do is hope
@@indraneelkarandikar3292 Indeed! Another thought...the modern game has become so demanding...look at all these injuries. It will be interesting to see if Silver et al will weigh the cost/benefits and possibly shorten the season. We all know the owners want to maximize profits...but if you have guys like Durant and Klay going down like they did...that really, really dilutes your product.
Imagine being one of the 14 teams that didn’t pick him up in the draft lol
back then, he was a skinny kid whose game was completely raw and unpolished. nobody would have passed up a giannis that looked anything like this one up in the draft
It would hurt me later indeed
Especially the Mavs. Cuban went all the way to see him play, just to draft Olynyk. Though no one knew he'd be as godly as he is today.
In their defense, he was coming out of a no name league at 18. Just be glad you had scouts who were that diligent/thorough/lucky.
Farhad Sani GREEK LEAGUE ITS VERY VERY STRONG . It’s not NBA but it’s better than NCAA
And he's still got at least 10 years left in him!
probably even 18
He's 24
@@David_Lek yeah but unless he gets some type of shot his physical play will die out
Kd Newsome I mean look at Lebron
Cranker true
What I love the most about Giannis is that he manifested his destiny. Giannis wasn’t a top prospect out of high school or college. We didn’t track him for years before his nba debut. No one really thought Giannis could be this good. I think that’s the most amazing part. Everything you see this man do on the court is 100% the result of his hard work and determination. Giannis could have been that skinny kid he was when he was drafted and we wouldn’t have even looked at him as a good player. Many people don’t remember he was a part of the 2015 dunk contest. He was a completely different man back then but I would say he had a bad night and maybe that was his first time experiencing failure on a national stage. The pressure wasn’t huge for him to win the contest but I can see a lot of other players getting affected a lot more by a lot less. Giannis might be an athletic freak of nature but his mindset is his biggest weapon.
You're absolutely right. I couldn’t agree with you more.
This is just nothing but facts
It's that.. Mamba Mentality 💝🙏🏽 not saying he had it from the jump but you certainly see it instilled in him.

Facts
Bottom Line: He always destroys the Knicks
Doesn’t everyone? Let’s see him destroy the best teams in the western conference...
@@thedarkknight9153 he just did with the clippers
no one
Well...his team did. Giannis did well on fast breaks in the 3rd quarter and finished one of the worst +/- on the team. He had 5 teammates shoot 12/20 combined on 3s. That’s why they won. Giannis played okay but he wasn’t the biggest reason they won.
Not good enough excuses mate.
@@thedarkknight9153 or more like hes a threat so they played to stop him so his teammates got open threes
This dude was taken 15th overall in the worst draft I can remember
u can't really analyze a draft class till everyone is out of the league.
Far from the worst draft class, it has Giannis, Oladipo, Gobert, McCollum, and Adams, and draft was pretty deep. It was the projection, but all changed when Giannis became what he is now.
It was supposed to be the worst, but turned out to be one of the best in recent years.
no one expect him to be like that ... dude when he get drafted he is super thin like stick ..
idk 2006 was pretty weak
You know someone is great when he has a compilation of his career plays when he is still 24/25
Rose >>>>
And after only one year you have to cut 5 or 6 from the list to put new ones😂🤣
3:57 looks like killian mbappe
Ikrr
Who's here after psg knocked out bb from UEFA
@@weloveyoutecca3500 me
Little Taller maybe
@@jahnvansohn9906 yeah maybe just a little bit taller not much doe
Never seen a player like him. With that seize being able to play like this is insane. No stopping him this year. Gobert over him for dpoy its a joke. Gobert can't switch on guards like giannis who can guard all 5 positions and btw cooked gobert including a tasty poster. And mvp for sure
You cannot compare a perimeter defender with a interior defender. You cannot say for example, Scottie Pippen is a better defender than Mutombo because it's not the same kind of defense.
@@danb6451 did you not see his block on Nurkic? Giannis defends everywhere
@@danb6451 and yes i can say pippen was better defender than mutombo. And that even close as well.
@@danb6451 Scottie Pippen is a better defender than Mutombo. He can do it all, he's the greatest defender ever : that's a wrong example. Scottie can defend anybody 1-on-1 as we saw him lock Magic, Barkley, Ewing and so on. A better example of what you're trying to say would be "You cannot say for example, Gary Payton is a better defender than Mutombo" and indeed, that is tough to compare.

Buck's fastbreak is unstoppable when he's on the court
A H idk, the lakers could do some damage to them
@@neonicplays This didnt age well
@@AH-zp1bt That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard why would they trade for chris paul they have Bledsoe and george hill.
Owen S well, it was close. So I’m kinda right, but I can see where your coming from lol
Oh and don’t remind me lol
Trading cp3 is hard look at his contract
Most athletic basketball player i've seen. Plus he is humble. only an injury could hold him back from winning mvps.
not even an injury....... p.s. there is a new number one play
@@depptx2869im happy you updated us with your thoughts 2 years later
Greece is so proud of you Giannis!🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
3:47 defender is like "nah imma get outta here"
Hasn't seen a player this exciting since Jordon and Kobe
Nd lebron nd kd
Since they basically both faces of nba
How do you not know how to spell Jordan?
Massive Largie Army?
Rodney Davis zion
Steph before this
His alley-oop dunk OVER Hardaway Jr. is so underrated.. -_-
Champ Magat probably the best dunk ever in a real nba game, like vice carter was the only other player ever to jump over a player and dunk but it was in the an Olympic game, and that dunk was ranked number 1 of all time by the nba. So since he actually did it in a real game off of an alley oop, my man definitely has the best dunk of all times in a nba game no lie
will go as the nr 1 dunk in history of the game
I love the part where the announcer literally screamed like a high-school girl when the dunk was made.
liam, mega, leung.. cant argue with that,,
Its literally number 1 on this list lol
The expression of John McEnroe says it all. Giannis is a freak and what's amazing he's still developing his game
Brawl star
Totally agree ! The look on McEnroe's face says it all! WTF did I just see?
I’m calling it rn he will b the GOAT in 15 years
Thesimsboy kell that’s a fact
Unless luka does that first
Thesimsboy kell Facts 💯
Nobody passing Jordan
@@javiervazquez4002 ok sir
Imagine him going 15th in a draft
Looking back, I think it was alright. Giannis was super skinny back then.
Giannis was very raw when he got drafted. It was even considered a risk to draft him that high
@@SuperBram77 What does him being super skinny have anything to do with it?
He was just underweight, but still 18 and growing.
He always had a frame that could pack a ton of muscle.
It's not like Brandon Ingram or KD where it is clear they will struggle to put on weight.
Giannis was always very physical even when he was skinny.
What made him a risky pick was how raw his technique was.
He was taken purely based on potential because of his ridiculous physical tools.
imagine danny ainge traveled all the way to athens and then 300km by taxi to see freak playing and then selected olynik.
Left or right so strong! Westbrook and the freak!!!!!!!!! LeBron? I mean Lebum!!!! strong also in flooppppinnnnngggg! Jajaja lol!
GIANNIS TRAILING THE LOOOOOOB!!!!!!!!!!
GIANNIS ANTENTOKOUNMPO FROM CRHIS MIDDLETON!!!

How many MVPs will win Giannis Antetokounmpo?
👇🏻
Xristos 23 I’m only liking because Giannis is the goat
@@markipleur I am from Greece but Lebron is the GOAT
Xristos 23 Nah
3-4 he's still so young
Im thinking 6 in all honesty
The NBA making a video about Giannis on his birthday is such a wholesome thing.
Watching this clips hit different when you're greek
Also if you're a Nigerian.
@Giorgos Gerakakis Wow.. someone took this personally. Let him be proud bc he´s obviously nigerian. If Gianni wouldn´t be this famous u wouldn´t even consider him as a greek. So please..
@Giorgos Gerakakis lmao why are you so hurt bro???😂
Even Giannis knows he’s Nigerian...
What’s wrong with you bro?😂
He’s only greek by birth...his blood is 10000000% Nigerian...😂
y’all claiming a black man cause he’s successful 😁
@Giorgos Gerakakis ofcourse greek is all he knows....
but he’s Nigerian as fuck😂
That’s what that dude’s trying to say...
And Nigerians love their own...
@Giorgos Gerakakis wtf bro im greek but giannis obv is nigerian. He is a greek citizen. Also it's true that if he wasn't famous we wouldn't even consider him greek
He is awesome. He come from poor beginnings in Greece, now on 25million a season with bucks . I am happy for all his brothers, mother and father.
Absolutely the most exciting player I have ever watched with my own two eyes
Facts
Happy Birthday Giannis Antetokounmpo 👌🏽. One day , you will be one of the best player ever .
He already is
5:17 Andre Drummond's reaction 😂😂😂
Giannis really be catching body’s every other games
I got to see the Bucks play my Pels a few years back, (back when Bucks weren't one of the dominant teams). Went to go see young Giannis. Me and my buddy got better seats than we normally did, because they were cheap. We ended up getting 5th row (I've sat closer, but not back then).
Been to over 100 NBA games, watched NBA all my life.... so clearly, I understand that basketball players... are big.
But Giannis. My god. It was literally insane to see him up close. 6'11 and moves like a guard. It's one thing to see it on TV, but seeing dude in person is really like "Woah".
Never know NBA accepts aliens in the league.
Let his career finish, you'll get like 1000+ plays to put on top 25.
And you will be confused which one to put in video xD
Once in a generation player. Im glad to have witnessed a living legend
MVP🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
Agree, but he’s not Greek.
@@krasnaludek298 he is greek
Krasnaludek and giannis where came from? It’s a Greek name and his mother is from Greece
@@j1makoss__334 Is family is from Nigeria
@Γεώργιος Γερακάκης oh please Greece didn’t even grant him citizen till he was 18 and boy because he was extremely talented. Y’all treat immigrants like shit.
5:56 What I was waiting for the whole time 🔥🔥🔥
It sounds like a click
He's the only ghostbuster that can catch Jordan.
since lebron already passed mj, sure her can be the second
@@A_Tyson Troll
Nobody will EVER catch MJ!!!
Atanime - Piano in your dreams! You must be 15 years old!
@@soham9821 you are just too bostalgic about mj, he is the second best but in a 1v1 mj would stand no chance and he is way to selfish. Lebron is allaround the better, more reliable and more freakish player than mj. Does he have to killerinstinct ? No but he has everything else that is more important that this so called instinct
All time great in the making!!
Tony you know that’s true
For a guy who’s never even been to the finals, that is a VERY bold statement. He has to win 4 championships before he’s even in the discussion.
jarnontop.link/6mrsWuOPdDsr
The Dark Knight iverson,Stockton,Malone,Reggie Miller,Steve Nash , the list goes on never won a championship but are considered all time greats
@@thedarkknight9153 You dont consider LBJ a all time great? 🤣
Happy Birthday Giannis!
OMG Gianni Greece is so happy with your talent i wish you all Good and i Hope cou can Make greece happy
Greek Freak Agree, only he is NOT Greek, except documents (paper). Take DNA test & we can see - only truth; not being hate - he is good player.
He is Greek, because He plays well, He is a Nigerian,whenever He makes mistake.
@@krasnaludek298 Ηe was raised in Greece by Nigerian parents, and he went to a greek school and speaks greek and knows and enjoys the greek culture... So he is Greek! He is what he wants to be, and he wants to be Greek, so he is Greek! Your argument is invalid dude...!
Οσοι είναι Ελληνές και το βλέπουν να κανουν 👍 Μπραβο Γιαννη!!!!!!!!!!👏👏👏
I’m early lol, Giannis the GOAT makes another video appearance
Unlike Harden highlights, Giannis are both offense and defensive highlights.
@MortalKombat FanESP I'm here to talk basketball or whatever topic it is. Why would I want to see a Mortal Kombat video?
Giannis gives me goosebumps every single time I watch him 🙆
Greece Love you
Giannas is so incredible. i watch his highlights often & follow him every game. he just kills everytime. he is so exciting to watch, really would love to see the Bucks win a Championship with him
Happy birthday Giannis 🐐
Gonna tell my kids this freak was a ✈️
5:13 that switch from dunk to bringing it back down to a shot reminds me of '91 Jordan vs. the Lakers.
Great call Brother: I can hear Marv Albert's call: "That was a spectacular move by Giannis"
Giannis loves the Knicks..long time..
But recently has developed feelings for the Pistons too!!!
Happy birthday albatross.
MVP I hope this season and a championship..
Is not fair for the other players, he can fly!!!
He's my inspiration
Giannis games gets soo hyped
this needs to be updated asap
his career plays will remembered as history someday
He flew threw the roof on that last one.. 😮
0:25 idk why but the commentators are amazing here
Giannis is one of the best players I nba I love him !💪💪
My god this guy is a beast. I can't decide who is more fun to watch Luka or him and i'm slovenian lol.
I'm from Greece but behind Giannis , Luka and Curry are my other 2 favorites to watch
By the time he’s done with his career, he will be in conversation with LeBron, MJ,Kareem and KD.
B.B.J. I dot think Jordan.., lebron , KD and Shaq I do believe
I think he will be better
@@javiervazquez4002 u think shaq is a better center that Kareem? Tf?
Such a great compilation. And yet, it needs to be updated...
Tolles Video !
While everybody else in the league is walkin' or or riding a bike, this man is flying 1st class.
“He really is a freak”
Good summary
Giannis🐐🐐
Giannis is about to be the greatest of all time
I like how the announcers don’t really acknowledge that he jumped OVER the defender in the #1 play. Guy in the hat acknowledged it.
6:16 summarizes all our reactions after watching this
God bless this talented guy
Love this guy
"He's a 6'11 version of Westbrook" lol
THE GREEK BASKETBALL GOD
He is from Africa, Nigeria. He is our son. Correct yourself.
Yo listen to me he was born and raised in Greece. his name Greek, his native language is Greek, he dowsnt know Nigerian or whatever... He went to Nigeria for the first time at the age of 26 and probably your son is poor and not Giannis😅 so STFU cause you didint knew Giannis until 2016.
Amazing
Have not watched NBA for decades since the MJs (Michael J and Magic Johnson) and this guy is pretty catching up with NBA greats and he is still young. He has power and quickness in his moves. Time will tell but at the pace he is playing - he will be one of them sooner than later barring major injuries. Hope he remains humble and down to earth once he gets to the top. Who knows, he could possibly be the greatest.
No1 made me smile like a fool.. it was like a steping over a still man in dunk contest!
Us when Giannis dunk: WOW what a dunk
Commentator: Hmm that's exciting
This is beyond awesome.
Giannis is the freak man! He's awesome!
GIANNNIS ISN'T HUMAN ! 😉
The annoccer when he jumps the guy “ohhhhh”
Giannis never gets old
Great freak
He is the player who makes me love NBA👌🏻
3:50 thank god Milwaukee got rid of that announcer lol
I think they still have him, he is their radio announcer.
OH MY GOODNESS
6:05 no one going to say anything about how he just stepped over a guy?
Giannis Air Antetokounmpo!!!
Humble guy, super man on the floor.
Fairytells are real
5:58 Giannis gotta chill tf out😂
Most common comment by commentators: "Oh my goodness.. are you kiddin' me?"
Wow! Just Wow! 1/4 Human 3/4 Amazing!
I love how they switched the commentary at 6:08 !!! The transition is so smooth !! 🔥
Well, like at 6:06 would be better but, still sick ! 🔥

BEAST
He needs to be careful because of his Achilles
Third guy to dunk OVER someone
Χρόνια πολλά τρελέ μου !
we've seen a player this dominant since the prime days of Dwight Howard, or prime Shaq. Giannis really is a special player
If i played defense on this guy, i would never come between him and the rim
thats what most players do. Its a good business decision.
Look at how dumbfounded Middleton was after watching Giannis fly over a 6'6'' human being. Great pass, iconic dunk in the garden. This was the same day Musk launched a convertible into space and I still have a hard time deciding which was more epic.
Nunca ha habido un jugador con este potencial físico, es increible.
