GIANNIS HAS SO MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT FOR HIS BROTHER. IF IT WASN'T FOR THANNIS HE WOULD BE A SOCCER PLAYER NOT IN THE NBA. THANNIS WAS AN INTERNATIONAL STAR. THANKS FOR BRINGING YOUR BROTHER GIANNIS TO NBA BASKETBALL.
THANK YOU FOR HIGHLIGHTING THE ACCOMPLISHMENT OF THANASIS, HE WAS ON THE BENCH IN MILWAUKEE BUT HE HAS PLAYED A LOT AROUND THE WORLD AND WAS ASTRONG PLAYER
3 brothers, who grew up without sneakers all got chips. I grew up with sneakers was one of the Top 100 players in my class in the United States, number 3 at my position and I don’t have an NBA minute logged and I spent my entire career (14 seasons) chasing it. So ima givem their props because it’s probably the toughest thing in the world to do. Players ranked under made it, the 2 players ranked ahead me at my position were lottery picks. I got rostered on some summer leagues and NBADL teams before it was the G league but it never happened for me. Thank God for Euro ball, Australian leagues and all the other great leagues thru out the world the give hoopers a chance to make a living in a different environment
Paok is more of a 4th biggest club in Greece considering all sports. Olympiakos / Panathinaikos / AEK are the undisputed top 3. Other than that amazing video 💪
I was critical of Thanasis until I read about him and until Bronny's Make-A-(Lebron)-Wish set a new standard for nepotism, riveling hereditary absolute rulers. Considering his locker room impact, respectable international/G-league career, low drama, not wasting a pick (he was drafted by the NYK before Giannis became a star, NOT because of nepotism), and keeping Giannis happy, his contract is acceptable.
. If you have an issue with Bronny you have to have an issue with this. It’s the same situation. Without Giannis thanasis wouldn’t have sniffed the nba. And to say “Bronny set a standard for nepotism” when the owner of the lakers is literally the owner because of nepotism 😂😂😂
@@domoreresearch Complete BS 1. Thanasis made the league _on his own_ . He was drafted just a year after Giannis and long before Giannis made a name for himself 2. The Lakers' owners inherited the business/money just like any other person inherits their parents' assets; they didn't use that power to play on the team or steal other people's roster spots 3. The Bucks didn't waste a pick on him. 4. Bronny is infinitely worse. 5. Both are nepotism, but Bronny's is just far worse.
@@RVered So why isn’t he on an nba roster rn? And what does any of that have to do with Jeanie bus being the owner of the lakers due to nepotism and you have no problem with it 😂😂😂
To you casuals, this is not like the bronny situation with Thanasis, dude earned his spot. 12ppg in Europe is not the same as 12ppg in the NBA. Got himself drafted and even in the G he still had something going for him. It's better to be a vet leader than a baby on the bench
Goes to show you how crazy Charles Antetokounmpo's athleticism and genes are. When Giannis said his dad is good at football (soccer), he wasn't lying at all. All the kids got into high level sports careers.
Ironically it was Thanasis shoulder's that hold his 3 brothers as a 2nd father, when they were facing extreme poverty, racism and legal issues in Greece.
The parents raised them so well. They all managed to get into the NBA which is amazing achievement. Lavar ball would have had the same success if he wasn't so hard on his sons.
Can you do a video about how exactly the year league works like is it like the premier league in soccer? Is it a whole bunch of leagues in one and if so, how do they pick teams for the euro league
The league should have a list of players that are only NBA eligible so only the top players in the world can play, not a 2nd stringer in college who's not even considered one of the top players in the conference.
@FrantzHaiti what? Are kidding me.... the other 2 contributed NOTHING to those Chips. Like I said, the HOLIDAYS may have something to say about that. And most certainly the Barry's.
0:37 Yeah Thanasis can be a respectable pro and he's closer to LeBron than I am but we can't ignore that relative to his peers, he's an absolute trash.
I hope they resign Thanasis when he's healthy. Having an energy guy that exudes positivity, always has everyone's back, helps keep your star and biggest investment player stay level headed, etc, is easily worth his contract even if he didn't play all those garbage minutes and give us great highlights. The hate he gets from some people has always been pretty bogus.
Kostas probably wouldve had a good career if he wasnt drafted by the mavs since why would they develop other people rather than the guy who is a rookie and carrying them
Pro basketball. One of the only sports where you just have to be born tall and you'll get a chance to make millions no matter how good or bad you are at the sport because a team will throw a flier at you. Meanwhile there are players who play at a high level their entire life but can't make it in to the league because all they want these days are stringbeans who can shoot an occasional 3.
If a Player Gets the Minutes, he should Produce, Base on the Minutes he receives. Professional Basketball is Heavily Laden with Nepotism and Favoritisms as all of the Brothers can attest. Nepotism because of their Brother Giannis and Favouritism by the Franchise they Played for, who kept them on their Franchise Teams by intentionally Limited their Abilities to Produce on the Hardwood, by means limiting Floor Minutes, FGA’s and Touches on the Ball. Basketball is a Science, it’s not like the Average Basketball
HAS ANYONE NOTICED THAT THANNIS IS SITTING ON THE BENCH, EVEN THOUGH HE DOESN'T WEAR THE UNIFORM. , THAT THE BUCKS ARE BALLING AND HANDLING BUSINESS. I'M JUST SAYING 🤔
Bottom line I think they're better businessmen than basketball players. Except for giannis, there's no crime that they can't play basketball at the highest level, which is the NBA
Don’t they all play or work for the bucks organization? lol either on the court or in the concession stands ? You know Giannis forced the bucks into giving them some sort of a job
Probably a slip of the tongue as he's not a native English speaker. Better rephrased would be 'among the best or top NBA players of the last 6 yrs'. I don't think any one player has consistently been the best for more than a couple yrs at a time. There's too many elite guys to have one guy as being the best for a 6 yr period.
NBA ring the opportunity to show case your talent in the biggest stage . Win millions travel ext . Sounds worth it to me . Bru the shittiest nba player will destroy any casual .
