    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)

    I see people on other socials saying AD is better than Giannis. Recency bias is strong for NBA fans

    Gipenis needs refs for stats just like heat and Cavs era lebron. Prime/peak/healthy AD is one of the most classic great big men in nba history.

    Recency bias on May 7 2023 should also favor AD.

    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

    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.
    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?

    It's almost like someone was and is again injured.

    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.
