Thanks for posting this. I really enjoyed it. It already looks like the sky is the limit for this kid, but if he maintains that level of humility in the NBA, I'll certainly be rooting for him.

Man, I like this kid a lot. I hope he becomes a star in this league for the Bucks.

Also, we should try to snag his brother with our 2nd rounder. He might have similar upside.

I play ball with a bunch of Greek doctors so they are avidly following this kid.

Just read it- definitely a great story, a breath of fresh air. He sounds like a great kid. The Greek Freak looked quite good against the Clippers the other game, and I don't think anyone would be surprised to see him as an All-Star multiple times in the future.

My Mrs. is a bubble, so we're invested in him as well. It'd be great if the Clips could wrangle him someday!

I haven't seen him play but my Greek friend was comparing him to KD.

^ A little premature for that, but he clearly has a very high ceiling.

I think he meant body type.

Speaking of the Bucks, they just had a press conference earlier this afternoon introducing two new owners of the team. As a someone who has some ties to Milwaukee, I truly hope that they stay there.

Giannis really has the makings of being an excellent player; they're a couple players away from being a playoff team again.

Double double post!
