Does Giannis have a case as the GOAT 2-way player? (alien.top)

Factoring in both offense and defense, the only player with a better argument is hakeem.

While they are equally as impactful on defense, i think giannis is a better offensive player due to his playmaking ability which hakeem lacks. What do you think?

No way. LeBron at his peak was better on offense and defense than giannis

And on top of them all, Michael.

Giannis offensive woes are way too apparentnin the playoffs lol. He isnt close

There’s a guy named Michael Jordan. Have you heard of him?

[–] MrAppleSpoink@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hakeem will always hold that title unless Wemby completely fulfills his potential.

Giannis is probably around top 3-4. Also, to those saying Jordan, you’re simply wrong. A guard cannot ever be truly in this discussion because no guard, no matter how good they are defensively, can ever have the defensive impact of an elite big man.

LeBron, Kawhi, Michael, Duncan, KG, hakeem. All have better cases then Giannis and I really don't think it's close.

Hakeem Olajuwon was better defenively than Giannis Antetokounmpo is. And that is not debatable.
