The wild thing is apparently there were other teams wanting to sign him.
Truly shocking and unexpected.
My dream of Thanasis playing tight end for the Packers remains on hold
Meh. Wish we didnât have so many non NBA level players on the roster but got to keep Giannis happy.
The fact that so many people still donât understand Thanasis is baffling to me. So, let me break it down for you:
1. He is as hardworking as anyone
2. BroLo has said that Thanasis almost single-handedly kept the team together during lockdown. He kept calling everyone, asking how they are doing, if they needed anything, etc. By all accounts, it absolutely sucks playing against him during practice because he goes 100mph.
3. When you me No. 1 takes practice as seriously as Giannis, your middle guys are Pat and Allen, and your end of the bench is a human dynamo, youâll be damned if you take off plays off during practice.
4. He is super fan guy to hang around.
5. he is a bench cheerleader that keeps cheering for everyone, at all times.
6. He makes Giannis, the very foundation of this whole franchise(!), happy.
Also, you think a team like the Knicks wouldnât love to have Thanasis on the roster? Help all their young player as a season vet, and as a guy that has learned a lot under Bud and Sfairopoulos.
Go ahead. Find ANY end of the bench player that does HALF of that, and tell us about it. Iâll waitâŠ
Thanasty is back on the menu!
I donât think A) fully understanding and acknowledging why they bring Thanasis back every year and B) still not being happy with the Bucks using a roster spot on him have to be mutually exclusive. I get Thanasis is a good guy and good for vibes but we literally donât have a backup PG right now, Iâd much rather use that spot to take a shot on a younger guard that you can develop.
LETS GOOO
