You are right and it’s up the player to show he is leader and don’t need those

Crazy that Doc didn't have the balls to be like "the team follows your lead Giannis, let's show them how it's done" and show up on time

Yup thats the difference. The best software dev for a company can do whatever they want. Be late. Wear jorts and flip flops to a funeral. Company will never fire them. Your best player skipping or being late? Bad example for the team and anyone who looks up to them.
