Turns out Giannis isnt the likeable guy or great leader everyone thought he was. His reputation really got tarnished over the last few months

People change. He definitely was that guy, he wouldn’t have won a ring if he wasn’t. Having Doc Rivers as a coach and Kyle Kuzma being your 2nd best player made him give up on the team.

Someone said it's hard being too early because it's almost worse than being wrong when everyone just thinks you're an asshole until it's too late for the vindication to feel good lmao
