@@thatBRUDDA. this is literally a reaction to 1 game like what? 😂 if Shai had hooped yesterday and Okc won he wouldn’t be saying this and u talking bout “you haven’t watched Giannis” 😂
Gap in offence just comes down to pts rbs and assists While gap in defence usually boils down to athleticism blocks and steals so the defensive gap always appears larger But the gap on offence certainly makes up the gap in defence in this case although picking Giannis over Jokic is not a hot take
@ absolutely not Giannis is an alltime offensive player who is the most dominant scorer since shaq, and is an alltime defender. The Offensive gap isn’t big enough to make Jokic the “Clear better player”
@@pemp9606 all time offensive player? Anything outside box score that supports this? Maybe the fact a wall has continued to stifle him due to a lack of counters or the fact his teams have continuely been bottom 5 in offence in the playoffs?
@@tusharbisht6832 maybe cause his only good offensive players on his team have been Khris Middleton who is always injured/underperforming, and Jrue who shoots 35% from the field in the playoffs. He literally has to carry EVERYTHING. He has never had a Jamal Murray who can average 30 points in a finals. They don’t have any offensive elite creators until they got Dame. You saying this proves you down watch buddy.
@ but bucks in that same time period were a great offensive team In the regular season despite these major deficiencies according to you? Giannis was the main offensive engine for these teams too and his short comings came in multiple years due to zone defence completely stifling them. These are the most basic things you can observe yet I don’t watch? Giannis also had far superior defensive help when he was anchoring elite defences so I just say we’ll “jrue” and “Lopez” to discount Giannis defence like you did to Giannis offensive short comings? Jokic with a weak supporting cast (no Jamal or mpj) was raising the Denver offensive rating to absurd heights against the warriors in 22 and in general while Giannis without the Middleton was leading extremely weak offences against Boston in the same year. Giannis still had the better defensive unit that helped stretch the series while joker had no help on that end. The gap in offence is astronomical from a team building, analytics and play setting perspective I’m surprised someone thinks otherwise outside just box score watching (Btw outside outlier playoff series Middleton > Jamal on a consistent basis, also with the Middleton Jamal you forgot to mention defence something you are really harping on for this comparison my friend😃) btw Jamal average about 21 points in the finals only scored above 30 once in the finals and also scored below 20 3 times but whatever I guess (I’m expecting to be called names and that I don’t watch 😉)
There's a clear separation between players like jokic, giannis and Luka (I would also put embiid but injuries are what they are) and players like shai and tatum who are great but definitely not on that level. You gotta be biased or blind to not see that.
@strongbone9471 luka comes from a season averaging 34/9/10 on good efficiency, making the finals and 2 WCF in 3 years with two diffrent teams, leading the entire players in the playoffs in pts/reb/ast/stl, although he didn't win yet like joker and giannis you can argue his playoff legacy is already as good if not better, he's definitely in that tier.
Embiid doesn’t deserve to be there regardless of injury. Embiid is the most overrated player of all time. He’s constantly in convos he’s not supposed to be in
@@anthonycelestin3559People like you make no sense. When healthy, he’s clearly the best scoring center in the league, maybe ever. And not to mention, he’s probably the best defensive player outside Gobert. He comes up short in the playoffs, but he’s literally always hurt. I dont understand how you can definitively say Giannis or Jokic is a tier above him when they’re all on the court.
It is an honor to be misunderstood by all yall that learned the game from 2k. You think ball is played on calculators and charts so the biggest compliment you can pay me is disagreeing with me. I couldn’t be happier.
congratulations to the bucks. theyre better than they get credit for. OKC also arent as bad as people are trying to make it seem. shooting variance at the wrong time will do that though
Mark Daigneault on playing shai more off the ball: “Jackson’s pressure, he’s denying him full.. we weren’t able to shake him as much as we’d like to..”
The Bucks defense was definitely the cause of all those misses simply because they knew OKC wasn’t good at shooting the 3 so they allowed them to take them while also meeting Shai at his spots in the Middy this notion that guys just missed is insane
The 'Big Men alliance' is killing me. The idea that a PF or a C can only dominate if he strictly plays with his back facing the rim is whatever to me. I hate the fact that when the conversation about the 'most dominant big men' pops up, only Shaq & Wilt are being considered. Why? Kareem was dominant; Jokic is. The same way, Giannis dominates, not just like the 'traditional big men'.
*@Fab_rice95* I think it's a silly title to even take serious and is just a conversation that takes away from what is ultimately relevant which is effectiveness alone. When they say "most dominant", it has been clarified many times that they just mean "physically dominant". So with that being the criteria for this silly title of "most dominant big", that removes Kareem and Jokic from contention because they weren't nearly as "physically dominant" (basically not as powerful and physically assertive) as Wilt and Shaq. However Giannis may belong in that silly conversation because he is very physically dominant. This is all I really care to discuss about it though, I was mainly clarifying for you what people mean by "most dominant big".
2:16:21 This part was a really good convo. Jerry West should have gotten on mention as well if people went by criteria. He would be the greatest pg ever by this standard. Also CP3 would do well in this criteria.
I think y'all should do an episode about what peak versions of players like Kobe, Jordan, Hakeem, Duncan, etc., would be the best in the world. I also think y'all missed Marz's point when he said offense and defense are equal. I believe his point was that if offense/defense were 50/50, would the all-time top ten change, and yeah, I think it would.
Offence and defence are 50/50 theirs no analytics that show that stopping a team from scoring 5 points below average is worse than scoring 5 points above average yourself. The problem is more so an offensive player individually can have more direct impact on a teams overall offence than an individual defender can on an overall teams defence due to defence is more a reactionary situation while on offence you control the flow of the ball. This is also why people are baffled at the idea of draymond being a top 10 player in the league at any point in his career cause the pre-requisite mindset is well obviously (offence > defence) which isn’t true
@@PrinceDJj no it’s not equal because an elite defender is more reliant on the team for a good defence as it is a reactionary position to be in to where the ball goes. And the ball won’t always be where you are. On offence players can impact the offence more. But in a hypothetical world a defender could be better just on defence than let’s say magic or Steph are on offence. Offence and defence are 50/50 but defensive players have less impact on that end due to the reactionary nature of the role I hope this makes sense
@@PrinceDJj cool beans also I’d take peak draymond over Kyrie as he helps a team widen the gap between their score and the opponents score more imo. But most would take Kyrie due to (offence > defence) mentality as appose to measuring impact 🫡
😂😂😂 I guess I don't understand "Big O Chill" because I'm not a big man. So, when I watched Giannis put up 26, 19, 10, I'm thinking that's more than enough, and he did punish people when he was supposed to. But y'all say he needs to be more than a run-and-dunk man, and when he does that to evolve his game, it's still wrong. It's like Giannis can't win, even when he does win.
@@PrinceDJj just no way him playing a 4 gaurd lineup and not posting up every play, way too many time he had a 6’3 gaurd on his hip and didn’t go down to the block and punish them, u can say he played very good and also say he wasn’t as dominant as he should’ve been

Shai is the only player tht can get an excuse like “he knos his teams gonna win more games then they lose so he’s experimenting with the 3.” Like cmon marz lmaoooo no other player has ever gotten that but now since Shai played like ass he’s “experimenting” Blaming missed shots on experimenting is just clear bias disguised as analytical basketball talk wether the shots were open or not.
The fact that people think Dirk outplaying KG in their playoff series is a slight to KG, just shows how underrated Dirk really is, him and Kareem have the most unstoppable shots ever, people act like Dirk was dunking on KG and blowing by him on offense. People who are optimistic on the Thunder being contenders don’t watch them every night, I think if we were to get Jimmy Butler I’d see the vision, having no forward above 6’6 who can play 30+ minutes a night is concerning to me, not to mention no one having playoff experience like that, SGA without the whistle looks average at best. Jokic isnt levels above Giannis at all, they’re actually about 5 all time spots from each other believe it or not.
What's the logic for offense being more valuable than defense? I'd argue there is more of a surplus of offensive talent in basketball but abundance does not equate to more value. I'd argue that guys like Hakeem, Duncan and Wilt were far far far better on defense than they were on offense (none of them were elite offensive engines minus outlier series) and they are universal top 10 players. Never forget Marz doesn't know basketball
@@nykareem2001 it’s not but historically offensive players can effect a teams overall offence more due to having control of the ball and the flow of the game while on defence you react to the ball therefore you alone cannot impact the defence to the same extent as the offensive players (it’s equally valuable to stop a team from scoring 5 pts below average than scoring 5 pts above average yourself) but more often offensive players help you with that goal, your right though their are some one way defenders that are grossly underrated nowadays like Mutumbo who are seen worse than Kyrie Irving? Weird
Offense is way more valuable than defense for an individual player. For those that disagree - tell me where do you put Ben Wallace all time? What about Rudy Gobert? Mark Eaton? They've all won multiple DPOYs, yet nobody in their right mind ranks them higher than offensive juggernauts that play mid/poor defense.
Please explain how stopping a team from scoring 5 points below their average is less valuable than scoring 5 points above average yourself? Just naming players isn’t really a good arguement as appose to showing some sort of explanation?
I'm merely speaking about the value of an individual player, not of a team. In which case - you haven't answered my previous questions. But let me ask you this: Could Ben Wallace will a team of role players to the playoffs like a Jokic, Luka, Dame, Harden, Dirk, early Lebron type of player? I don't think so. If you have a great offensive player on your team, that means you have somebody who can disrupt the defense of the other side and dictate the pace of a game. To a point where even his own defensive deficiencies might not matter. If you have a great defensive player - cool, what are you gonna do when your opponent inevitably exploits the weakest link on your team? Do you have the necessary arsenal to respond?
While I still have OKC as the favorite to come out the West, there shooting has been really that good all year. I think defense with Chet back can lead them to finals but shooting issues are still there. Also games like yesterday show why Boston is by far the best team in the league
What would be interesting in the all star game would be some of these players that’s chucking all these 3 pt shots go against curry, dame, klay, and harden.
When the game is on the line KG is nowhere to be found scoring wise.He vanishes.Jokers defence sux most of the game but last few minutes in close game he plays his ass off on both ends and is one of the clutchest players of all time.Thats the difference between the two
Bucks just need another legit role player. I trust guys like aj, andre, taurean and GTJ to bring what they bring but they need a role player thats a difference maker. Like a Caris levert.
Ok, when does one team say “ok the 3’s not falling…..LETS GET TO THE RACK AND TO THE LINE”?? Why is it ok we missing so let’s just keep missing and that fine smh
they did get to the rack. the end of the day they didnt take that many threes. just cos they missed a bunch people view it as chucking em. when in reality they shot less than they normally would
I just have such a problem with the way ox,chill,Ron talk ball. Like they are missing something man. From the Joker Vs Kg convo then on it’s like what??
To say based off 1 game it ain’t just 1 game it’s a body of work Giannis accomplished more than Shai, he got 2 League MVPs, a defensive player of the year award, a finals MVP, won the 2021 All star, so based on that Giannis is better than Shai no debate until shai gets a ring, a MVP then come talk to me. OKC #1 seed as of right now, u got media, some TH-cam channels calling them the best defensive team, all Ik is shai for as good as he is, gotta get it done when it matters the most which is the playoffs, because last year ppl was on they knees for OKC, I don’t care bout Shai averaged 30 against Dallas they loss, same this year no matter who they play in the playoffs, don’t wonna hear he ain’t got help because he got Chet who’s hurt right now, u got Jalen Williams who averaging career highs almost 22 a game, as well as a good defender, got dort, Carson Wallace who ppl praise, Caruso who they traded, got Isaiah Hartenstein who some ppl out here was bragging bout they was 7-1, 8-1 with him in the lineup, who’s averaging 12 and 12 on the year so he got plenty of help shai the man for the team gotta get it done period!
the bucks are a better 3 point shooting team and the okc has the best perimeter defense and still the looks that the bucks had was way better than okcs
OKC has been playing the same way for the most part and it has been leading to wins and rightfully so. But now that we've seen the Bucks defense make it tough for SGA and the Thunder we pulling exuses out of thin air now? Bucks defense was on point. Bucks had 19 turnovers and OKC only got 11 points off those turnovers. Lets just give credit where credit is due. It's not that hard. Remember it was a 1 point game coming out of half.
WHO is the MOE guy always in the Chat,i want that person to fawad in the comments below and debate me,this peraon can only say dumb statements, actually come up with legit arguments, don't just say "You're a hater" lol🤦🏾♂️🍻🍺
Saying 09-18 Lebron would be the best player in the world is crazy!! I think nostalgia makes us feel like someone was better than they were. Jokic is about to average a triple-double and literally wins games alone with no all star or superstar. He got a championship without a superstar, Bron has never done that. He needed a superstar for all of his rings. I think we have a weird way of remembering things and not appreciating the now. In 15 years we’ll be able to make a better judgement.
So, for me, LeBron became the best player in the world in 2010, even though Kobe had just won the championship, because I say peak LeBron is Miami LeBron, and that's the best player I've ever seen. So, yes, peak LeBron would clearly be the best player in the world by a wide margin.
lol okc had one bad game now yall questioning Shai as a elite player?? This dude said is Shai impactful when he isn’t scoring?? It’s only a few players that impact the game like that, Luka jokic and Gianni’s that’s it, that ain’t right to do to Shai
Free throws and spacing are the argument for those guys. But the force Giannis puts on the rim swings the balance a little bit. I don't agree with anyone saying Giannis is leaps and bounds better. But what he's doing this year warrants him having claim to #2 in the league talks tbh.
Luka, Tatum and Giannis are the most disrespected current players on PC. Bar a nba chip, you could argue Luka has had a similar or even better playoff career than both Giannis or Joker. The guy has been a top 5 performer and player from his 2nd season. Shai is maybe having a better season now than him, but pls Luka is at worst a top 3 player in the nba. Tatum 2-way impact gets disrespected on a regular. On any given night he might be celtics best defensive and offensiv player. Giannis gets less love lately maybe because he hasnt gone further in the playoffs since his ring and we tend to forget who the fuck he is.

Jokic isnt levels above Giannis at all, they’re actually about 5 all time spots from each other believe it or not.
No way you a thunder fan

What's the logic for offense being more valuable than defense? I'd argue there is more of a surplus of offensive talent in basketball but abundance does not equate to more value. I'd argue that guys like Hakeem, Duncan and Wilt were far far far better on defense than they were on offense (none of them were elite offensive engines minus outlier series) and they are universal top 10 players.
Never forget Marz doesn't know basketball
im cooked
@@nykareem2001 it’s not but historically offensive players can effect a teams overall offence more due to having control of the ball and the flow of the game while on defence you react to the ball therefore you alone cannot impact the defence to the same extent as the offensive players (it’s equally valuable to stop a team from scoring 5 pts below average than scoring 5 pts above average yourself) but more often offensive players help you with that goal, your right though their are some one way defenders that are grossly underrated nowadays like Mutumbo who are seen worse than Kyrie Irving? Weird
If nykareem2001 says “you don’t know basketball” then you are 100% in the right
Offense is way more valuable than defense for an individual player. For those that disagree - tell me where do you put Ben Wallace all time? What about Rudy Gobert? Mark Eaton? They've all won multiple DPOYs, yet nobody in their right mind ranks them higher than offensive juggernauts that play mid/poor defense.
Lol how? Rudy and Ben will make the Hall of fame .
But arenas won't
@@elmztana1201theres no way ur a real person
@MarzTalksSports 😂😂😂
Please explain how stopping a team from scoring 5 points below their average is less valuable than scoring 5 points above average yourself? Just naming players isn’t really a good arguement as appose to showing some sort of explanation?
I'm merely speaking about the value of an individual player, not of a team. In which case - you haven't answered my previous questions. But let me ask you this: Could Ben Wallace will a team of role players to the playoffs like a Jokic, Luka, Dame, Harden, Dirk, early Lebron type of player? I don't think so. If you have a great offensive player on your team, that means you have somebody who can disrupt the defense of the other side and dictate the pace of a game. To a point where even his own defensive deficiencies might not matter. If you have a great defensive player - cool, what are you gonna do when your opponent inevitably exploits the weakest link on your team? Do you have the necessary arsenal to respond?
While I still have OKC as the favorite to come out the West, there shooting has been really that good all year. I think defense with Chet back can lead them to finals but shooting issues are still there.
Also games like yesterday show why Boston is by far the best team in the league
What would be interesting in the all star game would be some of these players that’s chucking all these 3 pt shots go against curry, dame, klay, and harden.
the 3pt contest?
DO AN EPISODE RANKING THE BEST DEFENDERS EVER, DO ANOTHER ONE OF YOUR OWN TOP 75!!!
Chalking all of OKC’s struggles up to them being a young team every time just feels like lazy analysis to me.. sometimes people miss shots
What are numbers in play-offs Kat vs Jokic???
Marz is the Steve Job's of bad basketball takes
I think u spelled penn wrong
could someone like tyus jones have done 80% of what john stockton was doing?
120% of what he did
Tj doing that Ricky Rubio rn doing that tyus jones doing 3 times as much as Stockton
In no logical world does a dam series automatically elevate you
Marz knows the meaning of "Oyinbo"😅
When the game is on the line KG is nowhere to be found scoring wise.He vanishes.Jokers defence sux most of the game but last few minutes in close game he plays his ass off on both ends and is one of the clutchest players of all time.Thats the difference between the two
@@drazzzpoppp5022 😂😂😂
U dont agree?
@@drazzzpoppp5022was he playing clutch defense last years playoffs
Bucks just need another legit role player. I trust guys like aj, andre, taurean and GTJ to bring what they bring but they need a role player thats a difference maker. Like a Caris levert.
Won’t matter. Celtics in 5.

Positional 1v1 is fire
i promise shai only played bad because i bet on him
Unc said Moses Malone better than Giannis😂✌🏾
Marz you cooked. I need a top ten if offence and defence are equal from you. And then I need it from PC.
maybe id do sum like that on my channel
@MarzTalksSportsyour the only non casual on the panel these days💔
But was Giannis really more impactful than shai in this game? I mean, we can't know for sure untill Swipa reads us the BPM numbers😂.
Ok, when does one team say “ok the 3’s not falling…..LETS GET TO THE RACK AND TO THE LINE”?? Why is it ok we missing so let’s just keep missing and that fine smh
they did get to the rack. the end of the day they didnt take that many threes. just cos they missed a bunch people view it as chucking em. when in reality they shot less than they normally would
I just have such a problem with the way ox,chill,Ron talk ball. Like they are missing something man. From the Joker Vs Kg convo then on it’s like what??
To say based off 1 game it ain’t just 1 game it’s a body of work Giannis accomplished more than Shai, he got 2 League MVPs, a defensive player of the year award, a finals MVP, won the 2021 All star, so based on that Giannis is better than Shai no debate until shai gets a ring, a MVP then come talk to me. OKC #1 seed as of right now, u got media, some TH-cam channels calling them the best defensive team, all Ik is shai for as good as he is, gotta get it done when it matters the most which is the playoffs, because last year ppl was on they knees for OKC, I don’t care bout Shai averaged 30 against Dallas they loss, same this year no matter who they play in the playoffs, don’t wonna hear he ain’t got help because he got Chet who’s hurt right now, u got Jalen Williams who averaging career highs almost 22 a game, as well as a good defender, got dort, Carson Wallace who ppl praise, Caruso who they traded, got Isaiah Hartenstein who some ppl out here was bragging bout they was 7-1, 8-1 with him in the lineup, who’s averaging 12 and 12 on the year so he got plenty of help shai the man for the team gotta get it done period!
sad
the bucks are a better 3 point shooting team and the okc has the best perimeter defense and still the looks that the bucks had was way better than okcs
Hakeem
Giannis
AD
Jordan
Lebron
Kg
Robinson
Wilt
Tim
Kareem probably
I need to know the Moses Malone logic
End of the day no timestamps sigh
OKC has been playing the same way for the most part and it has been leading to wins and rightfully so. But now that we've seen the Bucks defense make it tough for SGA and the Thunder we pulling exuses out of thin air now? Bucks defense was on point. Bucks had 19 turnovers and OKC only got 11 points off those turnovers. Lets just give credit where credit is due. It's not that hard. Remember it was a 1 point game coming out of half.
Credit okc for missing 20 open 3s

Defense can never = offense cuz u literally can’t win the game without offense
Saying 09-18 Lebron would be the best player in the world is crazy!! I think nostalgia makes us feel like someone was better than they were. Jokic is about to average a triple-double and literally wins games alone with no all star or superstar. He got a championship without a superstar, Bron has never done that. He needed a superstar for all of his rings. I think we have a weird way of remembering things and not appreciating the now. In 15 years we’ll be able to make a better judgement.
Nah the way you talk ball just sucks
nah bron just better
OX are we talking about a higher power in basketball? They choked last night. Y’all can’t pull “just wasn’t falling” on a championship night.
“Just wasnt falling” is as real as anything in basketball.
championship night or preseason its basketball. sometimes shots drop sometimes they dont.

Kg better than jokic or giannis lol, what are we even doing here
No not better than them, HE CLEARS THEM!!!!!
Giannis is better than KG
So, for me, LeBron became the best player in the world in 2010, even though Kobe had just won the championship, because I say peak LeBron is Miami LeBron, and that's the best player I've ever seen. So, yes, peak LeBron would clearly be the best player in the world by a wide margin.
Giannis and shai both mvp one is in nba one is in h league
lol okc had one bad game now yall questioning Shai as a elite player?? This dude said is Shai impactful when he isn’t scoring?? It’s only a few players that impact the game like that, Luka jokic and Gianni’s that’s it, that ain’t right to do to Shai

KG’s MVP years are a top 10 peak in NBA history. We get it every older player is overrated and this era has the most gifted players ever, we get it🤣
I'm taking Shai and Tatum over Giannis
Free throws and spacing are the argument for those guys. But the force Giannis puts on the rim swings the balance a little bit.
I don't agree with anyone saying Giannis is leaps and bounds better. But what he's doing this year warrants him having claim to #2 in the league talks tbh.
Stay in school😂

@ You do realise Hanzo, Drink your water are active in the PC chat and are similarly anti-Jokic too?
@@Icarus_prime I don't think he is anti-jokic. He just is a bucks fan who tries to defend ga when he feels he is being desrespected
Luka, Tatum and Giannis are the most disrespected current players on PC. Bar a nba chip, you could argue Luka has had a similar or even better playoff career than both Giannis or Joker. The guy has been a top 5 performer and player from his 2nd season. Shai is maybe having a better season now than him, but pls Luka is at worst a top 3 player in the nba.
Tatum 2-way impact gets disrespected on a regular. On any given night he might be celtics best defensive and offensiv player.
Giannis gets less love lately maybe because he hasnt gone further in the playoffs since his ring and we tend to forget who the fuck he is.
