 It's a lot closer now that it used to be what say you.

Would still take Giannis. I think KO is a fine player though, and he's great off the bench. But I'd still take the Greek Freak.

I love Kelly but I would still take Giannis. Remember, he's 3 years, 8 months younger than Kelly.

Both.

Must've been glad to see KO tonight, huh? I'm starting to cling to the idea that he may be turning a corner here.

Edit: Oh yeah, and I agree. The correct answer is both, KG.

Giannis without a doubt.

Not being a homer, but Giannis doesn't move the needle much in Milwaukee. Could be different if he played here, though as CBS will put him in position to be more successful.

To move the needle, they first have to fire Kidd.

During their rookie seasons I kind of talked myself into siding with Kelly.  Then Giannis really separated himself in their second seasons. Kelly has had a nice little stretch lately but it's not a big enough body of good work for me to even think Kelly and Giannis are in the same ballpark.  I'd still take Giannis and it's not even close.  But I would absolutely love for Kelly to play like he played last night for a couple months and force me to change my preference.

We had a thread a couple weeks ago on who we would choose between Giannis or Wiggins and I chose Giannis, as did a few other posters.  So it seems far fetched to compare Giannis and Kelly a couple weeks later.  But things can change!

The stats are a lot closer than most people probably think but being a few years younger and far more athletic gives the edge to Giannis.

I would love to have Giannis on this team but not at Kelly's expense. If I had to choose I would roll with Kelly, a floor spacing big with 3point range, high iq and improving defense.

why start a new thread on this topic? it maybe be better to resurrect one of the many many old threads on this so everyone can also read the history of what has been posted.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.
