That’s because they’re all holding lit cigarettes.

One of his coaches didn't want anyone leaving their feet on defense (apparently that was best practices back then). Russell was like WTF and insisted on jumping so that he could block shots - he was a high jumper in high school.

I want there to be a movie where Giannis or someone similar goes back in time to play in the 50s or 60s.

They are using his likeness to market tix aggressively right now.

Not sure what he would be offended about. He was rumored in Anthony Davis, Kawhi Leonard, and KD trades. Three guys that are all better than him. He's a smart guy, he should be flattered!

He also has an ego and is a bit insecure. But I agree with you. He has value and is still signed for two more years. He also recently signed with Kanye West's rep company....wonder what advice they were giving him.

I'm not a cap expert, but the extension rules may really limit the C's ability to resign him early.
