Bill Simmons questions whether Giannis is still a top-five player and doesn’t think teams should trade all their assets for him. “He doesn’t play… He’s closer to Embiid than Jokic… He gets hurt all the time. I’d be really scared.” (@HeatCulture13 )

@HeatCulture13 Last 6 years: 63 gms - MVP1, DPOY1, NBA1, DEF1 61 gms - MVP4, DPOY5, NBA1, DEF1 67 gms - MVP3, DPOY6, NBA1, DEF1 63 gms - MVP3, DPOY6, NBA1 73 gms - MVP4, DPOY9, NBA1 67 gms - MVP3, DPOY8, NBA1 First year he’s not made it to 60 gms, but sure “he gets hurt all the time.” 🤡

@HeatCulture13 Imagine taking “Bill Simmons” seriously in 2026…

@HeatCulture13 Giannis closer to Embiid? Wild take. Giannis plays defense at an elite level and carried a team to a title. Embiid's the injury king. Bill just hates fun dominant bigs 😂

@HeatCulture13 Heat fans salty once again The disrespect - Buck fans would never

@HeatCulture13 Is this the most disrespectful exit for a franchise GOAT we've ever seen?

@HeatCulture13 National media is weak and pathetic 😂😂😂 any team would be blessed to have Giannis on they team

@HeatCulture13 Giannis top 3 when healthy

@HeatCulture13 Good take Wemby, Luka, SGA, Ant, Jokic and Brown are all better than Giannis today and are all younger and less injury prone. The fact that he has been in top 3 talks despite being a first round exit 4 years straight just shows how insane his PR is

this is the definition of a bad take. Giannis has made 7 straight 1st team all NBAs and finished top 4 in MVP voting each of the last 7 years. This is the first time he wont hit the games mark to qualify for the end of season awards. What a joke of a conversation to say he isn't a top 5 player.

🫡

@HeatCulture13 There we go media, keep smearing his name. That switch up is going to be so damn fast if he ever gets traded.

@HeatCulture13 Don’t care. Warriors will give up everything for him.

@HeatCulture13

@HeatCulture13 Healthy Giannis is top 3, no debate

@HeatCulture13 Closer to Embiid than Jokic? That’s a stretch. Giannis has led his team to a title and consistently keeps them in contention. He’s not just a regular-season star... he’s proven it in the playoffs.

@HeatCulture13 First season hes had back to back calf strains like this but apparently thats the same as a guy with degenerative knee issues or something

@HeatCulture13 The shift in discourse makes me wanna throw up. Bro just got off injury and aggravated his knee again now the narrative is “he’s always injured, he has no value he’s injury prone” One off year don’t mean his name gotta get tarnished.

@HeatCulture13 Is this the same Bill Simmons who once said he wouldn't trade Marcus Smart for a prime Ray Allen?

@HeatCulture13 Honestly I’m starting to see his point. The availability thing is real. You can’t be the guy someone empties the cupboard for if you’re missing 20+ games a year and limping through every playoff run. The Embiid comp feels uncomfortable but it’s not ridiculous.

@HeatCulture13 He’s becoming another Russell Westbrook like player. In his prime his athleticism set him apart, but he hasn’t really developed his game beyond brute force edge. Still a v good player but you can’t win it all if he’s your cornerstone

@HeatCulture13 Lmao how is this dude still employed 🤡

@HeatCulture13 Same mofo that 2months ago said Atlanta should trade Jalen Johnson and the pelicans pick for him. He’s an idiot.

@HeatCulture13 Do you really want to give up a bunch of young assets & picks for an injury prone 31 year old player on an expiring contract whose game is primarily based on athleticism? There is definitely a price worth paying but the Bucks missed peak value they could’ve obtained.

@HeatCulture13 Lol the devalue Giannis narratives are starting already

@HeatCulture13 Giannis made over 60 games ( way over ) each year . No load management , no ducking and plays both ends . This was the first year that he had multiple injuries and you immediately compare him to embiid that has more games missed than played in his career. Wild…

@HeatCulture13 1.Shai 2.Luka 3.Curry 4.Ant 5.Jokic 6.Giannis he’s barley top 5

@HeatCulture13 Bill is just trying to lower the trade value so Gianni’s can go to a super team

@HeatCulture13 What a stupid thing to say

@HeatCulture13 He's also aging. In NBA history, even aging like Harden is rare.

@HeatCulture13 you can argue that THIS season but other than that this is just recent bias at its peak honestly

@HeatCulture13 Ngl as a huge Giannis fan it is a red flag that he doesn’t have chemistry with his own team. He might be cooked

@HeatCulture13 The league is trying to lower Giannis value so bucks can be okay with getting peanuts back I see the play

@HeatCulture13 THIS SEASON my model has Giannis ranked the 8th best player in total value when he is healthy. I get the injury concerns, but hard to pass up on the opportunity to get a player of Giannis's caliber.

@HeatCulture13 Genuinely might be one of the worst takes I’ve heard in the last 5 years

@HeatCulture13 He’s averaging 28/10/5 on elite efficiency. Pushes his body further than it can because the team sucks. He’s a top 5 player no doubt. If you disagree you’re just another victim of recency bias.
