Why Old School Fans Accept Giannis Antetokounmpo

This video is about Giannis Antetokounmpo and why Old School accept him.
Reason number one is Giannis Playing style.
In todays NBA where literaly everybody is just jacking up 3s, Giannis plays a lot like an old school player which means he is taking the ball to the hole.
He is not waiting at the 3 point line until he gets open for a shot, but he enjoying the contact and forces his way to the basket.
The good thing is that not only getting his opponents in foul trouble, but also his shooting percentage is always above 50 percent.
so this is a very efficient way how to help his team and as a old school fan you get a lot of dunk and a lot of in the paint bullying.
That what we like to see. Now just to be clear in the last 2 years giannis is taking more 3 pointers which is a result of guys literally leaving him open to shoot.
but it is still a acceptable number. I think no old school fan minds giannas taking between 3 and 4 3 pointers per game. It is just the ballance that we care about.
The next reason why old school fans like Giannis is his old school mentality.
Now in todays nba where everybody is in love with everybody we hardly see players that have that killer mentality and an old school approach.
But this is where Giannis is different. The first time I really saw his way of thinking was when he was asked if he would like to work out with Lebron James in
the summer.
This is something that always reminds me of the time jordan invited nba all stars to work out with him during the shoot of space jam.
And what was the result, everybody helped jordan to get back in shape. big mistake. and giannis is all lot smarter in this situation. something that old school players also love. lets have a look.

loyalty to his franchise
back in the days we were used to nba superstars staying with their franchise for many years. For example reggie miller pacers, stockton and malone jazz, jordan bulls, ewing knicks, olajuwon rockets. i mean you get the idea. this is something that has changed dramatically. players bounce around the league like crazy, and nobody feels the obligation to win a championship for their franchise.and even worse, everybody wants to be on a super teams in roder to win a championship the easy way. and again this is where giannis is totally different.
Intensitiy on the court.
Another thing that is very much enjoyalbe about giannis is that he is very intense on the court. you can really see that this guy wants to win. this includes bullying his opponent, trash talking and all the good stuff. this is something that was very common back in the days, and unfortunetaly very rar in todays game.

All around game.
I was always a fan of players that had a great all around game. which means you got many offensive weapons, but you are also a great defender.
and giannis is the complete package. Not only is he a great scorer, but also a guy that avg above 5 assits per game, more than 10 boards, and he is somebody that can give you a lot of trouble on the defensive end. He would be a guy who would have fitted perfectly in the nba of the 1990s.
