Not long ago, when Giannis highlights and stories started showing up on national websites, you could easily find some version of this in the comment section:
This guy is incredibly overhyped. He's athletic and interesting, but can we wait until he actually does something significant before we crown him a future All-NBA player? I don't ask for much, either dominance at lower levels or even a full game of brilliance at this one. However, he's done neither. As of now, he's a non-difference maker on the worst team in the league, playing in the worst conference in recent memory.
