[Toronto Villa]

I’ve just been advised that their MVP nickname is the Greek Freak.   I’m hoping that’s not disrespectful!

It’s what he is known as here and it’s all to do with his astonishing ability. At his size he simply shouldn’t be able to do a lot of things he can. It’s very much a term of endearment.

Also from last night

“I could go to a Super team and just do my part and win, but this is the hard way to do it and the right way to do it. And we did it. We did it. We f%*ing did it.” Giannis #Bucks #NBa

Just imagine this is Jack saying this

I'm probably like most on here, wouldn't know one end of a basketball bat from the other. And if it hadn't been that I didn't get in from work til 3am I most likely would never have watched. But there's something about Giannis, how he moves, the seemingly effortless languid style that only the best in any sport are ever blessed with, that makes him very watchable. Edens, he knows what people want to watch.

And you know, it was a pleasant change to not have an emotional moment detracted by a "we'd just like to apologise for any strong language our viewers might have heard there."

When you watch the very best in any sport - Simone Biles and Wayne Gretzky, Tom Brady, Messi most recent example in football you don't need to know all that much about it to see how good they are. Giannis will never surpass Jordan (due to his massive influence on sportswear marketing) but he could match him on court

Yep, that's how i look at it, seeing the quality of some players requires an understanding of the game, and how you rate them depends on personal preferences in play style, etc but sometimes you get world class talents who stand out regardless of how much you know about the sport. I think Jack is getting towards that point now as well and I think our owners see clear comparisons between him and Giannis and are trying to build around him in the same way.

I know nothing about basketball, but he looks a bit good:

Same here as haven't watched much NBA in recent years but worth noting one of his middle names is 'Ugo'

Lovely! Made me smile.

More evidence that Wes isn't a guy who's content to be there 'just to make up the numbers'. https://twitter.com/MedensEdens/status/1417888492181409792

[Brend'Watkins]

That's an eye opener.  The Bucks' value has risen from $300 million to $1.6 billion? Don't know if that's the truth but it's quite staggering. I guess that's all based around having the hottest most sought after talent playing for them and maybe the reason why Villa's value is now £300 million (something I heard the other day) with JG on the books.

I'd guess it's because Giannis/Grealish will sell shirts to people who don't have a strong tie to a particular team in the UK.  A bit like, when I was a kid, I had a Fiorentina shirt with 'Batistuta' on the back.  Never been within 100km of Florence, never seen Fiorentina play except a couple of games on Football Italia.  Someone like Grealish is the same.  People will buy Villa shirts because (a) we've got probably the 2nd best name (behind Spurs) in the league, and (b) arguably the best player in the league in Jack.

Tottenham Hotspur / Spurs is a good name, like something you'd have in Roy of the Rovers.  I'd give them that. 

Ours is comfortably the next best IMO.  Plymouth Argyle is a good name too, I think.  Then there's a massive drop off.
