Giannis Antetokounmpo and Bam Adebayo walk out of the tunnel for the first time as teammates:
Bam walking like one of those guys from the beginning of the fifth element.
Probably the best comment I’ve ever seen on here. Legit laughed out loud
The thread of comments below this one is my favourite all time I still probably think about it once a week (I do sadly live in OKC) https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/s/taJo2tc9v0
my all time fav post title was
https://np.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/a2jk68/meyers_leonard_uses_the_body_to_downward_dog/
and my top comment chain had to be

r/nba has sneaky content
He wins the internet for the day! 😂🤣
Funniest gah damn reference possible. Pure reference gold.
That reference was out of control. Everybody knows he’s got the sickest references
This is so meta, it fucked me up
God damn
Wish I had reddit gold to give u for this one
lol reminds me of that GIF of people trying to move the Easter Island statues with ropes.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣frfr
Bam looking like Mario is gonna rock him in an elevator
Hahahaha
Perfect. Google “Mondoshawans walking gif” if youd like to see why this comment is perfection.
Also, go watch 5th Element. It features Gary Oldman’s second best haircut (second to True Romance, obviously)
Such a classic film
Even the bit players are greats. The iconic “gimme da cashhhhhh” guy? He was also the male lead in Amelie and directed films like the masterpiece La Haine!
Why does /r/NBA not allow GIF comments smh
Chefs kiss
So if we tried cloning him we’d end up with Mila Jovovich instead?
First thing I thought of 🤣🤣🤣
“Time not important. Only life important”
I just watched that on a flight like 3 weeks ago, such a good movie.
Heartwarming. One of the greatest players of his generation welcoming the new youngblood to the team
Wilt. Bam. Kobe.
In that order
The greatest scorer of all time
& Podz
They hotboxing the joint?
Yeah wtf. We the Miami Blaze
Miami Puff lmao
Ayyo pause
Apparently thats something arenas do before every single game to “make the photo shots look better”
lol is it to simulate the oldschool boxing photos like Ali? I recall people saying those pics look so cool cuz the indoor smoking laws at the time
“Can you drop 83 again sometime next season?”
“Better yet, just do it every game”
This defense is going to be insane when they’re healthy. With Davion Mitchell too?? Jeezus
I’m surprised no one is mentioning Mitchell , its about to be lock city
Wiggins might not be in his prime anymore but he will give you defense on the wing too. The Spo will play guys who put up effort.
I think they’ll have the best defense in the league next year
They’re still missing 3-4 pieces before lock city. The bench is all empty right now too.
Well Giannis has 3 brothers so…
it’s about to be lock city on both sides of the court, if Norm Powell leaves in free agency then Wiggins will be their best shooter lmao
Oh no the 40% 3pt shooter is going to be our best shooter
he shot 40% last year, sure. but he’s a career 36.2% 3pt shooter my guy
They lowkey can afford to get a guard who’s a liability on defense
Perhaps someone like Tyler herro
Buy low on fox?
Every apron in the CBA would like a word
Haha I was thinking Anfernee Simmons. also kicking the tires on Cam Thomas if you guys can’t fix him no one can
Oh for sure i just find it funny how we finally have the team to maximize Tyler and he gone. Cam thomas is a fun one if spo could just clockwork orange him
Herro not being a Heat feels so weird :/
Just two Nigerians, Giannis about to make it 5 with his 3 brothers soon
I dont think we’re allowed to say that word
Its okay I’m African
You’re the Elon kind though.
Nah I’m East African fr I got the big forehead to prove it
So you Arab?
The European kind?
(reading your reply and) all I can think about is this mean girls scene
https://youtu.be/z8wrqe72YG4
my goat is creating his own greek national team to coach
ohhh that’s count for something right?!
Lmaoo
“We’re gonna win not one title. Not two titles. But mostly just not one title.”
“Not one, not two, not three…”
“Titles?”
“Antetokounmpo brothers.”
Perfect
I’m not ready for wemby to go against this
dont worry, itll only be two regular season gaems a year
Wipe me down still going strong 15 years later 🎶
Here’s to another 15, cheers 🥂
Is that future on it thou?
He looks so happy god showed him the way to South Beach
Will take care of him Fam, also I hope are youngins gonna be good with the Bucks too.
We good brother. Hopefully we can rebuild ourself similar to Detroit. We’ll send Thanasis once he’s done packing
Just a pair of Yoruba boys
This is actually an interesting pairing. I’m not great with NBA rosters, but I can’t think of the last time a team was structured around two really good big men. It just feels like in recent history most of the fanfare is made about guard play and shooting.
AD and Cousins in New Orleans.
And them two were scary when healthy.
Too bad boogie got hurt and then they broke it up 😞 never really got to see them make a real run the flashes we did see were pretty impressive
Bro I had them beating you guys that season. That Achilles tear was brutal.
The way AD & DMC cooked in that Portland series with Jrue sonning the ever living fuck out of Dame was so crazy.
Bam is no where near close to AD or Prime Cousins
Bro what. Bam is way more impact full than prime cousins. You’re trippin
Bams culture setting alone puts him above boogie.
Edey and Boozer in Memphis will be fun to watch
Two words – Edey and Boozer, must see TV
Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol. Also, lakers with LeBron and AD.
Yeah I’m interested as well but the spacing will probably be bad since they’re not known for their long range.
The Cavs during Black History Month
Giannis presence in the paint will allow Bam to really dig deep into his bag. Bam is gonna feast next season
People said this about dame…. Bam isn’t quite the floor stretcher that I see working with Giannis
Dame was also like, a fossil in Milwaukee
At the time of the trade people didnt claim that
Dame had 25/5/7 on 62 TS with Giannis, the rest of their team (and Dames defence) was ass
A match made in heaven. I hate that it took so long but here we are 🔥
Wild takes from everyone about this trade. Let’s just watch basketball
You are on a platform created to discuss topics.
Let’s just watch basketball
I would if I could but it’s not the start of the season!
The ride ya, guide ya Naijas 🇳🇬 🇳🇬
Tbh Giannis is probably more igbo than yoruba
Who is BBQing inside the building?
It makes the most logical sense to have the draft right after the season ends but now I’m excited to see these teams play and we have forever until the action starts 😭
Nothing to see here, they just share the same agent. It means nothing
They’re close even before this trade, they worked out together years ago. And even has each others no.
This frontcourt is gonna be a problem for modern bigs like wemby, chet, mobley
giannis please come to the cathy cup too, brooklyn needs you 🙏
“…so that’s how I got 83 points that one night.”
anyone know the song title playing in the background?
The play-in has never looked better!
Nigeria in town🇳🇬
Not 1, not 2, but 3 playoff appearances
Swaying so much thought they were strolling to this song at first lmao
Bam is just showing Gianni’s where his brothers can sit
And no one cares…
[deleted]
They share the same agent. You think this is the first time they hang out?
that frontcourt is freaky… goodluck east..
Ok
2 guys shooting 30$ from 3.. not gonna work at all
Mid team in the east no title contention
Gross
Keep crying. Thanks for the Greek freak
