I might put him third.

Behind Chet, yeah.

He's been, I mean, I wrote in the story, and it sounds like hyperbole, and I genuinely did not mean it as hyperbole.

I really actually meant this.

He's been like the guard version of Giannis.

Okay.

Giannis, like prime Giannis defensive player of the year.

Giannis almost never guarded the other team's best player.

As a matter of fact, it was like kind of controversial that he wouldn't guard the other.

Like there were playoff series against Miami where it's like, why isn't he guarding Jimmy Butler?

Why wouldn't he take Jimmy Butler?

It's like, that's not the best use to be honest.

He is awesome on the ball, but Giannis is best use is put them on the weak side and he will take away half the floor.

It will make sure that he is over in help immediately, that he's protecting the rim, that no passes are going to go by him, that if you do get to the rim, guess what?

There is absolutely no place to kick out to in the weak side corner.

Like he is going to take everything away that he possibly can.

He's going to guard two guys at once.

He's going to be excellent on the backsides of screens.

He's going to communicate everything else.

And he's going to make his impact.
