Why is he posting like he's promoting an onlyfans

spikestonehand.com•634 days ago

Quote tweets are meant for dunks and dunks alone

ouisequitur.bsky.social•634 days ago

didn't kd just say "my alt signed up, go find me"? that's way better

endomorphism.bsky.social•634 days ago

One of my biggest pet peeves is when people arbitrarily apply foreign grammar to loan words long after their widespread adoption, like when people insist on "the data are" or "culs de sac". Wait, no, we're not supposed to respond to the engagement bait. Nevermind.

girlfriend.bsky.social•634 days ago

Do you think they gave him some cash for posting

turmericjames.bsky.social•634 days ago

giannis has such a pure soul maybe he just believes that social media can be a place for true connection

shutupashley02.bsky.social•634 days ago

I genuinely am impressed at how shit thread is

shutupashley02.bsky.social•634 days ago

Like I thought it would be weird because you know meta but I couldn't have imagined it would be this bad

petexn.bsky.social•634 days ago

I feel like no social team expected so many signups the first day and they all had the B team on call for it

jackjackington.bsky.social•634 days ago

knowing he won’t see 99.9 percent of it lol

maid.dating•634 days ago

I post more often than this guy and I still think he needs to touch grass

dominantdeluise.bsky.social•634 days ago

the antithesis of KD

johanmoreno.com•634 days ago

How much did Meta pay these influencers? lmaoo The place will look dead like every other project Meta has launched once the money stops flowing

rockthekoopa.bsky.social•634 days ago

he's not an influencer, he's like the second best basketball player in the world lmao

this only makes it sadder

goodkid-saadcity.bsky.social•634 days ago

he’s very funny when he posts phone videos of himself trolling his wife, it’s disappointing

labuzamovies.com•634 days ago

MOST PEOPLE GET THIS MATH PROBLEM WRONG YOU TRY NOW

It's 36, isn't it? It's always 36.

logjwben.bsky.social•634 days ago

Giannis is the best even if he did this. 😂

edrevelator34.bsky.social•634 days ago

(honestly wondering if he has someone else handle it for him)

goodkid-saadcity.bsky.social•634 days ago

lol probably his benchwarming brother thanasis

hammancheez.bsky.social•634 days ago

that has big 'I have a dude who does my thread account for me' energy

blippy.bsky.social•634 days ago

almost certainly some paid guy at Meta cranking these out for him

conroy.org•634 days ago

Honestly these feel authentic coming from Giannis

caylen.bsky.social•634 days ago

bunch of the big entertainment talent agencies (sports, film, tv, music, etc) were solicited by FB starting 2 weeks ago to ask if their firms/clients were interested in ad credits/boosted accts in exchange for Going Big & we're suffering the fallout of social media employees in a tough labor market

joekatz45.bsky.social•634 days ago

You know what would probably get him a lot of engagement? TALKING ABOUT BASKETBALL

michaeli.bsky.social•634 days ago

Giannis has talent but he is still an undeniable herb

storyteller.bsky.social•634 days ago

There's so much engagement baiting over there rn. They have be trying to drive numbers to impress their Board and put case studies together for advertisers. It's all about money.

wiseposter.bsky.social•634 days ago

lol

lolifer.bsky.social•634 days ago

people on there are getting paid. they’ve gotta be

jenmsft.bsky.social•634 days ago

Threads like this can be fun sometimes to see what people will say (like, I'm an /r/AskReddit fan, and do them myself sometimes too), but having a whole bunch posted in a row like this does make it feel like engagement bait

chris.chabot.dev•634 days ago

You know Thread reminds me of iTunes ping

That was also a platform for celebrities to broadcast their thoughts to their fans, and also completely missed the point

yodacat.bsky.social•634 days ago

Zuck is paying so much money for these posts...

krampuslindholm.bsky.social•634 days ago

Jimmy Butler broke him so badly he has to grindstone post

carterforva.bsky.social•634 days ago

Basketball superstar on 4 continents.

ponchis.bsky.social•634 days ago

kieffercities.com•634 days ago

roevwadeboggs.bsky.social•634 days ago

carterforva.bsky.social•634 days ago

Correct.

lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com•634 days ago

giannis antetokounmpo AKA "the greek freak" is a power forward for the milwaukee bucks, a 2x NBA mvp before he was 26, a 7x NBA all stat, and the 2021 NBA finals mvp in the bucks' first championship win in 50 years

acabylonbee.bsky.social•634 days ago

I think he's recovering from an injury right now? Glad he's enjoying his time off regardless

stickytable.bsky.social•634 days ago

That's such a great nickname. He needs a rival called "The Turkish Terror"

mestizhoe.bsky.social•634 days ago

Future New York Knickerbocker

lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com•634 days ago

as someone who wants to see him to get another ring: no fave

mestizhoe.bsky.social•634 days ago

😔

thejjar.bsky.social•634 days ago

But cmon it would kick so much ass if he got that ring as a knick

carterforva.bsky.social•634 days ago

what language is this what's happening

carterforva.bsky.social•634 days ago

Oh. Okay.

katiesomethign.bsky.social•634 days ago

pykea.bsky.social•634 days ago

comrades educating comrades u love to see it

jessefuchs.bsky.social•634 days ago

A condescending amount of information for him, a genuinely helpful amount of information for your median follower. An exemplary post.

stahl.bsky.social•634 days ago

the anti-Kevin Durant

itskane.bsky.social•634 days ago

KD’s Wario

soulcab.bsky.social•634 days ago

Meh, it's all engagement baiting no matter the platform or whose account.

impemboganecue.bsky.social•634 days ago

He should be posting about buffalo wings, corn dogs, such things. His social media team should be fired immediately. His "engagement bait" is being very good at basketball

fiveburger.bsky.social•634 days ago

i hope he’s at least getting that money

roevwadeboggs.bsky.social•634 days ago

You'll NEVER see Joker doing this shit lol

mwz.bsky.social•634 days ago

Meta probably knows some shit about Giannis at this point

theamitie.bsky.social•634 days ago

The Giannis Alper
