Just freeze the image at 2:35, and you'll realize how intimidating Galis was. Opponents didn't dare to come close to him because they knew he could vanish into thin air, driving to the lane in a split second. Even Saras, who was considered fast and athletic for his time, couldn't keep up with him. Galis' athleticism, technique, and basketball IQ were so far ahead of his time - a true pioneer

Word!

Marculionis (who was multiple years NBA) has said he was the hardest player he ever defended. And Sabonis has said that if Galis wants to score he will find a way anyway.

The only player who can run into 5 opponents as a strategy! It's like Messi trying to run into Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli, and Buffon to maximize goals. He is the fairest player in all sports as he gave the other team every opportunity to defend - the other coach and players must have been grateful that he ran into them allowing them to defend 5 vs 1 and wondering how they weren't able to stop him. I've watched a lifetime of Messi, Ronaldo, Nadal, Federer, and Djokovic and when I was young I watched a ton of Magic Johnson, Dr. J, Worthy, Kareem, Bird (gosh, they were incredible). As amazing as these people were, Galis is in a different category and that's clear in seconds to anyone who follows sports.

@@brando7266 Galis was actually American and was one of the best players in college. While it's difficult to know if he would have developed his game in the NBA the same way he did in Greece, there's no doubt he was already at Larry Bird and Magic Johnson levels when he went into college. As Red Auerbach, the famous Celtics coach, said his single biggest in his career was not signing Nick Galis. The reason for that was that he had signed Larry Bird and thought that was enough. It would be essentially the same as the Lakers not bringing in Magic Johnson as they had Kareem. The rest is history. To understand how good Galis was, you have to look at Giannis Antetonkoumpo who's MVP but can't replicate what Galis did for the national team because Galis had infinite shooting opportunities as opposed to 2-3 that most NBA legends do. Clearly Giannis assumed he could do the same and wants to prove that against these so-called farmers only to find out that he isn't as good as Galis and has a very different game - Giannis needs a team just like almost every other player does. No offense intended to Giannis who's a phenomenal NBA player and with a good team can be devastating. The reason I replied was to show you how a normal player like you would argue (assume you're a professional player) and then Galis would step and score 30 points on you while you're wondering if you've ever played basketball. National coaches said there was nothing they could do to stop him and that applies to today's game too. It's tough to stop the US national team but it was impossible to stop Galis.

@user-jg8cc9co5b

10 ай бұрын

More like 30 years before. I think you might be right about their game but with an asterisk. Galis in Europe was a combo player and one of the best passers of his generations but here his scoring overshadowed litterally everything. He had immense scoring records with an incredible efficiency of career +60FG%!! However if he had played his entire career in the NBA in the Celtics who drafted him, then Galis would have been a different player. He most likely would have been a first pass player like CP3 and Galis statline probably would resemble very much CP3 statline. With all the great players the Celtics had Galis in the 80s as a PG would average something like 10 assists for the majority of his career and his scoring career numbers would probably have been less than 20ppg not because he didn't have the talent to score, but because he wouldn't take the same amount of shots like he did in Europe. So the European version of Galis was not a player like CP3. However an NBA version of Galis in the Celtics during the 80s and early 90s, well that player would have been very close to the player that CP3 is. But with a huge difference. Galis would have ended with something like 5 or 6 rings whlie CP3 hasn't won anyone. That is why after all Auerbach stated that not signing Galis back then was the only big mistake of his career. Because he felt after seeing the career Galis had and the level of game he reached, that if his Celtics had his as well in the roster with that great team they already had that won 3 rings, they could have made a dynasty being the major force of the 80s instead of the Lakers.
