Giannis Antetokounmpo puts an end to the whole ‘World Champs’ debate.
“I think some people don’t understand it. Maybe it’s an arrogance thing. In soccer, which is way bigger than the NBA the UCL champions don’t say they’re world champions.”

I know it’s getting old, but I don’t get how Americans still don’t understand what Noah Lyles said.
They don’t get the point behind the statement. It was about time an NBA superstar in Giannis Antetokounmpo stood up for him.
The NBA is a domestic league. Not a global league. – 10:52 AM

So Giannis plans to get some tutoring from Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon (master of footwork and post moves) before the season? Excellent.
Might want to seek out HOFer Rick Barry (career FT% .893) while he’s at it.

Now, Giannis Antetokounmpo, in an appearance on the 48 Minutes podcast on Bleav, reiterated those intentions of his, as, simply put, he just wants to win. Now whether that happens with the Bucks or another team is a different question entirely. “I am a winner. I want to be a winner. Contracts, fame, status, comfort zone does not matter to me,” Antetokounmpo said, before literally pointing out that what truly matters to him is winning a championship. -via Clutch Points / September 13, 2023
NBA commenter Bill Simmons of The Ringer recently dropped a major bold prediction about the future of the Knicks’ franchise. “They’ll get one of those three guys, I guarantee,” said Simmons on the Bill Simmons Podcast. “Giannis [Antetokounmpo], [Joel] Embiid, or [Donovan] Mitchell will be on that team a year from now.” -via Clutch Points / September 13, 2023
