To a journalist asking him if this season will have been a failure, the double MVP (2019, 2020) replied curtly: “You asked me the same question last year (following the elimination in the conference semi-finals once morest Boston, editor’s note). And you? Do you have a promotion every year? No, that’s it? So does each year of work lead to failure? Yes or no? No”.
“Every year you work towards a goal. There are stages to success. Michael Jordan played 15 years and won six championships. Were the other nine years a failure?” insisted.
“There are days when you can succeed, others when you can’t. There are days when it’s your turn, and days when it’s not your turn. We doesn’t always win. And this year, another team will win. From 1971 to 2021, we haven’t won a championship for 50 years, was it 50 years of failure? No It was stages and we ended up being ready to win one. And hopefully we will win another,” Antetokounmpo continued.
During the fatal defeat once morest the Heat on his floor (128-126 ap), the Greek Freak (the Greek monster) did not deserve with 38 points and 20 rebounds to his credit. But he failed in the exercise of the free throw, succeeding only 10 out of 23 attempted.
“I did not know how to put enough. That’s regarding all. If I had put these shots, the situation would be different. There are days when we succeed, others when we rate. Today was one of those days…”, he breathed.
“I will come back next year, I will take good habits, I will try to be better and I hope to win back a championship,” promised Antetokounmpo, who is only 28, adding: “I will remember it and I don’t want to be in that situation once more. But it’s basketball, so I’m probably going to be in that situation.”
