Fun Fact for the haters: Giannis has already at 26 done somthing that neither LBJ nor KD could accomplish. He won his first chip without a superteam....
Compared to the sh*t Giannis had to put up with here in Greece during his early age, the NBA media "hate" is just a distant noise to his ears! This guy deserves all the good things in life and the respect from every true basketball fan! He's already a legend!
Yea but he won cuz of injuries mosty but if he wins another one with the league healthy then hes a true legend but I know he can do it so he's a legend in my book
You are totally right but also never dream too much to you get to the point where you stop hustling.. Giannis Dedication & Grind Got better and better 🤷🏾♂️
Yeah that was cool how he had the confidence that he was going to make it one day.. by the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel might might interest some people!
It's great to see how humble Giannis is, he actually went up and shook the raptors hands after the bucks lost to them in 2019 ECF, most of the "superstars" would just walk out all pissed looking for the next super team to play with. Not Giannis, he kept grinding with people he trusted and has built something beautiful. Giannis is an amazing player on the court and an amazing person off the court and that's something you don't see a lot of when the super stardom gets to other players heads. Much respect for Giannis. You're building something long lasting here in Milwaukee and us in the 414 salute you!!!!!
Just looking at his resume and comparing it to those who have similar resumes or even close, I can confidently say Giannis fans are in for a long historic ride throughout his career
@@donmogsleyforever the harder the difficulty the greater the rewards. There is no such thing as an asterisk champion but not all chips are made equal.
The most amazing thing about Giannis is that he never gave up on his dream. He lived in poor conditions when he was in Greece, he shared his shoes with his brother cause they had only one pair, he shared his Fanta cause they couldn't afford to pay for a second,they lived in a small apartment in a poor neighborhood in Athens, he helped his family from a young age selling things on the streets. Only respect for this man and his amazing family... He helps people in need here in Greece without anyone knows,he gives a lot and that means he's a HUMAN LEGEND,a big heart,a humble person...Thank you Giannis for making Greeks proud again!!!💚💚💚
Giannis story is like a real life movie and the best part is that we're not even half way through yet. Personally i believe he will end up as one of the GOATs basketball has seen
Giannis's ring has the most weight since MJ's first ring and Mav's Dirk. The ender and conqueror of super teams. Man just unbelievable. Get 5 more ring Giannis, challenge the Goat!
@@davidknowles605 Leave the man out of this just let him rest in peace cause he'll tell ya he got the greatest coach of all time and a prime Pao. Chill
I think Giannis is disrespected because he isn't an American. He is culturally different, and he doesn't fit the stereotype of the angry, cool NBA player. He is nice, fun-loving and he isn't American. So, small-minded Americans don't like him.
As an old school Jordan fan, Giannis gets nothing but respect from me. He is on that list. Bird, Magic, Jordan, Kobe, Duncan, Giannis. I don't care if ever wins another one. His means more.
@@Riri-oj1zs literally carried a trash team for his first 7 years but everybody just forget mikes first 9 years? Be honest now mike didn’t win until Scottie came cavs didn’t have no one but bro. Ball is still a team sport.
@@pullout_jay2317 Mike's team was trash as well in his early years. Did he leave? No. He made use of what he had and made his teammates better. Did LeBron make his teammates better?

@@netstomb8707 and magic is an all time great who may or may not have been in the goat conversation of not for the whole hiv thing. What's your point? Also there's a jxmy highroller video about how easy titles were, from a year ago during the whole "mickey mouse ring" thing. Go check it out.
Once this guy learn how to shot from mid range and long range, oh my lord and RIP to the NBA. He's already unstoppable and him shooting would make him probably the most unstoppable force ever in NBA history…
@@JustAnotherPerson55 Mj had a pretty solid three pointer if you gave him time to shoot it. 3 point contest did him dirty but you wouldn’t give him that shot in a real game.
Being Greek started closely following him from the draft. Never expected he'd get a ring at Milwakee. The question now is will he be the GOAT? He is only 26...
In his position in the court he might be one of the greatest, but to beat the GOAt MICHAEL JORDAN it seems far from now… hope he keep doing like this… amazing dominant player
@@vachalex I feel like its unfair to compare people from different timelines I feel no one is the goat If to be a goat means to have the most rings or have the highest points per game then its possible to say who is the goat But you are talking about skill from the 1990's and 2010-20's Who knows if 1990 generation is better or worse than 2020 generation
If he keeps on going he will definitely enter the conversation. I remember when Jordan was playing it was him and Wilt Chamberlain. Now it's Jordan and LeBron. Could very well be LeBron and Giannis next. Just being mentioned in that conversation is legendary enough
Giannis is such a positive influence on anybody in NBA and in the world. Perseverance, hard work and self-belief is a hella combination. Thank you for this amazing video on a such great and humble human being and NBA player. BTW who da hell is cutting onions?
Hardworks paid off ...He's goal is to be an nba player but GOD made him a champion ..He deserve it...With all of his heartbreaks during last few years finally he made it..Like to tell my son one day that once in Nba there comes a bucks legend named GIANNIS ANTETOKOUMPO
giannis is the best player in the NBA, i alwaysed believed in giannis, i knew he would get a championship, best nba finals peformance ever, go bucks!!!
"Always want for more, but never be greedy." Man was raised right. Got an amazing support system from family and friends, that only added to his work ethic. Got so much respect for this guy.
A very positive guy. A good example of being humble and the real picture of hardwork. Sometimes he fail but he never stops and now he is in the top of the top.. he always be reminded us of how hardworks and never stop dreaming and do all you can to reach your dream.
So happy for this man.. deserves everything of this world! I remember back in ‘13 we wanted to sign him at olympiakos.. thank god the bucks believed in him and made him unleash his full potential in the nba !!
His name is already written in the book of the basketball legends! 50 years later, 50 points in the Finals! What an impressive performance! Respect Giannis! You deserved that! 😉😎 From a lifelong Lakers fan..

I love giannis’s playstyle, his attitude and his grind to get where he is now. He can win a championship without all the best players on his team, he does what he has to do to get to this stage. When he first got drafted he was this 6’7 190 pound kid now he’s this 6’11 242 pound freak of nature. He did that by putting all the work in, hours in the gym. I love that he’s just living his dream, giannis is one of or the hardest worker in the leauge.
I swear a year ago half of y'all were saying he should leave the Bucks and he was overrated and a choker and now he's a legend and inspirational and the best player in the league. Us real Bucks fans have been here watching him grow since 2013 and turning one of the worst teams in NBA history in to a contender year after year. Every single day through the playoffs I wore one of my Giannis jerseys (even under my work clothes) and slept with my Bucks t shirt on. We kept the faith and knew he could do it and he proved the doubters wrong in the most incredible way possible. Shout out to Brandon Jennings too! BUCKS IN 6 BABY THEY DID IT
30:03 You can see he was humble from the beginning. He hesitated there because what he really wanted to say was "I wanna be an NBA champion". But the kid was humble.
brought tears to my eyes man...when will people ever understand that this is more than a game❤ Giannis I tip my hat to ya. And whoever made this vid man you good. God bless
im so sad his mom and dad couldnt be at his draft. thank you herb kohl for your tireless efforts with the milwaukee bucks. and especially your month/S long process of getting giannis family there visas from the messed up situation in greece
Giannis does what a lot of players can’t and that’s making the players Around him better. You don’t see too many Lakers coming out amazing but look at the box they built himself a solid team without Giannis it wouldn’t be possible
Giannis is a great young men. He is the a great Greek athlete. He thrives wen he’s fighting against the odds. It’s the mentality of his family and our country. Ευχαριστούμε Ιωάννη Αντετοκούμπο .
so beautiful-amazing-tough-sweet journey he had! last 3 years everyone is hating him , call him overated because he didnt win a chip! now tho boys, now that he won a chip , the presure- the hate- the anxiety for achieving something has gone, YOU ARE GONNA SEE THE REAL MVP
this is it! this is what I’ve been looking for. What an exceptional video. no annoying, unnecessary narration, just let the footage tell the story. kind of reminds me of the 30 for 30 doc “June 17, 1994”. you manage to tell a compelling story simply by selecting clips deliberately and seamlessly editing it. bravo!!
The Grind is real .. Great way to highlight that Grind on there Championship journey.. When you Earned it .. It taste so much better.!! True Champions💯
Giannis is a breath of fresh air for the Center position. He’s a TRUE Center, and I love that he doesn’t conform to the modern day 3pt shooting big man
It's such an inspire for the whole world he make me to start believing in my dreams and there's hope and the life is so good because of you giannis I love you
How can you not like him? His game is a hybrid of new school, and old school. You literally can ONLY HOPE to contain him. And, that never works, lol. Kind of like Jordan back in the day, bulls fan or not, you turned on the tv to watch Mike. You know you are witnessing greatness when he steps on the court.
I want to be an NBA Player (He didn't even say he wants to be an NBA Champion). He didn't even knew what he is capable off before that hard work he put in.
Giannas is my favorite player not just because he is good. But it’s because he came from nothing and still won a championship. He also carried his team to their first win in 50 years
Sorry Giannis, you’ll never just be an NBA player... you’ve surpassed that. You have already established yourself as an NBA legend! 😂 I’ll always show love to the man and the team that made basketball more than entertaining for me ❤️
Gianni's is my favorite player I remember always playing with him on 2k when he was just a rookie and a 60 overall. My homies didn't know who he was they just use to say why do you always play with him. I just hope he stays humble which I think he will because that adds a lot to him as a player and person in my opinion and that's also one of the reasons I like him.
whats incredible is at the start when he is being interviewed and just starting to get recognized, some days he was going without food, one time in practice he passed out on the floor.... read his book its a great inspiring story
Guess this mini movie is a blessing,started playing like half a year ago.This made me a Giannis fan.I started put in the work,got my first dunk and still working at being consistent.Thank you!
giannis is my favorite player just because of his attitude and grit, his journey has just been so incredible. usually when players get drafted they think that they are the real deal and start slacking off but giannis just kept working harder, that right there is insane
One of the best videos out there!!
Thank you :)
Trueee!
And back to back mvps with 1 defensive player of thee year and 1 most improved of the year award
Fun Fact for the haters: Giannis has already at 26 done somthing that neither LBJ nor KD could accomplish. He won his first chip without a superteam....
You can compliment Giannis without bringing up other superstars lol
TELL THEM!! PREACH BROTHER PREACH!!
without a superteam? 😆😆😆😆😆🤡
@@Bankstakingflight go on tell us why it is one?
name the other former franchise players on the Bucks roster.... I ll wait....
Facts
It's so iconic the first person to pass Giannis the ball in his first game for a layup attempt was Middleton. And now they've won a chip together.
Compared to the sh*t Giannis had to put up with here in Greece during his early age, the NBA media "hate" is just a distant noise to his ears! This guy deserves all the good things in life and the respect from every true basketball fan! He's already a legend!
Gonna be one of 10 when he retires or after his prime
GIANNIS did it in 8 years With the Same team ! Unfortunately Moses Malone had to go to Philadelphia with dr. J to win a title
Facts people with real basketball knowledge understand why this man is extremely talented and how humble he is
Yea but he won cuz of injuries mosty but if he wins another one with the league healthy then hes a true legend but I know he can do it so he's a legend in my book
ua-cam.com/video/aa7OhUl6zxk/v-deo.html
"I want to be NBA player" this statement is everything.....dream and work hard to over achieve !
💯💯
Yep I agree this should be the title of his movie
You are totally right but also never dream too much to you get to the point where you stop hustling.. Giannis Dedication & Grind Got better and better 🤷🏾♂️
Giannis kept it real not knowing that he should aim higher as the best NBA player.
The sequence of the retired numbers gave me chills. He is going to hang there as well. Loyalty and hard work pays off
Legend💯
Yeah that was cool how he had the confidence that he was going to make it one day.. by the way, the videos on the playlist on my channel might might interest some people!
Absolutely,where loyalty is forgotten in this era in the NBA it’s great to see where he is immensely appreciated before a pay check 👏👏👏👏

Yeah cp3 just walked into the lockers
U couldn’t possibly be more right
Agreed and Jordan always did the same despite what some say. It's a real champion quality. This playoffs is going to be exciting to watch
you couldn’t be more accurate
Just looking at his resume and comparing it to those who have similar resumes or even close, I can confidently say Giannis fans are in for a long historic ride throughout his career
Been a supporter since his sophomore year watched every game. I still cant believe where my boy is rn
If Giannis and the Bucks keep on winning they can create an era where it could rival MJ's Bulls.

I love that he’s just living his dream, giannis is one of or the hardest worker in the leauge.
🇬🇷
Giannis is a freak. Humble, athletic, long. Happy for this man
💯
That clip of him explaining having his Jersey retired to his dad gets me every time
When all is said and done, I really think Giannis could be a top 10 player of all time
Can be top 5 to 3. He is already easily top 25
I swear a year ago half of y'all were saying he should leave the Bucks and he was overrated and a choker and now he's a legend and inspirational and the best player in the league. Us real Bucks fans have been here watching him grow since 2013 and turning one of the worst teams in NBA history in to a contender year after year. Every single day through the playoffs I wore one of my Giannis jerseys (even under my work clothes) and slept with my Bucks t shirt on. We kept the faith and knew he could do it and he proved the doubters wrong in the most incredible way possible.
Shout out to Brandon Jennings too! BUCKS IN 6 BABY THEY DID IT
❤️❤️
30:03 You can see he was humble from the beginning. He hesitated there because what he really wanted to say was "I wanna be an NBA champion". But the kid was humble.
brought tears to my eyes man...when will people ever understand that this is more than a game❤ Giannis I tip my hat to ya. And whoever made this vid man you good. God bless
Thanks for watching bruh,, show some support for more videos like this😁
That's what you call "A champion in the making"... Well deserved.
Giannis haters " Run and dunk " 😅. Then the heat, nets, Hawks and Suns lost by a run and dunk player... Giannis the best
BEEN SAID THISSS👏
Making all his bashers eat their words is his greatest achievement.
💯💯
Jesus Christ loves you
Imagine watching to dislike the most honorable dude in the nba💪🏾 everybody’s entitled to an opinion but come on the intro should’ve been enough
cant hate this guy
This video gave me chills, tears and joy. Let's repeat.
thank you
2 Time Re-Peat with Giannis 2nd finals Mvp against the Warriors in the Finals. *Mark my Words*!.
this video is dope
gave me chills
thx buddy
im so sad his mom and dad couldnt be at his draft. thank you herb kohl for your tireless efforts with the milwaukee bucks. and especially your month/S long process of getting giannis family there visas from the messed up situation in greece
Always want more, but never be greedy. Something to live by❤
People say he can't shoot. He made the best free throws in the finals and win 🏆 hands down. Best story in NBA.
Giannis does what a lot of players can’t and that’s making the players Around him better. You don’t see too many Lakers coming out amazing but look at the box they built himself a solid team without Giannis it wouldn’t be possible
"Maybe 15 20 years my number will be up there." Yes it will Giannis....yes it will.
Shed a tear....great video. Thanks from a GRΣΣΚ 🙏
Appreciate that bro
S/o to Thanasis. Been happy for his brother since day one🙌🏾
Giannis is a great young men. He is the a great Greek athlete. He thrives wen he’s fighting against the odds. It’s the mentality of his family and our country. Ευχαριστούμε Ιωάννη Αντετοκούμπο .
so beautiful-amazing-tough-sweet journey he had! last 3 years everyone is hating him , call him overated because he didnt win a chip! now tho boys, now that he won a chip , the presure- the hate- the anxiety for achieving something has gone, YOU ARE GONNA SEE THE REAL MVP
Well the Greeks had 12 Gods in Antiquity.....nowdays they found their missing 13th!
Fire cmt🔥🔥
@@lightinghoops great job 👏 This is an amazing documentary!!!
@@nickdrexler8071 thx for watching!! and glad to see you liked this
Jordan, that's absolutely right🔥 He is the Greek God of Basketball💪🏽
@@ghostcommando14348 GIANNIS ANTETOKOUMNPO FUTURE HALL OF FAMER WILL BE CONSIDER AS ONE OF TH GRETEST PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL PLAYERS OF ALL TIME ,💪🙏
He really deserves this tho.He’s put in so much work it’s crazy
He’s so humble and a kind person. He will be a retired number someday. And possibly the greatest player of all time if he wanted too.
I'm so proud of Giannis. I hope my boy Lamelo will also lead his team to championships. No matter how long I'm willing to wait and witness history.
GIANNIS!!!!JUST PERFECT!!!!!
"Maybe 15 or 20 years, my name will be up there..", bruh u've done it in 8 or 9.
this is it! this is what I’ve been looking for. What an exceptional video. no annoying, unnecessary narration, just let the footage tell the story. kind of reminds me of the 30 for 30 doc “June 17, 1994”. you manage to tell a compelling story simply by selecting clips deliberately and seamlessly editing it. bravo!!
Thank you 😊
The Grind is real .. Great way to highlight that Grind on there Championship journey.. When you Earned it .. It taste so much better.!! True Champions💯
🔥
I came all the way from the Disney movie RISE ♥️♥️♥️♥️
A story of perseverance.
His family and country is very proud of him .
This video is a freaking dope! Goosebumps. Salute brother!
Thx man
Giannis is a breath of fresh air for the Center position. He’s a TRUE Center, and I love that he doesn’t conform to the modern day 3pt shooting big man
He’s a power forward I think
I love this kid
Hes like a superman
He is a superman💯💯
It's such an inspire for the whole world he make me to start believing in my dreams and there's hope and the life is so good because of you giannis I love you
How can you not like him? His game is a hybrid of new school, and old school. You literally can ONLY HOPE to contain him. And, that never works, lol. Kind of like Jordan back in the day, bulls fan or not, you turned on the tv to watch Mike. You know you are witnessing greatness when he steps on the court.
I want to be an NBA Player (He didn't even say he wants to be an NBA Champion). He didn't even knew what he is capable off before that hard work he put in.
so true
When you want to be an NBA player but God says *"How about I put you in the hall of fame"*
Giannas is my favorite player not just because he is good. But it’s because he came from nothing and still won a championship. He also carried his team to their first win in 50 years
Sorry Giannis, you’ll never just be an NBA player... you’ve surpassed that. You have already established yourself as an NBA legend! 😂 I’ll always show love to the man and the team that made basketball more than entertaining for me ❤️
I don't follow Basketball very well , but I am proud of what i just witness, I heard someone speak glowingly of him, That's how I landed here.
He’s amazing when he got eliminated from the raps he said I will work better to improve even though he was the best
One of the best videos I’ve watched so far. Giannis deserves respect from those who criticized him since day one. Thanks for making this video.
thank you,, for watching the video
You did it, Giannis. Do the thing you best and NBA champion will call your name again.
Giannis has had such a hard life that he knows that when you get your shot you need to take it, hold onto it and never take it for granted
I love him so much for the fact that he did not forget the country he was born, grew up and gave him the opportunity to become the best NBA player.
Gianni's is my favorite player I remember always playing with him on 2k when he was just a rookie and a 60 overall. My homies didn't know who he was they just use to say why do you always play with him. I just hope he stays humble which I think he will because that adds a lot to him as a player and person in my opinion and that's also one of the reasons I like him.
cant believe this video has just 1.3k views, its gon grow more keep it up
Thx brother appreciate that
100k 👀
500k+ 👀
oops
1m+
Holiday behind the back, Middleton back to Holiday, holiday to portis for the dunk that play was legendary
whats incredible is at the start when he is being interviewed and just starting to get recognized, some days he was going without food, one time in practice he passed out on the floor.... read his book its a great inspiring story
Chills...shedded a tear during the MVP speech , something about his words and the music choice . 😌
Sports world is the best world where all races come together for a common goal...becomin Champions 😖😭❤️
Guess this mini movie is a blessing,started playing like half a year ago.This made me a Giannis fan.I started put in the work,got my first dunk and still working at being consistent.Thank you!
He make his mentor proud Kobe Bryant Giannis is the best player in NBA!!
Kobe would be proud
Truly Moving.
If I meet him in person, I will shake his hand. There’s hope for the nba.
I never doubt on you Greek Freak ! No.1 fan from Philippines
Love this video. His humble beginnings and hardworking attitude is one to strive for.
Thank you for watching
giannis is my favorite player just because of his attitude and grit, his journey has just been so incredible. usually when players get drafted they think that they are the real deal and start slacking off but giannis just kept working harder, that right there is insane
