Attached to his good image among the general public, Giannis Antetokounmpo found himself in a vast controversy a few months ago following a breakdown. Controversy to which he recently returned… by mentioning LeBron James and Stephen Curry.
A fan of schoolboy humor and light punchlines in the media, he nevertheless contains an anger capable of erupting at any moment. Giannis Antetokounmpo showed it last November. Particularly clumsy on the free throw line during a clash against the 76ers, he became quite annoyed after being prevented from working on the exercise at the end of the match:

Giannis complains about his treatment and calls out LeBron & Curry
Like the biggest stars in the league, Giannis would have liked to be able to immediately correct the misstep that had just cost his team the victory.

I can’t even imagine LeBron James, Steph Curry, Hakeem Olajuwon, Trae Young, Luka Doncic, Nikola Jokic or whoever else shooting free throws and being interrupted by some guy or coach. the opposing team, having the ball taken from their hands and hearing, “Hey, stop shooting here, it’s our basket!” »
Through this parallel, Giannis seems to want to make it clear that such a scene would never have happened with other figures in the league. In other words, it would be the subject of a certain fierceness compared to its prestigious counterparts, illustrated by this viral sequence. In any case, he deplores the controversy that the latter has generated, and undoubtedly hopes to never have to experience such an episode again!
Almost a year later, Giannis Antetokounmpo has obviously still not digested the fact of not being able to shoot a few free throws on the 76ers floor. Let’s see if he will be better received during his next trip to Philadelphia on February 25!
