From The Point of View of Giannis Antetokounpo

I am man enough to admit it...Yes, I do love to see people suffer, I love to make people feel the pain I have felt all of my life. But this is not because I am an evil individual on my own. I slowly turned this way over time, because of my life experiences. My beginnings are very humble, I was born in Athens, Greece to Nigerian immigrants and I am the middle child, I have two older brothers and two younger ones. Even though I wasn't the oldest, I was still expected to succeed at the highest level possible at anything I do. My father forced all of his sons to live up to his highest expectations, no matter how high they may seem to us...

I can only blame one person for my love of basketball, it all began when my older brother, Thanasis introduced me to the sport. When we first began to play the sport, we shared the same pair of shoes to practice on a local basketball court in our neighborhood. My father was very proud that we were interested in the sport. If not, he would've forced us to play some sport whether it was football or basketball, he was determined to turn his sons into great, successful, and athletic "Men." My dad was basically Joe Jackson, but with sports... To many of you my comment may have made you laugh, but I am dead ass serious when I say that...
