Giannis Antetokounmpo: “Middleton can have all the records”

Only pride and love for him Chris Middleton has o John Antetokounmpo and he proved it once again in his remarks after the game against the Pistons in which Middleton moved into third place in all-time scoring in Milwaukee Bucks history.

“It’s a great privilege to be the third all-time for the Bucks. It’s not easy to get there. I hope when we finish our careers we can hold all the recordssaid the Greek Freak who scored his sixth triple double of the year in the same phase that Middleton overtook Glenn Robinson.

“I respect this guy a lot. If you have followed his journey closely then you have seen how hard he has worked. Every year he comes back better. He has given everything for the game, he loves the game, he is committed to the game. We have played together in 715 to 720 games. We will probably play 1000 games together. One pushes the other, look where we are now 11 years later and where we will be when we stopsaid Giannis, who is now in his 11th season with the American small forward.

“I have to give credit to Chris. I don’t think he has the steals record yet, he’s third and I’m second? He won’t take that, I’m not giving it to him. No, I’m kidding. He can hold all the records. I’m happy for him. I’m very happy for him and I’m happy to still be here to see him break records. Not mine thoughAntetokounmpo continued, joking with great love.

“It’s awesome to see since the first day I started training fighting for a few minutes with Larry Drew. Him in his second season and me in my first, I’m like Andre Jackson J. and he like Marjon. We have to keep improving, stay humble and do what is right for the team and the young players. To be the right example, the right model for themGiannis added, taking a little flashback as the Bucks continue their quest for the best record in the East.

12,012 points and counting.
