After the intense finale of the Pacers -Bucks match and the warm episode with his father Tayris Haliberton, Yiannis Antetokounbos spoke openly and honestly, explaining what annoyed him.
“I am humble in victories. I don’t like it when some, once they win, think they have the right to speak disrespect. I disagree with it. I’ve got a championship -I’m not saying it to reduce anyone, but it’s the truth. And I never brought like that“The Greek superstar said meaningfully.
John also referred to the role of his family, sending a message of dignity: “My mother has not lost a race since he came to Milwaukee in 2014. When we got the championship, he was afraid to get into the parquet to hug me. Always with respect. You don’t see my family creating scenes”
On the incident with his father Chaliberton, he revealed: “I thought he was just a fan. He showed me a towel with his son’s face and found me. This was absolute disrespect. My father, the man with the most respect I have met, would never do that. He was always calm, he was sitting away. So he grew up with me”
And concluded: ‘I am happy for Halberton’s dad. Everyone is expressed as they feel. But finding me? This is unacceptable”
