The Greek Freak pointed out that according to the regulations, the Raptors’ forward should have been penalized with a technical penalty for defiant behavior, but added that he likes to see the younger players in the league … attacking him.
“It was a technical penalty“, emphasized the 30-year-old superstar and added: “I’ve seen older and younger players, now more younger players, come up to me and challenge me and it’s something I love because I did it when I was younger. When I faced established or legendary players, I went all out on them. So when they do it to me now, I take it as the biggest sign of respect for what I’ve accomplished in 13 years in the NBA. However, I am not interested in personal duels, but in winning. I try to win and today we won. And now I’m thinking about the game against the Cavaliers. When I was younger I was thinking about the dunks, I was like, ‘Oh, I’m dribbling Durant, LeBron, Paul George, Butler, DeRozan, Carmelo.’ All of them. And I wanted to mess with them so they could learn me in the league and make a name for myself. Now that I’m older, I understand that the only thing that counts is winning».
