Goran Dragic came into the defense of Giannis Antetokounmpo following the comments from Gilbert Arenas about him.
Gilbert Arenas recently made some vile comments about Giannis Antetokounmpo where he went on to say that he still isn’t a great player because the Milwaukee Bucks star player needs to develop a better understanding of the game.
These comments about Giannis Antetokounmpo from Gilbert Arenas brought a spark of criticism toward the former NBA player. Everyone knows that Giannis is arguably the best player in the world who has proved everything.
He has won every individual award that was there to be won, and also led his team to a championship a year ago. Following the comments from Arenas, Goran Dragic came into the defense of Giannis Antetokounmpo and fired shots at the former NBA player.
Dragic said, “Giannis is the MVP. Gilbert Arenas is not. Was he ever the MVP? I don’t think so. So he can’t talk about Giannis. Giannis won the championship, won the MVP award. He has been the defensive player of the year”.
He added, “Sometimes when they retire they just want to be relevant and sometimes you come out in the media. It is what it is. Gilbert Arenas was an unbelievable player and an unbelievable scorer, but in the end, I feel like this generation has a lot of good European players in the NBA who are MVPs, or win the championship”.
