Giannis Antetokounmpo is highly motivated to win the NBA MVP this season after falling short in the last two years.<\/p>\n
\u201cLook, I will never try to create a narrative about the work I put in and maybe that might hurt me because I believe the last five years I\u2019ve been the MVP,\u201d he said in an interview with Bleacher Report.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am extremely competitive. I try to make my team successful. That\u2019s what I get paid for. That\u2019s what I\u2019m here for. I\u2019m never going to be one who discredits anybody else\u2019s work. That\u2019s not who I am as a person. And I will never beg for an MVP award that I believe I deserve,\u201d he added presenting his case for a third MVP award, \u201cI\u2019m very proud that I\u2019m able to play at an MVP level because that means I\u2019m making my team very successful. That\u2019s the goal.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Greek Freak was one of the favorites to win the most desired individual prize in NBA in both the 2020-21 and 2021-22 seasons, but fellow European star Nikola Jokic ended up with the trophy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
