What a beautiful answer. Giannis grew up with no citizenship to any country and sold handbags on the streets in Greece when the country was in financial ruin. He has an amazing story and perspective on life. How could anyone not root for him?

I’ve sent this to my kids. This should be played to every kid on the planet and in fact adult / sporting fan etc. One of the most wonderful statements of all time around the psychology of sport (and life). This response in itself is a championship win!

[@s2Capacidade2s]

not only in sports, this can be shown in most companies too, lots of people are afraid of failing and they don't try or take risks... you need to calculate your risk, obviously, but you must be allowed to fail, everyone should be allowed to fail

I needed this today - my boyfriend just showed me the clip. Not only in sports but in everything ”Failure is just one step closer to the success” ❤

[@goombapizza6335]

Is it, though? Is it? If your goal is to win a championship in 2023, and you get eliminated from the 2023 championship contest, are you really closer to your goal of winning the championship in 2023? I guess the trick to life is this: set nebulous goals with no specific terms or deadlines, and then you can never fail.

[@satomorgana5283]

your boyfriend cheated you, but it's ok, he's not cheating you everyday. It's just a step to not cheating in future, so it's nevermind, he can't be faithful to you always. Just wait some more years, all is fine. Failure is just one step closer to the success ❤

Best interview ever

[@jenabrown8694]

And this is why although my team is Boston Celtics, I have ALWAYS admired this young man. My other favorite player I hope to see play live in the near future. Great response.

Loving the message. Sports is about trying, failing, trying again and failing again, always trying better every time.

[@towertito2149]

This is what a roll model looks like kids. This is why he will be remembered as one of the best to ever play when he retires. It's more then on the court. True greatness is in the mind 💯 as a 76ers fan. I commend the great freak for being so grounded and real in a strange world

[@oliverliggayu4499]

There is a similar message to this - "A SETBACK is just a SETUP for a COMEBACK".

[@AleksandraGincheva]

Kept it civil and still put him in his place! Well done! A lecture for success!

[@ericramirez9240]

I saved this speech in my phone if I need motivation/inspiration. He just gave you about a 75% answer on what is the meaning of life without being asked the question “What is the meaning of life” question. At least that’s how I interpret it and if that interpretation makes me better then I’ll keep believing. Much love.

[@Tommie22x]

you cant always win! thats a fact of life. our social media cultural encourages only success, and anything less is considered failure is frankly unhealthy. which is why so many people get so triggered when they lose. and try to cancel or fight anyone when they do lose. This fear of "losing face" is not something we should be teaching the next generation. Giannis thank you for spreading such a positive message about resilience and strength! English is not your first language but that was beautifully said!🎉
