Giannis Antetokounmpo


NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK

Q.  Have you already planned your summer?  Will you be playing on the national team?
GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO:  I'm not qualified to say.

Q.  Euro basketball?
GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO:  Yes.

Q.  How do you like the nickname, "the Greek Freak"?  And do you think it represents you well as a player?
GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO:  I like it.  It's the nickname that is going for me.  And it's really cool.  I'm Greek, and I'm a freak of nature, too.  So it's kind of cool.

Q.  Can you say the NBA life has been good to you so far?
GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO:  Yeah.  Yeah, I love the NBA life.  Summer League last year.  Tried to adjust.  It's great.  I think I was born to do this.

Q.  What was the most difficult thing to adjust to?
GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO:  The American culture.  Because I was young, I lived all my life in Greece.  The culture was the most difficult part.

Q.  Can you describe Jason Kidd as a coach.
GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO:  Great coach.  Really competitive.  He's got a great work ethic.  And he just wants to win.

Q.  Do you think it's possible to come up with new dance that we haven't seen before?
GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO:  I don't think you guys have seen everything.  I might try something new.
