Fr, LeBron would cuss bro out and get angry 💀

I think his accent just made it sound less hostile 😂

​@@xoolyizhim somehow you involve him in it that's crazy man😂😂😂

Right and he was annoyed at the same time.

@@Larrydavid420 with his finals MVP for carrying 👏 yes very well said

you're a failure if you have all this money and fame but throw it down the drain cause you want to steal sunglasses

​@@FernandoHernandez-nj1kvwth does that have to do with Giannis.

And you didnt got what Gianis say...

The opposite actually. He gave him examples from his own logic to let him know how stupid it is that is not failure

​@Deathtobiden Anddemocraticadm He did answer the question and made an analogy for him to understand how stupid of a question that is. To not only ask this year but the year before. Michael Jordan played 15 years and won 6 Championships the other 9 years weren't failures.

The team that had the best record in the nba and were the favorites to win it all only winning 1 game against a team that nearly got bounced in the play In DEFINITELY shouldn’t be held accountable….. Two fourth quarter collapses in a row but god forbid the reporter doesn’t coddle his balls and tell him A for effort!

@@Larrydavid420 bro hurt his back game one; that effects every micro movement you make & on Giannis’s level hinders him significantly; he went out there & gave his best at less than 100%…

he should be the one accountable supposed to be the number one player

@@GOODvibezisaacSo was “Injuries” the reason they blew double digit leads in game 4 & 5?

Hahahaha Jimmy Butler also hurt his back look what he did no excuses excuses

@@Alex-sf9bo nah

Facts. His response was spot on

Reporters stop asking stupid questions? LOL, that'll be the day.

The question is not stupid , he didn’t tell him that he failed in life or anything…the question is made from the expectations they had for themselves, as a team they wanted to win it all and they FAILED !

His accent disguised his anger lol

Wooooow this comment just discredited all what he's say 😂😂😂😂😂

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

This is an "Excellent" comment.

Right on!!!😂😂😂

That’ll last until next season or maybe a few more seasons sports fans be flip floppy asl 💯

Break not brake

If literally anybody else responded like this you would call them soft lol

Remember that the Lord Jesus Christ died on a cross for you because He loves you so much. He then rose up from the dead three days later The Ten Commandments are called the moral law, (most of us are lying thieving blasphemous adulterer at heart and deserve hell) you and I broke the law, Jesus paid the fine. That’s what happened on that cross. By believing that Jesus died on the cross and rose up from the dead 3 days later and not just confessing your sin, but also repenting of all sin you have done and putting all your trust in Him in prayer, He will grant you everlasting life as a free Gift.

@@dove3853 enh prove it

Well I’m sure they see the reporters all the time

reporters say their names and employers at the beginning of their questions typically

Ikr mans was actually dissapointed of Eric lmao

the game was in MIL he sees that reporter at least 41 times a year plus he said the reporter asked him the same question last year so yeah he probably knows his name 🤔

He’s a beat reporter… he travels with the team

The beat reporter literally travels with the team. I don't understand how the most braindead youtube comments get the most likes

Haha. When he said Eric I was like, “He in trouble” 🤣

Eric gonna ask that same question next year, Eric is the police

For sure

Giannis is a genius, for answering it once and for all, Eric def won't ask it next year

I bet he will😂😂 they all ask the same dumb questionss

Never😂😂😂😂

Giannis got a 3 million dollar pay raise from last year, bet the reporter didnt but Beast from the east went out of the playoffs early again this year. What a failure but no reason to get worked up over it. The whole idea that it's not possible to fail in sports is fallible to say the least.

Yes sir. A master answer

@@hooptroopers That’s your perspective as a fan. Because you don’t get to share in his successes other than his on court accomplishments. Your narrow perspective and inability to understand what he is saying is your failure. I suggest reading the subtle art of not giving a F***. Great book.

@@hooptroopers exactly. The whole point he plays is for a chip…

Hahaha exactly

@@Alex-sf9bo uh wrong sport? But yes, I can’t disagree with you on that. They just need to keep everybody healthy to the best of their ability. Particularly that outstanding running back Breece Hall; would’ve won offensive rookie of the year if he was healthy

@@Alex-sf9bo Yet they still gonna lost to the dolphins 🤡

Best player in the league now? Don't think so, especially if ur free throws would cost u to be eliminated in first round in just 5 games 😢

Totally agree with you. Furthermore that reporter is lucky Giannis is not a confrontational guy. I’ve rarely seen Giannis this annoyed with a question. He made an effort not to get personal. I know I wouldn't have 😂

@@Outright_MikeGetting the First Seed, all that Just to lose in the first To a Play in Team that had no rest, Theres no excuses, they failed

Yes, Bucks and Giannis as their front man especially, FAILED. That's clearly why he's annoyed and then that reporter shows up asking the relevant question again but at least Giannis prepared an answer since last year: "There is no failure in sport" 🙆🏼‍♂️

@@ComicEdits313 he lost. Not failed. That simple. Giannis didn't pay terribly. If Giannis was putting up 10-15 points and 6-8 rebounds then maybe you have a point. Jimmy Butler just outplayed him. That's it

​@@ComicEdits313 your brain is 1% working. That's your failure.

It could be both a lesson as well as a loss just depends on how a person perception works but I respect your opinion

They failed this year, Giannis is wrong in that sense. You can’t tell me this year was a success when you’re the top seed favored by many to get to the finals and get knocked out by the 8th seed. Learn from failure and come back stronger

@LoneWolfMoves There is the caveat that Giannis missed 3 games (losing 2/3 without him). While they choked & came up short in the 2 games Giannis played, he still missed the MAJORITY of the series‼️

@@g.o.a.tjames8861 miami was missing players too. Milwaukee should’ve still won this series due to the depth of their team. Clearly it wasn’t enough, the Bucks failed to beat the Heat. Simple as that, don’t make excuses

@LoneWolfMoves It's just a fact that Giannis (a walking 30 & 15) missing half the series was a huge contributing factor in their lose... excuse or not, this is a fact 🤷‍♂️.

Facts. They had a failed season. It's ok. Try again next year

He should answer him as no its not.. He is not calling or saying "this season is a failure for you" instead asking do you viewing this season as a failure? He should be upset against Jimmy Bucket not the Reporter😂😂😂

As if Chelsea fans are gonna buy that

​@@rasheed5700I'll buy it

Idk about this one chief

There are failures in sports. There are winners and losers. There is success and then there is failure. Giannis should suck it up.

As a 30 year old 49ers fan, they have successfully failed to win a super bowl since 1994

It was dumb answer

Meh question wasn’t bad at all lmao

Question was warranted wtf u mean ? 😂

@@Jay-rg5mt I would argue the question was bad, or at least worded badly. Eric did in fact say “Did you see this *season* as a failure”, not “Did you see *the opening round of the playoffs* as a failure”. The Bucks did very well during the great majority of the season, but Miami just seemed to get the better of them during the playoffs.

​@@FloydWhoElseTV WHAT ABOUT LECHOKE , GEETTING SWEEP IN PLAYOFFS IS IT A FAILURE?

@@FloydWhoElseTV while he was injured? Pretty damn impressive if you ask me. I think the real blame falls on coach Bud. The Bucks were up in 2 of their games without Giannis and choked late. Bud makes questionable coaching decisions and doesn’t adjust very well

​@@datman3977 lol no cuz he got embarrassed and took it out on a reporter who was just doing his job 😂😂😂 KD WOULD NEVER.

So what is Jimmy Butler than? Because he averaged 37 without his guy Tyler herro and Victor

I'm glad u pointed out second language because it shows Giannis work ethic , and he talks better than the average black young man which is shameful...! Man speaks better ND clear English than these young hood guys

It's the reporter's job. Giannis could have just said "I don't see it that way and here is why..." The reporter is just giving the opportunity to say something like that. Giannis decides to make it about the reporter unnecessarily.

@@edwardmccauley1935that’s bullsh*t leave Black American men out of this, do you know the COMPLETELY different upbringing he had versus their upbringing.

He has maybe 4-5 years left at an elite level and he just got beat by an 8th seed. Definitely was a failure.

@@trendybistro definitely has more than 4-5 years left at this level and I’m not even a fan of the Bucks or much of him as a player.

Injuries have stopped many players early in their careers. It's unwise to plan with having lots of time when the truth is nobody knows and it'd be wiser to embrace failure than to get worked up over it.

@@trendybistro You might be right I think he can get at least one more chip but let’s be real he practically I was out three games

Well, Giannis had a 3 million dollar promotion this year, unlike the reporter so he should do better. For the 2x MVP on the 1st seed team from east to go out in first round against the 8th seed play-in Heat 1-4 is a failure FR. Most PPL were talking Beast from the east and Bucks in the finals against splash brother and Golden State. This is a failure for Giannis. Wonderful that the reporter is asking him the same question again this year xD

​@@hooptroopersthank you. You would think Jimmy Butler would be getting the love after the back to back performance he put on after Tyler herro and Victor went down, plus injured his tailbone as well.

Missed 13 and they lost by 2 lol. Math not mathing.

They had the best record in the nba and were favorites to win it all and only won 1 game in the playoffs. Two 4th quarter collapses in a row to lose crucial games, should the reporter pat him on the back and say good effort?

@@Larrydavid420 you we responded this in 4 comments g move on

​@@GOODvibezisaacso what. It's facts tho. Ya sound crazy in the comment section without all this bromance for the losing team and not giving Jimmy Butler the love for locking in after he hurt his tailbone, lost his second leading scorer and lost victor oladipo. Jimmy put the team on his back. He deserve the love because he left it all on the court.

Why? They lost

You talking about the dude that three peated after he won his first one? I don't think want to hear the excuses, they returned the same team that won the chip. To get beat in the first round and only win one game is a failure for the team with the best record in the nba

And better than yours, I see. It's "a non-American born", not "an non-American born, and you capitalize the E in English.

Who cares. These dudes are basketball players. You should only care about how they perform playing basketball
