Giannis Antetokounmpo's viral quote about ego, pride, and humility makes no sense

Giannis had a quote after the game... 'When you focus on the past, that's your ego. When you focus on your future, that's your pride. When you focus on the present, that's humility.'... Am I the only one? The quote makes no sense. I don't really understand how you can focus on the exact present all the time... I thought that the pride and ego thing should have been swapped.

The logic of the quote is a matter of philosophical interpretation.

Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, and Jrue Holiday are officially a 'Big Three'

The big three [of the Bucks] all stepped up. They are the big three. So it was Giannis, Middleton, and Holiday. They're the first team in the NBA Finals since 1985 to have three guys go for 25 points on 50% shooting in the same game.

The Bucks big three won the championship and are widely cited as a successful 'Big Three' model.

Chris Paul's foul on Giannis Antetokounmpo in Game 5 was one of the dirtiest plays possible

I'm officially out on Chris Paul. I'm team fuck Chris Paul for life now... because that foul on that alley-oop is like the dirtiest thing that you can possibly do. It's so quick... you can't like try to injure the team's best player. That dirty ass move. I'm out.

Whether a play is 'dirty' is subjective, but this play was widely criticized by media and fans at the time.

Every movie theater should be BYOB (Bring Your Own Beverage)

On a real note though, like that is maybe the coolest thing that LeBron James has done is be a BYOB guy. Yeah. Every WYO, whole tequila bar everywhere, or should be BYOB agreed.

The Kawhi Leonard era with the Clippers was an absolute failure

The Clippers Kawhi era is maybe the most unforgettable or or forgettable, I'm sorry, era of all time. Like they did nothing. Just an absolute tease.

This is a subjective evaluation of a player's tenure with a team.

France is playing the World Cup on 'easy mode' and looks unstoppable

France is just playing on easy mode. Like they're not even trying and they're just dummying people... France could have played with nine guys and they probably would've won that game.

This is a subjective observation of a team's dominance.

Cristiano Ronaldo is an absolute bum

But yeah, Ronaldo's, I mean, he's an absolute bum. I think we can all agree, right? Zach?

Subjective categorization of an all-time great player as a 'bum.'
