Former NBA Player Criticizes Giannis Antetokounmpo, Ranks Him 'Fourth-Best Player' in East After Joel Embiid and Jayson Tatum
Antetokounmpo finished third in the voting that same season. Despite making the playoffs for seven consecutive seasons, Embiid has not advanced beyond the Eastern Conference semifinals. Although he has one MVP to his name, he remains one behind Antetokounmpo, who has finished in the top four of MVP voting every season since 2018-19, when he won his first MVP.
Antetokounmpo then went on to win his second MVP the following year. Tatum and Embiid rank among the best players in the NBA, particularly in the Eastern Conference. However, claiming they surpass Antetokounmpo or suggesting that the Bucks' star is the fourth-best player in the East is disrespectful, given everything he has accomplished.
Giannis is known for carrying a chip on his shoulder, and the 2024 offseason has given him even more motivation. Media, players, and former players are fueling his drive as he prepares for the 2024-25 campaign.
