Giannis Antetokounmpo vs. Drake is the NBA’s best rivalry right now

It was nearly a year ago that Toronto Raptors superfan/team ambassador Drake tried to get into the head of Giannis Antetokounmpo, and although the Milwaukee Bucks superstar seemed to ignore it, the Raps ended up winning the Eastern Conference Finals and, eventually, a ring.

Round 1 went to Drake.

And it seemed like the rapper wanted to try to get into the Greek Freak’s head yet again on Tuesday when he came to Scotiabank Arena with a pair of WWE championship belts, clearly a shot at Giannis and the Bucks, who love to do WWE pregame “fights.”

As you know now, Antetokounmpo won Round 2 thanks to a win over the Raps, and the defending MVP brushed aside any trash talk:

After the game, he had this to say:

“He cares about me, I really don’t.” BOOM. Got him.

Please, let there be a Bucks-Raptors rematch in the postseason. We need more of this.
