Is not winning it all a “failure”?

We’re in the glow of back to back titles, but I wanted to post this answer from Giannis when he was asked that question last night:



To me, this answer is outstanding and really well thought out. Sometimes in sports (or, hey, at your job too!), it just isn’t your day. Doesn’t mean you failed.

Some of my favorite UGA football seasons (1997, 2003, 2007, 2013 up until the Knee-Land game was over) didn’t win titles. 2017 is a year that was by no means a failure. Same with 2018 (until New Year’s Day, anyway).

Anyway, some time in the next 10-15 years, we won’t win it all. I don’t think we can do more than a 12 peat. But not winning it all ≠ “failure.”
