    I have no doubt he'll a good player in the league. But I don't see anything special about him.

    Every player that goes in the top 3 is always overhyped. We just went thru it with Zion last year and will probably go thru it again this year.

    At the end of the day, the kid has played one preseason game, lol.

      As for Giannis, I’m glad and also not surprised that he decided to stay and took the full 5 year max as well. Shuts up any potential “Well, he could still leave in a year or two if he wants” noise up for good.

        And this is a time when a players words were not weak in a small market.

        Those same fans are now backing off and saying they didn't want him anyway. lol.

        Those same team fans said no superstar wants to stay in Milwaukee and Wisconsin. Yelich, Rodgers and Giannis (all MVP's) have stayed and signed.

        Throughout his tenure with the Bucks, Giannis has said how much he likes Milwaukee. Giannis proved and backed those statements up with his signature. Based on past history, as you stated above, players words are weak as GM's.

          I'm surprised, maybe not that surprising. But no take about Anthony Edwards.

          Anyway, How do people feel about him? Only 2 games lol

            One would assume that 7 and 11 is their uniform numbers but that simply isn't the case here.

            You see, the number of celestial bodies visible to the naked eye is 7. They include the Sun, the Moon and the five planets, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. Earth is a celestial body but since we are on it, for us, it is invisible in the sky!

            And the number 11 reads the same on a calculator whether it is upside down or reflected in a mirror or both. This makes 11 a strobogrammatic prime and a dihedral prime.

            The Nets potential with Kyrie and KD is sky high and they're both in their prime.... so 7 mf'n 11, baby!

                I don’t think it’s personal man.

                Fans are fans. We want everyone. And please don’t think fans/media won’t start back up again if the Bucks are an early out in the playoffs again.

                  I don't think it's personal, either.

                  It just feels good to be a Bucks fan today because of all the years of suckage prior to the last few years. (except for the 80's, part of the 90's and 71 of course lol) Also, from a Bucks fan(s) view, it's also all the media narratives(looking at you Miami Heat and ESPN media) and fans being fans.

                  And don't be surprised if that happens Bud will be on his way out. He needs to adapt more and plays his studs more than 30 min per playoff game.

                  I go back to this tweet from Giannis 7/17:

                  I got loyalty inside my DNA Deer

                          I really like Philly’s top 7/8 guys and the starting line up should work. They are going to need to improve the bench somehow during the year.
