There is no failure in sports… that’s what Giannis Antetokounmpo said after losing in the playoffs in 2023… a 1st round series against the Heat in which he only played 3 of the 5 games… and in fact Giannis has missed 8 of the Bucks last 11 playoff games, after missing their entire first round series against the Pacers in 2024 as well… and it is becoming clear that Giannis is frustrated… while Giannis might not view these seasons as failures… they certainly have not met his expectations… and the little secret of Giannis’ career is that he WILL let the organization know about it. The constant fear of him leaving over the years has forced the hand of the Bucks to keep adding, keep pushing for titles… and it is very possible that that has FINALLY caught up to them. A few playoff disappointments, a few injuries at terrible times, and the Bucks are quickly becoming the forgotten team of the eastern conference…
