The only MVP of the 3 playing in that game to have a triple double

Giannis about to become a dad, his girlfriend Maria announced today:

https://eu.jsonline.com/story/sports...er/3945591002/

I wonder if his little bro Alex will be still playing when his son gets drafted in the NBA... :clap: :suds: (Maria's tweet suggests it is a boy cause she included a "giannis-kid no34" jersey on her tweet)

Congrats Giannis!

Girls don't play basketball? I guess they should close down the WNBA...

With a convincing 3ple double performance out of WORLD's BEST PLAYER, the Bucks start the season by beating the Rockets in Houston.

Considering that the Rockets are among the contenders for the WCF, it only proves how weak the WC really is...

...among the 8-10 playoff contenders. They are as flawed as ever and won't make the finals.

Disney to release a movie on Giannis:

Disney+ Developing Film About Milwaukee Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo – Deadline

It's not the first time that a celebrity gets his life on film, but this coming that early in Giannis career, it has a lot of consequences for Giannis, the Bucks, but the entire league too, because Disney will want to create a series of films for as long as Giannis career lasts.

1. It means that Giannis may end up beating M.Jordan for being the basketball player with the most financial wealth made out of his career.

2. It means that the Giannis will be a Buck for his entire career.

3. It means that it's to highest interest of Disney for Giannis to win as many championships as he can for as long as his career lasts.

4. It means that the Bucks become the most attractive destination for players that can help Giannis win championships, because there will be a huge endorsement income guaranteed coming out of Disney, in order to be able and get the rights for the players that surround Giannis and form an accurate script.

Did he kill a lion when he was 6 years old?
Otherwise, not interested....

While this is cool, you do realize that this is for origingal content for Disney +, a soon to be launched streaming service. It is not a theater release. It is not going to compete financially with Space Jam and is not a huge investment for Disney. It is not even clear how many people will see it since the service is not lauched yet and most people who will subscribe will be there for Disney/Pixar/Marvel/Star Wars.

I'm certain Brogdon would have went back to the Bucks for less money had he known this was coming....

1. The name is Buckalis...

2. What's the purpose of posting and say nothing? Why you do this?

What is the point of you posting here at all?

You say stupid shit nonstop, then you ignore anybody who calls you on it.

Jalen Rose made an interesting point re: Giannis and his extension. I guess when asked about it, Giannis didn't want to talk about it.]

Jalen said that when a team wants to give a player $250 million the team wants their franchise player to commit to the team, talk about how much he loves the team, the city, the coach, etc. but Giannis didn't do any of that.

Says it's a bad sign for the Bucks.

Might be.

But in reality, there is no reason for anyone to even talk about Giannis free agency until this summer.

If Giannis declines to extend, then we can talk about it. Nothing he can say or do now really hints at what his ultimate plans might be. If the Bucks succeed this year, good chance he signs. If they fail while Brogdon plays like an all start in Indy, good chance he bolts.

Agree, but we know they're going to talk about it anyway and it's only going to get worse

Every winning streak..."Giannis is staying".

Lose 2 or 3 in a row..."Giannis is gone".

After only having played his 512th game in the Bucks victory against the Sixers, Giannis Antetokounmpo has advanced his per game scoring to 19.9pts being already the 65th per game scorer in the the league's history and still the more rapidly rising one.

Giannis, who started the season by having 18.9pts per game as been his career average, is now only a breath away for having another historical career achievement by joining the elite club of players in the NBA's history who average 20 or more points per game in their career and is expected to reach the 20pts mark in only the following few games other than been the favorite to repeat winning the MVP title again this season after having won it during the previous season too.
