Skip Bayless is getting ready for life after LeBron James, picking some players to criticize once the Los Angeles Lakers superstar retires from the game. Luka Doncic and Giannis Antetokounmpo appear to be his favorites right now, as the controversial analyst is always waiting for his opportunity to trash them.
As the Milwaukee Bucks were facing defeat against the New York Knicks on Friday night, Bayless took to Twitter to take a shot at the 2x NBA MVP, sarcastically asking if he’s really the best player in the league.
Milwaukee couldn’t get past Tom Thibodeau’s team at Fiserv Forum, losing the game 113-98. This meant their fifth loss of the season, which put them at 10th in the Eastern Conference standings. Skip was waiting for his opportunity and didn’t miss it, going off on Giannis.
Somebody on Undisputed keeps trying to tell me Giannis is The Best Player on the Planet and the MVP frontrunner. Uh, Giannis’ team is about to lose its FOURTH STRAIGHT home game. Best??? MVP???

Besides being the biggest hater of LeBron James, Bayless happens to be a big admirer and defender of Kevin Durant. He has backed the Brooklyn Nets as the best player in the league this season.
While others say Giannis is the best player in the association, Skip believes it’s KD. That’s why he also attacks the Greek Freak when he has a poor night or his team loses.
Still, a losing streak doesn’t mean the Bucks will stink during the entire season. They are ready to defend their 2021 NBA championship against a stacked Eastern Conference. Giannis has gotten better season after season, and this one won’t be the exception.
The Bucks won’t be bad forever and they will be back sooner than later, ready to prove Bayless and the rest of the haters wrong.
