I don’t think we will ever see a player like Giannis again in our lifetime. He may be 1 of 1 and he a good human being. Really solid dude and a monster.

All time great performance from Giannis. Chris Paul and Devin Booker missed big shots down the stretch. Middleton didn’t. #NBAFinals

With teams like Brooklyn, Philadelphia, and Miami in the East, the Bucks were underdogs all seasons long.
But behind the powers of Giannis Antetokounmpo, who scored 50 in Game 6 and has cemented his place in basketball history, Milwaukee was able to pull off the impossible.
Conversations will no doubt ensure over the next few days and week, including the difficulty of this playoff run, Giannis’ place among the All-Time greats, and whether or not the Bucks can repeat next year.
It remains to be seen what the future holds in store for Giannis and his team but, for now, they will enjoy the moment and appreciate the journey.
Congratulations to the Bucks for taking home the title and reaching the pinnacle of basketball success.
