They are still capable of everything. Milwaukee Bucks is a stagnant sports project that doesn't inspire excitement or expectations, but continues to aim for everything as long as Giannis Antetokounmpo remains with them. After conquering the play-in, the feeling is that they don't have what it takes to win the ring and that the Greek is preparing his exit ramp, but he does so with the pride of a champion.

Lillard's indefinite absence due to injury seemed to definitively condemn Milwaukee Bucks' aspirations, but a player of the caliber of Giannis Antetokounmpo is not willing to give up without offering his best version. Proof of this is how he is instilling courage in his entire team, forming new alliances like the one signed by Kevin Porter Jr. in the victory against the Heat, and eagerly seeking a fifth place that would help them avoid the Knicks in the first round and the Celtics in a possible second.

In the Wisconsin franchise, they have accepted that this summer Giannis Antetokounmpo will seek a trade, but they are pleased to see his maximum effort until the end. They can do little more, considering that they mortgaged their future to surround the Greek with a competitive environment of a high level, without a single first-round Draft pick until 2031. The better Antetokounmpo performs, the more chances there will be for an epic surprise in the playoffs, but they will also get more positive things from his most likely trade this summer.
