THE John Antetokounmpo confirmed that intentionally missed on the Bucks’ final drive against the Wizards to grab the rebound himself and make it fourth triple-double this year.
“I initially thought about scoring, but in situations like this (ie when the game is decided) it’s better to just keep the ball. I tried to play the game smart and probably stole a triple-double“, the Greek Freak said after the match, winking at the reporters.
As for his team’s reaction after yesterday’s loss to the Sixers, he said: “We are here to do our job. We came here at 2 in the morning, we were tired from the tough match against the Sixers, but we played hard and won. We did our job and so we must continue. Strong and united».
Finally, he did not hide his satisfaction at his acquisition Goran Dragic. “It’s a fantastic move. Goran has been in the NBA for 15 years, always on winning teams. He is a tough player, knows how to create phases for himself and his teammates. I’m excited to play together. He’s a nice guy, I’ve known him for quite some time, I’ve faced him many times and I’m glad he’ll be my teammate and not a rival».
