The Bucks stuck aggressively at the finale of the showdown with the Warriors and fatal were defeated. After the end of the match, the Giannis Antetokounbos He stood in what his team and himself should improve. Characteristically he said that it should become more aggressive and enjoy basketball again.
“We have to play liberated, have more joy in the game and stop thinking about negative things. Talking about me, I have to be aggressive, I must c … all that everyone is talking about everyone talks about. I have to be myself and enjoy the game again“, He stressed, among other things.
Antetokounbos’ statements:
For the Bucks’ attack on the finale: “We have to be clearer about what we are trying to achieve. I feel that sometimes only me and Lillard try to be aggressive and everyone is playing through it. I think in the last games in the fourth period we are so “altruistic”, instead of rushing and trying to achieve something. That’s what we do. And if I and he are not aggressive in the finale … In addition, we are not doing well. They push us and so we get bad shots as we did in the last 2’30 ””
For the game with the Lakers coming: “We played well in the third period, we released the ball, we got into the racket, we put a shot, we defended it properly. Of course Luke made a great match, but I don’t remember if someone else had a good game. We have to go with the mentality that “we need it”, like any game by the end of the season, which is like playoffs game for us. We try, but we don’t play good basketball. I hope to go to Los Angeles, concentrate and do our job”
About what it means to be aggressive: “To play freely, to be competitive, to make the right decisions, to play with my strengths and to take whatever the opportunity is in front of you. For example, when two players mark you, you have to do the right pass. That means being aggressive. Take advantage of the opportunity presented to you, not think more than you should, play with appetite, be yourself.
It was never the mentality “Give the ball to John to make ten shots per season”. I have never done it in my career, so I think I’m effective, I don’t get a shot just because I’m John. I could definitely take 35 shots the game, but I don’t play like that. I try to play in the right way and the match will sometimes suit me and some not, but I always have to have the mentality to create phases either for me or for my teammates”
