Finale
Is it possible to not be excited about Milwaukee Bucks playoff basketball? Even if the Bucks aren’t favored to make it to the second round, their series against the Toronto Raptors has been pegged by a lot of writers to be an exciting one to watch.
The reasoning for that is obvious. Giannis Antetokounmpo is a quickly-rising star, and he’s emerging as one of the best players in the world already. He’s also 22 years old.
Giannis has been in the playoffs before, but he wasn’t close to the caliber player he is now back in 2015. This is an opportunity for Antetokounmpo to prove to everybody he’s one of the best 10 or so players already in the NBA on the biggest stage–the NBA Playoffs.
