3 things for the Milwaukee Bucks to be thankful for on Thanksgiving 2021
The Milwaukee Bucks should be thankful for their star-studded trio
Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, and Jrue Holiday are the trio that got the Bucks over the hump.
It obviously started with Antetokounmpo and Middleton for the first seven seasons, and then the addition of Holiday before last season is what pushed the Bucks over the edge. The playoff run they had together was phenomenal… Antetokounmpo’s playoff run and Finals performance were all-time great. Middleton had five 30-point games in the playoffs and a 40-point game in the NBA Finals. Holiday’s defense was incredible and he had the steal and alley-oop that changed the Finals. All of them together helped bring the Bucks their first championship in 50 years.
On top of what they have already done, all three players are committed to the Bucks for years to come. Giannis obviously signed the supermax extension to keep him in Milwaukee through 2025, Middleton signed a $178 million deal in the 2019 offseason that keeps him with the Bucks until 2024, and Holiday last season signed a $135 million deal to be with the team until 2025. These are three of the most humble, loyal, dedicated superstars any team could ask for, and Bucks fans should be extremely thankful to have the big three that they have. No drama, no egos, not too flashy… just hard work and commitment. A perfect representation of the city that they play in.
The trio has already been a success no matter what they do in the future, but the possibility for a dynasty is there. If they continue to have the right pieces around them, they can help bring the Milwaukee Bucks even more championships in the years to come.
