Golden State has been poaching fans ever since Steve Kerr took over in 2014. Kerr has built the Warriors into arguably the best NBA dynasty of all time. His team has appeared in 4 consecutive Finals and won three championships. The sustained success has led people from all over the country to become emotionally invested in the Warriors.  

But times are changing. The Bucks are showing signs of being the next big thing in sports – all thanks to Antetokounmpo. Last night they showed the world they are no longer just a good team, but a great team capable of shaking things up in the postseason.

Behind impressive guard play, the Bucks defeated the Warriors on national television 134-111. Bledsoe was in his bag. He looked confident when isolating on Curry, or anyone for that matter. It was a confidence we haven’t seen since his arrival in the Cream City. After his 26 minutes on the floor, Bledsoe finished with 6 assists and 26 points while shooting 10-12. Giannis was also limited to 26 minutes but scored 24 points along with 9 boards. He also blessed us with some freakishly athletic plays.

This game is just another reason it’s a great time to be a Bucks fan. The team is running on all cylinders, both offensively and defensively, and it’s exciting to watch. If the Bucks can sustain this quality of play, look for the team to have a full bandwagon come playoffs. 


Here are the full highlights if you want to relive all of the glory. 



Bucks in Six. Always.
