Biggest storyline of the season
I wish I had something cuter to say here other than “can the Bucks repeat??” but I find this Milwaukee team to be very boring. Like, where are the anti-vaxxers? Where’s the story about Khris Middleton missing practice because he was out too late with the hoes? Yawn.
Key Players
Giannis Antetokounmpo: As much as I’m excited for this new version of care-free Giannis that appears to have added casually dribble pull-up midrange jumpers into his arsenal, I can’t not point out that he was playing on one leg in the Finals and has admitted to still being injured so there could be a devasting Woj bomb involving a knee that could shut this whole shit down.
Brook Lopez: Due to the global pandemic, Marvel movies were halted for the last 2 seasons but now we’ve got The Eternals in theatres now and Spider-Man coming out, we might not see Brook Lopez scrolling through Reddit MCU theories instead of working on his game.
Grayson Allen: They brought in the Trae Young stopper.

Khris Middleton: Shooting 41% from 3 the last two seasons is a pretty good way to partner with the greatest athlete in NBA history who dents the rim every time he shoots a jumper from outside of 7-feet.
Bobby Portis: No jokes here, sir. Sorry to bother you, Mr. Portis. Don’t hurt me.
Jrue Holiday: If the Bucks lost the Finals, all eyes would’ve been on Holiday who shot 36% from the field. Buuuut, Milwaukee won so we’ll just praise his defense and ignore that he has no idea where the ball is going when it leaves his hands.
Donte DiVincenzo: Something tells me that he is responsible for the team radio and he has Pop Smoke on repeat in that locker room.
How the Bucks can win the title
Oh, it’s very easy. Everyone in the Bucks organization needs to get very online. First, you start sending Kyrie some Alex Jones and Jordan Peterson clips. Feed him terrible conspiracies and turn him full incel loser. Make sure he never plays for the Nets again.
Next, stay online. You’re not done yet. Start tweeting crazy shit about Durant. Don’t worry about even tagging him in the posts. He’ll find them. Make him say something wild back at you. The hope here isn’t to distract him with Twitter nonsense. He’s evolved past that. The hope is to get him to say something so out of pocket that ESPN spends 48 straight hours talking about it. Get him in trouble like Michael Rappaport’s bitch ass did.
