Giannis can’t stand his teammates being so timid. vox888

vox888 Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo was disappointed after his team lost 94-116 to the New York Knicks on Friday, calling on his teammates to play with intensity and not the same level of sluggishness that has seen them drop to 2-7. vox888

The Bucks have lost seven of their last eight, with the Knicks trailing them by as much as 30 points.  ( vox888 )

Milwaukee’s scoring power is limited, with Giannis’ 24 points and 12 rebounds and Damian Lillard’s 19 points unlikely to be close to anyone else. 

“Coming to New York and just playing what we show, there’s no problem in winning,” Antetokounmpo said. 

“Our opponents are not afraid of us at all, so we have to compete with a fighting attitude in every possession and seize possession.” 

“We have to do better than before to resist. If we can only do this much, we can’t compete with anyone. 

“Sometimes, even though we almost win, at least we still have a chance to celebrate.” 

We’ll have to keep an eye on Milwaukee’s performance from now on to see if they can improve in their visit to the Boston Celtics (November 10 ) .
