One thing that they have pitched him on is having the ball in his hands a lot more next season.<\/a> He played with a guy like Damian\u2014brother, he ain\u2019t going nowhere. He\u2019s a dog. Anytime I see him playing basketball, everybody\u2019s smiling. He\u2019s good vibes. I don\u2019t think there\u2019s going to be any surprise if Thanasis might be on this team again. But they\u2019re telling Giannis: we\u2019ll give you more control, more touches, more creation responsibility. They believe they can compete in the Eastern Conference. Whether that\u2019s true or not, that\u2019s what they\u2019re selling him. You essentially take somewhat of a gap year, retool this team, and push again next year. From my understanding, Jon Horst and Doc Rivers genuinely believe this team can make a run, especially if Giannis fully buys in. Whether that\u2019s enough to satisfy him\u2014we\u2019ll see. But that\u2019s the Bucks\u2019 pitch. Recommit anOd lead this team for one more run while the front office works around the edges.\u201d<br \/>Source:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=FNKS1GsT0jE\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cWhat makes Giannis comfortable here?
