Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo reacts to let-down vs. Knicks

The Milwaukee Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo shared his disappointment on his team’s performance vs New York Knicks, pointing out that they’re not playing their brand of basketball. Bucks were expected to pounce on the Knicks on Sunday, however, in a strange turn of events, coupled with the Milwaukee's poor defense, it was the Tom Thibodeau-coached team who came out on top. Antetokounmpo was not impressed at his team’s effort in their 110-130 loss to the Knicks. So much so that he didn’t see his team’s real identity. “At the end of the day we have to play hard. This is not us, this is not us. We have to play hard, we played well in the previous game but we have to keep getting better.”

Giannis on how the Bucks can get out of their early season struggles on defense: "At the end of the day we have to play hard. This is not us, this is not us. We have to play hard, we played well in the previous game but we have to keep getting better."
