Colin Cowherd: āIf the Bucks get extinguished quickly by Boston ā and they donāt match up with Boston, theyāre not close to Boston, theyāre just not athletic enough to stop Boston on the wing ā or if they got eliminated by a Miami... Giannis is turning 30 soon, itās his 11th season, and he relies heavily on athleticism, and he will age fast. He is the opposite of Dirk Nowitzki, who could still score at 38, 39, and 40. Thatās not Giannis. Heās the only big now that doesnāt shoot threeās. Heās not a shooter so heās not going to age [well]. Itās like Westbrook, when youāre hyper-athletic you age quickly. Steph -- less athletic, great shooter ā ages gracefully. Giannis knows this.
The Dame acquisition wasĀ a little bit of a hail Mary, they did not want to get rid of Jrue Holiday. Giannis has said āIām a winner first, a Buck second, I will take a better opportunity.ā This Bucks roster is the oldest in the league, and the good players are really old. Brook Lopez, Middleton, Dame... Giannis is having this insane season, he knows that heās hyper-athletic, getting injured more, and I believe if they get extinguished and are not really competitive against Boston ā and I think they could get swept by Boston or lose in five, I donāt think they match up at all with the Celtics. Celtics are way too athletic, and younger. I think Giannis is going to ask to leave. I think heās going to want to go to California, play with a LeBron, play with a Steph... Heās a smart kid, he knows āmy game is athleticism, Iām getting banged up more, the good players around me are old, we donāt match up with Bostonā...
People donāt think these playoffs are that compelling but I think a team who could get eliminated quickly is the most fascinating story. Keep your eyes on Giannis, who is having a remarkable year but he turns 30 very quickly, and increasingly is getting dinged up.āĀ
Watch Colin Cowherd of FS1ās The Herd explain why he believes this could be the final season for Giannis Antetokounmpo in Milwaukee if the Bucks fail to reach the NBA Finals.Ā
Check out the segment above as Colin details why he thinks the 30-year-old Giannis will quickly realize after this impending postseason failure that the Bucks are a hopeless and depreciating franchise, and will look to make a quick pivot to team up with another title-hunting star like LeBron James or Steph Curry for the final few years of his physical prime.
