Bucks star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo shared a mysterious tweet on social media Tuesday, seemingly offering his thoughts on the criticism that his team has received after the No. 8-seed Heat eliminated Milwaukee in five games in the first round of the playoffs.
Milwaukee entered this year’s postseason as the top seed in the Eastern Conference after concluding the regular season with a league-best 58–24 record. Despite the Bucks’ regular-season success, Milwaukee became the sixth No. 1 seed in NBA history to lose to an eighth seed.
A week after the Bucks’ postseason departure, Milwaukee fired coach Mike Budenholzer. As Milwaukee starts a new chapter, the two-time MVP appears determined to silence the critics.
