With the start of the playoffs fast approaching, the Bucks are in a good position to validate their ticket. But in the meantime, Giannis Antetoukoumpo continues to prepare and the latest images that have been relayed are enough to worry competing franchises.
Highly expected to be among the favorites for the title before the start of the season, the Bucks have been able to justify this status which has been attributed to them until now.
Despite their heavy defeat suffered this Wednesday against the Warriors (90-125), Doc Rivers’ men maintain their place as runner-up in the East with a record of 41 successes and 22 failures.
Logically, a playoff spot should be obtained by the franchise shortly.
Unless there is a major turnaround in the situation, the latter will surely inherit a comfortable position. However, last year’s first-round disappointment against the Heat taught them that no opponent should be taken lightly.
Determined to obtain his second championship ring, Giannis Antetokounmpo has visibly chosen to erase one of his biggest flaws before the post-season.

Giannis didn’t miss a three-pointer during a shooting session…
If his wrist whip was impeccable in the warm-up, Giannis was not as effective during the match against the Warriors. Finishing with 23 points at 53.3% shooting by scoring a three-point basket on 3 attempts, the Greek Freak was not able to keep the Bucks in the game. But the fact remains that the web is still speechless after witnessing this video.
The league is shaking

The league will shake.
I fear for other teams
Giannis is about to unleash 3pt— Philip Lamela (@PhilipLamela1) March 6, 2024
I’m afraid for the other teams. Giannis is about to make the three points.
Giannis Antetokounmpo is undoubtedly one of the most versatile players in the league. His biggest weakness, however, is his long-range marksmanship, although the latest images may suggest that he is improving in this area. It now remains to show it in a match.
