Chicago Bulls vs. Milwaukee Bucks: 3 Takeaways from Thursday’s Loss
2. Jabari Parker and Giannis Antetokounmpo are just getting started
Holy crap, Giannis Antetokounmpo is good.
Really good. Scary good.
The Greek Freak had 30 points, 14 rebounds, three assists and three steals against the Bulls on Thursday night and looked like the best player on the floor from the opening tip.
Jabari Parker played fantastic against his hometown team, scoring 28 points, grabbing five rebounds and putting Robin Lopez on a poster in transition.
Both players torched the Bulls all night long. Their 58 combined points was no fluke. They were the two best players on the floor. The Bucks have one of the brightest futures out of all 30 teams in the league, and if these two are playing like this, look the hell out.
(Oh, and this showing came without perennial All-Underrated Team member Khris Middleton, too.)
