“Bucks are better off without Giannis Antetokounmpo on the floor”: Skip Bayless can’t stop making absurd takes ahead of Game 1 vs Phoenix Suns

Skip Bayless makes a downright idiotic claim about Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks ahead of the start of the NBA Finals 

Before his injury, Giannis Antetokounmpo was having his best ever post-season for the Milwaukee Bucks. While he was not perfect, the player was dominant during almost every game, and a serious force to be reckoned with on the inside.

When the Greek Freak went down in game-4 of the Conference Finals, many feared the worst. Those fears only got more real as experts believed there could be damage to his ACL, given how awkwardly his knee bent. Fortunately, the injury wasn’t even close to that bad, but will still likely keep Giannis out of game one of the NBA Finals.

When the NBA community heard the Bucks star’s injury update, many assumed that the team would be off-power for the series opener. But Skip Bayless?

Well, let’s just say his hunger for attention knows no bounds.

Skip Bayless believes that the Milwaukee Bucks are better off without Giannis Antetokounmpo

 At this point, we can’t tell if Skip Bayless is either the stupidest person on this planet or the smartest con-man in the universe.

If you’re an NBA fan, you know that this man speaks logically on extremely rare and special occasions. So, why do people still watch his show? Because he is a master in attracting attention to himself. And recently, he demonstrated his genius yet again on Twitter.

I suspect the Bucks have a little better chance in Game 1 without their 2-time MVP.

At this point, are we as the NBA fans the fools that keep falling for his ploy? Because there is no way he believes a single word he typed in that tweet.

Jokes aside though, there are signs of hope for the Bucks. According to reports, Giannis Antetokounmpo does seem to be making good progress at the moment. And if he can continue on his road to being healthy at this speed, chances are he’s back out on the floor for the franchise very soon.
