Bucks are the NBA Cup Champions, defeating the Thunder 97-81
Channeling the Kobe Bryant mentality of finishing a game, Giannis Antetokounmpo went out there and sent a message to the league in a victory over the Thunder for the NBA Cup. The "Greek" Freek was just that. Nobody could stop him besides his free-throws, and he finished the game with a triple double, 26 points, 10 assists, and 19 rebounds.
The first half was pretty much entertaining as the Vets took on the young dogs. Everyone felt like the Thunder was going to run the Bucks off the court, but as mentioned above Giannis was like nope. The Green and White slowed down the tempo and got the shots that they wanted. They had a slight lead heading into the second half. The Buck's offense exploded in the second half as Dame Dolla decided to be invited to the cookout and boy, he was cooking. Dame was hitting three-point shots like it was nothing, leaving the Thunder looking helpless. He finished with 23 points
After it was all said and done, because the game was pretty much controlled by the Bucks late in the third and the white flag was surrendered in the fourth, the Bucks were crowned the King of Champions for the NBA Cup.
