Giannis Antetokounmpo is wiping the floor with the rest of the NBA these days, and after the Milwaukee Bucks’ Thursday night win over the Memphis Grizzlies, which featured the most random dustup of all time between Matt Barnes and John Henson, the Greak Freak decided he wanted the world to know it:
Giannis currently yelling GET BUCKETS while walking around the locker room. So that's something.

At the risk of being overly presumptive, I think I speak for everyone when I say, we approve.
Antetokounmpo finished the night with 15 points, six rebounds, 11 assists, one steal and three blocks, flirting with yet another triple-double. Over the last 10 games, in fact, he’s averaging 20.8 points, 8.9 rebounds, nine assists, two steals and two blocks.
So yes, Milwaukee’s monstrously sized point guard is getting buckets. But he’s also getting and doing a ton of other things. If there’s anything to nitpick, it’s that his “Get Buckets” mantra doesn’t come close to encapsulating his recent run of dominance.
Then again, shouting “I GET BUCKETS AND REBOUNDS AND ASSISTS AND STEALS AND BLOCKS AND THEN MORE BUCKETS BECAUSE I’M A SEVEN-FOOT POINT GUARD FROM OUTER SPACE WHO DOES WHATEVER THE HELL HE WANTS” at the top of his lungs doesn’t have the same ring to it.
