Giannis on his injury: I wasn't even close to coming back, I'm running at 30-40% | NBA on ESPN 

Homies voice even sounds like he’s injured

Giannis my goat. Get well soon 🐐🐐🐐

He doesnt even have to explain himself to me. I know he was working hard to come back, and its not his fault. I am not going to make any excuses for us. Ima just say that I am confident that next year will be better. Now we can have a full offseason knowing who are coach is and all that. We didnt even get Dame until like a week before camp started. Now at least we can start camp with a plan in place and all of that. I love hearing Giannis say that after he rehabs hes going to Portland to spend time with Dame. I love hearing that. I still believe in Giannis and Dame as a duo. I seen glimpses of what they can be. I got the Bucks back and I cannot wait until the end of the summer already...GO BUCKS!!! I wish the Bucks would draft a player that we can use as well. Been awhile since the Bucks drafted a piece that they can plug in right away.

Glad Giannis did not play! Health is most important, I hope the Bucks load manages Giannis next season despite is willingness to push through pain. We need him in the playoffs!

Dude is likable

Time to trust the young guys to step up and give them more minutes for them to develop. Andre Jackson Jr, AJ Green, Marjon Beauchamp.

I’m a pacers fan and this bums me out. Wish he could’ve played

Giannis is statistically the greatest player in the NBA. His stats this year were top notch. Only didn't get the MVP because of the team issues. But clearly to achieve such great stats, he put a toll on his body and now he needs to rest. Next season he needs to consider balancing his time better. Even if it brings his stats down a bit.

Bucks said it wasn't a tear.... Still sounds like an Achilles tear. Wouldn't be surprised if he has surgery this summer. Get well soon Giannis.

Glad we didn’t rush you back, it’s all good take this time to build more team chemistry & focus on our weaknesses! Good season fellas

As messed up as it sounds, its best that the bucks ended their season the way did because if Giannis came back not fully healthy he would have risked getting hurt again. Bucks can chalk this season up, they would need make major roster changes, they have to get rid of brooks, beverley, middleton, connaughton, get some younger talent and wings to get back to contention

felt bad for the Greek freak but everything happens for a reason rest up train hard in the off season with dame and come back stronger 💪

Really wanted to see giannis play

Definitely needed him

I'm honestly happy that we're in Cancun and that we're having a break that we needed. So much has happened this season like Dame joining the team last minute, and Doc Rivers getting hired mid-season, which we're really good decisions from front office but we couldn't have a break. And as a matter of fact, 4 of our players are injured so I'm glad we ended our season early so that we could have time for our players to get healthy, and have some chemistry with their teammates. There's more to life than basketball and winning trophies cause at the end of the day, it's just a trophy. It's nice to win a championship, but not at the expense of our players' mental and physical health.

My guy giannas

Whoever approved Embiid to play needs to be investigated

He needs to chill down in regular season. There is nothing to gain after making the playoff

Minor setback for a major comeback 🔥

He’ll be back. These things happen. It’s a war of attrition the playoffs

GET BETTER MY DAWG 💯💯

Turns out his calf tear was actually a grade 2. Minimum 1 month. But on average you miss 1.5 months . So even if bucks advanced you probably not seeing giannis until maybe game 4 or 5 2nd round at best

I hope Gianni’s don’t leave the bucks

I would like to see the Bucks pickup Alex Caruso and Bruce Brown this Off Season.

My heart goes out to Giannis...historic record year, however, barely a whisper for MVP, and no whisper at all for face of the league---how can the greatest player in the league as well as a great young man of morals be so disrespected? I am appalled, and I pray for greater blessings for him and his beautiful family. God bless you, Giannis with health and discernment. REMEMBER GIANNIS...Embiid, Joker, Edwards, nor Tatum can compare to your greatness!

The Milwaukee Trailblazers put up a good fight yall 🔥🔥🔥 👏

Whatever they do, keep doc rivers keep building from within don’t trade the picks be more patient

Man, this is serious.I pray that he gets really better.

Should be NO Olympics for Kawhi, Giannis nor Embiid..thinking!

Achilles for sure

Don't worry about a game l am praying 🙏 for you l ask my Heavenly Father to heal you and have the faith he will do it Giannis l still love you man

Didn't get to see Giannis in pretty much the 2 best years of an NBA player's career at the ages of 28 and 29 in the postseason. He'll be 30 next year. Still in his prime, but those days are starting to get numbered

‘Never google an injury ever’ lol

Dude got nothing to prove anymore - he already won everything at least the important ones.

Bro better start wirking on that jumper

they reported his brother Thanasis Antetokounmpo tore his achillies at the end of the pacers series, it might be just a matter of time until Giannis pops his. He needs to change his training schedule strengthen up the calf muscle, do swimming, run long distances, and most importantly stretch and do yoga possibly to prevent a serious injury like this.

Achilles was about to POP

Without him they are a lottery team

Please don't adjust your game🙏🙏your game is perfect...one of one

Get healthy and run it back. Without a doubt, a healthy trio of Giannis, Dame, and playoff Khris is an absolute nightmare trio. Gonna need to manage their minutes in the regular season and somehow get a few good complimentary pieces. They desperately need a good 3 and D guy. Bucks front office is gonna have their hands full though trying to figure it out. Aging vets, bloated contracts, and basically zero trade capital.

Revenge tour coming next year!!

Unlike Kawhi, he was actually trying to come back

It’s sad they had so many injuries cause they had could have made it to the second round

Giannis sacrificed everything for this season just to get injured in the end 😭

It makes me really hoppy to hear he wants to go out his way to spend time with specifically Dame & Doc this off season.

So youre saying that this season was failure?

Bucks fans were talking so much trash when Celtics fans said “Celtics weren’t trying the last few games of the season” then Giannis goes down and crickets! That’s exactly why you don’t go hard towards the end of the regular season! Not worth it for an ego win!

Give Jrue for Lillard nice move Giannis Dont worry this is not a loss just another step to the success😂😂

need to load manage you next season and get rid of the shooting coach

"So Giannis last season was a failure, how about this one ?" Giannis: MFKER

you have to wonder if this suggests Porzingis won't be back for a long time for the Celtics

My boi we gettin old 30 NEXT YEAR

man Ive never seen Giannis down like this, he seems defeated and I’m not talking about the recent series

Giannis wins mvp next year

Khris isn't easy to watch when he is on the court. He's not available enough and he's just not the same player he once was. I almost think Thanasis also needs to move into a front office role or something. This team is old & slow on defense. Look at GS. They had younger guys who played a major role in at least the last championship they won.

This season was lost as soon as he went down. It sucks smh

Say goodbye to Dame he's gone .... Enjoy that lucky chip

Now how come doc said he’s very very close to

Are some peole in the comment actually that dumb? Bunch of haters and trash spewing people. Get well soon Giannis.

Why don’t they just disclose injury status? NBA has the worst injury reporting in pro sports.

😢dissatisfied season

There are players yall would NOT let say something like this 😂 Im glad he didnt play obviously but if Embiid did this yall would not have been supportive.

Giannis is like lebron 2.0 always making Excuses ain't no Dawg Mentality in today's NBA players once I make the NBA I will be single handedly winning championships.

That is a Statement to the Fanbase. Ben Simmons i hope you watch this, you Assh888.

Embiid played

Sad

one thing u cant prevent is injuries play too much say oh he needs rest dont play enough say oh his is not in shape/body not ready of that

So there was no chance of him playing

Time to look into free agency

Could have rested him the last 2 weeks, but NO. Let him play hurt

I bet people who bought playoff tickets wished they knew this

Giannis should seriously be considered for a future Bond villain. He's got the look and the accent.

Doc rivers is like a boil.

It starts with the coaching staff and then the strength and conditioning department. This is a failure on the latter. The head of the team is fronted by an obese woman. You can’t make this up! Small market typically gets leftover personnel in this area and it shows. When the injury occurred it confirmed my thoughts leading up to that he may need to change his game to limit this from occurring moving forward.

BUT... 30 or 40% of HIM "WAS VERY PLENTY TO WIN THE SERIES"

No Olympics for him

So he exposed his coach was lying

My boa fell off so quick 🥲

It’s the fault of the organization because they kept forcing him to play till the end of the season. They already got in the playoff, what a joke.

Yet Jamal Murray was told by doctors he couldn't play hit the game winner to close the series and dunked on LeBron 💪🏾

He would’ve played if he could’ve.

Please Gianni’s don’t play for Greece

Luckily he didn’t play. Look what happened to KD

Its normal to lose not s failure bcoz jordan play 15 years he got 2 rings so other 13 year is failure no, its sport broo😅

Bricklayer

So doc lied

Giannis: gonna spend time in Portland with Dame. Talk with Doc about strategy. ESPN: Giannis wants out of Milwaukee

Ginnias why are you akways convenienty injured in the playoffs?

First, it’s not your fault. It’s a widespread problem. Your body is too young to have this type of injury. Figure out why your body has been weakened. Then get stronger and prevent this type of injury in the future by eliminating the cause (Hippocrates).

Don't let them tear u down. Cut that white slick slander out.. get better. See u next year king

That’s what you get for injuring Kyrie

WHAT A CLOWN!! JUST SAY THE SCRIPT CALLED FOR YOU TO GO DOWN!! '"YOUR AS GOES DOWN IN THE FIFTH!" MARCELLUS WALLACE -

Probably better that they lost then. Wouldn't have made it through the second round without him

Lol talking about being injury being around a player but he stepped in hard on Kyrie and twisted his ankle before

A diet

Stop the cap he was ducking the pacers

Sorry Bucks fan but either trade him and his talentless brother now or stare into the abyss as he does to you the exact same thing LeBum has done to the once great L.A. Lakers …

I can work an 11 hour back to back shift when my legs hurting. Why can't he play in the playoffs?

I was waiting for him to start crying😂
