Giannis: “We just have to improve”

Giannis Antetokounbo explained in detail:

For what Milwaukee did wrong in defense: “The pistons did a great job, they shot. We have to praise them. In every game you know that you have to take some risks and let go of the shot by closing the racket. The Pistons punished us, circulated the ball and found a shot. You played well“.

For the Bucks’ third period now seems to be a problem: “We just need to improve in general and build good habits. Today wasn’t one of those games where we made our habits. It was a game we thought we’d take control at some point, something we didn’t. I think in the last few games we were a bit relaxed at the beginning of the second half. “Maybe we should play more as a team, not play against each other as much and focus more on defense.”

Because the Pistons got a lot of points from offensive rebounds: “They shot, they took the shots, they found the free teammate. When a team moves the ball, everyone finds a rhythm, so after an offensive rebound they turn the ball correctly and hit.”

For what the Pistons did differently and scored so many points from offensive rebounds: “Sometimes the ball just goes to the player who has more energy. If you want it more, the ball comes to you. They wanted it more.”

About the moment when the Bucks got Hollyde, Matthews and Hill together on their floor and what that means?: “It’s great to have these three on the ground. They all move their legs, mark the pick and roll with their length, we can play with changes in defense with them, while they open up the field in attack.”

Because the Bucks couldn’t maintain the momentum they built at the end of the second period into the third: “I dont know. If I had known, we would not have had this conversation. We just have to get better.

How the Bucks sometimes deal with losing free kicks and what to do to change: “Everyone has good shots in some shots that don’t come in. Maybe they should ice cream, eat something, go home to see their family so the next time the gunshots come. There will be days when we don’t plant the shots and “If we make the right decision, everything will be fine. We can control that. We cannot control whether the ball goes into the basket.”

We have training tomorrow, we will see our principles in defense and attack again, we will train and concentrate on the next game. I know it hurts to lose We have to praise the pistons, however. “We just have to work and be ready for our next fight.”
