Giannis explored Knicks trade plus Bucks preseason debut win coverage
Thanks to PrizePicks for sponsoring this episode!
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s mulling this summer was reportedly quite real after all and led to actual conversations about the superstar taking his talents to New York, per an ESPN report on Tuesday morning. Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti of the Gyro Step planned to deep dive the Milwaukee Bucks first preseason game but instead dove into why they believe this report vs others in the past and what it means for the Bucks and Giannis in the short and long term, why the Knicks are a tough trade partner right now, and why Giannis would pick them over another team like Cleveland.
After the Giannis convo and some quick Milwaukee Brewers talk, Ti and Rohan moved onto break down the biggest revelations from Milwaukee’s preseason win against the Miami Heat, including the debut of Myles Turner, the Bucks starting Gary Trent Jr. and A.J. Green together at the 2/3, Kyle Kuzma’s continued struggles, the point guard rotation of Kevin Porter Jr., Ryan Rollins, and Cole Anthony impressing, and Chris Livingston winning the first battle of the end of bench guys.

I'm upset with Giannis for being a prick this offseason. That said, this Knicks thing sounds as simple as the Knicks tried to acquire Giannis and the bucks said no. There is no evidence that giannis sought the trade out.
It was actually Kuzma that Bam got the big block on, KPJ paid them back with a crazy block of his own. He was sending Bam a message on that block.
It doesn't bother me of Giannis exploring his options to win. I expect every player who is serious about winning to explore their options. We're going to probably end trading him anyway to recoup on all the bad trades we made over the years. We have drained our future and will need to replenish.
Kuz Kuz Kuz………. I just don't know.
Think I’d have a hard time rooting for KAT if he came in trade for GA.
Too early for this conversation, but Nance and Smith are the Bobby replacements.
Trade Kuz this season, Trade Bobby next season or year after, I LOVE Green, but i think GTJ can do more on offense, Green is a trade piece with his new contract
Watch Horst cook
that would be crazy giannis going to nicks ..would be great win win …we get a new younger team to compete and little peace ..and giannis wouuld go to a crazy market …and win most lickely a championchip he wont ever win with bucks again …sorry but no way they can manage it ever before he leaves ..no picks …lilard on contract ..no cap space ..sadly would love to see him do it again here with the bucks but no way this going to happen …sadly
He blocked kuzma not kpj. Kpj was absolute gold out there. Hugh energy and intensity. Efficient. Set the team up, looked natural.
Myles was also great. I noticed he kept the guys moving. There were some inbounds guys were lollygagging around and Turner verbal and physically motioned them to run
giannis has more chance leaving for greece to escape the political climate with his family vs asking for a trade
i believe that is fake another media trick to try take giannis from a small market
Giannis just has to post on ig the "oh shit here we go again " meme
Now looking good.
Nothing like a cold bucket of water report to get right as the preseason starts. Still excited for Bucks basketball but this was a rather downer discussion.
Bucks media blackout today no player interviews
I'm a Bucks fan…Giannis plays for the Bucks, so by default I'm a huge fan of him. I couldn't care less about the Bucks trading Giannis as long as they get the biggest deal in NBA history for him. No deals, no favors, enough picks & players to start the new era of Bucks Basketball!
Bucks will end up in Vegas
Bro at this point, Trade him after this season. I love the Bucks and Giannis , but im sick of the same stuff every year. "He is evaluating his future with the team", blah blah blah. Does he want to be here or not, get to it. Im sick of this stuff every off season with Giannis, and BSPN makes it worse with their Narratives and BS. Its like a code red on Milwaukee right now to trade this man. 82 game season ahead of us and this report is coming out now?
48:33 is when they actually start to talk about the game against Miami
I hate to use the D word but Giannis is becoming a stone cold Diva ! Staying in Greece while Horst does all he can freeing cap space trading Dame stretching his salary getting Turner signing younger more athletic players .. changing the playing style to fit Giannis getting players to fit it and then saying nah ?
Real Dick move Giannis
How do you think Gianni’s saying this roster isn’t good enough will go over with his teammates ??
Sabotaging the season ? It ain’t gonna inspire loyalty toward the “ team leader “
If the Bucks shit the bed this year, then I'll get worried. Otherwise, for now, this is a non-story getting blown up way out of proportion for clicks and buzz.
Damn Kuz😂
