Why The Milwaukee Bucks Do The Deal 

Is that a real question? Of course a pairing of Giannis Antetokoumnpo and Damian Lillard could win an NBA championship. In fact, this may be the very best duo in the NBA. 

They’d complement each other in theory as well. Antetokoumnpo is arguably the best two-way player in the NBA. Shooting is his only weakness.

Lillard is an elite off-the-dribble shooter, but his defense is questionable. The floor balance between these two is impeccable. 

Sure, the Bucks will miss Holiday’s elite defense. If they win a title this year, they probably don’t even do this deal.

Should the Blazers really part with him?
