“Feels good man. Getting back to our old selves. We are a really good team— we just gotta get out of our feelings. I think we get in our feelings too easy. It starts from me. Everybody gotta get out of their feelings. When things don’t go well we can’t whine, complain, demand for the ball, demand for the call, or demand for things to go well. We haven’t earned nothing. You have to go out there and earn every single possession and put yourself in a position to be successful.” remarked the Bucks superstar during his postgame availability.

With back-to-back wins for the first time since October, Milwaukee improved to 14-19 on the season. Antetokounmpo has already shifted his focus forward as the Bucks try to climb back into the Eastern Conference playoff mix and keep their postseason hopes alive.
“I love the two games we played, against Chicago, against Charlotte. We have another one against Washington. We have a great month of very tough games that is going to either make us or break us. And as long as I’m here, as long as I’m healthy, I’m just going to keep on helping the teammates, talking to them, be vocal in the locker room, be vocal in the bus, playing, practicing, film session, games, and try to make everybody believe that we got to get out of this hole and nobody’s going to make us feel comfortable,” the Greek Freak continued.
