"Giannis is going to be Giannis.... He put his imprint on the game in a different way."

Milwaukee now faces the Boston Celtics in the second round, who have been one of the most impressive teams in the league as of late.

While he didn't shoot efficiently, Antetokounmpo still showed that he's arguably the best player in the league. After defeating the Chicago Bulls in the opening round of the playoffs, the Milwaukee Bucks look to be finding their groove once again.
