The awesome thing about the Bucks (aside from the fact that they're my home team) is they did this the old fashioned way. Giannis and Middleton have grown up here and developed into stars. Their rookie year the Bucks went 15-67. They know the pain of failure. There was no BS super team garbage. They actually built this from the ground up, just like the Chiefs did. Started off as nothing and built themselves into champions against all odds. Makes it so much more meaningful. They were so close the last few years and finally broke through. It seems so much more real that way.
It once again just comes down to ownership. Once Hunt decided the Chiefs were going to be an elite NFL franchise, he made it happen. Same with ownership in Milwaukee. They spared no expense and built a culture consisting of nothing but winning at every level. Funny how that works. |

They remind me a little of the Spurs. No surprise with coach Bud. Giannis is a little like Robinson and Duncan too. Low key, Home grown superstar who could have left but decided to stay and truly build his own legacy. Congrats to the Bucks! |

One thing KC and the Bucks have shown me is that teams that constantly underachieve (like the Packers) mostly do so because they're content just being good and collecting their fans' money. They'd rather do that than risk anything or spend the extra dough. When you're right on the brink of being great it is entirely possible to take the next step if you truly have people at the top committed to excellence who spare no expense. Hunt and the Bucks ownership group are as good as they come. |

Quite frankly, I was just thrilled to see a finals where two teams who actually built something from the ground up in a small market get a shot to be in the spotlight, rather than just another LeBron vs *Insert other superteam here* yet again. One of them being the Bucks was even better. Very refreshing. |

This was the best playoff series in ages. Tell me I'm wrong. Maybe we should stop the madness that sports are better with the same players and teams winning all the time.
