Not saying the Bucks aren't a good team, but they are so far more hype than substance
Middleton is overrated (watch some of his low IQ plays), Giannis looked genuinely lost in their series against Celtics last season, and Bledsoe just doesn't come across as a winner
Still, they have someone called "The Greek Freak", and a recent RoTY in Brogdon, so it is inevitable that people who don't watch Pacers closely rates Bucks ahead of Pacers
Well, Giannis is the best player between the Pacers and 5e Bucks, so it’s not hard to predict the Bucks instead of the Pacers.
I don't think there's a huge gap between Giannis and Oladipo right now. Both are excellent two-way players. But until Giannis develops the 3-point range they will remain comparable in impact, IMO. Now, if you gave Giannis Victor's range, then it's suddenly not even close.
