Damian Lillard Can Fulfill the Championship Expectation of Bucks?

Although the NBA championship banners are hanging overhead, Lillard seems at par with the stunning climax, hence ending up with the Bucks. After all, the team has finally got the greatest one-two punch since the first championship win in 1971 made the headlines. However, the question still looms large, whether the duo will have a play akin to that portrayed by Kareem Abdul Jabbar and Oscar Robertson.?

The two-time former MVP, Giannis Antetokounmpo in an interaction with Andscape said?A guy that is built from the same cloth as you. A guy that is a killer. He plays with a chip on his shoulder. He?s been good for so many years in the league, dominating the league and having a guy that you can go to war every single day that wants it as bad as you want. It is always a good feeling.??

However, both the players know the ground reality and Lillard is getting his pace set to the other teammates. A lot of work has to be done before the team hits the courts.?
