The crushing defeat in the first round of the playoffs last season led the Greek Freak to reevaluate his position. His recent admission about his urgency to win has also led to immense speculation. Among fans of the league, Giannis’s reluctance to affirm a future in Milwaukee presents a plethora of hypothetical rosters.

In a recent such conversation, some fans deliberated on Giannis’ next move. Although nothing is clear, the conversations pose a glimmer of possibilities. Which is enough to rile the core enthusiasts of the sport.

The Bucks’ blow-out loss last season has left an enormous hole in their franchise star Giannis Antetokounmpo. It led to the firing of their head coach, Mike Budenholzer. However, the consequences don’t stop there for Milwaukee. Recent interviews of their former MVP hint at his possible exit. While things aren’t looking too good for the franchise, the NBA world is still contemplating what that change would look like.

Among the names of teams in the list, the Golden State Warriors particularly stuck out to Twitter users. While some of the fans see hope in Giannis’ arrival in the dub dynasty, many think this would ruin the league by disrupting its dynamics. Similarly, the Bucks MVP had himself commented on the same notion in a TikTok live earlier this year. A fan asked Antetokounmpo to join the Warriors to which he replied, “Nah, I’m not that kind of guy, Thanks.” 

Even after his clear reluctance fans can’t stop but think of the scenario.

Fans Divided Over ‘SuperTeam‘ Possibility

The fans seem divided on the notion of a Giannis-Steph roster, with one fan clearly expressing his thoughts, “If he goes to the warriors I’m done watching NBA”.

Many supported him in following tweets like user “TRAVY PATTIE” who says, ” I don’t think he wants a super team he just wants a good team.”

Whereas many actually welcomed the notion. “It would be cool to see what Curry and a hopefully-healthy Klay could do with Giannis opening up the floor for them imo,” he wrote. The fan further added, “We could get to see a glimpse of prime Steph and Klay again.” Another fan practically noted, “I don’t see a problem superteams are everywhere.”
