Giannis Antetokounmpo reacts to boos from the crowd in Milwaukee
Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks were embarrassed on their home floor Tuesday as they were blown out by the Minnesota Timberwolves, 139-106.
The Bucks still failed to win even though the Timberwolves were already severely handicapped without Anthony Edwards, who was sidelined with a foot injury, and Rudy Gobert, who was serving a one-game suspension.
Their lackluster effort was unforgivable to fans on the Fiserv Forum, a shower The Bucks, who fell to 17-23with the whistle blowing in the third quarter.
Antetokounmpo, however, he simply deleted it.
“I’ve never been a part of (it). Right? Right? I think so. It’s kind of new to me. It doesn’t change. It’s the same thing. It doesn’t matter. I thrive through adversity. I thrive when people don’t believe in me. It doesn’t matter if I’m on the road, if I’m at home, if I’m at home, if I’m at dinner. “It doesn’t matter,” the two-time MVP said in a video posted by the Bucks.
“So yeah, I’ve never been a part of anything like that before, so it was something new for me. I like it though. I love it.”

Antetokounmpo, who is the subject of trade rumorshe was booed by the fans when he made the and-1 play. They fell by 29 points.
He finished with 25 points, eight rebounds and five assists. He also had seven turnovers.
Perhaps it would be wise for the nine-time All-Star to be more responsible instead of just dismissing fan backlash. After all, he often credited them with his success.
The Bucks are spiraling, and maybe, some noise doesn’t need to die down completely.
