Giannis Antetokounmpo Won’t Complain About The NBA’s Bubble Because His Apartment In Greece Was Smaller

You won ’ t hear Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo complain about being inside the NBA bubble .

Do I want the season to start in October? Absolutely not. I don’t want that to happen at all. The season needs to open August 29 as planned.
College football is meant to be played on hot nights in late August and in September. It’s not meant to start once October rolls around.
Obviously, if the choices are between not having football at all or starting in October, then I’ll choose the latter.

Also, how much time is one single month going to buy us? How much will change from September to October? I find it hard to believe much will change at all.
Are we really supposed to believe everything will be fine after another month? Yeah, that seems like a gigantic stretch to me.
We’ll see what happens, but all options have to be on the table at this point. We can’t rule anything out.
