Giannis Antetokounmpo shocked the NBA world – and four GSPNers live on a podcast – on Monday night when he signed a three-year extension ahead of the midnight deadline to re-affirm his commitment to the Milwaukee Bucks and prove he meant it when he said he wanted to retire a Buck and that he was pleased with the trade to acquire Damian Lillard.

All four of Ti Windisch, Rohan Katti, Jordan Treske, and Adam McGee were partially through their Bucks X-factors when this news broke, so this podcast has their real-time reaction and processing of the tremendous news (at the 16:15 mark), along with those X-factors AND each hosts’ picks for playoff and play-in teams in each conference.

The X-factors covered include Giannis and Dame’s fit, Adrian Griffin’s performance in his first season as head coach, how Brook Lopez adapts to new schemes, Jae Crowder aka BOSSMAN99’s potential bounce-back season, Khris Middleton’s effectiveness and health after battling injuries, and Andre Jackson Jr. and MarJon Beauchamp potentially factoring into a real role on the roster.
