They took a 3-2 series lead behind a monster 25-point, 12-rebound and eight-block performance by Patrick Ewing. But nobody was really talking about that. Why? Because the news broke during the game that Al Cowlings was driving O.J. Simpson in the infamous white Bronco as the police chased them. Funny enough, it made a lot of us miss Anthony Mason going after Hakeem Olajuwon!Freak WeekA Giannis Q&A with Bucks expert Eric NehmMany teams in the league appear to be operating under the assumption that the Milwaukee Bucks are close to trading away Giannis Antetokounmpo. To whom, you ask? Uh … I don’t know. I’m not sure anybody knows. I’m not even sure the Bucks know.The Miami Heat have been on Giannis’ radar for years, and word around the trade deadline was they had the best offer on the table (Kel’el Ware, Tyler Herro, draft picks and maybe more). That doesn’t mean it’s necessarily enough to pry him away from Milwaukee.There have been rumors lately that the Boston Celtics want to put more pressure on the rim by acquiring Giannis. However, they’d have to move Jaylen Brown to do that, and they won a title two years ago with him and Jayson Tatum together. A lot of other teams want to be in the mix, but they have to feel comfortable that Giannis will sign a contract extension with them.So what’s going to happen? Will it happen soon? Nobody better to ask than Eric Nehm, The Athletic’s Bucks guru.Are you certain that the Giannis situation will be resolved (at least with an agreement in place) within the next week?Nehm: The reason there’s a belief that this will be settled by next week is the artificial deadline that Bucks co-owner Jimmy Haslam laid down at the introductory news conference for new coach Tyalor Jenkins on May 6. But there is no rule or contractual deadline dictating this has to be done before the NBA Draft gets underway on Tuesday.Antetokounmpo cannot sign an extension with the Bucks until Oct. 1, so the draft deadline is a manufactured one. But it is quite logical. If the Bucks are going to trade the 31-year-old Antetokounmpo this offseason, getting it done in time to get additional selections in this year’s draft makes sense.Do you think it’s down to Miami or Boston as the likely trade partner?Nehm: Those are the two most likely teams, yes. But that doesn’t mean they are the only two places that the Bucks could send Antetokounmpo.As we reported last week here at The Athletic, one of the defining traits of this offseason’s batch of trade discussions surrounding Antetokounmpo is a hesitancy from many teams to get caught up in a bidding war for the two-time NBA MVP, only to see him put on a different team’s jersey. The fear being that they could potentially offend their own players with trade rumors and then not end up with Antetokounmpo.
