The Daily Sweat: Bucks asking Giannis to do it all, and maybe it's too much

With no offense to Nikola Jokic, Joel Embiid or LeBron James as he nears 40, the Milwaukee Bucks have the best player in the world.

They'll ask Giannis Antetokounmpo to do it all in normal times, as they should. When Khris Middleton is out with a knee injury, it's all on the reigning NBA Finals MVP's shoulders. That wasn't a great formula on Monday night.

Having Antetokounmpo is a good place to start, but he's probably going to need some help if the Bucks are going to survive the second round of the NBA playoffs.
