Giannis walked out mid press conference

"Antetokounmpo has consistently made public proclamations of his love for Milwaukee, as he grew up and became acclimated to American culture in Cream City after moving from Greece. Antetokounmpo adores the Bucks medical staff. His mother moved to Milwaukee. But he is all about winning. In more concrete terms, a source close to Antetokounmpo said that getting to the NBA Finals is not just an ambition, it could tip the scales as he weighs his contractual future.

And if they can reach the NBA Finals next season, the Bucks can improve their chances of signing Antetokounmpo to the supermax in the summer of 2020."

That's the full quote... I mean is it really that bad?

Basically saying "Hey he loves the city and has been public about it, but he also wants to win.. so if he sees he can continue to have success in winning with the Bucks that will probably help ensure he signs long term"

Wtf is controversial about that?
