It turns out the Milwaukee Bucks sent Jon Horst, Doc Rivers, and Darvin Ham to Cyprus for more than just watching Giannis Antetokounmpo play for Greece, as Thanasis Antetokounmpo officially re-signed with the Bucks to a guaranteed minimum deal over the weekend! Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti start by breaking down how Thanasis can help Milwaukee rebuild the team's defensive identity this season now that he's back before moving onto the shameless ESPN reporting about Giannis thinking about leaving ending, for at least a few months. They also cover the Greek national team, who lost Tuesday morning but is in pole position to finish first in their group with a win against Spain on Thursday.

Late August is usually a dead time for NBA podcasts but this summer Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti have been busy! They start this week’s Gyro Step by quickly mentioning the in-state Green Bay Packers pulling off a great trade for Micah Parsons, but left the full discussion to Numac and Jordan Treske of Talk of the Tundra. Be sure to listen all the way through the episode, as the TOTT Parsons breakdown is included after Ti and Rohan finish up. And go subscribe to Talk of the Tundra on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your pods!Giannis Antetokounmpo’s debut in the Group Stage for Greece this year took place Thursday, as Greece took down Italy despite none of Giannis’ teammates managing more than 9 points. Ti and Rohan compare the Greek team to the Milwaukee Bucks squad around Giannis, and explain why Bucks fans should be rooting for a great Greek run. Then we get to the meat of the episode: Ti and Rohan’s Eastern Conference NBA tier lists. As usual they agree on many of the teams, although the bottom half of the East prompted quite a few spirited arguments on who wants to tank and just how bad the Chicago Bulls will be next season.  GSPN's Bucks podcasts are presented by PrizePicks – Go to PrizePicks.com/Gyrostep and use code GYROSTEP for a $50 bonus when you play $5 for the first time!

Oklahoma City and Utah are unsurprisingly the top and bottom, respectively, of the lists, but the Gyro Step hosts had plenty of disagreements between them to debate.

The Milwaukee Bucks roster is complete, but with less top end talent alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo than we've seen since Giannis reached MVP level. Who will fill out the top end of the rotation around the Greek Freak? That's the question Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti set out to answer on the latest Gyro Step podcast, as they both shared their rankings of the entire Bucks roster, 1-15. Obviously each of them had Giannis first and they ended up with the same top three, but their HUGE disagreement on the fourth spot kicked off a very fun middle segment of the pod.   GSPN's Bucks podcasts are presented by PrizePicks – Go to PrizePicks.com/Gyrostep and use code GYROSTEP for a $50 bonus when you play $5 for the first time!

Support the Gyro Step by downloading PrizePicks today! The Milwaukee Bucks have a full roster with more than 10 players worthy of rotation minutes, which portends a puzzle for head coach Doc Rivers. Gyro Step hosts Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti took a stab at figuring out the rotations for Doc, both drawing up their ideal realistic Bucks rotations position by position. For once, they disagreed! Prior to the rotation talk, Ti and Rohan covered the Cole Anthony signing one more time, Giannis Antetokounmpo joining Greece’s preliminary roster for EuroBasket 2025, and the reporting from Eric Nehm of The Athletic featuring Bucks GM Jon Horst discussing A.J. Green’s extension.

The Milwaukee Bucks roster is full for the moment with the signing of Chris Livingston, so Ti Windisch welcomed Camille Davis of Locked on Bucks (as well as the TECKnical Foul and Pack-a-Day podcasts) to discuss the whole thing. Follow Camille on Twitter, Bluesky and Instagram @CamilleMonae!Specific topics include whether Jon Horst is really “done” with the Bucks roster moves, who should/will start and who won’t play around the new Giannis Antetokounmpo and Myles Turner frontcourt, the different kinds of skills and attributes most important on a Point Giannis team, and the high ceilings of AJ Green and Ryan Rollins.
