ANALYSIS: Antetokounmpo also commented on how simple the game seems for the 21-5 Jazz.

"It just looks fun. Like when I watch them play, it looks fun, it looks easy," Antetokounmpo said. "It looks simple. For sure, they look like us last year, and man, when you're at that point and you're playing with that confidence, you're hard to beat for sure."
