"We aren't doing the right thing. We're not playing to win. We're not playing together. Our chemistry's not there. Guys are being selfish, trying to look for their own shots instead of looking for the right shot for the team. Guys trying to do it on their own. At times, I feel like when we're down 10, down 15, down 20, we try to make it up in one play, and it's not going to work."
"I'm not the guy that will yell and cuss his teammate out and demand the ball. I've never done that in my career. But I feel like I've played with teammates that kind of understand the gravity that I can cause for our team, in how I can create for teammates and for myself, and how I can help the team be more successful."
The Milwaukee Bucks lost 122-102 at home to the Oklahoma City Thunder, marking their fourth defeat in five games and leaving the team 18-25.

Giannis Antetokounmpo expressed frustration with teammate behavior, calling out selfish shot-seeking, poor chemistry, and insufficient effort. He said teammates often try to erase deficits with single plays rather than playing together. Antetokounmpo urged teammates to use him more to create opportunities and boost team success, noting he does not demand the ball vocally but expects teammates to recognize his playmaking impact.
