So many people had thoughts on Blake Griffin being traded to the Detroit Pistons on Monday, including Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks.
When Antetokounmpo was asked about his thoughts on the trade, he answered with seemingly the first thing that came to his mind.
“He gotta get a jacket, one,” Antetokounmpo said, causing the reporters around him to laugh.
Watch the video below to see his reaction to the trade.
Antetokounmpo's reaction is pretty much indicative of what many felt when the the news broke about the trade. It was difficult to make sense of it in the moment, and that led to memes, jokes and general snark in between all the honest analysis.

At the same time, however, Griffin hails from Oklahoma, a place that has its own bouts with extreme weather. Griffin will be fine weather-wise, most likely.
But Griffin may need more basketball advice than advice on the weather. He has only ever played in Los Angeles, and most of his career he has played for Doc Rivers.
Now Griffin has to move to a new city, with a new coach and new teammates, and play in a new system. That has to be difficult. Plus, he got traded right in the middle of winter.
Perhaps Antetokounmpo will call Griffin and give him options for durable and effective jackets, while also sprinkling words of encouragement.
