On Sunday, beloved Bucks' MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo asked Milwaukee fans to "be loud" in a social media video. 

"We’re going back home. And we’re one game away. Be loud. We need you guys to do this. Be loud," Giannis says in the video. 

And loud we can do. And will do. Especially with 65,000 fans expected to show up to the Deer District Tuesday night for game six of the NBA finals. No doubt Milwaukee will be absolutely bananas on Tuesday – even more bananas then Mikal Bridges' shoes – but still, there is a big difference between going bananas and going absolutely out-of-control ape sh*t.

Let's be LOUD and classy, Milwaukee.

Let's also promise not to pull a Philly and destroy our Downtown. Instead of flipping a Corolla – or The Hop, ahem – can we super-hug our friends, high five strangers and scream until our vocal chords revolt in silence?

Haven't we already embarrassed ourselves enough after the akward AF Ja Rule halftime show in 2019?

Let's be LOUD and classy, Milwaukee.

Let's also remember the people who have to clean up a trashed city are probably Bucks fans, too. Let's fill the streets with love not vandalism. Let's yell and cry and dance and thank the b-ball gods and maybe even get a little drunk. But for the love of Giannis, let's just BE LOUD.
