LILIANA RIVERA GARZA (4/10/1969 - 16/7/1990). Sigues aquí, mi chiquita. Sigues en la universidad, platicando con tu mejor amiga, haciendo planes para el futuro. Te extrañamos. Te queremos. Un abrazo desde Tijuana. #JusticiaParaLiliana#JusticiaParaTodas
You came to Milwaukee 13 years ago as a kid from Sepolia with an impossible dream. Over the past 13 years we have witnessed you grow into one of the greatest players the game has ever seen, the greatest Buck of all time, and the driving force behind an era of Bucks basketball that will be remembered forever.
From the moment you arrived, you embraced Milwaukee as your home. You embraced the team, the community, and everyone who believed in you. Your connection with Bucks fans transcended basketball. You didn’t just play basketball in Milwaukee, you became the heart and soul of this city. You touched lives throughout our community and inspired people across the world. You believed in this city and its fans when the rest of the world doubted.
After 50 years, you delivered a championship to Milwaukee. A dream come true for generations of Bucks fans who never stopped believing. You gave Milwaukee hope. You taught us that loyalty still matters. That hard work can overcome impossible odds, and that a small-market city could still be on top all because you refused to stop believing. For one night, Milwaukee wasn’t just watching history, we were living it together.
Your legacy in Milwaukee is secured and will always be felt here. In the rafters, throughout the community, in the countless people you inspired, and the way you made an entire city believe that anything was possible.
Thank you for believing in Milwaukee and giving everything you had to this city day in and day out. You transformed the Bucks in every way, and left your mark on this organization for generations to come. You’ll always be family. You’ll always be Milwaukee’s champion. Forever a part of this city. Forever a Buck. Thank you for everything, Giannis.
Thank you Giannis…
For keeping the Bucks in Milwaukee
For staying throughout all the noise
For a championship

For being the greatest to ever put on a Bucks uniform
For everything
Giannis as a Buck:
— Champion

— 9x All-NBA
— 5x All-Defense

End of an era.
That said, the last 8 or so years of media coverage had sadly prepared me for his inevitable departure and part of me is relieved that the will he/won’t he saga is over.
I wish him all the individual success in the world, but no team success. Farewell my goat. Go Bucks.
Hard to put into words how much Giannis has meant to me as a sports fan. Truly the best player I’ve ever had the pleasure of watching on one of my teams and the driving force in the only championship I’ve ever seen one of my teams win. He left a massive imprint on Milwaukee.
¡UN DÍA QUE NUNCA OLVIDARÁ! 🥹 ❤️
El momento cuando Gabriela Jaquez es selección por Chicago Sky 🏀 👏
La emoción de su familia al ver que la mexicana llega a la WNBA 🙏
