ATLANTA — If the NBA has a bionic man, Giannis Antetokounmpo was the picture of it.
Limber, muscular, indestructible.
He was supposed to be the one constant in a season full of bad luck and instability, a symbol of the new era coming in while being established enough to be with the old guard, too.
It looked like he would single-handedly shake the Milwaukee Bucks from their lethargy, taking over the third quarter against an energized and Trae Young-less Atlanta Hawks squad.
But in one swoop, he fell in a heap after contesting a Clint Capela dunk, apparently hyperextending his left knee, if not worse — proving hardly anyone will emerge from this postseason unscathed.
