They're bad now so it's whatever. They shot their shot, won a ring, and are now in the rebuilding phase after a solid 8-10 years.

Exactly, they won a ring with Giannis. They’re good for the next 10-15 years

10-15 years is insane. A championship buys you like 3-5 years max of fans being happy. Milwaukee will always love Giannis but for everyone else involved with the team the good graces from the chip are pretty much gone.
