As could be expected, Giannis Antetokounmpo was not pleased after Mario Hezonja dunked on him and then stepped over him during Saturday night's Knicks win over the Bucks. 

"'I'm going to punch him in the nuts next time," Antetokounmpo said after the game, according to Stefan Bondy of the New York Daily News, who said the comment was not made as a joke. 

Meanwhile, Hezonja didn't regret a thing, though he said the below before hearing Antetokounmpo's quote. 

"Honestly, if you're afraid, this is not for you," he said, according to Steve Popper. "I don't want to be disrespectful, but if you feel fear this is not the place for you, New York is not a place for you and this team is not a place for you."

The Knicks and Bucks next play on Christmas day at Madison Square Garden in the front end of a home-and-away. 

Until then, we can watch this and imagine the kind of presents the two will give eachother in less than a month.
