Celtics have to wake up and realize that Giannis is 100x the better passer than KD

- Doubling teaming Giannis and loading up doesn't work that well because He is a great passer, played point guard in his early career, he has a great ability to find shooters
- Doubling also doesn't work because He has Shaq-like strength and it will not really deter him
- I would defend him 1-on-1 with Horford, Timelord, etc and take your chances there. You also got Theis and Luke Kornet to add 12 more fouls just in case
- Stay home on the shooters. MAKE THE SHOOTERS PUT THE BALL ON THE FLOOR. Make them shot creators, which is their weakness. With Middleton gone, they only have Drew Holiday on the team as the only shot creator

I can't believe the Lakers had a chance to re-sign Brook and just let him walk...What an incompetent organization.

In their defense (no pun intended), this Brook Lopez is a completely different player now compared to what he was then. The Milwaukee system is a perfect for him with stability and his skillset that just wouldn’t have been the case in LA.

I was saying this during the Chicago series. Giannis is unguardable. When the Bucks role players are left open to hit open shots they have proven that they will make them.

Boston made Giannis miss a lot of shots tonight, but he was still dominant because he was facilitating well throughout the game. You have to take something away from him. The plan to clamp down on everyone else doesn't work against them if you turn the ball over. Milwaukee is tough in transition

I wouldn’t say Giannis is a better passer, it’s the Bucks system that is predicated on moving the ball. Bud had the Hawks doing the same shyt and it led to us being in the conference finals. Pretty much everyone sees the ball in a good position.

The Nets are running a system on making a move to score, Bucks are making moves to get the best shot no matter who it is.
