At the same time, we would be so much better with Giannis getting 38 minutes that it almost doesn't even matter to pick the first two games apart.
Whatever
Just in terms of style of play and roster composition, the Pacers are a bad match up for the Bucks even with Giannis. I'd still have the Bucks strongly favored with Giannis, but the Bucks are the best possible matchup by far in the 1st round out of the top teams for Indy.
Hopefully, Giannis can play in game 3 because this could be another 1st round knockout if he doesn't.
