We will defend straight up, and we will do an amazing job at it. I have an elite defensive team top to bottom here and we will look to force turnovers whenever possible.
Jrue/White are both terrific defender for Lowry as he is big, strong, has quick hands and is fast to recover
Christie/White is an ideal cover for Manu as an elite defender with elite size on the wing who both have elite level recovery as well.
Middleton/Covington/Christie will be tasked with taking on Kawhi giving me lots of looks to throw at him throughout the game to keep him on his toes.
Giannis will be tasked with Siakam, who took 70% of his shots from inside 10 feet. This lets Giannis be the free safety defensively and really lets my defense click.
Brook will take on Turner.
My offense is simple, shooter spacing around Giannis, which I really maximize that here as everyone can shoot on volume from deep and at a great percentage to boot.
I have lots of scoring from various positions with Giannis at 30ppg, Middleton at 20ppg, Jrue at 18ppg, White and Brook at 13 ppg and Christie, Covington and Olynyk all about 9ppg.
We will just run lots of screens to get the desired matchup for Giannis to attack and spread everyone out for him to have targets to toss to to bomb from deep. Middleton, Jrue and White can all be secondary scorers, Jrue, White and Christie can all be secondary ball handlers.
