The perimeter defense of the wing players is going to have to be on point against the Bucks because with Brook Lopez's range Steven Adams won't be able to patrol the paint as much to help clean up defensive mistakes.
We have no answer for Greek Freak so I'm not even going to bother with the what ifs. He's one of those guys like KD who you just have to hope they miss more shots than they make.
My prediction is Bucks 116, OKC 111.
Disagree tbh, I think the trio of PG/Grant/Adams is kind of a tough matchup for him. With defending Giannis it's not a one-man job but a mix of like 2-3 long/athletic forwards + a big, strong defensive C, and hoping the Bucks shooters miss. OKC has that personnel imo.
