Not really. Him and Saric are decent rotation players but their 9th and 10th men

They only need their top 8 to win this series now that this is the final round


8th and 9th men but your point stands. Phoenix can run with 7 the rest of the way just fine if they need to. As long as no one else gets hurt they won’t feel those losses at all.

You'll definitely feel the losses if the series goes to 6, 7 games having just 7 bodies that you are truly willing to play

Wow. Clippers really would have won the championship if healthy. What a shame. Phoenix is smacking them around.

Jrue plays bad every other game so not that rare.

I’m naming the things I’ve seen him so over the course of the playoffs, not what he’s exactly doing at the moment. Reread my post again. And he’s always going to stop and take a shot they give him. He’s not somebody that’s going to be Constant at attacking. You are living on a dream thinking that’s going to be a consistent thing for him

I mean that was my original point dude. He has the ability to just straight dominate and that is what his team needs from him right now. I don't care about what happened in prior series dude, we are in the Finals.

My point to you, is, that’s not Giannis to do that non stop, over the course of time, especially if he’s hurt and now he’s on the bench looking hemmed up. You expecting something from a player that’s not going to do that. This is the same man that had one legged Harden on him and took a fadeaway lol. He’s always going to pull up or take questionable shots.

They play so disciplined. Leaves their opponents no margin for error.

I'll never forgive you guys for arguing that Middleton was the Bucks' Batman after that 1st game vs Miami

Portis might be a go, he does bring energy into the game. Bucks are going through the motions besides Giannis.
