with some of our bigs out, rebounding is gonna be hard but i will be very interested in seeing if Grant Williams will have a crack at defending Giannis

It's going to be interesting to see how we do guarding Giannis without Kyrie sabotaging our defense.

Giannis is going to get his numbers, but I think we will still do an over all good job.

One of the biggest problems with defending Giannis, is that one guy, no matter how great an individual defender, can't stand in front to draw a charge, because his Euro step is so big that he get just step around the guy.  Double team will be needed, or serious help defense.

I would review all the film from the Toronto series. They had a good formula. Only problem is that, as we all know, refs swallow their whistles during the playoffs. So that same defense played by Toronto may not be effective in the regular season.

I'm interested to see if the Bucks can keep up with the Cs speed, and if the Cs can keep up with the Bucks size.

And how each team tries to enforce its play style on the other.

That is unfortunate.  Hopefully it’s not one of those illnesses that spreads to 1-2 players every day or two for multiple weeks.

Lots of guys out including JB...

Looks like we are in for a scheduled 15 point loss.. Hope GH would not have one of his pedestrian 12p/5r/4a game or else we are dead.

I expect to see a lot of Semi minutes tonight.

no word but Theis is

I hope they don't start Theis and go with Robert Williams with Grant coming off the bench

My guess

starting lineup

Robert Williams
Tatum
Hayward
Smart
Walker

Looks like another heavy workout tomorrow for Grant and Robert Williams

looking forward to see what they can do

Must slow down Giannis
Expect to see lots of Jaylen Brown on Giannis.
Proof that no one should ever listen to anything I have to say!!!😅😅😅

With both Brown and Kanter out, looks like we will see lots of the Williamses (Williamsi?, Williams's?), just like you said!!

With Jaylen out, no matter what I can retain my enthusiasm for the C's.

If the C's win, well they're just that good.

If the C's lose, well they didn't have Jaylen.

It's a win/win for me now.

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class
