Giannis is out there in warmups dribbling around looking pretty fluid with that knee... wouldn't be surprised if they're willing to test it. Crazy. Dude surely earned his nickname.

Holy c r a p. James Earl Jones doing the voiceover pregame segment for the series on NBAtv. Gave me some chills..

Shaq did make a good observation about that knee. He's not landing on the injured plant knee..what that proves for his playing status? Who knows.

My eyes will be glued to his driving euro step. It will put an immense amount of force on the outside of whatever plant leg he is using.

This is an important note regarding rebounding.

Monty Williams noticed how certain Bucks rebounders on offense realize when the ball isn't coming their way and they'll crash early. Monty said the recognition there to get a body on guys early is going to be key to prevent something the Bucks have been great at all playoffs.

Monty Williams said he thinks you'll see multiple Suns players defending Giannis Antetokounmpo if he plays tonight. Called him a decorated all-world player that will take a team effort to try and contain.

Yep. Not landing on that injured knee on his drives will be nearly impossible at some point in a game. I can't see how they test that already with the potential of catastrophe after already being granted huge luck after the minimal damage.

I hope Giannis plays. I hope he's fully healthy. I hope his team takes second place.

 

[Mainstreet]

It wouldn't be disrespectful Monty. No harm in asking for help.

Not surprising to me. Looks like the Yahoo Sports report, which has since been corroborated, was in fact accurate...

 

[Ronin]

Be legendary

I'll believe it when I see it.

Warm ups are a lot different than the game.

If he plays the Suns should immediately iso him in switch on Booker and CP3 and go right at him like they did with AD.

 

[JCSunsfan]

PJ Tucker is going to bait Booker. He knows exactly where Book stands in T tally.

Thank you for your sacrifice! Enjoy your vacation.

REVEREND!

I would like to see us get Mikal an easy look early. Get his confidence up. He is going to need to be locked in to guard Middleton.

 

[Cheesebeef]

ABC 15 pregame just said looks like Giannis is a go for tonight.

ATTACK. ATTACK. ATTACK.
