I thought this was an important point regarding Giannis and the Bucks. Giannis and Jabari are so good getting to the basket, and with their size and length, are practically impossible to defend 1-on-1. Watching the Cavs, they have surrounded James and Irving with 3-point shooters. I believe the Cavs take and make the most 3's in the league (maybe only behind the Warriors). The Bucks have done a good job adding players that can shoot the 3 but need to still add more. Last year they were abysmal from 3. Middleton coming back will certainly help as well.
