For those who are worried about the Celtics getting Jrue, look at this… who is gonna guard Giannis?

Horford will, and his defense isn’t all about his physicality either.
But what they don’t have is the amount of defenders to throw at Giannis this time
In 2022 they had Horford, both Williams, and Smart on him. Three of those guys are gone now
Al is gonna guard Giannis maybe Tatum
Probs just Horford but if they can just contain everyone else it won’t matter.
Giannis without Khris took them to 7 and is the only player ever to have 200 points, 100 rebounds and 50 assists for a series… Yer, they are in trouble.
Both Giannis and Dame have had to be THE guy on their teams. Having both will make it even harder for opposing defenses to stop the Bucks, plus it’ll make Midd and Brook’s jobs even easier. Not saying it’ll be easy, but the Celtics WILL be beatable.
And a Middleton at his normal level.
To be fair, that’s just what Giannis averages though, nobody can stop him. He averaged 38/11/5 over this span and last year he averaged 31/12/6.
Y’all do realize dame is gonna have to guard some very good guards in the east right?
