I think we can all agree that MIL is the superior team over BRK.
So why is it that our total difference of the 4 game sweep vs the Nets was a combined 18 pts, and we just beat MIL by 23 pts in Game 2?

We shot a ridiculous percentage from 3 in Game 2, 46.5%. That kind of shooting on 43 attempts is huge. Also, I think there's a natural tendency for the road team to relax a little if they've won Game 1.

Why I believe this team legitimately can beat MIL. We can shut down scorers.
Giannis is scoring, but not efficiently and at high volumes, and this will keep up the entire series.
We stopped, arguably, the top 2 best individual scorers in the game today (Durant and Kyrie).
Giannis is not as versatile a scorer as them.
Out defense is unbelievable.

I disagree. I think Giannis is way better than Durant or Kyrie. Durant and Kyrie are done. The Nets are a lotto team next year.

Giannis in transition or with his near unstoppable euro layup is a beauty to watch whilst also putting me in so much pain as he torches the Cs with his go-to move. It is more reliable than KD's legendary mid range or Kyrie's acrobatic layups. So I agree, Giannis is a scarier offensive threat than the other two. Just the sheer overwhelming power and speed.

The point is though that our defense has neutralized arguably the top scorers in the league. And that boasts well for our chances of advancing.
