John: “We pretended we forgot how good Clay Thompson is”

The “Greek Freak” idolized Thompson, meaningfully adding that the Bucks pretended to … have forgotten how good the Warriors star is by not being on the floor, while also saying good things about Serge Ibaka.

Giannis explained in detail:

For what works well for the Bucks after the All Star Game: “We play hard, united, without selfishness and trusting in our game. Today we didn’t fight as hard as we should. Obviously, Steph is one of the best players in the league and we made it difficult for him but we managed it .” a lot of mistakes.“.

For what he’s working on right now: “We only build good habits. We still have a few games left and we want to get the best possible position, although that doesn’t matter in the East. We have to keep working on it and building good habits in defense and attack so that we are ready in May and June.”

For the appearance of Clay Thompson: “We hadn’t seen him for a long time due to injuries and it was like we forgot who he is. Then he fired off a shot or two and then the third, the fourth and we weren’t as pushy as we should have been.

We certainly didn’t want to start that way, but I’m happy for Clay and everyone who’s been through it and coming back to the highest level. “Not against us, of course, but he deserves praise, he played great and I’m happy for him.”

For the fact that the Warriors seemed to win all personal duels: “We didn’t fight hard enough. We lost a lot of balls, rebounds, we got nails. “We have to try harder.”

Because they had enough gaps and if that was down to the Warriors: “I don’t remember that time. We kept doing the right thing and taking free-kicks, they just didn’t come in. It’s not in our control. I was just thinking about how to create situations for our team.“.

For giving Ibaka solutions to the attack again and what he saw of him: “He’s aggressive. He goes to his points, he works close to the basket, he shoots well. He plays hard and feels more comfortable with us.”“.

For Brooke Lopez and his upcoming comeback: “I’m glad his return is coming. He’s been working hard for months and I’m glad he’ll be back soon. He’ll balance the team. We miss him, we need him but I’m just happy.” for him because I know what he’s been through.”
