Almost unfair for the Suns to have to play against a one man, Superman team. The before and after photos of Giannis gaining 50lbs+ of muscle, power and strength is more than scary impressive. He should share his body building routine with the rest of the league so they can all catch up. Giannis could have a career in the WWE when he tires of BB. SMACKDOWN! Greek Freak!

[@presidentresident]

There's no secret...He worked out for mass, was already on a testosterone analog(as most of them are) and is near 7 ft tall. 50lbs is nothing with those conditions. Any of them would just need to add weight training for mass.

Jrue Holiday isn't Bledsoe and they are putting Giannis in different positions on the court to make it harder for teams to make a wall. And even if they built the wall they didn't have the personnel of maintaining it like the 2019 Raptors. They don't have Lowry, Green, and Kawhi at the perimeter with Siakam ready to help, Gasol and Ibaka waiting at the rim, and the 100 other defensive coverages Nick Nurse showed at the perimeter 6:37 Giannis was actually elite from mid-range this series and borderline elite this who playoffs.
