Giannis Antetokounmpo admitted that the absence of LeBron James dramatically shifted the power dynamic in the Eastern Conference.
"I didn't see it as open. But now that I look back and see how everything went, it's definitely open, not having LeBron in the East and not trying to go through him," said Antetokounmpo.
Antetokounmpo also said that while no individual stood out in their game 1 win over the Raptors, the team as a whole "had a great game."
Mike Budenholzer added that Malcolm Brogdon will probably come off the bench in game 2.
