The Phoenix Suns will have to find a defensive ploy to stop Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo ahead of the next NBA finals game on Wednesday.

Suns forward Cam Johnson said that it is tough to balance that physicality when Antetokounmpo is coming hard at you. “It’s on us to stop him, give him more resistance,” he said.

“But you just got to do it. We’re capable of doing it. We know that. We’ll go back, look, see what we need to change and change it.”

The Suns are looking to win their first NBA title in their 53-year history. “We know we got to be better,” said Johnson. “There’s a lot of frustration anytime you lose. You can see it on everybody’s face. It’s a terrible feeling.

Johnson said that this terrible feeling would motivate the Suns to get back out there and go right back at Bucks in the next game.

“It affected us obviously, but we have to weather the storm,” Suns forward Jae Crowder said. “We have to adjust.
