It would be easy to become distracted. But the lone champion on this roster knows the noise has to be tuned out, especially in these moments. “You do your best to stay away. Your mental health is probably the biggest thing, especially playing in the NBA Finals,” Jrue Holiday said. “When I was in Milwaukee, it was about Giannis (Antetokounmpo) not having enough help the first two games (against the Phoenix Suns in the 2021 finals), whatever. The pressure that JB and JT have to take on is something different. I’ve told them this before, but it’s really impressive how they handle themselves, how they stay professional, how they still come out every game and do what they do.” -via New York Times / June 6, 2024
