    Game 1

    NOC

    Series doesn’t start until the road team wins a game?

    Fair? I think so

    At 30 million a year he should be shooting 8 hours a day

    Then again he gets 30 million a year and can't shoot
    I think this kind of misses the mark but also highlights how bad it is.

    A lot of guys never become good three point shooters. Kobe and Wade were never great 3 point shooters, I don’t think anyone is ever going to call them lazy.

    Yes, he can’t shoot but the bigger problem is that you can’t even begin to fix that problem because he won’t shoot. He’s scared of the ball in the 4th quarter and he’s scared to shoot 3s. It’s bigger than “fix your shooting motion”.

    Suns looked strong again. Once again the Bucks rotations were stupid. The key to the series is Bridges and He’s moar than delivered. Monty Williams adjusted and said that Middleton isn’t getting his and Gia can get what He wants. And He did. Still wasn’t close.

    Losing Craig tonight hurts though. Suns bench is thin now with 2 injuries in 2 games. Bucks are best playing bully ball. If Holiday actually shows up to the Finals, it could be 2-2.

    I watched the first three quarters last night then looked and saw the ten points held up

    All comes down to Sunday as to whether we have a series. Suns look better

    LeGiannis needs the others to stop being soft

    Suns look better have to admit

    Skip says the Bucks are a better playoff team without Giannis. Moves Lopez to the post, allows Middleton and Holiday the space and opportunity with the ball to do what they do best. Their numbers from games 5 & 6 versus Atlanta actually back up that argument.

    Yeah but when the big guy puts in 40 find a way to do your job

    Two players have scored 30 points in the second half of a Finals game

    Isiah Thomas the Elder and Giannis

    Bucks aren't out of it but the margin of error is gone

    They also played the Hawks who overall are not a good team and only win when Trae is shooting his tits off. Skip use to be OK with his takes now he is just a senile hot take bandwagoner that cares more about his Lebron and Cowboys schtick than having good analysis.

    Very few media to listen to on the radio who are talking NBA in the Seattle market. It's basically Skip and Chris Broussard.

    Bucks had to win one to get to Suns in 5.

    I left the bar pretty early. Beat down in games 1 and 2. Wake me up when you win game 4 and 5.

    They don't have enough pure shooters to match the Suns.

    My Bucks are alive

    Giannis is doing something historic. Now he needs to FINISH

    Don't be afraid to embrace a new generation.

    What a stupid hot take to pretend the Bucks are better without Giannis. He’s not a perfect player but he’s great.

    I would love to see him win with the Bucks after the media did their typical bullshit and tried to get him to a big market after last year’s flameout.

    They were kinda right though? The Bucks aren’t a real championship contender. They’re down 2-1 to a team that would have been knocked out in the first round if everyone was healthy. They were down 2-0 to the Nets and still were a toe away from losing to Durant by himself.

    Banners fly forever or whatever but this is either the last championship he ever wins or the closest he’ll ever get with the Bucks. No one is even going to pick them to make the Finals next year, much less win it.

    Even if he wins he loses. Might as well not even play the game

    They beat the Nets by the way.

    Next season is lebron v giannis from day 1if the Bucks win

    lol what?

    Suns near coasted, wgaf if the Lakers and Clippers weren't healthy. Those GMs knew it when they took AD and KL that they were taking a risk.

    I still think the Suns are a better modern NBA team but Bucks bully people and run the damn ball.

    If they win tomorrow they're in it. If they win 2 in a row and Booker goes cold again it could be theirs.

    Great series. Everybody love it.

    If the Suns keep guarding Giannis with Booker its over

    More like Holiday guarding Booker. Saw a stat the Booker is something like 1-12 with Jrue in his grill.

    Suns need 20 from Book to win. But still will in six.

    LIPO on that one. Lakers need to add a real third wheel, and AD's health is fragile.
