Suns look like the younger and better rested team too

Not even shooting, just making bad passes, well let's give credit, not all bad passes, Bucks were using their length and getting tips

Milwaukee is doing everything they can but they cannot get past Phoenix leading by ten points. Anytime Milwaukee seems to gain momentum Phoenix knocks down a 3.

No chance Giannis is with the Bucks after this season. He’s not going to waste the rest of his career with Holiday and Middleton. And nobody would blame him either

You guys are lucky to have him, and good job on the entire Phoenix organization for developing his game and confidence. He hasn't scratched the surface of his potential yet.

Despite having a horrid first half, Ayton still has 10pts, 11reb, 4ast, 3stl, 2blk as a +10 coming up big in the 4th.

Jrue has been like this basically the whole playoffs. Middleton is due for a 40 point game though.

I think the Bucks may get one at home but I won't be shocked if this is a sweep. The Suns have continue to show that they can hit big shot late.

It seems like every series, Khris Middleton has one or two really awful games. Not a great start for him in these finals.

Hmm, not the guy I would give that too, there's that other Curry, Klay, Harris, Durant, etc, but he's got a good looking stroke too


Booker over all those guys with shooting form. Him and Klay are on par. Curry's bro? naw lol
I love Book, but his game is not reliant on the shot (and not as good of shooter). His game is more triple threat and absolute nails in the clutch. More similar to Kobe than Curry.

Seems like one team is good but the other team is just better.

You can’t give up mutiply rebounds in poession . The Suns are winning ever 50/50 ball. The bucks have flaws and it shows . No outside threat , no rim protection

Bucks really have no business being in the Finals. A healthy Nets team would have taken them out and made this series far more competitive. At this point I can see the Suns winning this in 5 games.
