Suns won 2/3 of their road games in the regular season and have lost only 2 games so far on the road in the PO. Im not sure why you should be confident the tide will turn against the Suns on the road. I understand why you would hope that is the case, however.

The thing about this is that there are two sides to the coin which you're clearly ignoring. There are literally two teams playing, not just Phoenix. Milwaukee is 7-1 at home, and the numbers of decades of playoff basketball indicate that the home team comes away with 65% of victories on your home court. Like I said, it remains ridiculous that you're trying to deny that home court is an advantage for Milwaukee.

They probably wont stay that hot but they dont have to. Why does everyone assume the Bucks will do exactly what they did in Game 2? Giannis might not have another game like that.
Great thing about this Suns team is they just find ways to win. If a game is ugly, they play a little less ugly than the other team. If a game is a shootout, they shoot a little better than the other team.
Things can change on a dime of course, but so far they've done whatever they've had to to get the job done.

The Suns shot at record breaking three pointers rate. Yea Gianis might not have as good of a game, but you’d think that perhaps Middleton and Holiday will play a bit better at home? And maybe the ima role players won’t shoot as well on the road?
These are just my own potential predictions, anything can happen of course. I think this will be a long series and that bucks still have a decent chance.

I agree with you. The series is far from over. Not claiming victory by any stretch.
You have to understand though that opposing fans have been using your logic throughout the Suns playoff run and it hasnt worked out for them. Everyone keeps waiting for the Suns to fall back into the "not ready to win a title yet" team that seems to make more sense for fans. But hasn't happened.

That’s fair. So what is your prediction on the outcome here in finals? I’m taking bucks in 7 lol
