They tortured Lopez all night.
But they still need adjustments when they force the Bucks to go small,
Probably by letting Ayton abuse someone when they force a switch in a pick & roll.

Also, the Bucks offense is just damn predictable.
Even if Giannis(who is 50%) is on the floor.
^^Mike Budenholzer should do something about that.

Paul got into a rhythm exploiting the defense in the 3rd. Game got out of control there.
This game was eerily similar to the ECF game 1 vs the Hawks.

Giannis only scored 20 points he moves well enough but surely he is not 100% and is taking a lot of painkillers i bet

Chris Paul is taking over to take his first ring

Suns just have better clutch shooters, holy shit. Bucks' runs just couldn't get under 5 because of a timely 3...

Seriously maddening watching Giannis get no help from his guards on offense.

The treys killed em even if it means that they defended the pick & roll.
Also i really dont understand y they put teague when they can just put bryn forbes when either Middleton/Giannis/Jrue is on the floor.
Also Jrue & Middleton were shit so theres that.

Late but congrats to the Bucks for making it to the Finals.


With that said, is it just me or is it rare to see a good all around offensive performance from the Bucks' "big 3"? They scored 70 total with Antetokounmpo scoring 42 of it. In total they probably need to average 80 to give themselves a chance if no one else steps up.


2 more to go Phoenix. Chris Paul is still ahead for FMVP, IMO but it's close.

Middleton is inconsistent as fuck i do not know how well his consistency is but from the few games ive seen him in this playoffs he needs to score at least 25+ points per game if the Bucks wants to win

at least Giannis plays normal now 40+ points from him today

The Bucks are just too inconsistent for me to see them coming back from 0-2. Suns are overall better than that Nets team they beat with just Durant.

all starters are resting now, Giannis with the big game again and he shot 80% plus on the free throw line too lol its his day

all the Bucks starters are in double figures so Giannis got a lot of help too

Devin Booker fails to produce this game thats why the Suns are missing a lot of firepower

Bucks attacking the rim leads to good things. Giannis was great again.

Way better team defense and didnt give up a million threes led to prolonged runs on the offensive side.

HUUUUUUGE win by the Bucks.

It's now a best of 3 and I'm starting to believe either team can now win.

I'm just very happy Giannis got to play after that scary injury against the Hawks because otherwise this series would've been over TONIGHT!

Now we will see which team WANTS IT MORE...who is willing to go the extra mile, to leave everything on the floor.

Good luck to both teams....I'm ok with either one winning, they are both deserving!

Lol it's ok, these playoffs have been so unpredictable, which is great to see after we've been so used to predictable playoffs in the Warriors vs Cavs era. So many road wins in these playoffs, wouldn't be surprising if Suns do make the comeback and win the series. And of course both number 1 seeds not making conference finals first time since 94, who'dve thunk that

GRATS to the Bucks!

An amazing run for them, and a team very deserving of this championship!

@baboon enjoy this night to the fullest my man!

And do not take it for granted, as a Heat fan I didn’t take any of our Championships for granted and I still have very good memories.

I’m happy for you and your team!


Feels bad for CP3 tho…but it just goes to show how difficult winning a Championship is!

It’s the pinnacle of sports and very difficult to do.

Nets/Bucks - These to me are the two best teams left right now. Taking Bucks in an upset.

Squirtroll said:
Suns vs Bucks - Suns in 7. If Giannis is back the whole series and isn't limited by his injury, I'd take the Bucks in 7.

Gotta say, although I like the Suns and believed in them from the beginning, they've been really lucky. I think they would've lost to the Lakers with a healthy Bron and AD, Nuggets with Murray, and Clippers with Kawhi.


This should solidify Giannis' greatness. Still can't believe he only missed 2 games with that injury and played the entire Finals without missing a beat. Giannis is really a freak.

1. Cade, 2. Green, 3. Mobley.

Lets be honest, nobody expected the Suns to make it up to this point at the start of the season, let alone at the start of the playoffs despite battling against injured teams.

I was really rooting for the Suns SO MUCH, but seeing that epic and chaotic Game 6...damn I'm gonna give it to the Bucks, and especially for Giannis. 50 PTS to secure the trophy, only legends have done that kind of feat, and now I'm convinced.

Congratulations, Milwaukee. Who knows if the Suns can recover from this, because history tells that some teams never did. And once the injured superstars recover for the next season, it'll only get tough for the Valley, but for the Bucks atleast they have something going for them from now on (hopefully I didn't jinxed it).

Whaddya think about this 2021 Finals?

Suns honestly missed a golden opportunity to win a Championship that quite frankly they MAY NOT have again.

Sure, they have have a solid team, but a lot of what it takes to win a Championship is Skill AND Luck.

Suns had both skills and Luck throughout this playoff run up until just recently.

It’s crazy to think they were up 2-0 in this series…they BLEW IT!

They should’ve probably won game 4, again, they BLEW IT!

This is going to hurt for a loooong time trust me.

If I were them I’d DEFINITELY sign CP3 for one more year…but that doesn’t mean he’s going to have the amazing season he had this year.

Dude will be going into his 17th season next year…and his name is NOT Lebron.

And let’s not forget that the Suns play in the West…which is still absolutely LOADED!

I know a thing or two about missed opportunities…I believe the Heat absolutely missed their one shot to steal a Title last year, because unless we get a big time player or something miraculous happens…we are NOT a contender.

Anyways…I know how Suns fans are feeling tonight, it’s a very frustrating and horrible feeling.

To come THIS close and come up empty handed.

It’s the main reason why nothing beats winning a major Championship as a fan.

It’s so difficult to do!

Lets be honest, nobody expected the Suns to make it up to this point at the start of the season, let alone at the start of the playoffs despite battling against injured teams.

They're going to re-sign CP3 for less but more years. They'll also re-sign Mikal for a lot.

At the start of the season, yeah. Midway through the season, I thought they were a darkhorse in the West. In the playoffs, I had them making the Finals.

First Round Predictions:
Suns/Lakers - With Lebron not 100%, I'll take the Suns in 7. People are going to know Mikal and Cam after this series.

Suns/Denver - Suns. Jokic is bbq chicken defending the pnr.

Squirtroll said:
Suns vs Clippers - Suns in 6. IF some miracle Kawhi comes back and isn't a shadow of his former self ala Harden, I'm going with the Clippers.
