OT: 2021 NBA Playoffs

Thats great use of Giannis minutes right there putting him back in once CP3 and Booker are on the bench, with the Suns on the ropes taking it to them. Moment just seems to big for Booker and Ayton Im just go ahead and say Budenholzer isnt the worst playoff coach of all time.

The Bucks should be up 20 points right now. They are taking terrible shots, and most of their points are coming from transition or put backs.

I guess I spoke too soon lol.
 
I am not typically a big Cam Payne fan, but he is playing out of his mind to get Phoenix any points.

The Bucks continue to piss away one possession after another.

This M. Night Shyalaman movie that ABC has been pummeling us with throughout the finals looks terrible.
 
Bucks 5/27 outside the paint in the first half. Also 10 turnovers.

34.9% overall from the field, in a large part because they are taking terrible shots.
 
You gotta question stuffing 65,000 people around an 18,000 seat arena. If it had to be evacuated, what’s the plan?
 
Giannis is trying to win this game by himself now. Given Budenholzer's terrible coaching, that is not a bad idea.

Lopez would have amazing stats this series if he didn't take so many 3's.

Cam Johnson is not even on the court. I don't get it.

He'd have to play over Crowder or Bridges, both of whom do a lot of good things, especially on D (causing a lot of said Bucks tough shots in 1st half).

Johnson is not a bad defender, is quicker than Crowder and is a scorer from 3 point range to the hoop. Phoenix also can't play Bridges and Crowder 40 minutes each. Mix it up a little, see who is hot that night.
 
Budenholzer is just a freaking awful big game coach. He should have sat Giannis around the 2 minute mark to get him fresh for the fourth quarter. Instead, a gassed Giannis is ineffective and is now exhausted.

There is still no coherent offense by the Bucks. Either they try a contested pull up or make a wild drive to the basket. There is no ball movement. Giannis is playing hero ball, and Lopez is cleaning up some bad shots on the boards. That is the offense.

Suns are getting a lot of calls tonight. Crowder turned the ball over there. Crowder also grabbed the net that should have been a goaltending in the first half.
 
Booker makes some of the toughest shots I have seen any NBA player make.
 
Giannis is completely gassed with 4:50 left. Maybe sitting him with 2 minutes left in the 3rd, together with the quarter break, plus 3 minutes in the 4th, would have been a good spot to rest Giannis.

Giannis was fantastic and made the winning plays down the stretch of games 4 & 5 and then for all of game 6. MVP
 
Not much of an NBA fan but this is pretty cool as i know 3 of the Bucks owners really well.
