2021 NBA Finals: Phoenix Suns vs Milwaukee Bucks

crowder and payne are very floppy xp

What the hell

woooah big 3

forgot what a close game was like, thrilling!

cp3 killed the suns down the stretch

chris paul just straight falling down at the most critical possession of a massive finals game is, like.......................

yeah cp3 has been pretty awful this half

looks like his whole body has run out of spring

his offensive possessions have gone turnover, hopeless layup attempt, turnover. he sucked in the same situations in game 2 and no one talked about it

booker whining to the refs my god dude

amazing play

Chris Paul's 15 turnovers over the last three games are his most in a three-game stretch in the playoffs since 2012.

I am very excited right now.

haha man this mke crowd is off the hook

They have not shown a replay of the play of the game

say more, matt

man wisconsin is ready to burn itself down already that rules

ty espn

Refs ignore blatant Booker foul, Giannis gets the bucket as Bucks even series

we got a series baby

Giannis really hitting that Lebron level right now, it’s so much fun to see

t/s: giannis's block of ayton vs lebron's block of iguodala

Two games away from Budenholzer cementing his place in the hall of fame

I'm worried this is like 06 when DWade turned into the world's greatest player after going down 0-2

Giannis Antetokounmpo said he checked out early of both Games 3 and 4 to take a “tinkle.” He wanted to make sure that was a polite way to say it.

They never showed the block again during the broadcast did they?

They did not. I was yelling at the TV ... "why are they not showing us the block?!"

Someone on Twitter guessed that they were saving replays for the post-game interview. I don't buy that, really? But they did show two angles while interviewing Middleton.

also, I liked Bam's block on Tatum better than Giannis's's's block even though the latter was a more impressive defensive play.

still taking LeBron vs. Iggy over both of 'em, though.

It's pretty weird how poorly CP3 has been playing. Looks out of control and flummoxed ie the exact opposite of his usual MO

lebron’s block was essentially a championship-winning play. giannis’s was more athletic, but not really by much

It was total pandemonium at the bar I was at, pretty much the exact moment where everyone realized they could actually win despite being behind the entire game

Was actually planning to be in the Deer District but I cancelled bc it was supposed to rain. Damn!!!

have u been to the deer district yet, we need some first hand reportage

CP's worst game came at an awful bad time but I'm inclined to think he rebounds

hes having a tough time with the bucks D particularly jrue picking him up early, i think hes just getting beat up and worn down, suns should prob do something to get him off the ball more

yeah, he hasn't had to deal with this much pressure defense in some time i'm guessing. more of those late game possessions need to go through booker.

Yeah I went there twice these playoffs it’s amazing but you gotta pregame and hope you don’t have to tinkle too often. Also I lost my voice by the 3rd both times

The only downside of The Block is I feel like it took post-game coverage away from how great Middleton was (and how much the Bucks need Middleton to be great if they're gonna win this series)

Was shocked to see Middleton wind up with 40. It’s crazy how he seems to have the same game every time, ice cold in the first half then suddenly he hits like 6 in a row in the second then disappears again. Idk i guess it works for them

They need Holiday to have an average game offensively, he’s missing like 3 layups a game bc he just can’t get the roll and he’s not hitting threes either. Bucks seem to dominate every time he gets around 50%

suns offense was so iso heavy in game 4, totally relying on Book to hit covered jumpers

mamba mentality B-)

that field goal percentage is hilarious really

gotta go 7 for 19 in game 7s baby

muse cage, dark musings, mamba mentality

his make or miss pctg on his catchphrases was way better

New feature: I talked to people around Phoenix about the growing connection between the city’s large Latino community and Devin Booker, who has leaned into his heritage https://t.co/TB9KCdipC1
