2021 NBA Finals: Phoenix Suns vs Milwaukee Bucks

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.

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

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

did not know book was mexican

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

yeah i had no idea. cool story that hopefully adds a whole new generation of suns fans.

and i hope they're all really excited when the suns beat the nets in 2022 for their first-ever title

hard to believe this is gonna be over soon, given the amount of stuff that's gone on in my life since everyone got vaccinated it feels like Round 1 was 7 months ago

four best-of-7 series is too much playoffs, that's hard to deny

and devin booker, kris middleton and jrue will need to save team USA like 3 days after this series inevitably goes 7 games

they should go back to bo5 for the first round

why are there two off days between all these games

apparently the MLB all-star game disrupted their normal schedule

(seriously, they didn't want to go against the all-star game)

it fucked me over b/c I told my Mom I could get her from the airport on Wednesday since I was sure G4 would be on Tuesday. wound up having to listen in the radio, Mom was telling me about her trip (like the actual plane ride, mostly) while I just kept hearing "Booker hits it again!" on the radio. dropped her off, ran as fast as possible to a bar across the street, Suns were up 5 w/ like 3:30 to go and you know the rest

your ass better be in that same bar tomorrow night

lol

i'm wearing the same bucks shirt i wore for g3 and g4 (but not for g1 and g2), all citizens of deer nation must do their part

My lucky deer shirt worked it’s magic during all 3 closeout games, sorry I can’t wear it yet

phone alert said "Antetokounmpo out for game 5, in health and safety protocols" and i was like HOLY NO but thanasis, someone might want to tell the headline copy guy about context

but *it's* thanasis

all the players in the finals getting covid is the only appropriate way for this season to end

Lmao the entirety of Bucks Twitter all freaked out about that

lol, wow

Excited for this NBA action

hard to believe there’s not something wrong with chris — he’s had more turnovers and deflections in the past few games than is ever usual for him

The embargo has existed for a very long time and doesn’t explain the hyperinflation problem Cuba is facing at the moment.

Haha wrong thread, allez Giannis!

love to see a lot of energy this far into things

Suns seem to know every bucks play

both of them

Suns shooting 85%

well that's going to fire up the home crowd

not sure what giannis was doing there exactly

you just don't see first quarter frustration fouls every day

you can't go up in the air anymore and prevent a guy from dunking. it's too dangerous.

this guy counting hundreds........................................

pure dirtbag energy

Suns D have us completely solved
