2021 NBA Finals: Phoenix Suns vs Milwaukee Bucks

pacers aaaalmost made the playoffs with half a roster, jrue-donte-kris-bobby-brook would be fine

lmao why is the deer district a rave

suns offense breaking down

late stage capitalist rust belt postneoliberal despair babyyyyy

xp

Lol knew Portis was gonna get T’d up at some point

Spottie called it

giannis having a monster series

yeah we are now back in "what can you possibly do to stop giannis" territory

Shaq in 2000
LeBron in 2016
Giannis in 2021.

That's it. That's the list of back-to-back 40-point games in the NBA Finals ever. 🔥 pic.twitter.com/B0GyFZaWFQ

This might be the single best game I’ve seen him play. He’s cleaned up so many mistakes

it's been a masterpiece

Like seriously both teams are shooting roughly the same percentage this entire lead is him grabbing rebounds and forcing fouls

why are jrue and middleton still out there

punishment

why are jrue and middleton still out there

no coach wants to pull starters and then be forced to put them back in a must-win nba finals game. they're insurance against any possible comeback.

Holiday shot over 50% and had he not gotten hot in the 3rd the Suns might've tied it up. they finally got what they paid for in this series

Giannis now has more 40-point Finals games than Kobe

just making history out there

Giannis and Thanasis Antetokounmpo combined for 41 points in Game 3, the most by a pair of brothers in NBA Finals history.

lol

if giannis had played like this every game...hitting free throws and looking to pass makes him unstoppable

also rolling/relocating after the pass

Bucks by 20

"Shaq in 2000

Uhhhhh. MJ had 4 games of 40+ in a row in '93 Finals

1) where was bridges
2) suns might've been better served if booker just stayed at the hotel in an ice bath
3) kaminsky is so glaringly worse than everyone else on the court, it's a little embarrassing
4) hard to imagine that giannis can play at this level for another 3 to 5 games and hard to imagine the bucks winning this season if he doesn't.

that's right, it's an eight game series; i said it

if it ends up 4-4 everyone just shakes hands and goes home

the always awkward "i thought we won" game 8

this sounds like an I Think You Should Leave s3 sketch idea

Ayton racking up fouls early changed the entire game; it forced the Suns to go small which actually worked pretty well offensively for a while, but it also meant Giannis could grab unlimited rebounds and had to be fouled in the paint every time. Like yeah he played awesome but he was also up against dudes who were like 6 inches shorter and 50 pounds lighter than him. Kaminsky had to go in just to give them some size which made things even worse.

Feel like the Bucks can still win even if Giannis doesn't go supernova every game - Middleton usually takes over one game a series and the Suns can go cold from 3. Wouldn't bet on it but this was exactly the sort of victory they needed. Suns actually shot a higher percentage than Milwaukee, Bucks were just grabbing a ton of rebounds & getting fouled

when giannis makes his rebounds and is playing that aggressively, he's basically unstoppable
i continue to wonder how long he can play at this level without aggravating his knee tho
wonder why he asked out in the first quarter for a breather, that was odd

Uhhhhh. MJ had 4 games of 40+ in a row in '93 Finals

the graphic said 40-10 but then the tweet just said 40, prob why they deleted it

Ah gotcha

Giannis is the most specifically effective superstar we’ve had in a long time. Some people compare him to shaq but Shaq was such a diverse post scorer relatively. In a weird way he reminds me of David Robinson.
