Kip Smithers Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 CP3 showing why handchecking is perhaps the most overrated and overstated rule change ever lol. Jrue is pressuring CP3 on the ball and all CP needs to do is call for a screen and he’s free. Pick and roll or a simple solid screen negates all that **** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucks went 16/36 from 3's, Suns were really bad from 3's at 11/34. It's hard to think that's going to continue. 2. For the Suns, Crowder went 0/8, and killed the Suns chance at the Finals for a record at 100% FT (OK, not a killer). Bridges played well (even with Giannis on him, the over prop won yay). But no one was on fire for PHX from their supporting cast - the 3 dominant guys were CP3, Booker & Ayton. Everyone else was an afterthought. 3. On the Bucks side, Middleton adjusted, and Giannis played well at the 5 (albeit limited), and Lopez did OK on O (but D was another story). The role players outside of the big 3 did well, they were 18/37 overall. Jrue was the one guy who struggled hard - but that was that length that the PHX team can play. 4. Everyone knew the PHX O plans - and the Bucks' D had no answers. If there wasn't that 3-pt edge, this would have been a blowout sooner. Now, I know the Suns went 25/26 from the FT line - but being a 87% FT team, that's more than offset by losing the 3-pt edge tonight. When you look at this game, MIL had no answers except Giannis at the 5 - and still couldn't really solve the depth & speed the Suns have on O with Ayton inside. On D, the PHX length gave MIL fits. It's only 1 game, and as usual, teams aren't in panic mode until they drop a home game - but the problem is that all the mismatches that PHX O had on MIL played out, and Ayton's interior dominance on D, and the Suns' length on the perimeter was more problematic than the Bucks would have hoped went down. Now, things can change - but now you have to hope Bud can make those changes. And THAT is where it's hard to feel good about MIL's chances - and that's before we see how Giannis' knee feels after playing tonight. At least he avoided serious re-injury today (such a freak).

DirtyDez Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Crowder leading the game in +/- shows how misleading that stat can be. If he falls down on one more 3 Monty needs to pull him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Suns really got the Lakers while LeBron/AD both injured, Nuggets while Murray/Barton injured, Clippers while Kawhi/Ibaka injured, and now the Bucks while Giannis/Divencio injured. Their chakra's aligned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bucks barely beat the KD and nobody else Nets and the Hawks gave them a fight. The Clippers sorta gave the Suns a fight but the Suns swept the Nuggets and dominated the Lakers. I agree both teams had breaks but the Bucks even with their breaks was a KD toe on the line away from still losing. The Suns wasn’t truly threatened at any point in these playoffs. They are the better team and they showed it once again tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl4life07 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I was shocked Giannis played tonight because I thought he would at least miss some games in the series if not the entire rest of the playoffs. His injury looked that bad. So kudos to him for playing. In the end it doesn’t matter. CP3 and Booker is playing at an elite level right now and Ayton is having his breakout in the postseason. We all are rightfully so gushing over Young and Doncic in that same draft. We think MPJ could be the steal because he fell but Ayton is proving to not forget about him. The Suns are a complete team in general with a great coach and a great homecourt advantage. They should win this series in at no worst than 6. I’m still sticking with them winning in 5. CP3 will win Finals MVP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
