Good call! Pretty tough game last night!

It was a wrestling match for sure, and now the Bucks have caught Phoenix nicely.

Booker's 42 points were also not enough for the Suns to win.

I look forward to continuing! :)

I was right to say that the result would be 2-2. Now I expect an even match. In my opinion, the Phoenix Suns will win the championship, but maybe only after 7 matches.

Agreed, I just feel like its Suns championship to lose. They seem like the better overall team. Giannis have been playing phenomenal but tomorrow game 5 in Phoenix and I believe the Suns will take it. Then they will take that momentum back in game 6 or 7 to win it all. It all depends on Chris Paul though. He will be the key to them losing or winning the title.

Suns will take it in 6 guys. Giannis is carrying the bucks, but one man can't take them all the way. He will run out of gas for sure.

Milwaukee Bucks Champion

In this final I hope the Milwaukee Bucks will be champion, although Chris Paul also deserves that title

A very good 5th game and also very lumpy. The lead changed frequently and Bucks deserved to be won. Phoenix played a good game, but they missed something. Still, I believe in the championship for the Suns.

Yeah that was a good game but the Suns gonna have to step it up. I really thought they was gonna win game 5 especially after that 16 point lead in the first quarter. I dont know what it is but Chris Paul just doesnt seem like him self. He is getting outplayed and outhustled by Jrue Holiday. Like I said in my previous statement, he will be the key if they lose or win the title. Because not only is he the Veteran but he is the true playmaker to get everyone involved and they feed off of him. Booker is gonna get his regardless. I still believe in the Suns as well but the Bucks are not playing around and game 6 is gonna be interesting!

The Bucks have won a serious win and taken a big step towards the league title, the pressure is now on the Suns, but I think it will be a seven-match final and both teams have a good chance of winning the title.

I look forward to continuing.:)

After the 1st quarter, it looked like it was over but a nice comeback. Jrue played amazing in the 2nd and Khris was big in the 2nd half. Giannis has been great the whole series offensively and defensively.

Giannis even started to hit his free throws. That alone wins games.

Tip for match 6:

Milwaukee - Phoenix (6m.) (Over 220.5 (Score 220.5) 1.67)

Match 7 is a chance but the Suns have to make it big today.

Then you have the NBA champion.
Down with the hat in front of both teams, they played a memorable final.
Giannis' 50 points were magical. :five:
I look forward to next season to see if there will be title defense. :D
However, I also make tips for pre-season matches. ;)

Giannis 50 point game was legendary. He truly deserved unanimous FMVP.
I think that they will keep being contender next season alongside GSW/NETS.
Depends on the offseason movements. Especially with rumours that Dame might go to GSW :D

Hitting those free throws made the difference.

Milwaukee Bucks deserved to win. It was a great game, Phoenix had little chance in the second half. Unfortunately, in my opinion, Booker failed at decisive moments. They took him out of the game very well.

What a game. We might have witnessed Giannis's first step to becoming an all time great. Very impressive showing, especially those FT numbers.

Booker had some good games early on but Bucks must have figured him out. I'm sure he has a very bright future though this series was tough.

You're right, Phoenix didn't play badly in games 5 and 6, but they missed something. Booker learned a lot in this year's playoffs. I only feel sorry for Chris Paul. He was great at leading the team, but they didn't manage to win.

Incredible game from Giannis. 50 points and was making almost all his free throws. He deserves to win. Had a great series.

I was very pleased with this final. Two great teams met. The Greek was definitely decisive, but the rest of the team didn't disappoint either. I'm waiting for what the Golden State Warriors will do. I am also hoping for another good season for Phoenix.
