Series Thread: 2021 NBA Finals: Milwaukee Bucks vs. Phoenix Suns

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

After 4 games, both teams held serve on their home court.
Now it's just down to a best of 3...and it begins in the desert on Saturday.
Gonna be fun.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Cp3 didnt bother showing up tonight.

He was there briefly, and actually played well when Booker sat with foul trouble..but then he pretty much vanished after that.
And except for his work on the glass (17 reb)....Ayton was neutralized, and ineffective too.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

That block by Giannis was huge!

It was indeed.

 

[wildturkey]

Only thing worse on the court tonight than Chris Paul was the refs. That crew is straight garbage. They were dogshit even before the ridiculous no call on Booker's 6th foul.

But back to Paul, yeah, you were trash bro. Looking like the CP3 we're use to seeing in the playoffs is beginning to make a comeback

Told ya'll. Even matchup.

Nah, he's playing so...

And now back to Phoenix, where magically the Suns will play better and the Bucks worse

 

[HurricaneDij39]

Booker was actually going for a jump ball on the play on Holiday where he should have been called for his sixth foul…

 

[DJ Fieri]

Middleton with 40 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 assists.....but he's "inconsistent."

LOL,

Yep...but we shall see how these last few games play out.
Both teams each won their previous series' in 6 games to win their conference titles...and both clinched it on the road.
(Suns @ Clippers...Bucks @ Hawks) None of those games went into OT...just as the 1st 4 games of these finals haven't.

I say we're overdue for an OT thriller....either on Saturday in Phoenix, or next Tuesday back in Milwaukee.
And if by by chance we're lucky enough to get a game 7...and there still hasn't been a game that's gone into OT...then I also say, bring it on...and let the chips fall where they may.

Speaking strictly as an NBA fan...nothing would be better for it to happen in a game 7 for all the marbles.

There was also a blatant inbounds violation by Giannis in the final minute, which was somehow missed by all 3 refs.

But I digress.......

 

[tlance]

When do Rachel and Maria make out??

Guess you missed the news?

They don’t exactly like each other, so doubt that is going to happen.

LOL,

He is inconsistent.

In this year’s playoffs he has had 4 games of 35 plus and 4 games of 15 or less.

That is pretty much the definition of inconsistent.

He is a very good player, but still a support player because you don’t really know which Middleton is going to show up on the offensive end each night.

Yep. Dude been on this crap for a month now and nothing in that month is showing me about what i said about Middleton being inconsistent was incorrect. He's been super inconsistent. When i can predict his big games then that's a problem.

Was so sure of him playing well tonight that i locked him in for 30 points on fanduel.

well....he was clutch last night in a game they had to win. Being down 3-1 they would be toast.

He came through big time last night and they evened the series.....LOL.

How does that make him consistent?

 

[bksballer89]

I think the proof is in the pudding. DJ just doesn't know the definition of inconsistent

 

[bksballer89]

Stephen A saying what the world know about Middleton. All the skills in the world but consistency is the only issue.

If he was consistent, he is a top 20 player in the league

 

[tlance]

Yes.

He came through huge last night.

He also has no showed in a couple big spots this postseason too.

Because he is inconsistent.

1 huge game doesn’t prove consistency. If anything it proves the opposite.

 

[Sparhawk]

FIBA refs is so much better than these guys

I think I actually prefer the international games more than the NBA games......
