GAME DAY, NBA FINALS EDITION — GAME 5 — MILWAUKEE BUCKS @ PHOENIX SUNS SATURDAY, 7/17/2021

[BlaCkAdDa]

Gotta defend these corner three’s

[phatmike]

Just a couple stops guys!!!!

[BlaCkAdDa]

Flop of the series

[virtual9mm]

If the Suns lose the game and the series, there really is no other answer except that the Bucks were better.

[3rdside]

CP3 awful in that little period …

[ShelC]

It's really disappointing we get to this point in the season and then just go away from our offense.

[phatmike]

Ahhh. This is why I built that wall of stone around my heart back in the 90s. Added a few rows to it back in the 2000's. Time to rebuild it even higher and thicker.

[3rdside]

Yeah this ones over, I’m calling game and series .. they’re eye of tiger

[Flagrant Fowl]

Game 4 wasn't an anomaly for Paul. He's bad offensively and getting hunted on defense.

This series is over when he's being played off the floor.

[ShelC]

Paul's hurt for sure.

Book's ISO's are killing us.

[3rdside]

They’ve worked us out - stop Paul and you get double your money because you stop ayton as well

[Flagrant Fowl]

It was a fun season and I'm happy with their accomplishments.

They just got beat by the better team with the best player.

Kind of how I'm feeling right now

[Mori Chu]

Oof. Bucks shooting an unreal 62% so far and 52% on 3s. How do you win when your opponent does that? And our offense seems to have devolved into Book and CP3 and Payne trying to go 1 on 5. Blech.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Paul's hurt for sure.

Book's ISO's are killing us.

Conversely, his ISO's are the reason the deficit is only 10 points at the end of the 3rd.

[3rdside]

Deandre is entirely awol

[3rdside]

We just can’t compete with their size .. biggest fear realised

[virtual9mm]

The key to the series is that they've managed to take away the key to the Suns' playoffs success -- the CP3-Ayton PnR.

[3rdside]

Who would’ve thought Saric would be such a big loss (I guess a few did, as it’s the big af bucks)

[virtual9mm]

Edit -- the team still has 8 minutes left. Let's see what they're really made of.
