2021 NBA Finals: Milwaukee Bucks vs Phoenix Suns BUCKS WIN THE TITLE!!!!

[adambr2]

We're going to need to steal just about every close game in this series to have much of a chance. Not playing all that poorly and still down 7.

 

Possibly overreacting but I get it.

 

I'm on my 4th mixer so you're going to see a lot worse overreactions by the end of the night than this.

They'll all be close, just need to "steal" 4 of 7.

[DuWayne Steurer]

It's the 2nd quarter and we're only down 7. We have a run or two left in us yet.

If giannis proves relatively healthy, we stack up with this team just fine. Right now they keep forcing switches and getting Lopez 1 on 1 with booker and Paul. We need to figure something out for that. The shots they are making aren't open and easy shots but if they keep falling we need to adapt...

They won't all be close. That would be quite an anomaly.

[GAME05]

They haven't seen full-force Middleton yet! Hopefully we will, too.

[DuWayne Steurer]

See, here's one of those runs right now.

[PeaveyFury]

Annnnnnd tied.

[DuWayne Steurer]

So... that's a foul on Booker but not Middleton? Midds needs to sell the contact better.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

I think this is good, but we are down 3 and it feels like 17.

[KeithStone53151]

I get a little sad every time I see a hint of soccer flopping in basketball games. Its been better ever since we weren't playing the nets anymore but seen a few already this game

[FVBrewerFan]

Giannis not bringing the ball up, great. Backing down into the left block the same way every single play almost as bad. Move the ball, mix it up.

I can't wait til next year when these guys going up and kicking defenders and trying to draw fouls get called for offensive fouls. What will James Harden's skill set actually be then?

[adambr2]

2 for 4 from the line for us, 12 for 12 for Phoenix. That's the difference.

[adambr2]

I feel ok about the way we've played tonight and worse than when the game started about our chances of winning the series.

[DuWayne Steurer]

2 for 4 from the line for us, 12 for 12 for Phoenix. That's the difference.

 

That's gonna be tough to overcome.

 

Can't keep losing each quarter by 4.

[owbc]

Could have been worse. Need more from Holiday.

[SeaBass]

Sometimes I wonder how this team ever wins.

[GAME05]

So far better than we usually play in Game 1.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

They're down 8 on the road in Game 1. It's fine. They will have bad and good games in this series, hopefully one more good than bad.

[FVBrewerFan]

You just can't keep switching Lopez on their guards, just horrible basic basketball strategy.

[KeithStone53151]

The biggest issue I see, we need to find a way to stop then from switching to get Lopez on Paul or booker with 12+ seconds left on the shot clock. Even if it means Lopez plays less. Literally their entire offense is running through that strategy right now.

[GAME05]

The Bucks certainly aren't putting Lopez on them on purpose. Phoenix is one of the heaviest switching teams in the League. Lopez has been doing fairly well at it so far.

[GAME05]

Wonder if we'll see Portia sub in for Lopez sometimes. Could still play the 5 but a quicker player.

[adambr2]

They're down 8 on the road in Game 1. It's fine. They will have bad and good games in this series, hopefully one more good than bad.

 

They're not having a bad game, that's the problem. They're just not as good.
