If he played better offensively by making open shots and hitting some of those layups I think the bucks win because they would have played with a lead making it tougher for the sun's. But I'm glad he came up clutch with other little things. Really hoping he can get it going offensively. He's so good on D just inconsistent on O
2:31 Giannis having that presence of mind to give the ball to Middleton (who is a much better FT shooter) after securing the rebound is low key clutch.
@@mramazing2539 suns were gonna foul 95% so it's the presence of mind of giannis to give the ball to middleton immediately as he is a better ft shooter
Khris 40 was just as amazing as Giannis 41, but Giannis with the block and follow up shot when Jrue missed bcuz he got fouled... Giannis NEVER gives up on the play. He didn't have a huge offensive night but he had just an amazing night as Khris and Booker
Agreed i don’t expect anything more on giannis he needs to keep doing what he’s been doing, that’s what’s his size,power and reflexes are for. My only worries is Middleton and jrue giving me a heart attack on some nights
@@aydinvirani1528 that dude is the definition of prisoner of the moment. We can’t just ignore that Middleton is waaaay bipolar and plays especially poor on visits.
I’ll keep disrespecting him as long as he: 1. Continues to offensively foul because he knows he won’t get called for it. 2. Sucks at free throw shooting 3. Can’t jump that high considering how athletic he is 4. Can’t make a proper turn around 5. Can’t make a proper hook shot 6. Can’t make a proper mid-range shot
giannis can’t shoot, has no skill, and is just big/dunks a lot. Harden said so himself. Someone with incredible skill called out giannis for not having skill.
The difference between winning the game to tie the series and losing the game to go 3-1 down is immeasurable. It completely shifts the series from even to a suns win. That block from Giannis may be the reason the bucks go all the way.
well you gotta admit he can’t shoot for crap compared to the league’s average even. He’s just hard to stop, and his plays require less skill than shooting guards/dribblers. Undeniably. BUT, I’d take him first team all NBA, MAYBE, prolly go kawhi, lebron, kyrie, curry, Luka. Giannis just can not shoot to save his life.
Man I liked this dude a lot but he act like a btch tries to take fouls and because refs let’s the game be played with the right way he cries meanwhile he has 100 fouls not called 😂😂😂
Damn CP played scared tonight. Credit to Jrue for puttin’ the clamps down. Booker was on 🔥 although the refs swallowed their whistles n missed a couple calls that should’ve gave Booker his 6th. Giannis made all the right plays down the stretch on offense/defense. Bucks in 6 .. carry on
@@Blank-ez7zo Booker at about 3:40 (game time) wrapped Jrue up on a breakaway drive, the announces say's on air "foul on Booker, wait they didn't call it." Would have been his 6th and him out of the game.
At first I wanted Chris Paul to get the ring, but now with that ref stuff and flopping and considering the heart and effort of the Bucks I want Giannis to win, they giving it all
I know middleton did great, but that block from Giannis really took the wind out of phoenix and shifted all the momentum to the Bucks. I think if they make that, the confidence for the Bucks kinda go downhill from there. I think Giannis made some really key defensive plays in this game even though he didn't score a ot.
I believe this was the game where Suns were up 7 with a little over 5 minutes left and Giannis got a steal off an inbound pass and made it a 5pt game and gave us the momentum. If Suns got the pass off and hit a shot to go up 9-10 instead of only being up 5 they maybe leave game 4 up 3-1 and history is maybe changed. Then ofc the block on Ayton, and then very next possession a steal on CP3 which led to a 2 possession lead was the chefs kiss. Those type of plays are exactly why Giannis has been the best player in the NBA the last 2 years. He's a dominant scorer, and has been a top 3-5 scorer the past 4 seasons, no one hustles for offensive rebounds like him and creates points where there shouldn't be any, he's a terrific passer who's averaged 6APG in the regular season last 4 years, and averages 7.3APG in the last 2 playoff runs, and of course the defense. He can be an elite rim protector, he can play defense on the perimeter against anyone, and he just has absurd basketball instinct. There was literally a 0.5 second window to pass the ball to Khris so he can take the icing FTs instead of himself and he got the pass off under all that pressure. The scariest part is he finally has a reliable mid range game too. 2022-2023 Giannis is about to be way better than he already was

Amount of attempts is only part of ref manipulation. When and who fouls are called is more important. Since you know basketball (casual) answer me and tell me why when and who fouls are called are more important.
@@interceptingfist5682 I've got some "facts" for you! In game 1 the Suns shot more Free Throws than the Bucks. In fact, the Free throw totals were 23 to 6 in favor of the Suns late in game 1. The refs, like I knew they would, called a few meaningless Free Throws for the Bucks late after the game was out of reach. Still the Suns ended up with more total Free Throws in Game 1 "FACT"!!!!!. However, focusing on "the number of free throws each team gets" as a measure of how fairly the game has been called is a mistake. I could go into all the reasons why one team might have more fouls called for it than another, but in this case I don't have to! In this case it's so blatantly obvious why the Bucks would get more fouls called than the Suns. The Suns are intentionally fouling Giannis down low to put him on the Free Throw line to take advantage of his poor Free Throw shooting!! "FACT"
I lost so much respect for this suns team. They are a complete team of whiny little girls who complain about every call. It’s insufferable to watch as a basketball fan. After Booker murders Holiday then Middleton, he has the audacity to complain when Tucker barley rides him to the hoop. The Suns are a disgrace to the game.
Can’t wait until next game when Suns win and Suns fans say “Suns in 6.” Then I can’t wait until Game 6 when Bucks win and Bucks fans say “Bucks in 7.” This series is going to 7 🔥
"Ye of little faith". This series is nowhere near finished. Suns still have home advantage. They just need to win all their home games and they will be champions. CP3 WILL get his ring.
The only way Cp3 will win this series is that he has to turn Ayton into Karl Malone. He is the master of the pick and roll. I see Jeff Hornacek show up ( I mean Devin Booker) and they still lost
Neither of them is my home team but their play has got me on the edge of my seat in my living room. Milwaukee has got a deafening cannon roaring crowd.
Chris “The point god” Paul tore it up tonight 🔥🔥🔥 8 points 🔥🔥 4 rebounds 🤯🤯 4-12 shooting (33%) 😳👑 0-2 from three (0%) 🐐💰 5 Turnovers 💯💯 3 Fouls 🗣🗣 Carried by the Refs 🤩 better than Steph Curry? lmao no way😭😹
The refs should keep this same energy home and away. Loved the physicality! The Bucks had a little luck and talk about that block from Giannis! Yet some media analyst people say he isn't clutch. At least he's consistent.. smh. I said it before and I'll say it again; If either Jrue or Middleton comes up big time in the remaining games the Bucks are stealing this Trophy.... And in 6!
Giannis isn’t the most clutch offensive player, mainly because he isn’t a great jump shooter, but he is still clutch. When you watch clutch baskets, they are usually jumpers or 3s, which is why Middleton takes the clutch shots for the Bucks. Doesn’t mean Giannis isn’t clutch, though. Giannis plays great defense on clutch moments all the time (his block tonight, knocking the ball away from Jimmy Butler in Game 1 against the Heat, etc.) He just doesn’t get credit for it because it isn’t on offense.
Those who keep counting Middleton out haven't been watching these playoffs. Dude will have 1-2 bad playoff games to start the series and then go crazy the rest of the series.
what a block reminds me king James block on Igduadala in 2016 game 7 what's fascinating about the two blocks was they were both game saving and winning plays
The block was easy because the pass was bad (ball was behind the rim), so Ayton had a difficult dunk attempt and that gave Giannis a higher probability of a block.
@@joshkutz982 Look at it again. It was NOT a dunk attempt. He was falling/flying further away (to the left) from the rim, so he was trying to THROW the ball into the basket. His momentum was taking him AWAY from the basket. Watch the replay again. Look where Ayton LANDED. BEHIND the backboard. His head barely missed the bottom of the backboard! It was physically impossible to dunk that ball because of where the ball was caught and his momentum taking him away from the basket.
I love this series of "who wants it more" at the end no 3s, went back to fundamentals & defence. These 2 just defended their court. Next 3 games are even more critical for both teams cuz now they both know what a loss feels like.
This proves that as long as the Bucks have the roster they have now and nobody injuries themselves seriously they can easily win it. They won it with Divencenzo out, and without Giannis for a couple games. Middleton and Holiday handled a couple games themselves, not every single game during these dramatic playoffs, but they have clutch moments. Good players do good things. Unarguably a top NBA team that has what it takes.
4:30 Giannis inbounds while still inbounds himself. Could be called as a turnover. Wilt Chamberlain did the same thing in the iconic Jerry West 3/4 court shot to tie the game.
I think the Suns have to flop because they never get the fouls called their way. Many fouls not called in this game when Bucks players fouled the Suns. Did you see Cam Payne going up for a layup in the 4th and Giannis and another Bucks player literally crushed Payne between the two of them and Payne missed the shot? NO CALL! Yet Ayton's body barely touches Giannis' while Giannis is going for a layup and it's an immediate foul call. I wish the refs would call a fair game, but they always have to be against a team. It's been that way the last 2 games against the Suns.
@@EliC09 Yes, I saw that. Booker should've fouled out. But there were so many missed calls minutes before that occurred. Booker might not have needed to do that if the other fouls (that were missed by the refs) had been called in the minutes leading up to that point. The refs were dreadful. I've been watching the NBA since I was a kid in the '70s and it truly is embarrasing what is called and what isn't called now. It's all about the money for the players and the league.
@@logarius2178 Holiday is great on defense and needs to not shoot as much. He isn’t their for offenses much as he is for defense, and he has been shooting terribly all series outside one quarter.
There were bad calls or lack there of on both sides but the refs not giving booker his 6th foul twice was straight BS and could’ve legitimately altered the game. But Middleton had a great game and Giannis came in clutch on multiple defensive possessions. Still have suns in 6 but I’m glad the series is starting to get good.
I thought it was a really poor idea to not call a time out when CP ran the ball up the floor and slipped with 40s on the clock. You got two time outs with 40 remaining. Would have been a great time to reset and draw up a good play given that momentum swing
I was in the deer district this game and I’ve never heard a louder outside presence. My gf threw her beer in the air hitting some random and i remember everyone screaming and jumping as far as you could see. I cried… easily the most fun I’ve ever had at a sporting event . Milwaukee home grown! BucksIN6
Yet again, horrible officiating. Crowder got smacked in the face by the Big Guy, but it was only called a simple foul. Really???? The announcers said he was "going for the ball", but when they showed the reply, his hand was nowhere near the ball (which was 2 feet away from his face). And that jump ball that they said went off of a Phx player out of bounds... when they showed the replay, it obviously went off of the Bucks player. The refs were horrible as usual. That one that should've been on Booker with 2 or so minutes left to play should've been called (it was obvious) but they didn't call it for some odd reason. I have no respect for the NBA and their refs.
@@tarifasmanos All players flop, on all teams. Pisses me off so much. Giannis fouls Ayton so much, but they never call it. But when Ayton's body touches Giannis' body in the air, the refs are sure to call it. So sometimes players flop to get the refs attention for the next time.
@@bobl703 refs gifted Suns game 1, maybe stay impartial next time and you'd see that they were hacking Middleton on his shots tonight too. Only difference is he doesn't flop to the ground like he's been shot everytime he gets hit.
I wish there were whole 4th Quarter highlights like this. Need to see the misses and sometimes fouls to appreciate the swings/flow of the game. Highlights where it’s just buckets are annoying at end of game
Exactly. I’ve lost all my respect for the Suns. They get plenty of help from the refs anyways, but still complain. Do other teams complain, yes. But to the extent that the Suns do, no. Hope they are never successful till Booker leaves.
Don’t sleep on the bucks let’s gooooooo bucks tied the series let’s go suns chocked and ya thank you lord Jesus the bucks needed that Win to yes yes yes 👏 wooooo 😆😆😅😅😃😃😭😭
this was one of the best series in recent memory- it was AT Milwaukee in front of the home crowd- the score is 99-99 with 1:30 left you could not ask for a better closer game
The fans of milwaukee bought their energy and enthusiasm. I have not heard such a loud finals crowd since the sonics at key arena in 1996. Maybe Phoenix could bring the same excitement. It sure better than having to hear the dull fans at the Staples center or warriors fans.
Holiday is the unsung hero with those clutch rebounds.
If he played better offensively by making open shots and hitting some of those layups I think the bucks win because they would have played with a lead making it tougher for the sun's. But I'm glad he came up clutch with other little things. Really hoping he can get it going offensively. He's so good on D just inconsistent on O

After Booker murders Holiday then Middleton, he has the audacity to complain when Tucker barley rides him to the hoop. The Suns are a disgrace to the game.
Agreed. Overrated bad team
They're also the masters of the flop Crowder, Booker ,CP3
and they play dirty as hell. Devin Book and Chris Paul out there pushing players in mid air.

Bruh the way Giannis turned around to block that oop is crazy!! Watching live was wild!
Middleton most under the radar player ever doesn't flex just goes and gives his best when his team needs him time and time again.
Can’t wait until next game when Suns win and Suns fans say “Suns in 6.” Then I can’t wait until Game 6 when Bucks win and Bucks fans say “Bucks in 7.” This series is going to 7 🔥
Chris Balls tonight:
4-12😭😭😭
33% from the field😂😂😂
5 turnovers🤡🤡🤡
3 fouls💀💀💀
Flopping all game🤦🏿🤦🏿🤦🏿
Choked horrendously👎👎👎
Point God?😂👎
Bucks will win the next 2 the pressure is on the floppers oops i mean the suns
CP3 the Choke God
The hate is real 😂😂😂
Turnover of the year.
Choke of the Year....... CP3!!!
Nah that title still belongs to LeBron
@@americanpaisareturns9051 You act like two choke god cannot coexist...
The only chance CP3 will ever get a ring and he’s gonna blow it
I’m not surprised. CP always falls short in the playoffs 😂
@@pdboomin2 He is cursed.
"Ye of little faith". This series is nowhere near finished. Suns still have home advantage. They just need to win all their home games and they will be champions. CP3 WILL get his ring.
The only way Cp3 will win this series is that he has to turn Ayton into Karl Malone. He is the master of the pick and roll. I see Jeff Hornacek show up ( I mean Devin Booker) and they still lost
@Evan Bell same here really, I will be happy either.
Neither of them is my home team but their play has got me on the edge of my seat in my living room. Milwaukee has got a deafening cannon roaring crowd.
Chris “The point god” Paul tore it up tonight 🔥🔥🔥
8 points 🔥🔥
4 rebounds 🤯🤯
4-12 shooting (33%) 😳👑
0-2 from three (0%) 🐐💰
5 Turnovers 💯💯
3 Fouls 🗣🗣
Carried by the Refs 🤩
better than Steph Curry? lmao no way😭😹
Steph never won fmvp he doesn’t have argument either. Although cp3 is embarassing himself here
@@000-z6r2u Yeah but it’s not about the “FMVP” which will go to Booker/Giannis anyway, but people were saying “Paul is better than Steph” 🤦🏾♂️
Who Else Had An Anxiety After Watching This
No one else
Me. I went to the gym to work off the nerves and I made it worse lol
Not "after", but definitely "during".
Regardless of what anyone says, I loved watching this series. We may never get a Finals between these two specific teams ever again.
The refs should keep this same energy home and away. Loved the physicality! The Bucks had a little luck and talk about that block from Giannis! Yet some media analyst people say he isn't clutch. At least he's consistent.. smh. I said it before and I'll say it again; If either Jrue or Middleton comes up big time in the remaining games the Bucks are stealing this Trophy.... And in 6!
Giannis isn’t the most clutch offensive player, mainly because he isn’t a great jump shooter, but he is still clutch. When you watch clutch baskets, they are usually jumpers or 3s, which is why Middleton takes the clutch shots for the Bucks. Doesn’t mean Giannis isn’t clutch, though. Giannis plays great defense on clutch moments all the time (his block tonight, knocking the ball away from Jimmy Butler in Game 1 against the Heat, etc.) He just doesn’t get credit for it because it isn’t on offense.
Milwaukee would make a good Champion.
Chris Paul really sold right after a StateFarm commercial🤣
Didn’t knew that NBA superstars can have up to 15 fouls and still be able to stay in the game
Those who keep counting Middleton out haven't been watching these playoffs. Dude will have 1-2 bad playoff games to start the series and then go crazy the rest of the series.
The lack of calls on Booker at the end of the game was DISGUSTING.
what a block reminds me king James block on Igduadala in 2016 game 7 what's fascinating about the two blocks was they were both game saving and winning plays
Like I say before, I don't mind who win, just give me 7 games series
7 games looks like it
A Suns player gonna mess around and FLOP into an injury when they least need it
2:30 Booker really wanted a foul for THAT hahahaha
Even after he beat hugged Holiday and mauled Middleton and those weren’t called. He’s almost as bad as Lebron.
Giannis akumpo tonight:
26pts, 14reb, 8ast, 3stl, 2blk
58%Fg
11-19
W
GOAT
MVP caliber chuck was right after all Bucks are the Juggernaut right now without recognition.
Better than joel
@@jamalmurray5012 I mean... yeah... Hes a 2x mvp
That block from Giannis was nasty af and even though holiday was 4-20 from the field his d was clutch as well
His inner Bledsoe kicked in. At least he was big in defence and had low turnovers
His presence is so much more than bledsoe tho. I don't hate bledsoe but Jrue has an impact on the game
Perkin's Batman is back!!
That Giannis block was insane
Goaltend
@@Haurdead123 i see you again buddy did you stop crying?? 😭😭😭😢😢😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
The block was easy because the pass was bad (ball was behind the rim), so Ayton had a difficult dunk attempt and that gave Giannis a higher probability of a block.
@@bobl703 That block wasn’t easy. Try blocking a dunk and get back to me.
@@joshkutz982 Look at it again. It was NOT a dunk attempt. He was falling/flying further away (to the left) from the rim, so he was trying to THROW the ball into the basket. His momentum was taking him AWAY from the basket. Watch the replay again. Look where Ayton LANDED. BEHIND the backboard. His head barely missed the bottom of the backboard! It was physically impossible to dunk that ball because of where the ball was caught and his momentum taking him away from the basket.
I love this series of "who wants it more" at the end no 3s, went back to fundamentals & defence.
These 2 just defended their court. Next 3 games are even more critical for both teams cuz now they both know what a loss feels like.
Suns been getting questionable calls all year but that no call on booker wasn’t a good look
Fiserv sounds like it could've given AT&T Center in 2014, Oracle in 2015 or Scotiabank in 2019 a run for their money in terms of crowd volume.
That boy devin booker fouled out at least 3x
This proves that as long as the Bucks have the roster they have now and nobody injuries themselves seriously they can easily win it. They won it with Divencenzo out, and without Giannis for a couple games. Middleton and Holiday handled a couple games themselves, not every single game during these dramatic playoffs, but they have clutch moments. Good players do good things. Unarguably a top NBA team that has what it takes.
I actually was on an nba finals roster in 2015 but I did not play and I got waived right after losing
U went to Arkansas
2:40 Booker has some nerve complaining about a no call when the refs bailed him from fouling out minutes before, not once, but twice 😂
4:30 Giannis inbounds while still inbounds himself. Could be called as a turnover. Wilt Chamberlain did the same thing in the iconic Jerry West 3/4 court shot to tie the game.
nah we arent gonna talk about that how about that block though? :D
Never was the biggest fan of giannis but that block was the 2nd best block I’ve seen in my life as a fan
Booker salty asf, crying all the way to the locker room. 😅😅
And the refs were still cheating for him and Booker had the nerve to complain SMH
Middleton is so clutch! Giannis is goated for that block!!
Glad bucks won. The whole suns teamed flop way to much . Karma did it's work
I think the Suns have to flop because they never get the fouls called their way. Many fouls not called in this game when Bucks players fouled the Suns. Did you see Cam Payne going up for a layup in the 4th and Giannis and another Bucks player literally crushed Payne between the two of them and Payne missed the shot? NO CALL! Yet Ayton's body barely touches Giannis' while Giannis is going for a layup and it's an immediate foul call. I wish the refs would call a fair game, but they always have to be against a team. It's been that way the last 2 games against the Suns.
Ball don't lie
@@bobl703 did you see the bear hug Booker gave to Holliday that should’ve been his 6th foul, making him miss the rest of the game?
Ik rite looking like fish out of water
@@EliC09 Yes, I saw that. Booker should've fouled out. But there were so many missed calls minutes before that occurred. Booker might not have needed to do that if the other fouls (that were missed by the refs) had been called in the minutes leading up to that point. The refs were dreadful. I've been watching the NBA since I was a kid in the '70s and it truly is embarrasing what is called and what isn't called now. It's all about the money for the players and the league.
Highlights are the best part of the game...
Khris with some amazing shots and Giannis with some amazing defensive plays. CP3 is in rot right now, Bucks have the momentum.
a rut after one game????????
Nah Khris and ESPECIALLY jrue needs to play well more on away games. There’s only so much giannis can carry and shoot free throws
@@logarius2178 Holiday is great on defense and needs to not shoot as much. He isn’t their for offenses much as he is for defense, and he has been shooting terribly all series outside one quarter.
There were bad calls or lack there of on both sides but the refs not giving booker his 6th foul twice was straight BS and could’ve legitimately altered the game. But Middleton had a great game and Giannis came in clutch on multiple defensive possessions. Still have suns in 6 but I’m glad the series is starting to get good.
if milwaukee loss this game after that nocall on booker that ref would be getting bullied worse than ben simmons 😂
We need a ALLSTATE commercial with Paul dropping the ball imagine dribbling on a water slide, so funny hahahah
Monty Williams a double agent, left CPTurnovers in the game
I agree this is clearly about money$$$ greasy palms
I thought it was a really poor idea to not call a time out when CP ran the ball up the floor and slipped with 40s on the clock. You got two time outs with 40 remaining. Would have been a great time to reset and draw up a good play given that momentum swing
DAMMMNNN THAT BLOCK ON AYTON!!! I thought that lob was unstoppable but I was wrong. 0:57
PHOENIX in trouble because HOLIDAY struggled and still won plus they have MVP.
I was in the deer district this game and I’ve never heard a louder outside presence. My gf threw her beer in the air hitting some random and i remember everyone screaming and jumping as far as you could see. I cried… easily the most fun I’ve ever had at a sporting event . Milwaukee home grown! BucksIN6
This was a good last 2 mins
Giannis block is like Lebron Block vs Gsw. This block give spirit and momentum for bucks. Go buck for champ 🤘
This was a back and forth game
Giannis never gives up and sees every play through. Wow.
It’s so enjoyable watching while knowing the outcome
CP3 turns the ball over during the most important possession in the entire series. What a classic lmao
This win was well deserved by the Bucks especially after the Booker no call
Yet again, horrible officiating. Crowder got smacked in the face by the Big Guy, but it was only called a simple foul. Really???? The announcers said he was "going for the ball", but when they showed the reply, his hand was nowhere near the ball (which was 2 feet away from his face). And that jump ball that they said went off of a Phx player out of bounds... when they showed the replay, it obviously went off of the Bucks player. The refs were horrible as usual. That one that should've been on Booker with 2 or so minutes left to play should've been called (it was obvious) but they didn't call it for some odd reason. I have no respect for the NBA and their refs.
and crowders floppings
@@bobl703 crowder is a flopper stupid.
@@tarifasmanos All players flop, on all teams. Pisses me off so much. Giannis fouls Ayton so much, but they never call it. But when Ayton's body touches Giannis' body in the air, the refs are sure to call it. So sometimes players flop to get the refs attention for the next time.
@@bobl703 refs gifted Suns game 1, maybe stay impartial next time and you'd see that they were hacking Middleton on his shots tonight too. Only difference is he doesn't flop to the ground like he's been shot everytime he gets hit.
I wish there were whole 4th Quarter highlights like this. Need to see the misses and sometimes fouls to appreciate the swings/flow of the game. Highlights where it’s just buckets are annoying at end of game
What the hell booker was complaining about....come on dude ....did u see bucks complaining when u fouled on jrue 🤔
Exactly. I’ve lost all my respect for the Suns. They get plenty of help from the refs anyways, but still complain. Do other teams complain, yes. But to the extent that the Suns do, no. Hope they are never successful till Booker leaves.
cp the greatest choke job in history! way to go BOY
Don’t sleep on the bucks let’s gooooooo bucks tied the series let’s go suns chocked and ya thank you lord Jesus the bucks needed that Win to yes yes yes 👏 wooooo 😆😆😅😅😃😃😭😭
Suns still winning the finals nigga 🙄
Ben Dover your very funny that’s way I’m the suns blow a 2-0 lewd ehh nah Bucks in 6or7 my guy 😂😂🤣🤣😃😃👍🏿👍🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Suns in 4 straight losses!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
this was one of the best series in recent memory- it was AT Milwaukee in front of the home crowd- the score is 99-99 with 1:30 left you could not ask for a better closer game
INSTANT CLASSIC 🔥🔥🔥
The fans of milwaukee bought their energy and enthusiasm. I have not heard such a loud finals crowd since the sonics at key arena in 1996. Maybe Phoenix could bring the same excitement. It sure better than having to hear the dull fans at the Staples center or warriors fans.
I really thought he picked up his 6 foul after that layup good game Bucks
I would like to see more cam Johnson out there especially guarding Middleton bridges pissed me off giving 2 many open shots to him
