Bucks vs Suns NBA Finals Thread

Maybe we're giving Phoenix too many kudos. Maybe they did show their best in game 5? Maybe the Bucks are a much better team, and when the chips are down, can take it to almost anyone, if they remember what happened to them the last two years?

Just a thought. When teams go down 0-2, and come back and play gutty games like the Bucks have in this series, it says something about what they have inside.

And Bud made some really nice subtle adjustments after game 1. Williams without Saric was just not as flexible.

No. Milwaukee actually played really well in game 2. Phoenix just hit contested shots. Said it before Saric out is big. Games 4 & 5 came down to last 2 minutes. Even series

On Paper PHX better team MKE has had stronger will to win IMO

 

[GBP4EVER]

I just think it was a closer series past game 1. Game 1 Phoenix was fresher with the layoff and Giannis was just getting his legs.

Well Giannis was the Bucks game 2

Will give Bud credit he really has adjusted on the fly as he needed to make sure Bucks are winning

Well Giannis was the Bucks game 2

And Phoenix was hitting contested looks all night

Giannis has shown why he's a elite player he has taken over when needed to will MKE to wins

Yeah but outside of GIannis not much else for shooting

And Phoenix shot 50% from 3. If Connaughton hits that 3 to cut the lead to 3 Bucks win. Subtle things changed that game

I have no quarrel with that statement. I've softened my view on him considerably. What I've been watching evolve for the last four games tells me he is getting through to the players, and they are executing the game plan.

At this point, I'd say he's done a pretty good job of making the Bucks relevant, after looking like they didn't belong on the same floor with the Suns.

I’ve beaten a dead horse saying he outcoached Nash and McMillan. He’s just a damn good X & O’s coach. Sometimes his substitute patterns are questionable but hey he’s not perfect
