Playoff P played another good game when his Clippers faced elimination.
Man, these Clippers are a tough, resilient team.
PG13 had 41 points on efficient 15 for 20 shooting. 13 rebounds, and three steals in an elimination game. Wow!
Reggie Jackson scored 23 points and Marcus Morris helped out with 22.
Although I am cheering for the Suns, I would not be surprised if these two teams play a game 7.
Ayton needs to be more aggressive on the offensive and defensive end. He didn't play as well last night. Crowder played like shit as well last night. No defense played, Clips kept firing away lol. Hopefully they can close it on the road.
It is sad to see a playoff series changing because a big star like Giannis leaves a game due to a serious injury.
Hyperextended left knee for Giannis.
The Bucks look done.
Trae Young may return in game 5.
-recovering from a bone bruise.
Well, at least Giannis does not need to hear the Hawks’ fans chant a countdown while
He tries to make free throws instead of air balls.
Lou Williams had a good game with 21 points. Lou can definitely still play despite previously considering retirement this season after being traded to the Hawks.

Beverely and Cousins, both are complete idiots. Stupid plays and cannot control their tempers, that kinda shit won't win games. No composure, will never get on the elite level to compete for a championship.
Didn't watch Game 6, but props to Bucks for taking the series without Giannis last 2 games. Will be good NBA Finals (at least some new blood in the NBA Finals rather than seeing King James LOL).
Who you guys got for the chip?
I can't stand Paul's antics of whining for calls and flops but he's clearly one of the best PG's of all time.
I feel the Suns are going to win, Budenholzer can't adjust and what did resting his stars get him? Giannis injured.
Perhaps the Bucks didn't have to play so many extra unnecessary games if they closed out the previous 2 series earlier.

Milwaukee wins the championship in a tough 7 game series IF Giannis is playing healthy.
The Suns guards Booker and CP3 will
Play really well. The big X factor is whether Ayton can step up his game even more in the Finals.
Ayton will be tested defensively. He also must stay out of foul trouble.
The Bucks defence and depth with Middleton and Holiday will be the difference in this series.
Giannis is going to space out the floor better for the Bucks shooters to make 3 pointers.
Booker vs Middleton.
If Jrue Holiday plays aggressive even when Giannis is on the floor, that will bode well for the Bucks.
This Finals series is gonna be really close.
Bucks win in 7 because Booker and CP3 are going to carry their team but are going to fall
Short because of the Bucks defence.
I do not think the Suns can guard Giannis and Middleton well enough in a 7 game series.
Update: Giannis plays in game 1.

Good win for Suns in Game 1. CP3 played MVP. Ayton beasts on the boards. Booker played his usual. All well around game played by Suns. Giannis can tell he's not 100% and hesitate to test his strength at times.
The Suns are killing the Bucks with fast break points. Their defence from their wing players is quite good. Cameron Payne and Johnson provide good defence. Lopez is just too slow to defend against Ayton.
Giannis with the epic chase down block.
-really wonder what kind of Adjustments that coach Budholzer will make to the Bucks’ perimeter defence.
Too many easy lobs to Ayton for dunks tonight.

I actually think the Bucks can pull it off. I would say Bucks in 6/7.
Definitely the Suns have been playing faster, and has shooters across the board. Deep bench, and are hungrier. But for some reason I can't count out Giannis, if the Bucks make the necessary adjustments I think it will be a great finals.

That's been the Buck's problem all playoffs (and even from last season) is that they don't adjust. 17 years under Poppovich and Budenholzer hasn't learned squat. Stephen Jackson called him out on his podcast that Bud didn't really do much on the Spurs coaching staff when he was there, it was Mike Brown planning the defensive sets, etc.
Good game 3 win for the Bucks. Giannis scores 40 points or more in back To back games. The fifth player to score 40 points in back to back games in the Finals to join Jordan, LeBron, Kevin Durant and Jimmy Butler in that category.
Giannis joins Shaq to be second player in NBA Finals history to have 40 plus points and 10 plus rebounds.
Most of the Suns players did not shoot well. Only Crowder shot well. 6 for 7 for three pointers.
Cameron Johnson with the posterizing dunk!
Booker had a poor game. Good idea for Coach Williams to rest him in this game. Game 4 is on Wednesday.
Suns should been up 3-1 series. Booker foul trouble and CP3 turnovers (played like shit).
They'll bounce back in game 5 at home.
I give some credit to the Bucks for being resilient in winning game 4. Although they were down 9 points in the fourth quarter, they just kept attacking the basket.
Giannis with the steal for a big dunk. Connaughton made a huge 3 pointer.l in the fourth quarter. Middleton played his best game of the Finals with 40 points from his great shooting.
Giannis with a huge block too.
Game 5 is anybody’s game. Game 5 is gonna be even better to watch.
I don’t know if Budholzer should get credit for the play calls, but having Giannis and Middleton play screen and roll to get buckets in the fourth quarter was a good decision.
