Bucks vs Suns NBA Finals Thread

So sun's coach cry about refs last night. Guy has no right to complain when sun's got favorable calls at home.
 
Middleton vs Harden comparison show Middleton having a percentage edge on FGs, 3 pt shots, free throws, and fewer turnovers. On the other hand, Harden has the edge on rebounds, assists, steals, and blocked shots.

Kind of a dead heat when you put it all in perspective. For the win, Middleton is under 30, and Harden will be turning 32. It's probable Middleton will have a longer shelf life.

Showing how it's hard to define defense, Harden's defensive figures are higher, but Middleton's physical presence on defense is more pronounced.

Harden makes his paycheck going to the rim, he’s stronger than Middleton. The defense thing is sometimes subjective, if Harden is matched up vs say option 3 or 4 his numbers might me higher. Middleton usually draws a harder matchup
 
It doesn't get much bigger than tonight. To win the series, the Bucks almost have to win this one, or it's over. Winning two in Phoenix, including the one after this one is almost impossible.

What's most surprising about this team is how they can pull themselves up by the bootstraps when it appears they're on their way out, and pull out a series victory. If nothing else, they are very resilient. If they win it now, they'll have earned it.

As much as I believed they weren't going this far, I now believe they have it in them to win it, as long as they play with the intensity they showed in the last game. They cannot let up for a second, because they can go colder than almost any team I've seen, when they're out of rhythm.

Whats going to be interesting to watch is what PHX does if Ayton gets in foul trouble again. Kaminsky is a liability on defense and he gets exposed when he's on an island. And with Saric out as well as Craig (probably) it really limits what Williams can do. Bridges came back to earth but Booker is not going 3-14 again.
