I'm also impressed with the Bucks because they don't whine about calls throughout the game like the Suns tend to do. I like Booker but he's been showing glimpses of LeBron when it comes to complaining to the refs about alleged non-calls.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say CP3 is probably not going to get a ring. To be honest, I don't care.
Agree with all the above....it is the first time all 3 Bucks stars shot well. Holiday has been the one letting everyone down until last night. Fantastic game for him. Booker is just a fantastic scorer but its pretty ironic for him to complain about fouls when he is beating the living hell out of the guy he is guarding.

Holiday's steal and alley oop pass to Giannis may have been the key play of the series so far.

Well, Suns had cut a big lead down to 1 point? And had the ball? Nobody has stopped Booker yet so I was figuring them to score and then everyone do the hack-a-thon to try and get the other team to miss free throws. Not my favorite part of the game.
I know the media is declaring the series over, but it took all 3 Bucks stars playing very well and the game still went down to the wire. Phoenix is still a very dangerous team.
Basically, I agree with importance of that play. It may have saved the series for Milwaukee.

This is the kind of shit that makes me want to see Chris Paul lose. He's a sore loser, period.

Article:
Giannis Antetokounmpo – as great as he has played overall – has shot just 39-for-66 on free throws in the NBA Finals (59%).

But the Bucks have offensively rebounded some of those misses, including Antetokounmpo tipping out his own miss after he drew a foul on his incredible alley-oop late in Game 5.

“Everybody’s out there anticipating a miss,” Suns guard Chris Paul said. “Hell, even he is.”

Paul isn’t wrong. But that’s harsh to say.

It’s especially harsh because Devin Booker – sitting beside Paul at the press conference – already answered the question. Paul could have easily let Booker’s benign words stand alone. Especially after a loss, players often want to talk as little as possible then leave.

But Paul wanted to get in this comment.

Does CP3 think this will get in Giannis' head and make him shoot worse?

He needs to worry about himself like not dribbling off his own leg. LOL.

Congrats Bucks fans, you guys deserved it. Giannis is a beast.
Oh and Chris Paul could learn a thing or two about sportsmanship from his coach, Monty Williams. Class act.

CP3 needed CPR. Glad the Suns lost as everyone was clamoring for him to get a ring like it was the most important thing in life.

Here's one reason I've become a fan of Giannis Antetokounmpo. It also reinforces my disdain towards James Harden.

Excerpt from an article:

Giannis Antetokounmpo is an NBA champion, and after winning his first NBA title, he took a moment to recognize his haters. His most notable hater is Nets star James Harden, who almost certainly was the target of Antetokounmpo’s postgame comments.

“It’s easy to go somewhere and go win a championship with somebody else; it’s easy,” Antetokounmpo said after the Bucks defeated the Suns in Game 6. “I don’t want to put anybody on the spot, but I could go to a superteam and just do my part and win a championship, but this is the hard way to do it, and we did it. We f------ did it. We did it, man.”

Antetokounmpo didn’t need to say a name. We all know who he’s talking about.

I saw where some were saying he was dissing KD. What if he was just answering a question and not attacking anyone? Although if he was gonna attack anyone, Harden is a good target.

It was definitely Harden because that fool bad mouths Giannis all the time. He's a little bitch because he didn't win the league's MVP. He said stuff like Giannis can only run and dunk but he (Harden) has developed his whole game. Whatever, lol.

I only included a portion of the article. There's more supporting evidence that he was inferring Harden. You could of course include KD in that group, but KD hasn't talked smack about Giannis.
