That first quarter was something to see. You got a glimpse of the Suns at their full potential. Giannis is just too much for them though. Ayton does a good job but he’s just not enough. I think the Suns have been playing great and this has no doubt been their best season since 1993, but with their back to the wall and the Bucks heading home it doesn’t look good…

Yeah, not to rub it in though, they have been shouting for "Suns in 4", but now they are the one who's back is against the wall. But it's not yet over, although their chances are slim right now. They have to go to the road and win to force a decider to their home court.

I really thought that they are going to win because they took a huge lead in the first and they are very good at protecting it. Unfortunately, this is the first game that Bucks big 3 has scored 20++ points in a game if I'm not mistaken. Giannis getting his first MVP in the finals if they are going to win in their home court in game 6.

On the contrary, it will be the Bucks who are going to sweep them in next game. After losing the first 2 games, now they've won the last 3 and could make it 4 and a sweep.

That defensive gem of Holiday though, they know that Booker will be taking the ball so he reads it early and double team him. And that lob pass to Giannis is perfect. Booker though has another 40 point game and Paul and Ayton did their thing. But it wasn't enough, as Giannis was really unstoppable inside the paint, getting fouled, although missing free throws, but it was their total effort in the defense and their composure in the last minutes, specially when Suns are coming back that gave them this huge pivotal win.
