Milwaukee Bucks one win away from the title
The Bucks have won the last three games in the Finals series against the Suns keeping them just one game short of winning the 2021 NBA Championship for the first time in 50 years. Coach Budenholzer’s team have a great chance of achieving that in front of their home crowd on Wednesday. The Bucks are the ones with better morale at the moment after trailing 2-0.
Giannis Antetokoumnpo and co have done a great job so far in the season and they deserve to be crowned champions if they win. In the first quarter of game five, the Bucks were outscored 37-21 by the Suns. 68% field goal shooting including six three-pointers in the second quarter revived their chances and went on to win the game and stole the home-court advantage from the Suns.

Phoenix Suns in a do or die game to keep their hopes alive
The Phoenix Suns started the series in the perfect way by winning the first two games at home. Coach Monty Williams’ team lost three consecutive games for the first time since January and now find their backs on the wall as they are one defeat away from conceding the title to the Bucks. The Suns were favorites to win the title before the start of the series but are now underdogs by over two points.
Despite scoring 40 and 27 points, Devin Booker and Chris Paul couldn’t lead their team to victory as turnovers in crucial stages of the game proved costly for coach Wiliams’ team. It will be very hard to handle the loss of this series if it happens for the Suns as they had a great season so far and deserve to be champions just like the Bucks.
