2021 NBA Finals: Milwaukee Bucks vs Phoenix Suns BUCKS WIN THE TITLE!!!!

There was a point a few weeks back when things looked so bleak vs. the Nets

Piss on the Nets

So I wonder what Bogdanović is thinking right now... well at least I wasn't the 4th scorer...

We did and it'd be a pleasure to watch it happen again next season!

Jrue, said to be one of the nicest guys in the League, spends his moments thanking everyone and giving attention to Portis.

[MrTPlush]

As great as this is, whoever designed those shirts and put ‘2x champs’ should be fired…I mean what? Let’s put that next year when we win it two ones in a row. Real weird phase to connect to championship 50 years a apart.

What's DDV thinking right now?

If Bogdanovic had come here, Portis wouldn't have. I'm good with the way it went down.

Bucks in six, always.

Coach Bud to Giannis: “We did it”

Giannis: “We’re gonna do it again”

[homer]

Thank God for Durant's big feet.

[adambr2]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Mike Budenholzer won't be fired.

[CheezWizHed]

I keep forgetting that Darvin Ham is a coach. He was on the last (pre-Giannis) Bucks team that had a legit chance to win a championship. The Bobby Portis of his day. Glad to see him win one.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Giannis is everything we always wanted him and needed him to be. Absolutely did everything and then some in a clinching game in a championship series.

All time performance tonight.

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Reverse of the Raptors series. Bucks pretty dominant after Game 2.

 

Really cool amd fun to follow this thread. Thanks, all. Bucks in 6!!!

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Thank God for Durant's big feet.

 

One inch. That was all that was standing in the way of the Bucks being eliminated, Bud being fired, and a likely soft rebuild. Instead look for them to enjoy this, and run back a very similar looking squad next year as the presumed favorites.

 

Crazy game.

Shouts to PJ Tucker too. Just a D machine all night. Played his heart out.

He really stepped up with the free throws which has always been his downfall especially in the playoffs.

[pacopete4]

I wish they’d get these guys out on a stage in the Deer District. Get real wild!

[PinaMadness]

I never thought I'd live to see the day a Milwaukee sports team would win a championship. All is forgiven, Bud. You now have a lifetime pass.

[DuWayne Steurer]

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Mike Budenholzer won't be fired.

 

 

Realistically, at this point, I'll agree that he shouldn't be. He showed in the last few rounds of these playoffs that he's capable of learning from his past mistakes and adjusting to "playoff" style basketball. Is he a great coach? No, I won't make that argument, but he's learned how to play playoff basketball and if the guys like playing for him and he's (at the very least) not a liability with stubborn poor decision making and dumb rotational minute and bench usage, firing Bud to bring in some other retread is probably an exercise in futility.
