I really wanted to see a game 7, this doesn't change anything and there could still be a game 7 but I have to say that it is now a lot harder for Suns to end up winning at a road game, there is a good chance Bucks could end this in 6. ~snip~

The situation now favors the Bucks, they'll bring their biggest crowd in game 6 because if they'll win, they'll celebrate. I also don't see a scenario where the Suns will ruin this, if the Bucks will win, they deserve to celebrate the championship at home.

With this possible win, Giannis will be proven to be one of the legit NBA stars because his resume will go like this.

Regular season MVP
NBA Finals MVP
NBA Champion.

At a young age of 26 years old, that's already a big achievement and he deserves that as he never joins a superteam to win a championship. Durant is 32 years old and yet so explosive, if Giannis will develop more as a player, he will become as good as Lebron but better as a team player. Chris Paul's dream to win a championship before he retires might not be realized, and next season will be tough for the Suns as most teams will be healthy again.

I think he is still improving, last year we never seen this version of Giannis and they always fall short.

Now, he is leading the team and even though he suffered a injury, he was able to come back from it and now performing like a true 2x MVP. He has now developed to be a facilitator, and then he can go one on one facing the basket. But he needs to make sure to hit that free throws, because there are games that are decided on it. Just like when Paul George misses both on their series against the Phoenix. Lots of improvement but he is capable as he is still very young.

Don’t forget DPOY. He’s only the third to ever do that.

I wanted the Suns to win, but Giannis deserves it so you can’t be too upset. All the games have been pretty close though so for now I will be waiting and hoping like everyone else that we get to see a game seven in this series.

I know that you are a big fan of Phoenix specially Ayton, but boy, Bucks really surprises us all with the huge come back win against them in their home court.

And numbers shows that >70% when a team leads 3-2, they will eventually become a champion. No doubt that Suns is a good team, but as you have said, Bucks is the better team and they may close them out in Fiserv and crown as the NBA champions.

True, as we all know, there are discussions before about him winning the MVP and then falling short in playoffs. Now he is on the verge of joining the elites, winning those individual and team accomplishment would really legitimised himself as one of the best in this generation and his name will almost pop out in the discussions together with Lebron James, Steph Curry and Kevin Durant.

It's already a momentum shift on them winning game 5, just one more and they will become the NBA champions and it will be in their home court.

It is not that common to see finals being in game 7 and even on last 2-3 minutes teams being close, usually the games end in 6 games or so, that is a lot more common than game 7s, I can see that same here as well.

Plus, it could be a bit more sweet for Bucks to win at home, it is going to be on their home court and they could have the craziest celebration of their life, a few generations haven't seen them win the league, their last one was in 1971 and that is exactly 50 years ago, anyone at the age of 50 or lower did not see them win a championship which is I think 4 whole generations if I am not wrong, so a home court celebration would be quite good and entertaining.

It was a hell of a game last night! To be honest, I was expecting Suns to defeat Bucks in this one but Bucks really surprised me. But it was a really close and competitive game that's for sure. Booker scored 40 points. Paul and Ayton made a double-double. But this was not enough for a win (119-123). There was a really great teamwork at Bucks in this game. Giannis got 32 points, Middleton got 29 points and Holiday got 27 points. This is a really good point distribution between the best players of the team. This played a big role on this win also.

Now that Bucks are 3-2 ahead in the series, I can't wait to see the next game. It's in Milwaukee this time and I wonder if Bucks will be able to finish the job. But I feel like the series will be 3-3 after that.

Yeah that was definitely a shocker to me.  This Bucks team look wildly different than game 1 and 2.  They were playing hesitant in those games.  Don't know what to think now about the series.  I selfishly want Suns to win next game so we can get a game 7 in.

That will be the only chance the Suns will win, otherwise, we have to say goodbye to them and people are wrong to think they'll finish the series early. Honestly, I don't know if the Suns still have that urge to win, losing 3 in a row would not do good to help them boost their confidence, maybe they might just give this up or they will play a desperate game.

An intense match, 1st quarter taken by Suns and then the rest of the quarters being dominated by the Bucks. No debate for both fans of these two great teams. But who's waiting to see Giannis succeed on this finals and take his first ever championship ring? Well, both Antetokoumpo brothers(Kostas) will win a championship if the Bucks will take the game 6. Although it's not yet finished and Suns can still win the game 6. I'm just expecting the most possible scene that might happen for the next game but we all want to see game 7 too though.

As for the entertainment part of it, It's more enjoyable to see the series extend up to
game 7 but for sure Bucks will try everything to take this at home,.

A very first title for Giannis and a sweet one for the Bucks if they'll managed to win it at home,
the money that they've paid Giannis will be paid off if they get this title this season.

Too early to say but this series is more interesting compared to those past title match!
It's not that early anymore, the game 6 is approaching and it could be the last game of the season or if not then another last game remains, the game 7.
So I don't think that it's too early to say. It's either 1 game left or 2 more games left and that's not a lot of games anymore to wait because the series is about to end and we're going to see the champion of this season and we're moving on again to the next season whereas, there will be more of roster changes again.

Finally, Holiday had a great game, 13 assists, 3 steals and 27 points, which was so special.

Buck hold on from the big run of the Suns, they still win the game and now they are 1 game away to get this championship win.

The question is will they win at home? my answer is probably yes because this is a championship game, they beat the Suns on the road, they can surely get this win at home.

Bucks had three players with around 30 points in game 5, and that brought them third win in a row
it is not finished yet, but Bucks now have title-match at home ground, and they will probably not miss it, Suns had two wins prior to Giannis come-back, and that was all from them obviously, title is going to East, in Milwaukee

nevertheless, underdogs are here, but interesting final

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…
They aren't to be honest, Giannis and the team badly needed this ring as well.

Well, both Antetokoumpo brothers(Kostas) will win a championship if the Bucks will take the game 6.
If they win then they'll make history for set of brothers that won a NBA title playing on the same team. Pau and Marc are the only brothers to win NBA title but they are in different season and team, this time it's on the same team and the same season. Let's go!!!!! Bucks in 6.

It was a great match, and the Suns had a great chance to win, but they played disgustingly in the second quarter. So upcoming game six will be in Milwaukee, and it looks like the Bucks will have a good opportunity to win the second title in their franchise history. However, I would like to see game 7 in this final series.

I was really shocked to see that Bucks won again and made the series 3-2. They have won 3 times in a row and Suns should do something about this. Otherwise, Bucks are going to win the title if they win the 6th game also.

At Suns, Booker was incredibly great that he got 40 points. But Giannis - Middleton - Holiday trio did their thing finally and each of them had a really awesome performance. If they maintain this teamplay, Suns' job will be really hard.

It doesn't really look good for the Suns indeed. That was a good game actually. The Suns still lost even with Giannis missed everything in the free throw lane.
Milwaukee just came out better in game 5. Exciting game for both the fans and the bettors.
Everybody though the Suns could've turned the table around until the Holiday steal and Giannis alley-op.
There was a lot of opportunity right there for the Suns to win or tie the game up, but then again the Bucks just came out the better team today.
The suns have a chance of winning that game until holiday steals the ball, paul should have handled the ball and set Ayton or booker for a catch and shoot, since under the basket is where the bigs of the bucks are waiting, as a floor general paul should have made those plays, instead of giving booker decision on what to do, since paul have all the experience a bad play I guess on that last one, but still they have the chance but it will be more difficult, looks like they have paul check on his plays.
