The pressure is on the Bucks here not on Phoenix.

Maybe if they believe they can win because they are playing at their home, but no if the game 3 loss is still haunting them as they could have won that game. CP3 made mistakes with his turnover and so did Booker has he needs to sit like 5 minutes in the 4th quarter as he got 5 fouls, that was the time the Bucks had a great opportunity for a big run.

We will see in game 5 but I think we have a lot of Bucks backers here as they already won twice in a row, if they will lose it should be a close game and they might cover the -4.5 spread. I love to read what the guys here think about game 5, will the Suns bounce back this time?

Also, the under seemed lock for me. Thoughts on my bet?
The Suns' crowd is one of the best crowds this post season and for sure, the Bucks are in too much pressure right now even though they won 2 in a row.
I wonder how Giannis will handle this crowd when he shoots free throws. Lets face it, the counting of the crowd when he shoots is distracting him causing him to miss a lot of free throws compare to when he is shooting on their home.


Even at home, Giannis is still not consistent with his free throw so I don't see the pressure here, he shoots his way and that's it. IMO, the pressure is also high for the Suns because the Bucks were able to tied the series, that's scary knowing they beat the Suns twice in a row already.

Why will Giannis worry about his free throw FG if all the defensive player that guarding will be foul out due to consistent fouling him? It's ok if Giannis will miss a few score while he can completely dominate the court when his guard is scared of fouling out are the best man who can defend him is already out of the game. Giannis has a high stamina and he can play a very physical game throughout the game. So far, no one can stop Giannis since the game 2.

What the heck. I am going underdog with Bucks tomorrow. Bucks ML.
Suns will have their confidence back at their home court so the Bucks must answer every offensive attack they will make and because of that I am going Over 216.5.  Grin
Middleton should shine more, I liked how he played at Game 4 but it's still not enough. Waiting for him to heat up is not good for the team, Giannis will get exhausted early if he doesn't contribute as early as he could. Cheers!

Well, you can surely support Bucks if that's what you want and respect your decision in doing so, and I know that the momentum right now is on the side of the Bucks but as you have said this game is really unpredictable we surely don't know who's going to win, and I think going with the odds hype is a thing we can do as well and right now that the game is on Suns home court but anything can really happen, and if you look at stake.com's odd the Suns is the sportsbook pick right now with 1.59 for the Suns and 2.43 for the Bucks.

home advantage is obviously pretty important between these two teams, Bucks need to win this or seventh, if they won to get the title
Suns are a bit of a favorite in fifth, but everything is open, and Bucks on 2.4 seem as better value than Suns on 1.6, just saying, not sure that they will be able to pull a win in fifth match

ML for Bucks seems interesting for sure those believers will take it no matter what, but like what you said home advantage is a big factor here,
we witness the game last game 4 and Suns almost win that with  such performance from their main man DBooker!

And sure he will imitate that game going home, and with those Social memes about Kendall  Roll Eyes Cool something personal might heat up!

This is exactly why I might take Bucks tonight. Because too many people are backing up Suns in game 5 but like I said in some of my previous posts, it looks like Bucks really found a trick in both offense and defense that Suns cannot stop.

I'm sure Bucks will play the same type of game and wait to see if Suns is coming with something new to their game style or they will simply struggle again. Also , I do think that Bucks have an ace in their hand in case Suns really comes with something amazing.

 and right now the odd is on a favor for the Suns with 1.59 to 2.44 for the Milwaukee Bucks on stake.com.

I don't know if betting on them in the series now is a smart idea because if we really think they'll win the series, the best strategy for me is to bet on them in game 5 ML and if Suns win, I'll double it in game 7. We have a different strategy though but the game is very unpredictable so who knows, Bucks will have their straight wins, so you don't need the series to be over to bag that win.

Obviously, that's the right line because of the home-court advantage, and thus far, both teams have not lost their home-court advantage yet and game 5 will be a crucial one and I believe everyone will be on the Suns to win, so far in this series, the favorites bettors in every game are very profitable.

CP3 made mistakes with his turnover and so did Booker has he needs to sit like 5 minutes in the 4th quarter as he got 5 fouls, that was the time the Bucks had a great opportunity for a big run.

Suns will win on Game 5. Booker will be more cautious about his fouls and CP3 will try to prevent having turnovers. Bets on Suns Smiley.

The recipe for a win, but let's see if they can work it accordingly.

Very interesting finals so far. I don't follow the NBA that closely but after the end of the regular season all i heard was that the Brooklyn Nets will probably be the champion this year after they got James Harden and Kevin Durant to join their team, but somehow the Bucks managed to defeat them in a very close series it seems. Now the final series are just as close and both teams managed to win their home games so far, so i think that the Suns have a lot of pressure today and it will be very hard game for them, because now the bucks have the momentum on their side and the suns know that Milwaukee will have a match-point in their own stadium in game 6 if they don't manage to beat them today.

Suns beat the West favorites to win the NBA Finals, while the Bucks beat the East favorites to win the NBA Finals, they are the underdog, we don't expect them to beat a superteam, however, we can always make an exception because they played an injured team, Lakers has an injured Davis while Nets had an injured Harden and Irving.

I like how the Phoenix Suns adjusted on Game 4. They had the lead for a long time but just got short because of foul trouble. Again this is the problem when bench players can't play well too.
Cam Payne is one of the players that I want to see performing at a higher level. So far I can't see the same energy that I witnessed against the Clippers when CP3 was in health and safety protocol.

I will be betting for the Suns as they are good at home.

We have a different strategy though but the game is very unpredictable so who knows, Bucks will have their straight wins, so you don't need the series to be over to bag that win.
With both teams tied after game 4 the series odds is basically the same as it started last week so it's a good chance for those who missed out. Imo it's not the best strategy knowing that some sportsbook have decent promos like the double winnings on stake but on the other hand it's not that bad if you want to slightly reduce the risk since there's always a chance that the Suns or Bucks take a game win on the road. We've seen other teams lose their key players through injuries and still put up a fight.
Down to best of 3 now.

Road win is possible for the Bucks in game 5. If they did, then there's a big possibility that they will win the finals for this year. On the other hand, Phoenix is the betting favourite as per bookies, but if they have to contend on the road as well to make it 4-2. Good thing is that both teams have healthy superstars. It's just how they are going to respond, Giannis also shows his ware, time for CP3 to get back again.

I was not able to post my pick but I'm with the Bucks in this series, so I won in game 4. Lost the first 2 games, and won 3 and 4 games, in short, I'm even in the series so far.

I'll still keep my faith in the Bucks, betting on them in game 5 with the spread of +4 and ML.

 I also want to believe that the game trend of home team winning in their court would change but Phoenix Suns really looked like they only lost to Bucks due to the home court factor last night.

I guess I'll just wait for the game to get close before deciding which way to go, Else I might switch to Over/Unders If I can't make a clear cut decision

Sure, as a bettor, you should not rush things out, we have plenty of time to analyze and look for the better value. As for me, I already mentioned in my past posts that I like the bucks to win so I'm betting on them all the way regardless of the point spread.

So it's 2/2 for us, been betting on the Bucks in the last 4 games and so far I would say that I won just a bit, because I put a higher bet on the last 2.

And since they are the underdogs in the next game, I will continue to bet on them, specially that money line, it's too attractive to pass on it.

Lock it in mate, I will also go for the under again, it will be pure defensive game, we can see the trend in the first quarter alone, if I'm not mistaken, both teams haven't score 60+ combine in the first quarter in this series and it's always been under.

Last time, I won a good amount betting on it, so I will continue it in the next game.

I get the point, if the Bucks will win on the road, game 5 is their best chance because they have the momentum already, if they lose here, people will doubt they would win in game 6 as just like what the Suns did to the Clippers, they can close out the series on the road. But then again, no one really knows what would happen, it's just our own prediction and speculation, and we could be wrong.

CP3 is a vet nothing to worry about there.  The game kind of went as I thought it would.  I mean no one thought the Suns were going to dis.antle them into a sweep.  Now we have a FINALS! I look for game 5 CP to control the flow of the game and deliver a win in a low scoring game.

As I was torn about who's really going to win this game 5, and I was really doubting the odds but as you have said, Chris Paul will sure make a big difference in game 5, and now that they are in their home court maybe things could be different, but that play from Giannis Antetokuonmpo after being in that bad injury was really amazing and judging from his speed he can sure isolate the whole court and take that crucial defense while handling down the offense to Middleton, but I think we can see a different story in game 5 and Chris Paul would sure shine once more, so for game 5 I will surely go with the odds.
CP3 might be a vet and experience player, but he hasn't been in the finals before, it's very different atmosphere and the pressure is doubled. But since it will be in the Phoenix Suns home court, it will be a different CP3 that we are going to see. His mid range could click this time and Giannis might have a hard time scoring and so is Middleton as the crowd will go against them. I will be on the Suns side on game 5.

Well apparently we can not know who's really going to win but this is up to them if who's really hungry for the championship, Chris Paul has done it in game 1 so I think he can surely execute it now that they are in a home-court advantage, Giannis can sure pop up again a performance but I think that the tandem of Devin Booker and Chris Paul may prevail and this is because of their supporters and the home-court advantage had proven so many uses in tactics, and I think they will use that now, and right now the odd is on a favor for the Suns with 1.59 to 2.44 for the Milwaukee Bucks on stake.com.
