Suns win game 4?

**IBetYou** · 07-15-21, 02:08 AM

Only watched the 4th Q. About 4 or 5 calls where nothing happened. JVG saying you can't appear to be fouling. What the penetrate?! You gotta play soft in case the ref makes a bad call? Stupid league. All to do with money I expect. Player contracts are incentivised by stats and defensive fouls means stats. What a culture.

I get why people say it's fixed. You give the refs that much leeway... they have a lot of control in a tight game.

Suns are soft. Chris Paul and Crowder are floppers, just waiting for bailouts. Jrue Holiday abused Paul, he couldn't get by him. Ayton is weak down low. If Holiday shows up more offensively next, phx will be in trouble.

Middleton taking 33 shots was a huge surprise. I figured 24 max. He hit big shots in the 4th.

Game 4 was certainly the Suns' to win. They blew it. Booker's foul trouble ruined 'em -he's always been a poor defender. Has the size & athleticism for it but has poor technique/ doesn't know the rules. I think Paul will steel them for a game 5 bounce back. Think Ayton will elevate his play. Don't think the Bucks win again in this series.

Having said that the NBA would love a game 7. They're tired of hearing about the ratings...

Great performance by Paul 😂 I see this is why you hang out from the rafters in some of the other threads.

Giannis legacy on the line this series.

Paul is an all time great, but Giannis has the chance to be one of the best ever, like top 20.

I do not see him losing.

Suns players besides Paul haven't paid their dues. Just a bunch of rookies.

Bucks are full of bums

Connaughton
Tucker
Lopez

You see those guys holding the trophy?

Devin Booker 3p prop is only 2.5

Tucker has been in the playoffs his whole career, so has Lopez. They've both made deep runs. Lopez was considered one of the best big men in the league, he came to the Bucks and took a tiny role. He hits 3s and blocks shots. Veterans usually do their job.

I just think the Bucks are too physically strong at every position. They weigh more and are taller at every single position. 1-5.

It is a toss up now with slight advantage to home team.

Not much separating them.

And it appears that the books have taken heed.
