The Phoenix Suns are taking on the Milwaukee Bucks Tuesday in Game 6 in Milwaukee. The Milwaukee Bucks are currently up 3-2 in the series. The Milwaukee Bucks have won the last three games after Phoenix picked up the first two games of the series before Milwaukee took over.
The Phoenix Suns have received solid contributions from Booker and CP3 but the bench has been a major let down as of late which just mustered 15 points in their last game. Aside from the poor scoring from the bench, Phoenix needs to be more defensively sound if their going to force a game 7, as they are allowing an average of 117.3 points in this three game losing streak.
The Milwaukee Bucks have been operating on all fronts these past few games with contributions from Kris Middleton and Jrue Holiday relieving the workload from Giannis which has proved to be invaluable in their recent efforts. Bobby Portis Jr has really given Milwaukee an identity which they were sorely lacking in the beginning of this series.
The Bucks are in a prime position to win the series with home court advantage but I can't help but feel like the Suns drag this one out to a game 7. The Suns are unlikely to surrender 50% from the arc again although same can be said about Milwaukee. I'll be expecting Phoenix's defense to step up and return to form, as Jrue Holiday and Bobby Portis Jr continue to do his thing defensively to try and limit Booker and Paul.
