By Carlos Chacon

As the NBA Finals series heads back to Milwaukee, the Bucks will try to put an end to their 50-year run without a Championship. The Eastern Conference No. 3 seed team is a win away from the title after winning Game 5 in a 123-119 thriller. Despite training 0-2 at the start of the series, the Bucks recorded three consecutive wins to take a 3-2 lead over the Suns. In the wake of a hard-fought win in front of the Phoenix crowd, Mike Budenholzer and company take home court advantage and a chance to close Game 6 at the Deer District.

Meanwhile, following two exemplary wins to open their first NBA Finals appearance in 28 years, the Phoenix Suns now find themselves in a do-or-die situation. This is the first time the team is down three games since the start of the playoffs, and Monty Williams will have to pull out all the tricks under his sleeve to survive this road game and force a Game 7.

Suns vs. Bucks Game 6 Information

Why Bet on the Phoenix Suns?

The Phoenix Suns find themselves in a rut after losing three consecutive games for the first time in the postseason. They took off on a high note and were the favorites to win the Finals, but their overall performance started to decline In Game 5, the Suns went up 37-21 after the first quarter and looked unstoppable.

However, the team couldn’t handle the pressure as they gave up the lead just before halftime, making only 35% of their shots in the second quarter. Once again, turnovers prevented the Suns from pulling away in Game 5. The team recorded eight turnovers in Game 5, while the Bucks capitalized on the opportunities and scored 17 points.

With the NBA Finals on the line, everyone is looking at Chris Paul and what he can do to stretch the series and stay in contention. While Devin Booker put up another 40 point game against the Bucks, it’s Paul’s experience that can make all the difference. In Game 6, the ‘Point God’ recorded 21 points, 11 assists, and 2 rebounds. Despite having a streak of poor nights, the 36-year-old point guard did well to bounce back. Ultimately, his presence is crucial in guiding the Suns to a win on Tuesday night.

Why Bet on the Milwaukee Bucks?

The Milwaukee Bucks are on a roll after securing three consecutive wins to make the comeback from being down 0-2 for the second time in the playoffs. They started slow but now showcase tremendous on-court tactics and wise decisions to adjust to the Suns’ offensive threat. At the moment, they dominate the series in rebounds and assists, averaging 45 and 23.6 per game, respectively.

Their presence in the paint allowed them to overcome their opponents in the last three games as well as significant scoring coming from the bench. If they can continue to take advantage of second-chance points, turnovers, and points in transition, there’s a good chance that they close the series in front of their home crowd.

Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton have been the heart and soul of the Bucks’ offensive line, but we anticipate Jrue Holiday to make all the difference for his team in Game 6. The guard from the New Orleans Pelicans continues to prove his worth to the team after stepping up on both ends of the floor in Game 5. He scored 27 points on 60% shooting, handed out 13 assists, and made three steals, which includes a critical one on Devin Booker in the dying seconds of the fourth quarter to seal the win for the Bucks.
