Why the Milwaukee Bucks will win
The Bucks seem to have better spacing and ball movement when the “Greek Freak” is not on the ground. I would never say the Bucks are a better basketball team without Giannis. But seeing is believing. After some great early performances, the Bucks adjusted their pick and roll defenses well against Trae Young, who was clearly not 100% in the Eastern Conf rankings. Final. In 17 playoff games, the Bucks had a difference of +6.1 points. They averaged 109.8 points per game (10th) while allowing 103.7, taking 2nd place against a much simpler schedule than Phoenix. With or without a Giannis, this is a deep and talented list. Winning the Bucks series in six or seven games wouldn’t be shocking. The Bucks are 58-31 SU and 42-47 ATS in a weak conference this season.
Why the Phoenix Suns will win
The suns have no weaknesses right now and the home advantage will help too. This team is fast, long, hungry and their team chemistry is wrong. The Suns played in the very tougher Western Conference which is not news. Phoenix is currently 63-25 SU and 53-33-2 ATS. That ATS number is ridiculously good and the suns have exceeded expectations all season. Do the bookmakers respect the suns? We will see. The Suns are in second place in 16 games this postseason in points difference (+7.0). They averaged 108.9 points per game (11th), while allowing 101.9 points per game, which is # 1 in the postseason.

Sun head-to-head against Bucks
The Suns won both games with 1 point as four-point home dogs and three-point street losers. Giannis had 80 points in the two games together. If he’s out / planed for this series, the Bucks will be in serious trouble. Serial price: Phoenix Suns -190, Milwaukee Bucks +170
The choice: Phoenix Suns -190
The Suns have number 1 in defense, the number 1 ATS record for quite some time, Chris Paul, Devin Booker, Deandre Ayton, Bridges, Crowder. Add on rising talents Cameron Johnson and Cameron Payne. Saric and Craig can keep up too. This is a deep, talented, long team that comes in waves. Wings that can shoot and defend. You can switch any pick and roll. To me, this team seems to be on a mission. For Chris Paul or whatever, they are highly motivated, healthier and the more talented team. Not sure how many games, but I’m taking the Suns to win the NBA final at -190. If Giannis is close to 100%, the series will be much closer, but still based on the suns.
