The NBA Finals are underway as the Milwaukee Bucks take on the Phoenix Suns. Given the number of shocking results these NBA playoffs have produced, this matchup between the Bucks and the Suns is must-see TV.

While the two teams are well-matched on paper, it clearly hasn’t been the case in the first two games. In the first game of the series, the Suns blew past the Bucks who welcomed talisman Giannis Antetokounmpo back from injury.

Game 2 looked like the perfect game for Giannis and the Bucks to make a comeback. The ‘Greek Freak’ lived up to his billing as he put up 42 points along with 12 rebounds, but with lackluster performances from the supporting cast, the Bucks lost the game 118-108.

This recent loss for the Bucks was certainly a tough pill to swallow. Given how special of a performance Giannis had, other stars like Jrue Holiday and Khris Middleton were disappointing in game 2.

Former NBA champion Kendrick Perkins was certainly not the biggest fan of the Bucks’ recent collapse. In a recent appearance at ESPN, Big Perk slammed the Bucks and called them out as the dumbest team in Finals history.

The former Celtics’ forward was also all praises for the Suns as well. “These are guys on this Phoenix Suns team that have zero playoff experience when I say this, this is their first time this is their first go around in the playoffs, and then I’ll play in the Milwaukee Bucks. The Milwaukee Bucks play the most disturbing basketball in Finals history. It’s disturbing to see.”

In the first two games, the Bucks certainly haven’t shown their full potential. Milwaukee certainly looks clueless for now but they have shown incredible resolve in the playoffs.

Given how they came back from a 2-0 deficit against the Nets, the Bucks will look to tie the series by winning the next two games. If Milwaukee don’t win the next game, it might well be over for Giannis and Co. Who will conquer the NBA this season, the Suns or the Bucks?
