PHOENIX - When Devin Booker took his usual seat on the bench at the beginning of the second quarter, the Phoenix Suns lost their stranglehold on Game 5 of the NBA Finals. Booker had scored 11 points and the Suns built a 16-point lead on Saturday night against the Milwaukee Bucks. By the time Booker returned with 6:14 left in the second, the Suns’ lead had nearly disappeared. Phoenix looked stagnant on offence, relying on Booker to generate offence by himself. Coach Monty Williams likes to call it a 0.5 second offence because he wanted a pass, shot or drive within a half second.
