More than fifty years apart from one another, the Milwaukee Bucks now stand as two-time NBA champions.

That’s obviously thanks to this 2020-21 Bucks team delivering another title to the organization and the city of Milwaukee following their 105-98 Game 6 victory over the Phoenix Suns in the NBA Finals.

The stars certainly aligned for the Bucks to reach the top of the mountain a half-century after their first championship that was won during the 1970-71 season where they finished with a 66-16 record and swept the Washington Bullets in four games during that season’s NBA Finals.
