Jrue Holiday made a spectacular steal with the game up for grabs Saturday to lift the Milwaukee Bucks over Phoenix and within one game of their first NBA title since 1971.
The 31-year-old guard, coming off a woeful 4-of-20 shooting effort in game four, hit 12-of-20 in a 123-119 victory to give Milwaukee a 3-2 edge in the best-of-seven NBA Finals, which continue Tuesday in Milwaukee.
