The young and talented Suns team is everybody's favorite to take home the 2021 NBA Championship.

But not everyone has counted out the Bucks just yet.

Even with a hobbled Giannis, and being down 0-1, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar picked Milwaukee to win the series in six games, as he boldly claimed in a video he posted on Twitter.

"Some 50-odd years ago, the Bucks and the Suns flipped a coin to see who would get the opportunity to draft me. This time, I'm taking charge of it -- Bucks in six. Fear the deer!"

Of course, Kareem picked against the Bucks just a few months ago, saying they did not have what it takes to win a Championship.

As a former player for the organization, it came as quite a shock to a lot of people.

But considering the path Milwaukee has taken (series wins over Miami, Brooklyn, and Atlanta), it's fair to say that they've proven themselves as legitimate contenders.

The job, though, is not yet finished. The Bucks still have a lot of work to do if they want to prove their superstar right. 

If they're able to pull it off, it will be their first Championship since Kareem himself won one in 1971.
