i'm your host, anthony anderson. [ cheers and applause ] and here we are, game six of the nba finals. milwaukee is one win away from their first championship in 50 years. whatever happens tonight, some cows are getting tipped. you know, milwaukee is known as "cream city." is it me, or does that sound kind of freaky to you? "man, i met up with this hottie last night, and we had a few drinks, and then she took me to cream city." [ laughter ] but over in phoenix, the suns changed the name of their stadium this weekend. it's now called "the footprint

center." yeah, which was inspired by the size 16 foot giannis stuck in their ass during game five. this was the play that sealed the deal. after stealing the ball from devin booker, jrue holiday dribbled the ball down court and hit giannis for the alley-oop, and the greek freak put it down like a dog in "old yeller." look at him. this is the face of a guy who just went to cream city. oh, yeah, baby. [ applause ] there was a lot going on in game five. one fan sitting courtside even snuck a whole bottle of tequila into the arena. and that fan was lebron james.
