Series Thread: Conference Semifinals: 1) Denver Nuggets vs. 4) Phoenix Suns

[DJ Fieri]

Suns in six.

Those scoffing at the Suns' bench clearly having been paying attention to the Nuggets all season long. Christian Braun who has hardly played this season, is currently our 8th man. Kid has a nice future but I have reservations on whether he's ready for the moment now.

Having or haven't, Mr writer?

Lets go Denver

I honestly can't decide who to root for. I like KD but he has rings. I like Jokic but not a lot. Not sure who will be easier to beat if either the Ws or the Lakers advance. Kinda want to see CP3 get a ring but not overly so.

The Suns in 5.

Got 3 extra pts and one less foul for Booker going ahead and taking that challenge. Hard to do better with it than that. A shame they had to use it though.

I have no reason to root for the “superteam” Phoenix

Denver playing some great ball

Im out so missing it but looks like jokic playing like a grown man on the glass while Ayton is playing like a puppy dog

Uh...

 

[msgkings322]

I guess I'll front run and root for Denver now (even though I picked Suns in 6) because the Suns made the finals recently and Denver never has

Yeah he is controlling the boards and playing good defense on Ayton. They gotta keep building the lead bc PHX can go on big runs

I took Suns in 6 too but rooting for Denver

If the Knicks +/or the Dubs somehow not reach the finals this year....I would have no problem with a Sixers-Nuggets series for the title.
I would love watching Embiid & Jokic battling it out on the biggest stage for the ultimate prize.

I said it before. No one is gonna beat this Denver team. Too deep too many weapons and healthy. Most important. Lakers and warriors and suns have just been feasting on teams riddled by injuries missing key guys

Nuggets in 5? Lol. Suns won’t win playing like this. Better slow Denver down some. Thinking this goes 6-7 games for sure

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

This just in....

Jamal Murray is hella fuckin good.

Dude's gotta be one of the top 5 Canadian born NBA players to make it in the NBA.

That’s like saying you went to a charm school in Arkansas

Sure...it's exactly just like that 1000%.....lol

Don't worry, bruh....SGA is on that short list too though.

 

[Shanemansj13]

Finish strong Denver. Assuming KD and Book play most of the 4th with a lack of bench. I’m just not sure they can keep it up for several long series. A lot of minutes and they lead all players in playoff mins

 

[Shanemansj13]

Unbelievable play by Murray
