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

KD ain't going 2 for 12 from 3 next game

Yeah but Murray isn’t going 3 for 15 from the field either.

Denver is going to be tough the way they are playing. Joker is amazing.

All Denver did was hold serve.

3 days off now so hopefully CP3 groin isn't too bad and he is a go for friday

We've seen this story before though. Once Paul gets hurt in the playoffs, its always a thing

CP done for the night

I thought Durant and Booker would do enough to carry them home. They missed too many threes.

LeBron, Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler, whatever...

2023 NBA Champs will reside in the Rocky Mountains.

Fight me.

Suns could've used that one tonight after they missed out in game 1.
Now they're in trouble...but they're heading home for 2 games, tho if the Nugs get a split in the desert heading back to Denver up 3-1, it'll pretty much be done.

No matter what happens I think a lot of us jump the gun on Phoenix. They may win but they are not significantly better than other teams left

Sure looks that way. When healthy, their starting 5 is as good or better than just about any other starting 5 in the league...but it cost them their bench.

It's similar to the Lakers with Westbrook. Him not being a good fit was already a problem and it was made worse because they had no depth.

Not having CP3 is going to be an issue because without him, the ball stops moving and it's just KD and Booker just taking turns running iso's.

Anyone else look at that picture and see Augustus Gloop?

Nuggets are playing great. They’re showing that working inside a team concept >>>> isolation hero ball and no team cohesion.

Shutup Pacer fan, you don't get to dick ride a different team because your team sucks. Bandwagon fans are the worst.

Jokic didn't score 40. He sucks.

 

[Wamu]

Not good for the Suns that the Nuggets won and Murray had a terrible game. He won't have another game like that in this series.

 

[HurricaneDij39]

Officially going to Game 3… Prepared to give Suns fans the Marcus Morris 3-0 sign if we win.

Except for the part I also rooted for Denver during the Brian Shaw era you clueless naive bastard.

When the trade went down I said the Suns bench was a weakness.....

I was told no.....I love it when I am right.

Pump the breaks.

You were told it was good enough assuming the stars stay healthy and play well.

Doesn’t look like that is the case.

Even when healthy....it is garbage
