The Nuggets in 6.

The Suns are are more talented team, but younger and less experienced and the Nuggets have the coaching edge as well. The Suns are like the Blazers only the Suns actually play defense. Ayton is a very tough match up for Joker, but the Nuggets have options -if Joker starts hitting 3s Ayton will have to come out and Jokers assists will go up. If Ayton get in foul trouble the Suns don't have a 2nd one of those. Also Chris Paul seems to be playing injured.

Joker - Porter and Monte Morris all have big series.

What fans and critics are missing about the Nuggets is that Facu and Rivers are good players despite their pedigrees and these Nuggets don't believe anyone is better than them. The pressure is on the Suns to perform and they are the ones who have the least amount of player Playoff game experience - by far. Utah is going to be a tougher opponent - by far.

Bench is the wildcard for Nuggets in this series. I still say SWEEP by Suns

Yea, Jazz don’t matter. Nuggets won’t be playing in West Finals.

The view from Greece says so.

The Nuggets stand a great chance against the Suns as long as they stop the game halfway through the 3rd quarter before the Nuggets have a chance to blow the game.

Typically take out the 3rd quarter of every game and they would have the best record in the NBA. Not sure why that’s the case, but they struggle in the 3rd.

The 1st game was a "let's see what they got." The winner learns nothing in game one. Still Nugs in 6.

Nuggets have joker and mpj and a bunch of scrubs who can’t score. Not playing at full strength vs Suns.

I still have a picture of a resiliant Nugget team and don't believe the Suns are as good a team as the scores in the first two games may indicate. Maybe the model here will be like last year's Clippers series.

Well - I'm impressed with the Suns and my fellow fans here who spotted what was about to happen. Still - it is not over - until it is over with the Nuggets.

I sure didnt see a 3-0 lead. Thought denver would at least make it a slugfest.

The Nuggets can't play well together on constant basis and add no Murray I saw sweep. The Suns can score defend. Its been Joker and nobody. MPJ is a talent but, is he mentally soft too many MIA games Gordon too. What moves do you think they need to make this off season.

I'm 50/50 on Malone like him but, I'm not sure he's the guy to get Nuggets to next level.

Barton and Murray makes this a series
MPJ is too inconsistent to be counted on
Can’t really create his own shot like Murray
Murray by himself last year took over games.

Suns are like 6th in D this year
Blazers 29th

that’s the main difference

Avs were far more disappointing than Nugz

1. I don’t believe MPJ is 100% healthy - and this is the first year he has ever played extended minutes, so he is also not mentally sharp.
2. He’s young and will be a great third star on the team - unless he surpasses Murray as #2.

I’m high on him - and high on the team’s future. I think Gordon will find his role working with Jokic much better next year.
