Looking at this Suns roster it actually feels like they overachieved by getting to this point

Denver better not blow this fking lead. Jokic is a true MVP. Don't let the media control you about "blocking shots" by other players so somehow they're better. We watched Boston/Philly.

Denver went on a 16-0 or 17-0 run after Kd went to the bench
This series is over. If Book and Kd arent have historic duo nights this team has literally 0 chance of winning a game.

Looks like this game may already be over. Of course there's still plenty of time, but the Nuggets are simply good for this Suns team.

Seems like the only thing that has kept this series close has been Booker's GOAT level scoring.

Re: 2023 West Semifinals | (1) Denver Nuggets VS (4) Phoenix Suns (Denver leads 3-2)
So the question is how is KD going to force a trade to the Nuggets next season?

We are gonna look back years from now and question how embiid won mvp over jokic. Similar to lebron/rose in 2011 and Russ/ harden in 2017

Denver already over halfway to Philly's point total in 1 quarter.

Interesting. The strategy of Booker and KD dropping 70+ on video game efficiency might not happen for the 3 straight home game.

We are gonna look back years from now and question how on earth embiid won mvp over jokic. Similar to lebron/rose in 2011 and Russ/ harden in 2017

Consider that.

Series isn't over but I have to hand it to Denver they could very well take this.
If this ends tonight would anybody consider that Durant trade a failure?

For all the people who wanted the Suns to bench Ayton, you're seeing what that means now.

If u give up 44 points in a quarter you deserve to lose.
