I honestly haven’t watched any of this series after Game 1. Suns lack of depth was glaring. Was kinda surprised they tied it up 2-2. Suns best two players had too much pressure on them this year.

Murray flu game

Ayton is all giddy and enjoying life right now (on the inside).

Bruce Brown certainly is the guy who seems to keep that 2nd unit in check... or really the unit when Jokic is out of the game. It's an interesting role for him for sure. He's been really solid for Denver... it will be a big pay day for him this summer I'd assume.

2 blowout wins at home in an elimination game is not a good look for the team and monty. don't think he survives this.

He's their berzerker

He can no longer sustain against physical playoff defenses. Man's 34 turning 35 this year. Not everybody is Lebron

Bad news for the other team if Murray starts cooking like this

Theyre beating down a team with no depth and missing 2 max players. like 70 million in salary in Cp3 and Ayton their 3rd and 4th best players.

Denver isnt looking like this VS La or Gs

he also fumbled a rebound that lead Suns' two free throws ... so sloppy for a seasoned Vet...

He tries hard but Jokic will eat him for lunch.

If Ayton tried as hard as Landale does he might have been able to do at least a bit of damage.

On offense, for sure. He is. Hakeem could control a game on either end, though. An entire game. I'm not saying one or the other is better overall. Two of my four favorite players ever.

Why isn't Jokic in?

Cam Payne is carrying the Suns with his archery shooting motion.

if you never watched the nba and just picked this game to be your first, you'd think cameron payne is worth 4 first round picks.

Aaron Gordon would be flipping burgers if he wasn’t 6-8. Never seen someone look so much like they don’t know how to play basketball

Who wins?
