2023 West Semifinals | (1) Denver Nuggets VS (4) Phoenix Suns (Series tied 2-2)

[ArksNetsSince99]

Not surprised at all with the score so far tonight. I'm still picking the Suns to win the West.

It’s You Chuck?

[Sharkboy242]

Oof. Refs put the nuggets into foul trouble 3 minutes into the quarter which forced our defense to let up.

[Patches Perry]

I said after the first game that Durant and Booker would have to combined for 70 to win games. Still feels that way. On pace for 96 points tonight, and up double digits to show for it.

[AleksandarN]

I call a 16pt 3rd from Jokic. Nuggets down only by 5 at the end of 3rd.

[GSP]

Suns had more bench points in the 1st quarter than they did all of game 2 LMAOOOOO

Monty is an alltime bad playoff coach. How do you Dnp Tj Warren and Terence Ross when theyre packing the paint and loading up their entire defense on 2 guys and keeping Shamet, Okogie, Ayton and Craig out there?

Wow! Make sure you bookmark this post because you would be an absolute legend

there is nothing more to say.
main problem has been pace too.
with cp3 there is no disruptive chaos which leads to collapsing defenses.

Delusional. Cp3 is done and their bench is ass.

Betting on the Suns means youre betting on Book and Kd to have a better playoff run than 01 Kobe/Shaq and average 65-70 points as a duo in absurd efficiency

When Malone told the reporter after Q1, "We gotta be more physical," I thought, "I hope he didn't tell his players that," because I knew the riggedness that would result.

[cam24thomas]

We are witnessing the greatest duo performance in NBA history!

Booker and Scott Foster?

Seriously though KD got a lot of FTAs. ScooterFooster doing yeoman's work

Interesting to see if KD gets a 40-point-triple-double and Booker gets a 50, but will only happen if Denver keep it close to force stars to stay on the court.

Very very good point. Chris Paul is the slow, methodical bring the ball up the court and let’s get setup type

[NirvanaFC]

NBA is so predictable, these are some soft ass calls for a **** playoff game

[Tor_Raps]

Sorry but KD has gotten whistles because he's too weak to absorb contact. No reason why he has 12 FTs alone while Denver has 4 as a team...

[JDR720]

Denver are still in a decent position. Gordon hasn't done anything and the Suns are playing like a 2 man team. Joker needs to look to score more instead of passing to Porter though.

[BoatsNZones]

cjx do you have a bot running this through the playoffs? I know you've been doing this for years but damn brother the +1 is so quick it's odd. Your significant other for sure does not like playoff season.

I do recall your post in the "have you ever played with another NBA player thread" though, and respect is due if so. A true baller. I played with some great NCAA talents in the early 2000's and a couple eventual NBA players (all off-season true pickup games with athletes at school), but that's another level.

[schnakenpopanz]

ft differential is 12 to 5.
if someone reads this topic they would be thinking 22 to3 or something...
get over it, play better dense.
be more aggressive.
that's what i heard in the first two games in denver.

Guess you are watching reruns of the Boston tea party and not this series

Suns have 3 players getting minutes , spreading the floor a and the bench is different now

[One Last Shot]

Booker will break the 63 points Playoffs record tonight by MJ.

He was just falling into people for the first few fouls. I turned it off, so I'm not sure about the later ones.
