Or a good sign that we are hanging around with KD struggling, he can definitely improve 2nd half

No Shamet minutes is a win in my book. We start hitting shots we almost always make and we'll be fine.

who would have thought that not playing shamet would lead to this?

The effort is night and day

Ayton’s defense is much better tonight. He’s doing a really good job on Jokic even off the ball.

Jokic is actually asking for screens to get Ayton off him.

So why can't D.A play like this all the time?

Monty saving him for the 2nd half.

If we hit even slightly below our average on FGs, we'd be in solid control here.

We finally started to cover the offball movement better later in the Q.
No Shamet
A lot of threes
A lot of hustle.

im satisfied so far

if suns play defense like this they should eventually win

Whenever they show that Durant highlight reel on NBA league pass, I can't help but wish he was 5 years younger now

We have to stay nasty and physical in the second half if porter and Gordon can beat you so be it

Thumbs up to Lee, his energy on defense is great

I like this hard grind

- Much more effort from Ayton
- KD is super cold but we are up 2, he will stat cookinh in second half, he is very good in rebounding and deffence
- Booker found back his shooting form from Clippers series
- We are much better on boards and hustle plays

Monty doing a good job confusing the Nuggets. I’m still confused by him playing Ish in the first half!

Ayton is a one man wrecking crew. Give the man another contract extension.

Win or lose I just want to see the same intensity 2nd half. Just need to steal one in Denver
