It’s all calculated, PHX already breathing thru their sleeves

...What? He's not even top 10 for free throw attempts this season.

KD doesn't get to the line nearly at the rates he used to when he was a much younger player. He largely scores off of his incredible shot-making.

Do the people that comment in this thread just start watching basketball yesterday? What are these awful takes.

And mine about this game being the most likely of the series to have some hardcore NBA rigging.

We don't need a segment on Cameron Payne.

Jokic's pass was so good Brown didn't catch it and he still caught it.

Cam pushes the ball with really good pace...

Another game where Denver is bad from 3

JJ or RJ makes a good point. Denver has no shot blocking yet the Suns are taking mid range shots. This is a coaching issue. Durant and Booker should be driving every time. Mix in some pick and roll with Ayton.

Where is joker to take over on offense

Denver is playing right into Phoenix’s hands. They’re daring them to shoot these contested 3’s and Denver continues to do it (and brick them all). They need to run more sets and get the ball moving more. Set more back screens. Attack the basket, etc. Malone needs to be a better coach here and adjust.

Booker's their best player. Feed the beast.

Edit: Watching on stream and Book cleaned the last 5 points into the TO. Bang.

Book's coming for Lebron's all time scoring record

Sometimes i think Booker makes tougher shots than Kobe did

Imagine getting caught for juicing, missing 25 games or whatever it was, and for all that playing so soft.

What was the point?

Too bad it didn't make Ayton's mentality and game tougher.

Jokić has to take it over from now on

Shooting a ridiculous 57% in the playoffs
