You would you think that DEN was the team getting blown out. Why are the starters still in?

It's the only positive for the Suns. Just secured a contract though so great for him.

Malone is about as old school a coach as you can get. Doesn't want to jinx anything.


If he’s worried about jinxes he should be more concerned about Joker getting hurt during garbage time.

Not the most competitive series in the world but it was still a fun watch. Some all-time stretches from Booker and just an all-time series from Jokic.
