If DA can keep a hand in Joker's face, the sweep is our. Jokic will be taking every shot, forced or not, he can. His forced shooting was **** today and I'll happily give him 35 points again because I know it'll take him 30 shots to get there if DA can keep that hand in his face.

They'll occasionally hit their 3's, but I'm confident we'll get equal or greater than them.

Pretty confident we close out tomorrow. The home crowd will be deflated by going down 3-0, they'll know the odds and I think if the Suns go ahead by 12-14 (which we've done in every game so far) they'll just pack it in.

I have to admit I'm surprised, I definitely thought we were the better team, but thought the series would go 6. But Denver has just had no answers. It doesn't even feel like the Suns are doing anything particularly special, it's just the Nuggets have no ability to stop us.

I expect a bit of a run in teh first quarter tomorrow from the Nuggets. Its win or stay in Denver and start fishing. But if the Suns can kind of be close at the end of the 1st quarter, at worst halftime. I think they can take Game 4. If the Suns are winning at halftime, I think its done

As for the Nuggets - yes, Barton is still not 100% in shape; they miss Murray of course. But this team cannot play defense.

I had a feeling that we'd come to play against Denver. The Lakers were the #1 defense this year despite their injuries and were our worst matchup in the West size-wise, and we were able to handle them with CP3 clearly not playing at this level with his shoulder. We match up a lot better with Denver, although it would've been a much more interesting matchup with Murray out there.

It'd be great to close this out in Denver and have a couple extra days to get everyone rested and up to 100%. I don't want to give them any hope for a comeback, even if it's never been done before. Hopefully the Clippers and Jazz series can go for 6 or 7 games too.

I've been expecting the Nuggets to come out swinging in every game since we won Game 1. Hasn't happened yet. I think they know they're beaten, and while I understand they are professionals, it's hard to not let the doubt creep in.

What's been different about this series than most playoff series is it's been 3 consecutive blow outs. Denver hasn't even been able to stay close late in a game, that's really deflating. At least if you're losing by 3,4,5 points you're thinking we just need to make a couple more plays and we can snag a game and get back into this series. They have had no answers. At all. It doesn't even look like they've made things difficult for us for any prolonged stretch. Jokic had a true MVP night and they still got crushed. So when you're making adjustments, and doing everything you can to try to plug the leaks and still losing by 14....it kind of just sinks in that the outcome of the series is inevitable.

The Suns came out leading 21-8 last night and making the first punch despite being on the road set the tone to the game (especially with Joker receiving the MVP).

If they grab a double digit lead in the first Q in Game 4, the Nuggets will fold.

[ATTL]

I think game 3 was their best punch. First game with their fans, MVP ceremony, played super hard and still lost by 14. Nuggets players sounded defeated in post game. Only way the suns lose game 4 is if they lose focus.
