Out of all people it is not his fault. He has 2 players on the roster, and even they didn't show up today.
It is amazing that they even won 2 games after Paul went down.

I'm not only one that was saying it. Suns needed to stay completley healthy to have any chance to win the title. When you rely on 3.5 players, you need them to play every night and to preform every night. The moment CP3 went down(yes even this version of him), made it that Book and KD have to carry even more(and they already had to do too much). After some point you get gassed.

Congratulations to the Nuggets, they completley deserved it, Jokic us a **** monster. Lets just hope they get a reasonably fair whistle against Lakers.

For all the talk of the Denver depth being the difference, swap Jokic and KD and its role reversal. Does anyone thing Denver would still win the series?

Suddenly Terrance Ross and Josh Okogie would look like solid role players and Denver’s offence reverts to KD/Murray isos. Jokic is the complete difference maker here

Nick Nurse is going to have his pick of failed playoff teams after this season's over.

This is stunning that this is happening to PHX again. I'm starting to wonder will Monty survive this even with the injuries to Paul and Ayton. I mean the Bucks fired Bud and he won a ring.

Is this consecutive years for the Suns getting absolutely boat raced at home in an elimination game? Luka somewhere smiling

So Monty has to be gone after this loss, right? Barring some sort of miracle comeback by the Suns I doubt he makes it to the end of the week.

Monty might be a worse elimination game coach than rivers.

Doc might lose games, but Monty gets blown out of games.
