Jokic vs Ayton is the real deal.

Barton is game to game. Dozier is further away.

Further away? Like not this series?

Morris is the straw that stirs the drink.

Porter can ball for sure...

If he could cut down on the heat checks and improve his dribble a bit I think he's an All-NBA player.

MPJ looking a lot more comfortable so far. Portland was smothering him all series.

Chris Paul still doesn't look good and the Suns defense is casual. Denver looks way more ready to play.

Didn't expect the Suns to play awful D but I guess they turn it around 2nd half

Small Ball working for the Nuggs

Suns need to keep spreading out DEN when Suns are on offense. They're getting wide open threes.

Denver getting things done with Facu, Markus Howard, Austin Rivers, Millsaps corpse...it’s really amazing to witness

CP3 & Booker are not outplaying the Nuggets' guards.

One thing that's surprised me in these playoffs is teams seem to be speeding up the tempo in the postseason. Usually it's the opposite of that.

Further away? Like not this series?

“PJ and Will, right now, were able to go through parts of practice today,” coach Michael Malone told reporters Saturday. “Will has been doing that. That was a first for PJ. So, there is definitely hope and optimism that they will be available at some point during the series. … I’m not ruling out Will Barton for Game 1. We’ll have to see how the next 48 hours go. But there is a chance that he could play, and maybe, there is a chance that PJ Dozier at some point in this series will be available as well.”

Denver probably has the best young core in the league between Jokic, Murray, MPJ

If Porter outplays Booker in the series, Suns are going home

DEN's scrub crew (Facu, Rivers, etc) are gritty as hell. They're fighters.

POR tore them apart with size. PHX doesn't have as much size to hurt the small DEN guys on defense.

Why call that on Millsap? smh

Wow more AWFUL fouls in favor of the Suns. My god. Atrocious.
