Considering how this game was going, to be down 3 at the half is a fucking win.


If you we lose, you can’t point your finger at one person, Kevin Durant. Absolute garbage performance so far. We could actually be up by a decent margin if was just playing average.

3/12 is unacceptable here.

I think you don’t play Okogie for the rest of the game. Have Shamet or TJ start in 2nd half and probably going to have to lean on them.

Better 2nd qtr but still a lot of missed opportunities. KD needs to keep attacking, get the mismatch on KCP and defer when he's got AG on him. Murray's ankle was really bothering him but we didn't exploit it, something to watch for in the 2nd half. Offensive rebounds are killing us and DA is battling but mostly invisible. Just need the bench to step up - TJ and Ross need to let it fly.

Monty listened.

Horrible 3rd quarter so far. Everything is falling for the Nuggets, and we're playing your-turn my-turn offense. No ball movement, few screens, few passes. Bunch of contested shots.

Ugh. Might have to turn this off early. One of the most disappointing games I’ve seen. Considering the stakes. Just disgusting.

Suns played like ass in first half other than Book and somehow were within 3. Thought that was a great sign. They somehow cdme out worse in the 3rd...wtf did we do in the locker room?
