Time: 7:00 pm AZ (6:00 pm PT / 9:00 pm ET)
Place: Pepsi Center, Denver, CO
TV: FSAZ/NBALP

Murray is out for the Nuggets and Chriss is out for the Suns. The good news is TJ is back. Let's see if we can play decent defense for more than a quarter and a half.

Go Suns!!!

I just don't want to see Gary Harris, even though he is far better than Devin Booker :roll: , going off again on the Suns. At least this time there isn't an exhausted Suns team who played the night before and had lack of sleep from airplane problems playing tonight.

Yeah, too bad about all the injuries but this team is rested for sure. Maybe playing the most games of any team before this recent slowdown did them in but now they're getting large breaks between games. After tonight, we don't play until Monday.

Too much of a break is also not good sometimes. Rust. It will be nice to have Warren back. What’s their record without him?

Booker has played some solid off-ball D on Harris during the last few possessions. And had an amazing defensive stop against Harris during a one-on-one break.

Even when Bender plays good D, he ALWAYS seems to get scored on =/

Booker just missed the easiest shot he has ever had in the NBA

He was clearly watching for it on both possessions. The second time Harris faked backdoor but Booker read it and still stuck with him.

Len has become much, much better at passing to the corners on the move out of the pick and roll.

It really is nice to watch him find the open guy instead of forcing it.

No sign of Jackson in the 1st. Maybe just because TJ had it rolling.

I really like seeing him play in this lineup with Booker and Dudley. Dudley has already directed him on offense twice with good results.
