Monty - the great motivator who can't motivate.

When you get crushed at home two years in a row in win-or-go-home games it's time to try something new.

Refs have it in for us. Not a fair fight. Everything in their favor. Everything. Jokic allowed to push Durant under the hoop.
I actually hope Denver wins it all. Sick of Warriors and no way Lakers. Malone can coach and I really like Jokic. The anti Diva
I'm not sure what that has to do with my post but OK.

Sure. Just play the starters 48 minutes.
Or just don't play the dude who's a -26....not rocket science
He's also -26 because of the guys he's playing with. Also not rocket science.

What strategy is Monty going with here. Fast? Small? Defense? Offense? I have no clue.
Neither does he

Not sure if I have it in me to watch the second half; there's an unfortunate morbid curiosity to me at this point, but that's about it.

Also, really hoping Kevin Durant isn't going on the pre-wash cycle.

Just really been a bizarre, exhausting series of events since game 2 of the 2021 NBA finals.

Are the Suns not playing hard?

It's not as bad as how it ended last year but not too far off.

The crowd is starting to (deservedly) boo the Suns. There are going to be big, big changes this offseason. Monty is probably out, Ayton and CP3 both may be gone. Our luck we'll get Head Coach Isiah Thomas and new PG of Kyrie Irving.

The shots going in for the Nuggets are actually comical at this point.

If we can just get this lead under 30, we have a chance in the 2nd half.

They should just turn this into a stunt game and set screens for Booker to get him open 3s every possession. Try to set the record for 3s in a playoff game. Make something positive out of this.

I think we're going to hold them under 85 in the first half.
