Western Conference Round 2, Game 4: Nuggets (2-1) @ Suns (1-2), Sun 5/07/23

Post by Superbone »

Time: 5:00 pm AZ (5:00 pm PT/8:00 pm ET)
Place: Footprint Center, Phoenix, AZ
TV: TNT

The Suns took care of business Friday night after monster games from Book in particular and Durant. Plus, our bench started to get in a little bit of a groove. Deandre Ayton had a stinker and is looking to bounce back. We will see what kind of mental fortitude he possesses.

Payne seems to play better with the starters than with the bench. Also, our bench units tend to get in trouble.

So what if, whenever Paul comes back, we let Payne continue to start, and add Paul to those bench units so they don’t suck so much?

I don't think Chris Paul is coming back unless Booker continues to be Michael Jordan for the next two weeks.

For those of you wondering:



We need to be winning by 10 or more at the buzzer. Don't want to leave it to these guys to make a call.

Tony Brothers loves to whistle shooting fouls after the defense grabs the rebound.

Don't you just love those late calls? Seem like more than ever these days.

The Nuggets couldn't stop a nose bleed in Game 3 and looked pretty content with giving the Suns a win for significant stretches. Their postgame comments somewhat echoed that approach.

It's not going to be nearly as easy tonight. I'm expecting a lot more stuff to get the ball out of Bookers hands and trying to force the role players to make shots. I don't think there's really any chance the Suns with this game if KD has another bad shooting night or Ayton pussyfoots in the paint again. I'm especially expecting a bounce back game from Ayton and everyone should know the opportunities to impact the game will be there for him tonight.
