Western Conference Round 2, Game 6: Suns (2-3) @ Nuggets (3-2), Thu 5/11/23

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

I mean its borderline Pleasantville at this point with what is going in.

Ayton is probably going to be really bummed about this loss until his Zelda Tears of the Kingdom preorder shows up tomorrow.

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

[Flagrant Fowl]

Kevin Durant, Kevin Durant, Kevin Durant...?

I promise, he's not actually this bad.

[Superbone]

Can we at least not lose like last year?

Pretty similar actually other than missing 2/5 of our starters.

[JeremyG]

Would you look at that, Monty turned over the ball again!

Dude give it up.

Sounds like it is a masterpiece. I'm looking forward to it.

[The Bobster]

If you told me Payne would make 5 of 5 3's and 7 of 8 FG for 19 in the first half and that they'd still be down by 30, I would have laughed at you.

And then I would have remembered last year.

No he just doesn't adjust. That's why he gets out coached by Kidd,Lue,Budenholtzer, and Mike Malone. It's ultimately on the players but you have to bring a guy in here who doesn't have 13 man rotations at playoff time and play empty spaces that give you nothing in an elimination game.

It's also flat out on the coach to not have your team ready. IN ANY SPORT. Two straight closeout games...he's gotta get canned. Sorry.

I don't know... He should be playing Lee and Okogie more.

They all suck except for Booker. Get rid of all of them, especially Monty, except for Booker. What a bunch of surrender monkeys -- two embarassing elimination games in a row? Gawd awful.

[MightyMoog]

This is a fireable offense for Monty IMO.

[ShelC]

Doesn't matter who the coach is if this is the KD we're getting for the next 3 years.

[virtual9mm]

Doesn't matter who the coach is if this is the KD we're getting for the next 3 years.

If we trade him now we can still get 90 cents on the dollar.

[Superbone]

It's 11:30 for me. Trying to decide if I should just go to bed now or watch the 3rd quarter and see if they can get it under 20. Thoughts?

100% agree. Monty had a good run but he's clearly not the guy. Great dude. Just not a great coach.

[SunsRIt]

This is pathetic and embarrassing. That is all.

[JeremyG]

Al deserved better than this!

[SunsSince92]

We'll be lucky if Book doesn't ask for a trade after this. Only half joking...

[wpmiller42]

I do think KD isn't 100% healed from his knee injury. I think he'll be much better next season.
