[Superbone]

Well, I guess we’re not going to sweep them this time.

Math checks out.

This bitch has 0 blocks and 7 rebounds jogging back on D all game saying he’s a Tesla battery

[Flagrant Fowl]

For Saucy.

For Saucy.

My wife and I both said what the fuck out loud several times that play. Thank you for letting me relive that moment again.

[Shabazz]

Monty’s adjustments today: More Landry, fewer 3s.

For Saucy.

Fucking loser just staring, too much weed in his system he’s three steps slow and lacking two testicles but he’s got the mouth of a champion

[virtual9mm]

I don't expect the Suns to win 4 out of the next 6 against this Nuggets team.

Jokic and Murray won't have trouble matching Booker and KD, and the Nuggets depth and continuity are too much to handle for the rest of the Suns role players.

Loving the overreactions. But this will be series, not a walk in the park.

[Wally_West]

I don’t even get big using one or two of Payne, TJ or ross. Only people on the bench that’s capable of even creating their own shot. There’s no fucking reason to play Shamet over them. I thought we were fucking done of him to be honest.

This dork needs to shut the hell up and go to unreasonably optimistic land with Flex.

Nothing new this game. This is how we played against LA except we just happened to win because they were missing their two best players.

It’s time for Monty to coach his team, stop letting Landry get onto the court, call out DA not up, and fucking win

An observation, not an overreaction.

An overreaction would be the Nuggets will win in 5 or fewer. (Might happen, but I’m not saying that now at all.)

Is Landry going to end up costing Monty his job?

Damn!

[Flagrant Fowl]

I'm not going to defend Landry as something he's not, but the problem was on the defensive side in the second quarter and there's no one on the bench to replace him that would've remedied that issue.

[Uncle_Gene]

The 2nd quarter was as bad as it gets. Terrence Ross needs to play over Shamet, and Ayton needs to step up defensively.

[JeremyG]

In 30 years of listening to Al McCoy, I don't know if I can recall ever hearing him criticize the Suns' coaching before or be irritated with the Suns' coach: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2750&p=280470#p280470 (last part of the clip).

[JeremyG]

For Saucy.

Incrediby disingenuous to start the clip there when Ayton is the one who caused the missed shot in the first place: https://www.nba.com/stats/events/?CFID= ... ng%20Layup
