It felt like a home game for the Suns with the crowd cheering them so loud. That must have really pissed of the Nuggets. The Suns feel disrespected by the media but, their national fan base is growing.
There is a silver lining I think to being the #1 team all year. Every team they played treated the game as a playoff game and brought their A game. It’s almost like they have already have their playoff groove.

Oh right
Peep back at some highlights and just remembered I was to mention the lil dude courtside in the Booker jersey. He got dapped up after Book first jumper and that kid was hyped all game lol.
He had the time of his life man
I noticed that kid too. It was funny how he was standing for most of the game. Had to be the night of his short life so far.

I fucking love this team. It is my favorite Suns team ever.
There is nothing else I can add. The feelings I got when Book was getting MVP chants and a "Let's Go Suns" chant ON THE FUCKING ROAD was unbelievable.
I've been watching the Suns for a LONG time.
That's the first time something like that has happened ... fans on the road chanting for the Suns, arguably as loud as fans cheering the home team.
The Nuggets issue with getting their games on local TV has been pretty well reported recently and some have even speculated that it's hurt fan engagement and support. Suns fans have been consistently attending road games for the past year, but this one did feel different and I wonder if it's because there were more tickets available than there otherwise would've.

I anecdotally know many people that have relocated from the Phoenix/Tucson area to the Denver area. That might be some of it. (And if I didn't have several aging parents in this state, I would probably do the same.)

I loved the vocal Suns fans in Denver shouting MVP! MVP! for Book in their arena where the reigning MVP and current top tier candidate resides.

Just now getting to the game…watching the nuggets broadcast and gotta say the broadcast team so far has been pretty good…they did bring on a high school kid who wants to be a broadcaster and he might be realizing it’s not as easy as it seems at home. Pretty cool thing for them to do though.

I didn't get a chance to watch this on our home broadcast, I listened to most of it on NBA radio and then League Pass. I didn't realize until I read about it this morning that the Denver broadcasters used a picture of a Clipper while introducing Booker. That may have been a reason why Booker was upset and went off.
The Denver broadcasters also pronounced that Bucks star as GeeAnus or something like that. Maybe they really are that dense and don't know any better or maybe they really are that big of ass hats.
No way that was an accident. They played the Clippers two days ago. They don't have a Book pic? Yeah, right. If you don't have the right pic, don't show it at all. 100% intentional.
