This one will be a typical loss. Fall down early (our guys are never prepared in the first or the third). Close the gap before the break. Then the wheels come off in the third and we lose by 20. Book it.

I think it depends on which version of the Nuggets show up. I can see what you're saying happening and it could be what does happen but the Nuggets fall asleep around Jokic and to a lesser extent Russ when they dominate the offense. Russ is always motivated to show up against KD but he can't do it to the detriment of their total offense. Russ trying to beat KD is the Suns best chance to eke this out.

I'm not expecting a win, especially after OT the night before but I do expect competitive basketball. Hopefully one or both of Durant and Beal are available. I hope we continue to play team ball like last night. When our assist rate is high and the ball is moving, we are at our best.
