Nuggets @ Suns Thursday game thread 4-6-2023

[Dr. Jones]

They don't want to give us any looks before the playoffs. This one may be a simple tune up tonight. #LightMinutesForEveryone

Here is some updated injury information for the Nuggets.

I'm going to wait for later information before game time to get a better idea who will play.

Sounds like they may need to forfeit this one.

Nah, I think they want this game. We will see.

Is this somewhat a meaningless game for both teams? Nuggets looking to rest, Suns clinched 4th but need to build chemistry and finalize rotations.

I dont like the nuggets resting, they need to beat up the 8th spot instead of coasting down.

I think our line up is pretty much set. Okogie or Craig (starting with our top 4) depending on who we play - but by the end of the game it'll be the top 4 and whoever has the hot hand. The colder the bench the deeper Monti goes. As for resting players - doesn't much matter to me either way - I'm more concerned with our 3rd quarter play as of late. We keep building leads only to squander them - which will be much harder to come back from against top tier talent

Denver has clinched the 1 seed and the Suns are locked into the 4th. Would like to see the starters get between 25-30 minutes, especially with a back to back.

According to nba.com, the Nuggets have not clinched the 1 seed:

I think he'd have to stop using pot to make a difference.

Yeah that’s incorrect lol. Nuggets hold the tiebreaker over the Grizz so they can only finish with the same record. That’s why the Grizzlies loss last night clinched the 1 for Denver

 

[Covert Rain]

Assuming the Suns play their starters a litle bit for these last games, it feels sort of like NFL preseason. You watch the starters just to get a glimpse while they are in there and then skipping the rest of the game no big deal. That's how these last games are going to feel for me.

So, no Joker or Murray again, huh? Would be nice for this team to just crush them early and get our guys some rest in the second half.

But man… Denver is just throwing away almost the entirety of the last couple weeks of the season, huh? Not sure that’s gonna work wonders for them starting next weekend.

 

[Mainstreet]

All the Nuggets starters are OUT.

More on the Nuggets having the #1 seed in the West.

According to the current standings, they are tied with the 76ers for 3rd in overall league standings.

They are terrified of the Suns.

I kind of find it funny. It's not gonna stop us from whipping them in the 2nd round.

So this. On the TV and radio multiple talking heads say Denver doesn’t want to tip-off other teams which I find hilarious.
