Nuggets @ Suns Wednesday game thread 12-25-2024

[Mainstreet]

How is DeAndre Jordan allowed to lean over Nurkic at the FT line?

bud is bringing nurk in when denver takes the joker out - and it's working

I’m not sure if that’s strategy or not. I don’t think he like to play either one for long stretches.

Jokic is going to return now. The first 3 minutes were Plumlee while Jokic sat. We had 1 offensive possession with Nurk and no Jokic.

nurk better not suck when the joker comes back in

Did Murray just travel on that left handed layup?

 

[BirdGangThing]

morris is nice

 

[Mainstreet]

Good job Monte.

 

[Hoop Head]

Love Monte's fire. One of the only vets who plays like he cares.

 

[BirdGangThing]

suns are actually having fun tonight

 

[95pro]

Nice defense by Morris on Murray.

Hey Beal makes a layup.

 

[Mainstreet]

I'm afraid to say anything, but the Suns are playing with energy and defense.

 

[95pro]

Classic O’Neal. Looks off someone, makes you think that was a dumb decision. Then he nails the three.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns lead 99-87 going into a timeout.

 

[Mainstreet]

Okogie, O'Neale and Morris are bringing energy and defense off the bench.

 

[95pro]

6 minutes left. Playing with no energy and movement now on offense.

 

[BirdGangThing]

odd time for a challenge - we better win it

 

[Mainstreet]

Nurkic doesn't get any calls on defense.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Be niceee if suns got over den without dbook fingersss crosseddd

Good gm by kd hopeeee he stays healthy when dbook ret

 

[BirdGangThing]

they robbed beal twice lol

 

[95pro]

wtf that contact is negligible

 

[BirdGangThing]

looking good with 4 minutes to go

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns are scrambling on defense. What a sight to see.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns with the unusual strategy of extending Nurkic on defense dropping Durant down low to defend the basket.

They are definitely quicker down low.

 

[BirdGangThing]

good game tonight - much needed win after losing on Christmas 3 times in a row
