Playoffs: Nuggets @ Suns Sunday game thread 5-7-2023 - Game 4

[Proximo]

The Nuggets are shooting over 54% and losing.

Joker is playing at an unreal level.

 

[Mainstreet]

Really? You expect them to throw out the joker for that?

we were lucky to get a Tech.

A player shouldn't be able to throw an elbow against a fan and get away with it.

 

[BirdGangThing]

KD and Book aren't getting a lot of help from any one player - but they are getting a little bit of help from a lot of players

Cam Payne as a starter is night and day.

Ignore the numbers the pace alone is worth him starting.

 

[Proximo]

We have to hit our open 3’s. They made most of theirs, we bricked almost all of ours.

 

[Phrazbit]

I’ve seen the replay now. Jokic is lucky he is Jokic. A lot of guys would have been tossed for that.

I’m not happy with what he has done. Gambling way to much on d.

 

[Proximo]

Lucky? That’s a definite tech on anyone.

I don’t think so. I think the only reason it got called is that it happened to ishbia.

 

[TJ]

The Nuggets are shooting over 54% and losing.

They’re hitting some seriously low percentage shots. Combined with Jokic still in the game after assaulting our owner, the Nuggets are lucky AF

That’s all Payne can do as he’s frail

 

[BirdGangThing]

Jokic is having to do his share and part of Murray's as well

Jokic should have been tossed, no doubt about it.

Assaulting? Give me a break.

 

[Zobaczcie suki]

Solid half by DA hope he can stay aggressive in 2nd half with those fouls

 

[TJ]

Assaulting? Give me a break.

lol

He didn’t. It was a little push with his forearm. Fans arent supposed to touch the players so joker probably felt justified.

Kenny Smith just pointed that out, specifically showing how, instead of Chris Paul bringing up the ball by pounding it into the court, the ball is quickly passed to Payne who pushes it up court with speed.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Crazy, now that the game's sped up neither team is hitting many 3s. Denver has 4, Phx has made 3

Ross hitting a couple of his would have been huge.

 

[RON_IN_OC]

If he can just clean up the boards the help Payne start the break, that will be awesome.

I agree if that’s any player besides Joker, or maybe Lebron they get tossed for throwing an elbow to a fan. I expect more to come from this. Wouldn’t even be surprised if an assault charge is filed! Totally stupid and uncalled for in Jokers part we should foul him hard a few times and see if he loses his cool…

 

[Devilmaycare]

Here's a tweet with a clip of the incident if anyone is looking for it still.

Possible penalty on Ishbia for flopping.

 

[Mainstreet]

It doesn't matter. Jokic shouldn't be able to swing an elbow at a fan.

It was a minor shove. Ishbia reverted back to his playing days at Mich St and flopped. Great sales job though! Got Joker for a T!
But nothing will come of it. It was nothing…
