Preseason: Nuggets @ Suns Tuesday game thread, 10-10-2023

Okogie says remember, I can hit the three too.

 

[Chaplin]

That Strawther kid looks good. He won’t be Bruce Brown but could be a good find for them.

 

[Muggz]

The fake beard would drive me nuts.

He drives my wife nutz say he has pubic hair on his head and face.
Would have to be Learner and Rowe for me.

Allen to Okogie yet again - Allen playing unselfish ball drawing the defense and getting it to the hot hand

 

[95pro]

From a distance I thought he physically looked like a smaller Ayton.

Sorry that’s what was saying. He looks like Ayton cut 3 inches from his legs lol

 

[Chaplin]

I guess we’re seeing February JO right now. Wonder how long it will last.

I think Allen will see time at point guard this season.

 

[BirdGangThing]

Allen's making a case for the 5th spot too with his distribution display - but Okogie is playing lights out

He’s playing free and confident. Either he worked real hard on his shot and is confident or he thinks it’s just preseason and isn’t scared like he was in the playoffs.

Allen was a starter on the bucks. Can easily be our starter but I think we keep him coming off the bench for depth.

 

[Muggz]

One thing so far from tonight, Maybe Nurkic doesn't shoot so many 3s from now on.
Tho he didn't have a 3 headed monster to pass out to tonight.

 

[Chaplin]

JO has taken 6 3’s so far, the next closest is 3.

 

[Folster]

The AZ Family feed is picking up a fan calling for Bol Bol.

 

[Phrazbit]

The Bollercoaster is in.

That is a great nickname.

 

[BirdGangThing]

There you go Yuta do something bro

 

[Muggz]

Gonna LMAO when Book Beal and KD show up for the 4th.

 

[Folster]

I'm not seeing it with Bol.

 

[Muggz]

I'm not seeing it with Bol.

He just needs to calm down a bit
and add 75-80lbs of muscle
and learn to play basketball.

Nasir Little just seems redundant with this team as it's presently constructed. Doesn't bring anything that isn't covered by one or more other players.

Funny, I would have thought this about Metu but Metu's got a few inches on him and has a surprisingly nice outside touch.

 

[Folster]

Why is Bol biting on pump fakes?

 

[Mainstreet]

End of 3rd quarter:

Nuggets 87 - Suns 77

 

[Phrazbit]

I'm not seeing it with Bol.

Yeah, I was telling people expect him to be a rotation player to pump the breaks. He is entertaining, everything he does has a bit of flair to it... but often in a comically bad way.

 

[95pro]

That is a great nickname.

I can’t take credit though, the PHNX guys have a running play on words with his name.

We need all the potential "3&D" wings we can get. Pray that one of them blossoms.

I'm thinking he might be on his way out. We don't have the time available to develop players.
