Suns @ Nuggets Friday Playoff game thread 6-11-2021 - Game 3

[Bufalay]

I never understood that even at the time. James did a whole bunch of fancy back-and-forth dribbling while Crowder said "Uh huh?" and waited for him to do something meaningful. It was like watching a peacock go through a big courting display to a plastic statue.

And the bench went along with that weird over the top celebration onto the court.

I'm hoping the Clippers can extend the series with Jazz so the Suns can get some rest. Of course the Suns have to care of business with the Nuggets on Sunday.

From ESPN:

In the fourth quarters of these three Denver games, Paul has scored 30 points on 12-13 shooting (4-4 from three) with 8 assists and 0 turnovers.

Jokic was great there

The last part of the season and the playoffs have gone by like a blur.

There are not enough hours in the day to cover everything Suns related.

We have been waiting a very long time for this.

Chris Paul saying the Suns coaching staff has them well prepared... the attention to detail.

John Gambadoro makes a good point. I didn't notice it during the game.

Suns have won 6 in a row in the playoffs. 3 against the defending champs and 3 agains the 3rd seed. Not too bad.

If they win their next game it will be the longest playoff winning streak in franchise history. Currently tied with the 2009/10 team with 6 straight.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

1000%. I felt the same. Countless times tonight I saw Jokic make his move and DA hold him to a tough shot.

Felt like pretty much every time Jokic scored on Ayton I just said to myself "gotta live with that going in". Jokic was just making a bunch of tough shots, but is also why he shot something like 40%.

 

[outcent13]

Jok

He carried that team down the stretch of the regular season and over Portland. He just came up against a much better team. Anyone questioning if jokic makes his teammates better doesn’t watch any Denver games except these suns games and might not have the greatest b-ball IQ.

yeah this is the first series of basketball I’ve watched in 16 years so you are probably right.

Man im pretty exhausted didn't zzz till 1 am lol but what an amazing morning sooooo happy for suns

[Mainstreet]

Thank God James Jones didnt sign Ibaka like I wanted him to. Dude was on the shelf all year and now is officially done with back surgery.

Crowder has to be the best MLE signing of last offseason at this point, right?

And Ibaka has a $9,720,900 player option for next season.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Maybe paul should save toon squad in space jam 2 instead of lebron uh? Lol

My cat has blue eyes and a mixture of white, black and cream. She was abandoned and we gave her a home.

We have been repaid a million times over.
