Suns @ Nuggets Sunday game thread 11-24-19

That had to be a travel

 

[Chris_Sanders]

I cannot believe Plumlee did that without travelling

 

[SirStefan32]

Oubre!

 

[Mainstreet]

Take that Plumlee by Oubre on the dunk.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Hah I had no idea Diallo had that range

 

[Mainstreet]

Hah I had no idea Diallo had that range

Diallo will add another dimension to the Suns when Baynes and Ayton return.

 

[thirty-two]

Please box out! Too many second chance points.

Diallo, keep doing you, boo! Swishhh

 

[Mainstreet]

Wow. Diallo.

 

[SirStefan32]

Well, they did a good job for the first three quarters.

 

[Mainstreet]

The good news is the Suns have found a player in Diallo.

 

[SirStefan32]

And Denver just can't miss now.

 

[hcsilla]

(At least) some of Kaminky's minutes should go to Diallo.

 

[SirStefan32]

I suppose you're not going to win a game when Saric, Diallo, and Okobo are your "big three".

 

[Mainstreet]

When the Suns miss there is no rebounding as the Nuggets saturate the lane.

 

[SirStefan32]

There is Book!

 

[SirStefan32]

Oh well, they played well, considering they were missing three of their five best players. Hell, they were missing all five of their best players. Oubre and Booker may as well had taken a night off too.

 

[Mainstreet]

Jokic reminds me a bit of Greg Ostertag in terms of his build.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns definitely look like a tired team tonight.

 

[Mainstreet]

Final:

Nuggets 116 - Suns 104

 

[Mainstreet]

Well we got one of two on this road trip. Not bad considering they looked like losses coming in.

 

[BC867]

Suns definitely look like a tired team tonight.

And still we won the first three quarters.

As I posted in the 3rd quarter, with Denver's record, it is most probable
that the lead that we had will not make it to the final score.

What we will get out of the game is not what we do, but HOW we do it.

Under the circumstances, we did it OK.

 

[1Sun]

Ran out of gas down the stretch. Still impressed with how they hung in there for three and a half quarters.

Still love what Monty is doing as a coach, though I do wish he stop starting Tyler Johnson in the backcourt with Booker and instead let Carter and Okobo play the point.

[Raindog]

On the positive side, it was nice to see good games from Saric, Diallo, and Okobo. The injuries and Ayton' suspension have been a bummer, but this is going to be a really deep team once everyone gets back.

If we can get to full strength, I like our chances the rest of the season.

Rebounding rebounding rebounding

Brandon Clarke would have really helped in that department...
