I think this game is about to get away from us. We just can’t seem to get good shots.

How dare you!?!? Do you remember how bad Bender was? Saric looks like he knows what to do. He’s more like Ryan Anderson level sucking.

The volume of awful plays is way worse than Bender

Booker and Oubre both need to take it to another level for Suns to have a chance to win.

Oubre says I can with a 3 pointer. Assist from Booker.

Rubio gets his fourth foul as well.

Kellan Olson‏Verified account @KellanOlson


Williams committing to full reserve minutes for Carter at the point (and Johnson at SG) closes up any extra minutes off the bench so now Bridges gets only what's left after Oubre and a smidge at the 4. No bueno.

Really missing Ayton's rebounding and free points at the basket in this game.

Nuggets take their first lead in the 3rd quarter and lead
by 2 as we head to the 4th. The Suns are in foul trouble.

I don't expect the Suns to win the game, as I didn't at
the start of it.

But I feel proud of their performance, considering the
circumstances with a major lineup change and playing
on the road in Denver.

It has been an excellent first two games under the new
regime.

I commend your optimism, but how can you expect a team with
a new Coach, a new roster and a last minute suspension to have
it all together in their second game?

It is not a moral victory. It is development. Instant gratification
doesn't build a winner.
