Crowder has no length, and is really only a good defender against players who try and use their strength to back down, or bull rush you.

Mikal is much better against finesse players.

We're comparing Crowder to Cam Johnson

This game is big people. It will set the tone for the entire series. I don't like calling Game 1 a must win but often it does set the psyche of players for the entire series. That why 64% of Game one winners win it.

Chris Paul's shooting touch looking good.

Is it 7 yet? I'm hungry for McNuggets

Non Sequitar but when I was in LA this last week every time the Dodgers score 6 you get 6 free McNuggets. You have to think Denver has some sort of similar promotion right?

Nope they get a free double stack from Wendys when a player gets a double double. So Jokic basically gives you a free burger every time he plays.

Why not? One, we have a great crowd, but two, Denver is at elevation. You better believe that matters.

I really don't believe Elevation will matter much for this iteration of the Suns. With our slow pace, there are ample opportunities to catch your breath.

It certainly wrecked the 7 seconds or less Suns though. No bench and all speed

OK, screw all this Kumbaya ********, I'm tired of all the mutual love and respect.

Let's tip this off and slam these guys who are standing our way of the next round. Time for some playoff basketball.

Porter Jr shot 38% in last years playoffs. This year so far he is at 42%, we have the guys to key in on him.
