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

[Cheesebeef]

Crafty play by CP3.

 

[dscher]

I can't stand Argentinian players...lol. Stick with soccer please.

 

[Chaplin]

Crafty play by CP3.

And dumb by Jokic.

 

[Mainstreet]

Paul misses another shot he normally hits.

 

[Chaplin]

Another rule ignored in the modern NBA: palming.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

It's clear Denver has decided to let Paul score and his shot is off

 

[Mainstreet]

It's hard to beat referees.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Pretty weak end to the half.

 

[Chaplin]

Oh my god Craig didn’t do anything.

 

[Mainstreet]

Halftime:

Suns 59 - Nuggets 55

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Suns right now...

Build a lead and then coast.

Repeat

It's a dangerous game

 

[Proximo]

Paul's shot has been off.

yeah, not a good game for that to happen.

 

[az240zz]

We are so predictable at the end of quarters

 

[Chaplin]

Suns right now...

Build a lead and then coast.

Repeat

It's a dangerous game

Yeah but in 15 minutes we enter the part of the game we usually dominate.

Just need to come out strong and we got this game.

 

[coyoteshockeyfan]

How come Richard Jefferson is such a Denver homer?

Jokic is tired.

It’s odd to me when former players are allowed to commentate on their former franchises on a national broadcast

 

[Cheesebeef]

Suns right now...

Repeat

It's a dangerous game

yeah... Denver looked like they were on life support there for a moment when we lost the lead and then immediately built it back up. Bridges missing that wide open three would have pushed to 16.

gotta come out in the third the way we did in the first.

 

[AZ Native]

It's clear Denver has decided to let Paul score and his shot is off

Hopefully he'll hit it in the 2nd half.

 

[Chaplin]

It’s odd to me when former players are allowed to commentate on their former franchises on a national broadcast

Yeah Grant Hill did it during the Laker series.

 

[dscher]

Eh. Frustrating half. Up on the road at half against any team is a win. Not about how ya start....let's finish!

 

[Mainstreet]

Chris Paul is 3-8 for 11 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

 

[Chaplin]

Chris Paul is 3-8 for 11 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.

I have a feeling he’ll turn it on in the next 24 minutes.

Did Jefferson ever play in Denver? I remember him with the Nets and Cavs. Not sure where else he played.

 

[Mainstreet]

I have a feeling he’ll turn it on in the next 24 minutes.

I hope so. Paul has missed some shots that are normally money.

 

[Chaplin]

Did Jefferson ever play in Denver? I remember him with the Nets and Cavs. Not sure where else he played.

I believe he did late in his career.

 

[AZ Native]

We need to run, run run the 3rd quarter and put them away.
