Playoffs: Suns @ Nuggets Saturday game thread 4-29-2023- Game 1

[JosiahLee]

Murray is insane. No answer for anything he does.

 

[Chaplin]

Murray has been amazing.

 

[Finito]

Murray looking like his old self.

 

[JosiahLee]

Aside from Denver shooting lights out, I just hate the body language tonight. Stay in the fight mentally.

 

[Chaplin]

Murray looking like his old self.

Murray always plays well against us. The x-factor tonight for me has been Aaron Gordon.

 

[Peter Sheldon]

I’m shutting this travesty down. At least we have an amazing coach who will learn from this game and make adjustments…..oh wait.

 

[dscher]

The main guy we need perimeter defense on all night and we got nothing. We have guys on skis out there on the perimeter. Not one lock down defender. That's the area this team needs to desperately look into next year. Something.. anything.

Throw away gm learn from this god awful gm and play better n gm

Very saddened emberresing no heart effort

 

[Vacard]

No bridges to stop Murray. Put Ross in their

 

[Chaplin]

Funny that the difference in this game were the minutes Jokic was out in the first half. Otherwise we’ve played them even.

 

[Sunstroke]

Too much 3 point fire power from Denver. Murray, KCP and Gordon
are way to much for the Suns to handle. Say g'night Phoenix...
you're done!

 

[mjb21aztd]

Suns better w there home gms...

 

[Vacard]

Good. Put him on the floor. They been hard fouling us

 

[Covert Rain]

Defense is so so bad.

 

[JosiahLee]

Man this team is scary.

 

[mjb21aztd]

Awful

 

[dscher]

I heard multiple analysts say Murray was the X-factor in this series for Denver. So far so true.

We should have known this. He got hot a couple home games in the last series that buried the wolves..

 

[95pro]

We needed that hard foul in quarter 3

 

[Phrazbit]

Positive note… outside of a stretch in the second quarter, the game has been very even.

Negative note. We are not shooting threes or defending the three… I am not sure how we fix this. Old Suns matched up a lot better with this team.

 

[Covert Rain]

Suns goal is to get one of these first two games. It’s just not happening Game 1.

 

[FB94]

We have no chance if they shoot like this from 3. Team wasn’t ready to play first half giving up 60+. I hope Monty has some answer for limiting their 3s but not hopeful

 

[Dr. Jones]

We all see it but Monty

Ayton on Jokic has been a joke.

 

[dscher]

Defense is so so bad.

Soft

 

[Chaplin]

Weak sauce. NBA officiating is so weak.
