Shamet crushed it and he's still pissed off. In spite of Book and KD's performance, our bench made a difference including Ayton. Rinse and repeat will be tough but believe in how the entire team responded in game 4
I saw the last minute of game 4, I didn’t have notifications on and forgot that the game was on.😅😢
No way I’m trusting Landry fucking shamet over Chris Paul , if we go to game 7 he has to play fool that can be his last game with the team
Suns over, great 😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rather than just saying the Plus Minus for Deandre and Jock, can you please tell us how many minutes each one played against Jokic? Otherwise it's a pretty useless statistic depending on who's lining up against the joker
Chris is going to have to rest to return right-or no ring. Period.
Denver is likely to full court press Booker to force a dampened tempo.
Could be wrong, the modern game's court is pretty open.
Durant? He's a wild card…hard to read. Best bet is he compensates Ayton having his hands filled with jokes on the board.
Ayton 😮
If he fouled out? It'd be better than soft layups and just filling paint.
Bench play matters…
The 90's Bulls' bench mattered.
This must be tough for you. Being a huge supporter of Paul and Craig. Craig was never a lock.
The team is better without Chris Paul.
Jokic punch? Lol becouse of this u gonna lose tonight 💯 and next i hope in 6 💯
Suns in 6!!! I’ve said this over and over!
I'm just worried if they can sustain the increased pace at altitude. Maybe Monty will have to go with a bigger bench to keep guys fresh, im not sure.
This game needs to be a total team win. Suns need contributions from all players that are in the game. Cant just rely on Book and KD to score 70 points every game. Hopefully Ross and Warren can make even more of an impact in game 5.
