One more thing - If Malone doesn’t last as our coach, it will be because he allows the refs to f***ing railroad us.
If that was chuck Daly, Pop or Phil J coaching us tonight, there would have been chairs thrown to the court and choice words for the refs afterwards, forcing negative attention to be drawn to them.
Malone is a wonderful coach. But he needs to grow a pair when it comes to refs. Hopefully increased playoff experience does that.

I’m still good about this series which sounds weird after getting ass fucked twice in a row.
Suns aren’t even that good. We are just incredibly bad at this point. Jokic is tired from carrying and never resting. I don’t want that EVER to happen anymore I don’t care about serbian pride man f**k the RS, I want banners.
MPJ has to step it up and Malone needs to blitz CP3 exactly like we did in 2009 in the hornets series. We blitzed his ass giving him all kinds problems. Right now we’re just letting him to whatever he wants to.
I want MPJ in the post more he’s being guarded by smaller guys, same goes for AG. Look for that matchups. Play Morris with Jokic and start Barton. Then have Facu off the bench running the non-Jokic minutes along with rivers as a shooter and green.
We need to win both home games tho imo…. If we do, we got this.
f**k jimi

He can’t allow Jokic to ger upset and get t’s.

I would have loved for Malone to go off on the refs but you can't do it when you get blown out. You'll come across as a loser. Referees aren't the difference in blow out wins/losses.

If we do, we got this. f**k jimi It's weird because every first half I watch Phoenix and go "you know I really think Phoenix is kind of meh" and then every second half I go "this is the best team I've ever seen" The CP3 thing is tough because I don't really see who you can throw on him other than Shaq and even if that happens he's just going to hunt the switch. He's been dicing up MPJ. He's dicing up the Nuggets in the PnR. Malone actually changed the scheme up late in the game and started playing Jokic in drop coverage. I'm not sure that's a good idea because CP3 and Booker can hit shots but maybe you have to live with that. Like CP3 and Booker can probably beat this Nuggets team if you play drop. But I don't really see another option. You can't really blitz CP3 or Booker much because they're just too gifted passing the ball and making the simple read. If you play drop you can at least not let guys like Ayton, Bridges and Crowder kill you. Just have to hope CP3/Booker miss some shots. I almost think you have to play drop at this point, especially if MPJ is going to continue to start. You just can't rely on him to make complex reads on time as a help defender. Sucks but it is what it is. On offense a lot of people have been taking screenshots but Jokic goes into the post, nobody moves and Facus defender sags very far off him. Everyones defender sags off a bit but Facus gives the most space. This is why I was complaining about the lack of using Jokic off of rub screens in the 2nd half of Game 1 because if you just have him isolate on Ayton, you're not going to win. Ayton is too smart a defender and the help will bother Jokic to an extent. Monte/Barton/AG/MPJ/Jokic. Gives you more length in the backcourt and also 2 capable PnR ball handlers. I just don't see another option. Without a PnR threat the Nuggets are getting swept though.

the reason isnt Facu, Millsap or Morris. Its the fact that MPJ is stil far away from being a legit 2nd option and that our actual 2nd option is injured as usual

It's very easy to guard an opposing team when their PG can't run a PnR and doesn't need to be guarded no matter where he is on the floor, whether that be 1 inch from the basket or 25 feet from the basket. Pretending like that's false is embarrassing.

people want to trade everyone now i see. Stop living in a fantasy world and bet on Suns. They match up very well with Utah and that's a series that probably goes 7. I wouldn't count the Nuggets out yet though. Phoenix has to play at altitude. Nuggets are down 0-2 and have been completely embarrassed. Have to expect they finally grow some balls for Game 3 and then you just hope you can steal Game 4 and make it a 3 game series. Lineup has to change.

we were legit a worse team than them even with Murray. They almost swept the team you was losing sleep over. Time to show Suns some respect and not act like Malone is throwing this.

Gotta give huge respect to PHX, they built a TEAM in two years that is clicking completely. Every player they have does what they need from them. It’s legit what we’ve been trying to build for years. A team, not heavily relying on their star’s performance. Huge respect, great team.
We’re still better. With or without Murray. We’re more experienced. We have a better coach.
Main thing is… attitude and hunger. We’re not in playoff mode atm. No hard fouls as we’re letting them shoot easily after the whistle. Send a message. In the very first minute of game 3. Know what? I’d start Millsap/Green in game 3. Mostly because they’re tough. Let them foul Booker or Paul on the drive. And with foul them I mean wrestle them to the ground, stand over them and let them know sissy ball is over.

Almost swept lmfao they were down 2-1 before AD got hurt what the f**k are you talking about? I respect the Suns a ton. I just know that they're not 20 points better than the Nuggets. I don't think there's a single team in the NBA that could be successful doing what the Nuggets are doing right now, which is playing 4 on 5.

They not only built a great team but they also built a roster that just fits the modern NBA. Athletic big man, 2 elite PnR guards, shooters galore, tough defenders (Crowder, Bridges, Craig). Just a fantastic roster that is built to succeed. I would worry about them once CP3 gets phased out though. The looks that he is able to generate out of the PnR at Age 36 is just mind blowing. Legitimately a basketball genius.

Jokic - Green - MPJ - Barton - Harrison for starters next game. Yes you read that correctly. We can hide Harrison on offense with that unit. Let him WORK Chris Paul on defense. Blitz him, smother him, crowd him, tackle him, spit on him. Whatever it takes.

Blitz him, smother him, crowd him, tackle him, spit on him. Whatever it takes. Don't think you can start Harrison but it is pretty crazy he hasn't even gotten a look at CP3. Nuggets had to move Facu off of CP3 to start the 2nd half. At what point does Malone just make the move that will break his heart? In this postseason alone Facu has been moved off of Dame because he lit him up, then off of CJ because he lit him up, then onto Powell who lit him up, and now off of CP3 who has lit him up. All while absolutely murdering any type of spacing and ball movement the Nuggets have on offense. Whether it be Monte, Harrison or even Markus Howard...make a f***ing change. Malone had the balls to close games 5 and 6 against Portland with the Monte/Jokic 2 man game where both guys thrived. Since then Monte has played 8 minutes in 2 games with Jokic on and Facu off. It's like Malone forgot that Facu got exposed against Portland and just reset his brain to start the Suns series. Then Facu had a great shooting night and...disaster happens because it buys him time. Also I wouldn't bench AG. He's played physical and with a ton of effort. Got in Crowders face, etc. Still blows my mind that he hasn't gotten any looks as a PnR ball handler considering just how bad Facu and Rivers are at it. What do you have to lose?

I was thinking about bringing MPJ off the bench and let his confidence grow lighting their 2nd unit up and start JMG and AG. We need toughness and defense with these starters. and yes Harrison probably won’t start nor play but he’s our best option for CP3. Thing is, I’m such a heavily defense first coach that I want to throw the best defense possible out there
