    He is 0/9 from behind the arc. He is lucky that Nuggets is winning. Otherwise he would be #1 scapegoat nominee.

    Welp. I guess I’ll just root for the Nuggets to win a short series. With the CP3 groin & KDs glass body. Don’t trust them to be healthy next round.

    Rather a healthy Nuggets take a crack at Lakers/Warriors

    The bookies screwed up lol.

    Denver is the deepest team and Top 3 contender.

    They had them at 4th-6th.

    Barring injuries.

    Durant would want to make a comeback.

    KD just being leisurely
    No real defense or REBOUNDING

    The Step Suns just don't have it

    Next year with Kyrie

    I was told three point shooting teams can't win, and that hitting middies chruns out championships like clockwork come May and June?

    Its a shame no one in Denver cares about the Nuggets. They have an amazing team and an all-timer in his prime. No one appreciates it.

    Games 3 and 4 are must wins for them now.

    In my experience living in Colorado, it's more of a football state than anything else. People love the Broncos. Hockey is also moderately popular. NBA and MLB are not that big here.

    Partly it's just a smaller media market, partly there are a lot of transplants (like me) who root for teams in other states, partly it's just that people just have lots of other stuff to do here besides sit in front of the TV. Cities like Houston and Chicago are much more "camp out on the couch" type places due to weather and lack of outdoor activities.

    Denver has the better 11 players.

    Suns have 3-4 players that are better than Denver's top 4 players.

    Difference. But not that much better any longer as the playoffs show.

    You need to hit both 2s and 3s much alike.

    Middies are good when you rush 3s in clutch situations and you can't get those to go.
