Never thought the first two games go down this way… first ok, alot went for Denver. But the 2nd??? They took 20 shots less… Murray and MPJ were totally off… and the Nuggets still win? Wow, just wow! Obviously Joker stepped up big time and KCP as well. Really scary good, always someone there to score! Go Nuggets!!! ❤
@@jesseliverless9811 Murray also shot 0-9 for 3. That rarely happens... It's called good Playoff series. Jokic himself outscored and outrebounded Suns... Who was MVP...?
The way Jokic moves off the ball and constantly makes himself available or creates these huge screens, it's nearly unguardable right now the way they're playing. Great team basketball! 🏀🔥
The defensive effort reminded me about the 90s basketball. This was so crucial to win. When a player stays 40 min on the court, not only is fatigue a factor but also the defenders click on the rhythm
Durant 2-12 from 3😒!! WTflyingF? He has to attack and get to his mid range or to the rim if Phoenix will have any chance to recover... Denver is in full control, Jokic is schooling everyone, the dude is doing some stuff from the 5 spot that has never been done before...😮
While i was watching this highlight I had impression that Ayton was killing Jokic, virtually every single point of his was shown. In the end dude had 14 points and Jokic 39. Whoever is doing these highlights... I really don't know what's he doing
Exactly. Like, show 10-15 minutes of great playoff bball, show the defence, and shots that made difference... In close games, last 5 minutes of the video should contain last 2-3 minutes of play. Because - It's the Playoffs!
Never ever say that KD is better than Steph. Steph has proved himself that he doesn't need KD, but KD he left GS for Harden and Kyrie, and now with Book and CP3... but it hasn't worked at all.
Stop it! KD has more skills than anyone who's ever played this game... The Brooklyn Nets experiment doesn't even count because they never came together as a team for one reason or another after another.. joining up with the sun's very late in the season really doesn't count either.
@Vaughn Miller: Just two things. 1. stats. Look them up. :) 2. nobody in the league gets DOUBLED like Curry. They fear him like the Boogieman. Go ask the Kings. As a GM, I would prefer Curry over Durant ANY day.
@@Zett76 two things. Steph's stats are based on the three- ball . That's his skill set.. as far as him getting double like no one else in the league, go ask the king's why they didn't. And by the way if I remember correctly after LeBron and the Cavaliers whoop that butt after being down three games to one, who did Steph, Draymond and company beg to join their team.
Well, I thoutht nobody (except some parts of the media) would expect from Suns that have no chemistry to beat 1st seeded Denver. I'm not sure for KD. Why call him a "snake"? He's walking very similar path to LeBron, right? The difference is in that LeBron constructs teams, and KD is called upon, into already constructed teams.
@@predragnikolic5807 you can't seriously say that he is walking the same path as Lebron. This guy literally just joined the best team of the previous season for the second time. He chooses the easy way out. The only time that he tried to walk the same path as Lebron was joining the nets, and we all saw how that went.
@@Kido_1479 I just said "similar path", not the same path. LeBron was really handpicking the players (that speaks a lot about how great he is at understanding the game at all levels). KD really comes to already great teams, I'd say that was the case with Nets, too. They both have had some great teams around them. Which was not always the case with Giannis, Tatum, Jokic...
@@predragnikolic5807 in my opinion it's just a weak move to join an already great team. In his occasion he has done it multiple times. That's why I don't like him, nor respect him and furthermore I enjoy watching him lose after such attempts.
I thought the whistles made a big difference. If you watched all possessions you can tell. 1st half was crazy. Suns had so much contact but no whistles..
The defense was so intense from both sides this game. Like my adrenaline was pumping and my jaw was clenched like the whole second half. True playoff basketball. 🫡
@@jaksahputra8529 He probably meant Nikola Jovic, a rookie from Serbia who plays for Miami. The boy is talented, he will surely be heard about, but I don't know why he is being mentioned now :).
Beat them in a high-scoring first game, now beat em in a low scoring game. There is NO WAY Denver is losing this series! They are far more versatile, better on D and basically they got actual bench players that can contribute at both ends.
@@Zett76 he is 35 not that old. remember the King in 2018 when he was 34 years old? Just KD likes to take the easy path to the title. This is the difference btw Lebron/Steph and him.
@@Zett76 Jimmy-like actually! Curry may gather the spotlight, but Butler had a far superior series overall than Steph. More efficient and did it at both ends. Carried a far worse team to a 4-1 against the 1st seeds (and one of the main contenders), not against the inexperienced Kings. Well, Jimmy is only a year younger than KD. Personally, i don't think it's enough. It's all about the depth and Suns don't have it. Only LAL have the depth to play the Nuggets in the West. Not even the Dubs
44 and 45 minutes played for Durant and Booker. That are a lot of minutes, injuries incoming. Even Denver managed to give their stars a couple of minutes more rest and they only played 8 guys.
Coach Monty Williams may want to play TJ Warren as a PF to shoot better mid range from the free throw distance and the elbow like D A did @ 0:42. I just think TJ does it better than DA. DA needs to work on the glass more. I think if TJ is around that distance, KD and D 📕 will have much more chances to shoot from down town.
KD and Book almost played the whole game and they still lost. That’s tough even more if you consider MPJ and Murray had an off night. And another Classic with CP3 gettibg injured in the Playoffs
If Durant lose I don’t ever wanna hear him mention with Bron ever again. Idec if Bron loses to warriors. Durant got swept last year by the Celtics and to lose this series idk
Simply put the nuggets out played the suns in both games hands dwn and as ive been saying kyrie and durant as talented as they are kill teams only body kyrie has been able to play with is labron and the only body k.d has been able to play with is westbrook and the warriors
Suns only make it past any team in playoffs if that team is missing it's best players. Since 2021 they have only won series where the best players are out . Pretenders
I said it after the FIRST GAME...DENVER HAS TOO MANY WEAPONS FOR THE SUNS. KD was 2 of 12 from 3....2 OF 12...YOU GOTTA BE BETTER THAN THAT SLIM REAPER. And, CP3 8 points and 6 assists...NO BUENO!!! Suns going to need KD and BOOKER to go for 40 a piece on the next game to have a shot and CP3 gotta have at least 15 and 12 assists at home. Suns lose game 3 this thing is a wrap...Carry On...

Real talk
KCP’s 3 point game is elite now
With 14pts? You serious?
@Hamza Tariq 💀
Gordon and Christian Brown as well🌚
Murray had the worst game of his life and the Suns still ended up taking the loss 🤦♂️😂
So thats why jokic is key player in denver.
Sof.ckin true
For Denver to win Murray can have bad night, but Jokic cannot.
Murray has to be there, usually he will play good, but Jokic is key.
many to come from murray and mpj...
KD had a very bad night as well.
Joker rock solid. even when Murray just 10pts, they are still a force to be reckoned with.
Murray & MPJ combined 15 points and the Suns can't get the W
That's not a good look for Phoenix
Jokic is amazing
MVP x3
Jokic MV3!
wow, they made Durant miss SEVENTEEN shots... Aaron Gordon turning into a real difference maker this season
Durant 2-12 from 3😒!! WTflyingF?
