I'm not sure if I've ever seen these Nuggets unis before.

Refs must have missed Jokic's MVP award. Officiating him like a rookie bench player.

Shocked Phoenix is only up 6 with the calls they've gotten and Denver playing like crap

I live in the most populated county in the country and my internet is clearly worse than they advertise.

When I lived in Chicago half of the city had exactly one ISP choice.

It seems like a total luck thing if you happen to live somewhere that has good options.
I’ve never had bad connections in Indianapolis, honolulu, Minneapolis or Nova. Nova is only bad in that like once a week I have to reset my router because it shuts itself down, but the speed and connection themselves aren’t bad.
We should enjoy internet now, whatever the speed. I hear Trump is going to shut it all down and go back to paper.

There was a clear, clear over the back they missed when he was going for a rebound and he tipped it out, and they gave it to the Suns.
Brutal no call.

He's had good position and playing hard on D, but if the whistle gets swallowed like that there's not much you can do. A few times he had a rebound and got fouled but the no call gave phoenix a gift possession...that's the MVP .

Monte is struggling from the field. Hope things change in the 2nd half. Phoenix looks fresher, more athletic.

Denver’s rotations on d is slow or non existent on most plays. Phoenix is just toying with them.

Tonight every time I see Monte he’s getting scored on, but then, Phoenix is hitting everything too.

Terrible game by Denver.

Denver needs Jamal Murray in the worst way.
Seems like every team left in the West has injuries. Nets have the bearded wonder w/HS issue.

Who are the healthiest teams remaining in the playoffs? That healthy team might have the edge.
Edit: spelling

Positive spin on this from ISU perspective is that it's pretty impressive Nader was in the rotation for this Phoenix team before his injury.

Would love to see Paul win it all this year.

Yeah I think if Denver weren't my adopted team Phoenix would be the team I'd have pulled for the most that has a chance. They haven't even done anything to make me hate them these past two games pulling for Denver.

Paul and Booker is a tough cover assignment for any backcourt. The minute they get overly aggressive on Paul he makes them pay for it.
