Tim Legler deserves a show
After watching this series so far, it's kind of cray that people were questioning if Jokic deserved his MVP awards. This dude can flat out ball 😶
It’s not over until it’s over. They came back from 0-2 so it’s possible they can win g6 and g7.
No matter how many superstars you have you it’s rare to win a championship without a great bench or depth around the roster. Suns can only depend on Booker & KD every night it’s not enough to win a championship.
Jok knows the game so he just messed up the illegal huddle. 😅
😂for 2 games 5 days ESPN and FOX Sports "We've never seen anything like K.D. /Booker and 74% shooting… (Ohh… But on the ROAD 🤣) a WHYT BOY from Europe 🌍👈🏻 is gonna show the ghetto 🐒 how to win a Chip!!! 😂😂😂
Bold take… I can see the Suns pursing Kyrie Irving this summer to replace Chris Paul.
💯 Nick😂 it's over in Game 6, let's go Nuggets!
yall saw this with deandre ayton last season tho, no surprise there bruhs
Phoenix suns Monty Williams ayton doing his job ayton get foul by the jokic two hands in back but elbow him to back him down what can ayton do if his coach not arguing with the referee it play on or foul on ayton if the referee letting jokic play physical don't call foul nba should watch tape denver nuggets get way with to many fouls
This is the excuse? 😂
To be fair they’ve played together for like a month before the playoffs and they’re taking championship favorites to game 6 and possibly 7. I don’t want to know what it looks like when they are ready for the playoffs.
No one is listening to nick ferdell fool
Replace Ayton with Claxton
Replace Paul for VN Fleet
Problem solved
Everyone contradicts themselves when they mention if players don't get Injured. If you bet on a team that has health issues, then you pick your poison.
Clippers being injured made that first series easier than it should have been.
Imagine bam on pre kd suns
KD's inefficiency is staggering considering he's been one of the most efficient players for some time. Mans has 19 TOVs & only 6 3PM for the series thus far. While shooting 45% FG & 22% from deep. Suns got a swap mart version of KD.
Nba analysts really got their suns prediction wrong! Kd is just not elite hes a great player but he cant win unless he plays with multiple hall of famers in their prime. I dont ever want to hear anyone consider him a top 10 player of all time not even close.
Bridges Johnson and crowder since last season all their depth
Kd isn't lebron, lebron is the only player who can carry a team to the finals
The Suns traded their bench for KD. The Suns is now a 4 star team with no bench.
Bro if the suns lose the NBA is rigged
Joker weighs how much? Durant has arms like Snoop Dogg lmao
Swear you’ll think every series was over the way these folks talk
Yesterday they were saying Book and KD were the greatest ɖuɔ ever…haha
Man nobody wanna hear bout Chris Paul he a HUGE FAILURE 😂 STOP PUTTING HIM IN TOP TEN
The Suns has the potential to win it all but then Durant and Booker must play like in game 3 and 4 all the time and that is very tough.
They need to win games like Denver in game 2 to have a realistic chance to win the championship.
Obviously you guys are on a game by game basis judging teams 😅
Series was tied until the home team won game 5. If the Suns arent built for the playoffs same goes for the Nuggets 🤷🏾♂️
First two games: Suns have absolutely no bench they can’t match Denver at all gonna be a quick series
Next two games: suns one two punch is absolutely monstrous and they do have a hidden gem on their bench suns have all momentum and will win the series
After game 5: Nuggets are the most complete team left in the playoffs they will make WCF
You have 2 scoring machines. What more do u need
Celtics missed their opportunity last year & this year they are a finesse team with no defensive intensity. Joe Mazzoula needs to understand defence wins championships
Let’s go suns!
I really do not like Nick. I think the guys negative.
To be fair I think the Suns are a team capable of winning it all…. The problem is the Nuggets are just built differently this year. Obviously the suns lack a little depth but still.
JWill has a few things mis-represented. While I don't necessary disagree on the adjustment part, the details are not correct. Smart was defending Embid as early as game 2; so it wasn't a new thing for game 5. Mazzula threw a lot of different bodies at Embid. Marcus' random comment was after this game; but Tatum's udoka comment was before this series; so in the context of 'losing a lockeroom' from this series, that's not quite accurate.
A more accurate take would be some of the stuff we've noticed and later Windhorst bought up on his recent podcast. Grant (more defense) is playing a lot less, as Mazzula prefer more spacing on the court. And maybe Rob is not right health wise, but Joe play far less double bigs (Al and Rob) than Ime did last year.
What happened? Light skin mamba aint show up?
Durant and Jokic are on the same level. Murray and Booker are on the same level as well a tier below both of them. No surprise this series is goin the way it is
Chris Paul’s contract is killing the suns. He’s not worth 3 10mill/year role players, and even if he was injuries plague his availability
30.6-13.1-9.5 Nikola Jokić is even better then in regular season. Clowns said when Playoffs comes that everybody will see that Jokić is not an MVP. Well,the clowns now should resign from their jobs and leave ESPN circus tent immediately or as soon as possible!
ESPN-circus tent full of sad,sad racist clowns. Sack some of them,bring us new ones to Jokić play with their minds also.
Nikola MVP Jokić,lives rent free in minds of black racist on ESPN and it is so joyfully to watch
Stop CP3 excuse injury..
Knowing is prone injuries why not trade him for a sorry team like the jazz, wizards or Timberwolves who were willing to give u nice assets…Like they did for Lakers fakers…
Man Tim Ledr is on the money. I saw the way Deandre gets beat… He also got fake hurt, and didnt run back on offense and then MPJ hits a 3… They need to get rid of Ayton
the headline says it all. get rid of Chris Paul and bring in some young talent
The Suns just don’t have enough. A 2 man game isn’t going to beat a team.
Legs and Zack Lowe have the best takes. Smart and great delivery. More videos with them!
Of course the Suns have a flawed roster, what did you expect when you trade for KD?
You have traded all your depth and defense for KD, so now you have to deal only with the starters production.
Ok, Landrey did awsome in game 4, but that was an aberration rather then normal. So movin on, Booker and KD and Ayton must have at least 90-100 points combined on good efficiency in order to win
By the way: welcome to Lebron career KD, only now Lebron have a well built roster. So deal with te expectation and rise above it KD, good luck
Here come the KD excuses. Right on time. SMH 🥱🥱🥱🥱
The Suns should have signed John Wall as insurance. He may not be ideal, but you can’t tell me he wouldn’t have helped them with CP3 out.
Before the 76ers-Boston series started i said 76ers in 7😎 and if they do win this series they goin to the finals
