Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets Full Highlights 1st QTR | Mar 5 | 2024 NBA Regular Season

At ball Arena and the Denver Nuggets the reigning NBA champs 24 and5 record on their home court they’ve won six straight and they control the opening [Applause] tip nuggets remarkably healthy right now they’ve been trying to get all their pieces together and with kabius Caldwell Pope coming back tonight they are there

As nkic and joic Li Gordon gets it back a nurkic coach he is always inspired when he matches up against Nicole EIC that’ll be a good matchup tonight yeah former teammates here in Denver and in their first meeting the Nuggets won but nurkic had 31 points Grayson Allen the

League’s top three-point shooter knocks down the first basket of the game Grayson Allen is had just a great year and an underrated Defender he gets the Murray assignment tonight he almost always will take on the best perimeter player of the opponents Murray finds jic yic Reigns in a three he’s been

Struggling from Beyond The Arc just one of his last 11 but he hits his first one tonight joic never struggles with much for very long and there are very few areas where he struggles joic is on an incredible run here in this six-game wedding streak and for the season

Significant opportunity to win a third MVP as Murray puts his hands behind his back as he laces one well that’s that Murray joic pick and roll probably the best pick and roll combination in the league that time against Dro coverage Murray able to get to his pullup Phoenix

Coming off a loss against Oklahoma City they actually came back from 24 down in that game but couldn’t finish it off their fourth quarter woes continue there’s Caldwell hope he gets the steel he’ll take it all the [Applause] way suns are 35 and 26 just two and four

Since the All-Star break Allen got it cook it early his second made three no surprise there Grayson Allen just a great great shooter having the best year of his career Yin looking for Gord knocked Away by Bradley Beal Here Comes O’Neal O’Neal gives it to Durant Durant’s on the

Board Frank Bogle told us before the game he’d like to see the sun start to run a little bit more that starts on the defensive end Coach yeah Frank Bogle said the two things he wanted he’d like to run more he’d like to shoot more threes said the reason they don’t run is

They don’t force turnovers be got the steal that time and they turned it into points backto back losses for the Suns Saturday and Sunday against Houston and Oklahoma City in a ton of turnovers as Murray rattles one in Jamal Murray with his first two buckets down he’s got a quick

Four second matchup of the Year between these two teams Durant goes up and over Gordon nkic kept it alive but right into the hands of Gordon and Gordon’s going to drive it he’ll kick it Porter has been hot and he stays hot had a perfect night against the Lakers Saturday 10 for

10 with five made three-pointers and 25 points in that game Beal comes up short nkit popped it out of jokic’s hands joic thought it was a foul it ends up as an easy bucket for Brad Beal add me to the list of people who thought it

Was a foul but it didn’t matter Ed Malloy didn’t think it was a foul Carl Lane didn’t think it was a foul second of our double header tonight on TNT just saw the Cavs take down the Boston Celtics as Porter travels with it how about that

Coach a lot of years that I thought dwade was the best clutch player I had ever been around and tonight dwade 20 points in the fourth quarter for Cleveland yeah that would be Dean Wade oh 20 of his 23 yeah I like where you went with that though the Nuggets will

Welcome in the Celtics here to ball Arena Corner Three Frank boogo wanted more threes Brian he’s getting them four for four already for the Nuggets Royce O’Neal can shoot it I mean for the Suns friendly bounce got the shooters roll and game with a right ankle spring I am told his timeline of a return right

Now is around the three to 7 Day range and he is officially listed as dayto day now sources also told me that the earliest that Booker could return though it’s a long shot but the earliest that he could return is March 9th against it’s also a good reminder that he is the

Point guard the deao point guard uh with a lot of possessions with the ball in his hands and they’ve had a turnover problem this year so a player they’re desperate to get back no question they’re they plan to try to get a point guard just hasn’t come to fruition they

Haven’t been able to find that guy even a solid veteran backup Point Suns back in front here’s joic gives it up Michael Porter Jr he stays hot coach he is on some kind of heater right now he’s made his last 12 field goals he is seven for his last seven from Beyond The

Arc 25 points 10 rebounds and 10 of 10 from the field only the fourth time of play player has gone 25 or more and grabbed 10 or more rebounds with a perfect night that was his line from the Lakers game as Grayson Allen hits his third three so that’s happened four times

Porter is the first player to do it on the road Nia yic has actually done that twice scored 20 that is the Suns that have been struggling with their turnovers and it all seems to be leading to the fact they they don’t have that tradition point guard coach they kind of

Went with the philosophy that they were going to count on some guys who have had some health problems through the years to be healthy and then they were going to go with this position basketball with no point guard and sharing the point guard duties problem is getting Beal and

Durant and Booker on the floor all together at the same time has been a challenge as Murray hits another one he’s off to a perfect start yeah the suns are 13 and eight when all three of them played they had a 16 game stretch there January and February where they

Both Minnesota and Oklahoma City Suns occupy the sixth spot they’re trying to stay out of that play in right now a half game clear of Sacramento coming into play tonight with 21 games remaining they have a very tough schedule though Phoenix here’s Michael Porter Jr again and he finally

Missed he had to take a tough shot and that one won’t go first time he’s missed since last week Durant saves it and the Suns get another opportunity nurkic and yic and nurkic dangerous pass and that’ll be a turnover [Applause] Phoenix I thought Bradley Beal had some interesting comments after the game on

Sunday talking about the high volume of turnovers as joic pops free and misses Bradley Beal said we just need to stop overp passing and start shooting more and I think Frank vogle would be all for that he had a great line with us before the game you

Want to make the extra pass but not overpass Reggie Jackson throws one off backs his way in gives it up Porter a long three Grayson Allen secured the board Eric Gordon first minutes on the floor they dump it down to KD little turnar around quick release missed

It oh two stars both struggling a little bit here early in the game that Durant Just Four Points ooh nope jic left it up there for Gordon well defended though Allen wants it he’s got the hot hand right now and they keep feeding him Grayson Allen with his four three-pointer

  1. NBA is so sickening. Somebody is always sitting for TV big games. They play scared, I don't want to show my hand until the playoffs. That's real punkish and scary

  2. Wow, holy sheep shit, the Suns beat the Nuggets without Booker?!? AND Cleveland beat the Celtics?!? This was a good night for basketball y'all 😂
