The Nuggets without Murray when facing the Phoenix Suns with Chris Paul in the NBA playoffs is like going outside the city of New York on a winter night without any cloth. The series will surely be an advantage for the Suns. They need to have a close match to him because currently, he is one of the best point guards in the NBA and when other team has no one player to match him in terms of his skills, that's clearly a major advantage and honestly, they could even sweep the series if they managed to keep the way they played the last 2 games in their next games.
The defense was poor and the offense was worse. I'm a Nuggets fan and I can't take it when I saw them being punished like that because of their errors and to make matters worst, those mistakes ain't small.
Bad pass, no warnings that a double team is coming, no chemistry.
If Porter Jr. is doing bad at shooting, take him out. Use another player to fill up what is needed.
But no, they forced it even if he's feeling uncomfortable at every bend he will make.
Under rim cuts are also gone, pick and roll cannot be seen. It's just "pick" but no roll.
All are stagnant or forced outside shots. They became predictable. They will certainly lose against the Suns if no one will try to attack the paint except for Jokic.
I hope they will make an adjustment in game 3, if they still lose in game 3, they can't make a home-court disadvantage as their excuse. I am so disappointed with the Nuggets, I thought they'll give a hard competition but they were dominated in the last 2 games.
They are not complete so there struggle is tolerable, Suns are complete and will guided in the pressence of their veterans also they are so hot since they manage to get huge confedence since they beat those strong teams and advance on second round. Lets just see if they can adjust since if not maybe they will be sweep by Suns on this series.
