Before the playoffs, I thought Phoenix would lose to the first really good team they faced. They reminded me of the nuggets from 2 years ago - really young and talented, but most of the roster has zero playoff experience.

But they looked pretty poised in round 1, so we’ll see

I'm thinking Suns in 7...I think we'll really see this is the series where the injuries for Denver come into play

but either way

For sure.

I just can't go against my gut, which is to doubt Phoenix because of that reason. I picked Lakers to beat them and I never saw them as a real 2 seed.

I think Ayton played Joker best of all the Western Conference big men this season. This is where not having PJ Dozier will really hurt since Book is 6'6 and not gonna be slowed down by Facu trolling or Shaq's insane wingspan. If Monte Morris can keep up his PnR pressure like games 5 and 6 then this will be an amazing back and forth of a series

Suns in 6 :manny:

unlike the blazers, the Suns actually play defense and are a super well built team

who on the Nuggets is stopping Booker?

we know jokic is going to get his, but can MPJ beat his matchup in Mikal Bridges?

would’ve loved to see this matchup with a healthy murray involved though

Luckily Booker is a more natural matchup for Gordon than dame was. I don’t think he’ll be on him all series, but I’d guess he’ll be the primary defender

Those 10 games before Murray went down where everyone was actually guarding their position got me thinking about better days
