Initial thoughts from the Nuggets’ 129-124 loss to the Phoenix Suns in the second round of their Western Conference playoff series.
Initial thoughts from the Nuggets’ 129-124 loss to the Phoenix Suns on Sunday in the second round of their Western Conference playoff series:Turner Sports analysts Reggie Miller and Greg Anthony were in unison a few weeks back when they told reporters that they wanted to see if Nuggets star Nikola Jokic could carry the offense by himself in a critical postseason game. After Sunday, it’s safe to say we’ve got an answer.
Phoenix finished with a 40-11 advantage off the bench. That was a total flip of the narrative from Games 1 and 2 at Ball Arena, where the Nuggets outscored the Suns off the bench, 36-28 combined, to help take a 2-0 series lead. As much as stars Jokic/Murray and Booker/Durant hog the spotlight, guys in six through nine in the rotation have been another telling narrative.Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo taught Ishbia well.
