Denver has maybe their worst defensive unit on the court, versus Golden State's Lineup of Death 2.0™
EDIT - And Jokic and Gordon back in immediately. Cousins had a good day's work, though: they won his minutes, and he was able to give Jokic some quality rest.

For as much as I regard Mike Malone as a coach, it boggles my mind that he doesn't post Jokic up more, especially against Golden State. Cousins is eating these guys alive in the paint, and he's a shell of what he was. You'd think that Jokic would be able to foul their whole team out down there.
Shout out to Doris for calling out the Warriors defensive coverage.
I really like Kayte Christensen as a color commentator, and I also think that Doris Burke is who Kayte should want to be, when she grows up.

Willie Green knows what the Suns are going to run every possession

how long was he under Monty?

Pretty sure he was the first guy Monty hired when he got the Phoenix job.

The Suns as constructed have major issues without Booker playing. surrounded the dude with great 3-and-D guys but CP3 just doesn’t care about getting his own shot anymore and Cam Payne is probably the only other guy capable of generating his own shot and he’s not very good.

Playing like how I thought he would:

A couple of (current and future) second rounders today in the UCLA vs. Bama game. Jaime Jacquez and Johnny Juzang for UCLA. Both are about 6'7 and kinda play like Andres Nocioni. Herb Jones of Bama. I thought he would be a 1 or 2 year player--not a 4 year starter. He has everything you'd want in a wing except for a three shot. A less defensive orientated, better handling, penetrating Mathyisse Thybulle.

Significant. They can’t guard Jalen Brunson https://t.co/MthE3x9mUt

Not that I'd suggest doing it but at this point, we could probably get the Jazz to trade every single one of their remaining picks over the next two decades for Davion right now.

Never happening but I’d be more interested in the Frenchman

The Jazz shot just 3-30 from 3-PT range in their Game 5 loss to the Mavericks.

It was the lowest 3-PT percentage in NBA playoff history.

I’ve watched more playoffs this year than the last several years combined. Lot of great story lines so far and the match ups are to really intensify next round.
Next year is going to be lit with all the potential revenge teams: Brooklyn, Denver, the Lakers and the Clips. Throw in the rising teams like the Wolves, Cavs and Pelicans plus hopefully a competitive King’s squad and you have the makings of a fun season.

We'll see, but this might indeed have secured Snyder as a potential option on it's own, lol.
