Jamal Murray might just make CP3 retire after this series
😭😭😭
CP3 looked tired trying to keep up with Jamal Murray all game 😂😂😂
CP3 too old and slow to keep up with healthy Murray
Good luck to him😂😂😂
We can only hope
They need to put Booker on him if they ain’t.
Denver is a team. Suns are all 1 on 1. Denver kinda reminds me of the early 2000s Spurs. No egos - share the ball - teamwork first.
Your not wrong. But if jokic goes down, the team goes down. He is why vocal point. But i do feel the nuggets won’t win a chip. They look strong every year but lose for some reason. It won’t be the suns for sure
detroit as well from 2000s
@@josephchavez9525 if any teams star goes down it means they’re toast
It all starts with Jokic. The Humble Goat
Was thinking the exact same thing!! Lol
The Inside Crew desreves a lifetime contract they are comedy gold🤣🤣🤣
Chuck said he’s retiring within the next 10 😢
Pretty sure they do...
They really are 😂 I love their chemistry
Shaq: No more "Kazaam!" No more "Steel!" No more 'movies' period!!!
They already do. Chuck wants to retire but they are paying him so much so he wants to stay.
Get em Aaron Gordon. I am so glad he was able to escape Orlando and is on a winning team.
I haven't seen him in a few years....man it sure looks like he has been lifting. I didn't recognize him at first.
in his post game interview after getting eliminated by Warriors last year he spoke about needing to play a lot smarter instead of relying on pure athleticism. really like that he bought into his role on this team and is a big big contributor
Archbishop Mitty produces some good ball players
@@zattack56 they don't have enough dive and seal calls for him.
Man I thought he was going to be the difference maker when Denver got him and then Murray blew out his knee. He and Porter are excellent complementary players. B ut Gordon in particular can guard a wide range of guys. And I still think he was robbed at the dunk contest.
Christian Braun was causing a LOT of headaches for the Suns on defense, he's an unsung hero of tonight's game.

Game 1 was a coaches dream for Denver. They played solid D, took care of the ball, rebounded well, took good shots. Just seems like they'll play smarter ball with a deeper bench and have easier paths to victory. Against the Suns anyway.
Lakers in 6
It’s game 1 and they’ve been well rested. I expected them to win game 1 we’ll see how PHX adjusts
@@WS-Deadshot both them teams was both rested knock it off with bulljive
@@WS-Deadshot aged well
Jokic is playing legendary basketball. He makes his teammates better, that's rare in today's NBA.
Isn't it cool to see how good he is even though he is not traditionally thought of as being athletic? That's why basketball is such a cool sport. Fundamentals and high IQ are also important.
Murray is always the most impressive Nuggets player in the playoffs. I like Jokic but Murray is the guy in these key moments. If they win a championship, they will make Jokic the Finals MVP anyway though.
It’s too bad they’ll have to go through Lebron after this series
“No where to hide with this Denver team”. Well said by Chuck.
Literally everyone said that. Not a new insight.
You know I notice while watching this Kd is the only one that’s really trying to defend😂😂😂
He’s an underrated defender
Your not wrong he was trying and he was doing pretty good to 😂

@@7mileTen They won't beat Denver....this isn't the Bubble anymore
Hi Cookie, your comment is dare I say… Sweet!
they are dangerous, periott
I'm a Celtics fan but I would love to see the Nuggets win it all if Boston can't. 😁
@@7mileTen LOL. If the Lakers get to play the Nuggets it will be a Nuggets sweep.
“Arizona….. SERBIA” 😂😂 Chuck is hilarious
Why is that funny?
Phoenix traded their bench to Brooklyn. They're gonna miss Mikal Bridges in this series.
2:00 - 2:06 is genuinely the cleanest pass and shoot i've ever seen
Suns really miss Mikal Bridges' defensive presence
And Cam's 3-point shooting
and crowder as well, they should have traded paul for something...
They traded there defence and depth and got pounded on the glass and ayton so inconsistent
They’re missing 3 point shooting. Any rational person can see this. They took five 3s in a whole half. You can say what you want about other issues they have with rebounding/turnovers, but they shot five 3s in the first half and Nuggets shot 17. Suns starters shot a combined 10 3s for the game, Nuggets starters shot 28. That’s the difference. Look at game 1 against Clippers. Suns were 6-19 from 3 that game and lost. In this game, if you ignore the garbage time minutes, Suns made five 3s the whole game. No team is winning a playoff game with that kind of shooting.
@@teddylabarca4565 That's not the difference. If you want to look at the "rational" difference and impact of the rebounding/turnovers vs 3pt shooting:
The nuggets got 15 more possessions than the Suns from offensive rebounds and TOs. Suns shot 59% from 2 and that's not even counting the possessions where they got fouled. Their efficiency was fine, they shot a higher TS% than the Nuggets despite losing big. Given the number of possessions the Suns had, they would need to shoot 68.4% TS to win this game, which is an unreasonable expectation. With that amount of possessions, replace every 2 attempt with a 3, and they would need 18 more threes to tie the game. And that's assuming they shoot 59% from 3. And shooting more 3s isn't going give you more possessions or better your defense.
Meanwhile, if all they do is match Nuggets in possessions, 15 extra possessions, all they need to do is shoot 59% from 2 in those 15 extra possessions (which they did all game) and they tie the game. A much more reasonable expectation. Defense and rebounding/TOs lost them the game, it's wasn't not trying enough threes. To win the game with threes, they need to make 18 more threes in place of twos, at a 59% rate (an alltime great shooting night for a team). To win the game with possessions, they only need to match Denver.
I want Denver to will it all this year! Jokic deserves a ring already.
He don't deserve it but he should win to go along with his resume.
Hey genius why would this one player out of the 450 players in the league deserve it more than any other player? YOU'RE A DEMENTED CHEERLEADER, isn't that a strange comment for you to make he hasn't shown any leadership He's lazy and a Humpty Dumpty he doesn't deserve anything! if he works for it and it shows good leadership maybe you can make a case of being one of many deserving people but arbitrarily just pick HIM out of the sky ridiculous. You could said Joel , deserves it, Giannas , another one Jimmy Butler is another one but as an abnormal brain you just decided to arbitrarily pick one person out of 450 players deserving it You sound just ridiculous and disingenuous get your act together Because you look bad. SMH
Honestly I think Denver will destroy the Suns this series, and will also smoke the Kings or Warriors. The only match up I think will get interested is if it's Denver Vs. La. A finesse team vs. a physical team. I think the others teams are a good match-up for Denver while LA is a toss-up.
No one deserves a ring. You get it winning the finals. That’s who deserves it lol
@@TrueGuardify I agree with all this…but….you think Denver is a finesse team? What?
Gotta love Charles shouting out the NHL as well :) as a fan of both its appreciated!
I’ve accepted the fact that Ernie is the delegator, Kenny Smith is here for the basketball analysis, Charles Barkley is here for the comedy relief, and Shaquille O’Neal is basically here to speak as a casual basketball fan.
Shaq hasn’t ever said anything deeper than the average guy watching a basketball game at your local sports bar.
he has 4 rings 😅
Seeing Jamal Murray like this gives me PTSD from the bubble when he took out my Clippers
😂 bubble Murray
Playoff Murray. This year people gonna learn
People forget who this man is
bro me too he’s so good but i have a grudge against him because he got my clippers
@@elotero0691 i didn’t clippers had fans
That man Jokic is a menace on the rebounds man. He had like 3x more than Ayton
Shows that athletic potential takes a back seat to effort, IQ and skill. Looking at how Jokic dominates and makes his team better I just wonder how much of the same and even better Larry Bird would do today. Its remarkable how similar they play.
Shaq was saying at halftime that Ayton was doing good cuz he was scoring, but he was terrible on defense and the boards. Just standing there and not being aggressive on the boards, staring at KD fighting for the boards instead of helping. Someone motivate this kid Ayton.
He should have been traded to Indiana.
Very low basketball IQ = DA
@@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812 so glad that ain’t happen

Suns are trying to run Ayton like the Lakers do AD, but Ayton aint that kind of guy. Suns don't have anything to alleviate that, and Monty wouldn't know how to even if they did.
Christian Braun is a better defender than anyone on the Suns roster and he's only a rookie 🤦♂️🤣
I actually had to defend Jokic the other day in comment section. Some guy called him a "choke artist" for losing last year w/o MPJ & Murray playing. I swear people say anything. Cool to see their team healthy, I got Nuggets in 6.
Yeah, crazy that his third best player in the series was will Barton who is barely a rotation player now.
@@Ryan-rd8yg He was barely a rotation player last year too. The Nuggets are not a deep team, they barely have 8 playable guys this year even with Murray and MPJ healthy
Denver’s roster too deep for this suns team.
2 years ago when Paul and Booker talked ALOT of smack to Jokic and a Nuggets team that didn’t have Murray.
Murray’s healthy now and times have changed.
They also didint have Brown,KCP,MPJ was younger and i think Gordon wasnt there or he just came to Denver
Not only missing Murray but MPJ. The only two useful people Jokic had. With them out their second best player was Austin rivers 😭
@@JJack-eb5mc Gordon's their 2nd best player in that series
@@allencastro9344 Aaron Gordon scored 6 points in game two, 4 points in game three, and 8 points in game 4.
And Porter Jr has become decent in defense
Feel like cp was getting mad at Murray 😂😂😂
Jokic in the first half almost had more rebounds than the entire team of Suns Jokic had 14 Suns had 15! :D
Denver is a team, built over time. Suns just bought a superstar and are trying to "gel" him in. The game is way past superstars. It's about the team and everybody chipping in.
And that is ultimately what basketball is supposed to be: the ultimate team sport.
Even Jordan had a solid team, coaches & system around him.
Yeah, Phoenix put that team together too late in the season, gave up to much to make it, have an aging point guard (maybe 1 or 2 great nights left in him, and he plays hurt often, not at a 100%). And the other new super star is getting up in age as well. Winning a title is a long haul trip. Denver is looking good to win the west.
I remember they kept calling denver a regular season team 😂
Yup. Keep disrespecting Denver. Better that way. An angry team is a productive team.
Still are 😂🤣
The best guys in the business!!! The Crew!!!
What did we expect suns would have been in Cancun if kawhi and pg both played the whole series. Denver gonna make it quick
"If"
They're really focused solely on Jokic and that showed how great his presence there at the game
Ummmm duh. Superstars are always the focus of defense
@@Cochise313 but not solely, it's not like cavs vs pistons where the whole squad focused on bron, cause they knew the old players in cavs didn't have much power left to take any contested shots, Denver has kcp, bruce, murray, mpj that ready for 3's, they shouldn't forget that Jokic's main force is his sombor and quick pass or pick & pop, they should just leave 1 player on the paint and the others lock the pass course but yeah, they lost mikal and it's really a huge lost on their defense, they traded their defense for another fire power
Murray been underrated these past couple years cuz he hasn't been playing. But the man is back and with mvp Jokic its GG for the league
Im glad Gordon is getting his compensation now
After his dunk contest years back being robbed from him....now he's in a championship bound team!
Patience is a virtue
Hope he gets that ring
Nuggets in 5. I won’t be surprised if it’s a sweep 🧹!
SUNS not having a bench gonna come back n bite em. They gotta play more than just the same 5 guys. They looked GASSED
The elevation doesn't help either lol Colorado air real different
Thats the KD effect, gotta gut the depth they have too all in on a superstar
Both teams have weak benches. Nuggets starting 5 just better.
@@MuckNoya I was saying that suns are toast KD and book can’t be playing 42-45 min in Denver of all places where you can’t breathe they’ll be tired by the 3rd quarter 😂
@@g.o.a.tsports2880 yea that’s the thing nuggets starting 5 on any given night each of them can have 20 phx only booker and KD are the guarantees co3 is washed atp and Ayton is average to below average for his status if booker and KD don’t go north of 40 pts each there losing and might be a quick series at that
This show is a gem it will not be lost in time 🎉
Joker with 14 boards at halftime, Suns as a team 15. Joker with 19 boards, Ayton with 7.... Please, stop sayin Ayton can do anything with this man. Big Tipper!
Mile high advantage. Anyone who’s been there knows how important it is. it’s often overlooked in the playoffs for whatever reason but suns looked gassed
Jokic is in better shape so he can run the floor now on fast breaks. Denver is finally getting out and using the altitude to their advantage.
Yeah that’s what I was thinking. Also they looked really gassed because they’re forced to play an absurd amount of time, given that they have no bench
I move furniture. I can tell you it's an advantage. Your out of breath constantly running.
@@Rogue_CenturionThe minutes are one thing, but you see how KD and book are definitely gonna be forced to actually defend now in this series? This whole situation is bad if you need your 2 best scorers to combine for 70+ points and ask them to be active on D for every possession since the suns lack that in the first place
@@rhinorock1325 true
I had nuggets in 6 before series, but it’s looking more like a sweep now.
Relax. Its just game 1. Guess this is the first time watching the playoffs?
@@uk9383 my guy where was that same energy when the Suns played against the injured clippers?? Now the Nuggets getting their revenge against the Suns after getting swept without Jamal Murray MPJ
@@jeremymckinney5607 Suns fans all “relax, it’s just one game…” 😂 That’s their cope right now, and it’s hilarious.
I'm sure they will pick up a game but look how close the clips played them. Yeah 4-1, But many of those were close games without Paul George and in the last game the clippers were without their two best players and still almost erased a 20-point deficit.
There's no excuse for why the sun's didn't win that fifth game comfortably and that finish was very concerning
Nuggets were getting practice jumpshots all game. In playoffs its not about contesting after, you have to make sure they don't have space to rise. Paul and Booker were picked apart by Murray, Gordon, MPJ. And nuggets also got more easier shots at the rim. When Suns' hard contested mid range jumpers stop falling, their offense stalls and they don't have rim pressure to generate easy looks. Nuggets in 6, but I wouldn't be surprised if they got it done in 5.
All that talk of booker's defense against westbrook led clippers with Kawhi and PG out. Suns defense (both POA and interior) was shameful.
Plus as the quarters progress Suns will get worse and Nuggets will look better because Suns don't have a bench and that 3-4 pts differential will turn into a double digit lead. KD and Booker can have an explosive night scoring 80 pts and they might steal a game or 2 but over the course of the series Nuggets will generate easier shots, however, Nuggets defense isn't something to write home about either.
thats why lakers going to the finals . AD alone makes their D too good
@@zackneskov2006 As a neutral fan of bball, Nuggets and Lakers have been the 2 best teams in the WC. AD's defensive performance was one of the best ever I've seen live, complete domination. We are in awe when Curry hits 10 3s on offense, AD did something similar but on defense, Grizz just couldnt score, they were shook, never seen anything like this in over 2 decades. And the lakers are the best defense left in the playoffs as both Grizz and Bucks are eliminated. I would have loved the story line of Bron vs KD in the WCF but a bubble rematch of Lakers and Nuggets would also be really special. And they both are running on all cylinders.
Booker had 2 blocks and a steal. He was playing defense. The other guys werent. And the issue is that the suns lack the 3 ball and the nuggets are just hitting theirs.
@@panic_diver good takes. Long as AD stays upright I like the Lakers to represent the west. They play better defense than the nuggets.
@@playmakerzam If you think booker had a good defensive game then we watched 2 different games. And 2 blocks and 1 steal is 3 good possessions in 48 minutes, these counting stats do not mean that he wasn't exploited all game long in Murray-Jokic pick & roll and other matchups hunting where gordon and MPJ just abused him because he is too small.
Nuggets in six the suns ain’t got a bench 😂😂😂
Exactly... Any injury and the sun's are done....
Yeah unless KD and Book combining for 70-90 a night it's a wrap for them boys
Nuggets in 5
Anyone else think Denver will finally do it? I mean, make the finals. I think it will be Denver vs LA, Denver in 6. I’d like the lakers to win, won’t happen though
Pay the Nuggets and Jokic some RESPECT. Go nugs! ✌❤😘
Just what I expected to happen, how so many people did not see it coming is beyond me. Yeah, Booker and KD are great and Ayton is pretty good and CP3 can be very good...but Ayton is still young and CP3 is almost 38 and they have no bench worth mentioning. On the other side, the Nuggets are all literally in their prime years for basketball with a good amount of experience but before any physical decline and Jokic and Murray are both great while Porter and Gordon are both very good players who present mismatch issues because Porter is 6'10" and Gordon is an athletic freak with good size. Then KCP is pretty good, good enough to cause a lot of damage too. And Nuggets have at least one bench guy who can come in and hurt you.
That Inside the NBA music intro is so iconic and nostalgic man always.
This was such a good breakdown of the game and what Phoenix can try. All time greats giving their takes on the series
Watching cp3 and KD struggle is HILARIOUS

If Joker & Murray can match or outplay KD & Booker the Nuggets should be fine. I don’t expect CP3 & Ayton to produce more than Gordon, MPJ, Bruce & KCP
This is going to be a great series.
Jokic is playing like a top 10 greatest of all time, he do the right plays. he knows when to score and when to pass, and he is just playing so easy that the sus cant figure it out. Nuggets in 5

Hopefully everyone stays healthy in playoffs.
Denver like Boston has had injuries derail them the last few years with Murray and Rob Williams, but now they are both healthy and heading for the Finals.
That was most definitely a flagrant foul on CP3 he literally threw his shoulder into Murray before he attempted to steal the ball

Hello everybody! How are you? It was a pretty good game, wasn't it? I just guess so. I hope everyone doing well. Thank you.
It was hysterical to see all the know nothing ESPN "experts" taking Phoenix...I believe 12 of the 16 did.
Jamal Murray just made every single shot. Nobody expected that
Jamal was COOKING COOKING!!!
I feel bad for KD & Book cause they need to average 80pts between them to even stay close
They’ll get their points. Big deal. Can’t stop em.
But now they have to play all game & 4 quarters of hard D because they have no depth. Good luck with that.
Not only that, the heavy minutes they will play. Book was at 40 and KD was at 36 when they got pulled with 5min left in the 4th
I told ppl before the series that Porter Jr, Gordon, Caldwell-Pope, & Brown will make KD & Book work on the defensive end. This can easily be a sweep.
Best playoffs in a long long time!
Denver needs to at least get to the Finals for people to legitimize Jokers MVP awards. I really do hope they get a chip. He's a great player!
It’d officially make him an all-time great. That said, I dunno if he or Murray would win finals MVP should they be champs

Be joker. Even if Murray is going off for 30 plus jokic is running the whole team
@@21hoboman Agreed. Jokic is like a 7 foot Magic Johnson, totally orchestrating his team.
Chuck said some weird stuff... no one is trying to hide Devin Booker as a defender. He has transformed himself into one of the best defenders at his position.
The issue is the switching and the 2-man game between Murray and Jokic. It's almost impossible to defend. Especially when Murray runs hot.
Booker is an average to above average defender still far from elite
@@lawrencemcdonald9212 almost all his defensive stats and the eye test say otherwise.
He holds his opponent to a 43% FG in the RS and below 40% in the playoffs so far.
He is quick and strong, fights through screens and doesn't bite at most pump fakes.
Other than Jrue, Caruso, Smart, Mikel (who is usually a forward) and maybe Gary Payton 2, I can't think of anyone else that can defend on his level or slightly better as a guard.
2:20 when Shaq and Charles both are disgusted by Ayton’s defense
Watch them give embum the mvp out of pity
Nuggets sweeping
Denver low key sent a message to the Lakers. They have depth and are hungry. To the nuggets, that covid WCF is heavy on Denver's mind.
I don’t think lakers beating kings
The fact that KD and Book had good efficient games over 25+ a piece and Still lost by 15+ is Crazy
Thats the reality of their team structure
I disagree. Those two will get their points every single night. Can’t stop them completely.
But now their being asked to play hard, grinding D on multiple matchups against Denver. It showed this first game; they looked worn at the 3rd quarter.
@@RS-ol8or they gotta put up 35 a piece a game, they can do it but they gonna give up more on defense
It’s always funny when how Charles does his face in embarrassing moments. 😅
Jokic is the best player in the NBA. He keep every body involve and that make his teammates better. His vision of the floor and passing skill are amazing. He is a 6.11 Magic Johnson.
It’s the 1st game…..I agree with everything they said but simply putting when a team out rebounds you specifically offensive rebounds and shoot nearly 50% from 3 plus makes 9 more 3s you don’t have a chance
Now that my Bucks are out, I dont really have a lot of investment in the playoffs anymore but I do know I would like a small market team to win it it. Unfortunetly there are no small market teams left in the East but the West has two in the Kings and Denver. I would love a Kings Nuggets conference finals. Both teams are great. I think i like the Knicks in the East since they have the best story and good for NYC.
Denver isn't a small market team. Denver is huge. Traffic is horrible there.
Denver playing nice defense.
They had to adjust to the altitude. Gentleman sweep for the Suns after this
Chuck is goated for life with all his hockey plugs
Probably too early but Denver have length and they all can shoot. I really don’t see anyone beside Booker and Kd giving you consistent 20 plus. Meanwhile JM can go for 20-30 anytime. Mpj can give you 18-20 and Gordon could also give you 16-20 and I didn’t even mention jokic
That was a beat down 😂😂😂
South Florida is going to be watching that game 7 too
Why these folks are the best
Murray post game is elite
If Murray can consistently give 20-25 ppg this series then it's probably a wrap.
Bubble Murray is back ‼️⚠️♨️🔥
I’ve noticed Jamal Murray is tbe opposite of most players. Has a very regular regular season but in the post? Healthy? Dudes a beast. Save it for when it counts I can respect that
Phoenix aint winning this series unless Ayton dominates the boards
Also: Tell eem Chuck! 1:01 😂😂😂
Uhm, Jokic had 19 boards...pretty clear which one of them is going to win this battle as Jokic is in his prime and Ayton is still on the young side. And then Porter and Gordon will both get their boards, Murray had five board to zero for CP3, KD is not going to make up the deficit on his own.
@@tribalypredisposed Jokic is playing to his max potential getting rough and using what he has while Ayton doesnt use any of his advantages he should not allow Jokic to push him out that easily come on.
💪🔥DENVER
This guys work fast
1.) The Nuggets looked like they were having fun. 2.) The Nuggets were not gassed because they have a deeper team with more weapons. The Suns looked gassed.
