Denver Nuggets vs Phoenix Suns Game 3 Full Highlights | 2023 WCSF | FreeDawkins

[@TheLoxely]

Insane scoring from D Book & KD tonight. 20/25 for 47 from Book is crazy efficiency. You just hope they don't have to do that to win every time, I don't know if you can expect that level of scoring from the both of them every single night. If they can that will be remarkable, keen to see how this series continues. Also S/O to my Aussie guy Jock Landale, had some great minutes tonight

[@v-22]

Fr? That is insanely efficient

[@christian.antoni]

Josh Landale playing better D than Ayton. He's not playing soft. Monty have to takeout ayton at 4th after seeing his 3rd Q effort

[@mjkittredge]

That's the problem with the 2 man team as it currently stands - they DO have to do that every time in order to win. They don't have anyone else who can produce for them

That dunk on Durant was vicious

[@Nerveroxis]

Denver just simply gets easier shots. Phoenix as 2 of the best difficult shot makers in the league, but it seems like Durant and Booker have to combine for 70+ to have a chance win and that's a tough to do in the next 3 out of 4 games.

[@atomsk1972]

I didn't see this. The Sun's had the Nuggets defence in a spin cycle for many plays. The difference was really Booker's shooting percentage and volume, when both Jokic and Murray played well.

[@harderway8568]

@@atomsk1972 The difference was KD had 16 free throws, and the Nuggets missed 3-4 clean look 3pts in the last quarter. KD and Booker combined for 86pts, will hardly happen ever again.

I don't really think so, Murray was taking though shot over and over again. Also, it's sustainable for KD and Booker to play at that level, that's what they did the whole first round. Ayton has to play better tho.

[@DipsAndPushups]

Booker was out of this world the entire game. Durant in the end hit all those midranges that were basically like layups to him. In the beginning of the 4th quarter when Jokić was off the court the Nuggets' offense looked clueless as if they don't know how to run the offense without Jokić. Several of the Nuggets' important shots in the 4th quarter were dancing on the rim only to not go in. With a little bit of luck Denver would have won this game. I am still optimistic for Jokić and his team to win the championship this year. Anyways, what a matchup. Suns vs Nuggets are a historic matchup, Booker and Durant vs Jokić and Murray and in general both of these teams are really good.

[@recration]

I am starting to really respect Jokic's greatness. The dude is a pure baller. Boring and not flashy to a lot of people, which is also why some people don't understand his greatness, but INCREDIBLY effective at facilitating and getting buckets. He can bully himself through to the basket, he has an impeccable touch for a big man, he can shoot, he can pass; he can do anything. But man respect to Book as well. Dude is putting up mvp numbers. He is the golden boy, which is why a lot of people hate on him, but you gotta give respect where it is due. Best player in the playoffs by far. And Kd... dude is overrated. People think he is top 10 all time because he has the ideal basketball build and shooting, but in reality he just can't do it himself. He does not have that killer mentality. He needs other superstars to win a chip. How can you crumble at shooting when you are 7 feet and literally nobody can guard your shooting?

[@HiveMind629]

Every player from lebrons era and after needs superstars to win

[@oskarnogalski8178]

Personally, the Suns only won this game because Booker carried them until KD was scoring again. Well, that and KD got 14-16 ft this game. Mark my words, I enjoyed Jokić down the stretch, but the Nuggets would have won if he had begun hard driving by himself earlier between the third and fourth. Both Booker and Jokić went nuts, but those KD free throws really killed it.

[@goldy9428]

Tonight, I saw KD play with heart. He needs the mindset he had in okc to get passed this young nuggets team. Book is going to Book night in night out however DA has been almost absent as a big man. No aggression which is necessary to slow the joker machine because you cant stop him. Denver has too many pieces which makes it difficult for suns matchups on D. If CP comes back bring him off the bench to create a spark in the role players. One thing is for sure, the best team will take the series
