Game 1, we held them to 95. Game 2 we held them to 93. Let’s go for 91 next time.

I honestly wondered for a moment if he could be an adjustment they'd make

Now that the game is over I can watch it on league pass. I'm kind of nervous about this one.

Your guys look better and better, the farther DLo gets in the rear view mirror. Kinda sad that Denver is in the same half of the bracket; that would have been an awesome WCF.

I’m going to read the Game Thread on the General Board, hoping to see a post that says, “Who is this Jaden McDaniels fellow?”

Remember ya'll, a similar Suns team last year took Denver to 6 games. Just saying.

Yea, we just held serve. That's amazing and now e just need to play .500 ball to win the series. That said, the Suns are not dead. Will be some tough road games for us.

Suns still a good team and not thinking pass them yet. Although I can't wait to visit the Suns board and read how Booker (Towns) is mentally weak. Allen's (JMcd) new contract is overpaid. Beal (Gobert) is too one dimensional.

I've been watching and rooting for you guys all season. I was worried about the Suns matchup, but I also forgot what kind of defense the team is capable of when they go full throttle. I think as long as you maintain the defensive energy, and have and average offensive night, you should take this series in 5 or 6.

It's just too bad you are stuck with unplayable, overrated Rudy. What a shame.

Also, it's not too late for the Jazz to give you 1 or 2 of your draft picks back for Jaden. :wink: Still wish you guys would have traded him to us. :lol:

I don't think any of us are getting cocky or overconfident. We are happy with the win and feel good about being up 2-0. :D
