    Seriously, F this schedule. When the schedule came out, I already penciled this one as a loss. 2nd night of a back to back, 3 games in 4 days, playing a double-OT game that started late against the Warriors? If we win this, it would be more impressive than the last night's win to me. These dudes must have no legs. We're going to see a lot KJ, Nene, and even Ennis.

    WIN. Rockets have a better defense than the Nuggets. We will enjoy another mile high score.

    classic let down spot but I do think the rockets continue their momentum from last night and pull out a win in a likely closer than it should be game

    If we want any chance of winning we're going to need more Brewer.

    Not worried about Denver as a team. Only worried about the altitude and being tired after double OT last night. If we can keep it close through half way through the 4th, I think our talent will close the game out with a win for us. It will be a big statement if we can pull it off, especially after last night's win.

    Denver is sneaky good. Their rebounding numbers are insane. Clint and Nene are going to have to have good games for us to win. Good thing those guys got rest last night.

    Dekker, Harrell, Capella are young and should be able to play. Ennis and KJ may see some time. Nene should be fresh.

    You know who matched up well with Nurkic in the past? D-Mo.

    I fully expect to come out super dead, but we did take the night off Tuesday against the Jazz so they owe us fans a decent effort at least.

    My thoughts exactly.

    We got this. Didn't we smash Portland not long ago after a b2b, and they had rested?

    And did you see the way Harden literally bounced off the court in GS after his post game interview? He's still fresh!

    The guys will be fired up and full of confidence, that will overcome any fatigue.
