    If I was the nuggets I'd just let the Roxs shoot 3's uncontested

    Shoot more contested jumpers, that'll definitely turn things around.

    Have we really gone nearly 70 games without developing a counter for when teams take the 3 pointer away?

    It bums me out that in the 3rdQ we could 10 straight threes and still be shooting under 50%...

    Sometimes I just dont get our "team" streakiness of shooting. Its either all-in or amateur hour.

    Surely we can't keep shooting at the 1 for 11 and them 6 for 12 pace at half.....hopefully, that's the silver lining. Take Ryno and Ariza and trade them for a bag of chips.

    It's because they had two transcendent level shooters on the team with a MUCH better system of players running around screens and curls and catching and shooting.

    The Rockets just jack up a **** ton of contested 3 pters. It's different and not in a good way.

    Obviously teams are going to tighten up on the 3's against us, but to act like they are just not letting us shoot them is not true at all.

    We've missed a lot... of uncontested 3's.

    What is our worst record? Paging @J.R.
