    Pass was deemed un-oop-able

    No foul on the play, turnover on downs

    Denver did this without chandler and Gallo . They should have gotten rid of them . Barton , Harris , Murray and hernangomez are solid young players and play better D .

    Harden with no elite physical tools (aside from stopping fast of course), Ran the length of the court for the slowest game-winning layup in franchise history. No one thought to pick Harden up because he was going so slow; they thought he was standing still.

    DEN seems to have better chance against GSW than POR or DAL

    they need to get that defense fixed if they want to get to the next level...they're right up there with the best of them offensively, but they have major issues defensively

    not sure how good your team is gonna be defensively when Jokic is your starting C

    It took him 4 minutes. Had to weave through the traffic. It's not like he had a wide open lane.

    And what is elite physical tools. Lol

    I agree but yeah, Gallo is 90% gone anyway, Chandler wil be traded next season (if not this summer) i guess...Juancho is really good, that's why i was saying they would've had little to no interest in Dekker at the trade deadline, Juancho is less athletic but a better shooter.

    I wouldn't be that concerned . Marc gasol isn't exactly a freak athlete and he's been an elite defensive center for 5 years now .

    C is a tough position to learn and this is Jokics first year starting . First year carrying the load etc .

    With his BBIQ he will learn to be a solid defender . Plus who is to say that with further NBA training he can't improve his body .

    Denver has always been a bit stubborn in not giving up players . They could have gotten a 1st for either of those guys and chose not to . Maybe those guys help them this year , but Denver isn't a contender quite yet . I think future assets would have helped more.

    Also, team needs to build confidence here at the end of the regular season when they face adversity. Blowing teams out is all fine and good but this team, as currently constructed, isn't battle tested.

    Late March/April showers bring May and June powers.
