    I don’t think the Lakers are better. SAS is a toss up. We don’t have an answer for Wemby. I don’t think a Denver or OKC series would be particularly close. If Houston loses tonight it’ll mean they have lost to OKC with no JW, Denver with no AG and Denver again with no AG,Braun and Watson and they lost to SAS. Have they beat a top West team yet?

    Terrible close to the half, we’re making a lot of mistakes and the Nuggets are capitalizing on EVERY SINGLE ONE.

    I don’t mind the technicals, there’s some absolute BS not getting called and sometimes you gotta let the refs know.

    I think the altitude has deprived oxygen to the brains of both the refs and our players.

    We’re down but somehow I’m feeling confident about this game. We’re unfocused and squandered our lead due to clumsy passes and TO. Our guys gonna hear it during the half and see what we’re made of

    Nuggets just look like the better team.

    Sengun wins the matchup against Wemby almost every time. Wemby struggles defensively against any strong, skilled center. too skinny

    It’s crazy how Amen layups are so very often a guaranteed 4 pt swing. Saw twice this half. He sucks so bad at finishing a lay up.

    2 of the zebras are incompetent newbies and the crew chief zach zarba typically favors the home crowd

    Sengun needs to go back to what he was doing in the 1st quarter.

    i don't get how this team is so careless with the ball.

    being young is not a valid reason.

    Adams is useless if he can't grab offensive boards

    2 stars showed up but no one else did


    Amen can’t make a layup
    Reed can’t make a three
    Adams no rebounds

    It’s gross how badly the refs want Jokic to win and be the better player against Sengun. They just don’t call **** for us.

    The refs have been terrible but we need to quit complaining, quit TURNING THE BALL OVER, and man the **** up.

    17ppg 11rpg 3.6bpg isn't a struggle. The only thing that has held him back from monster games is bad three-point shooting. That is it.

    Nah, Jokic is too smart and knew when to be aggressive when their guys were struggling. He read our offense like a book and break the passes and let Amen just go full speed by him because he knew he wasn’t gonna finish with that speed
