    Nope. They burned their last timeout earlier in order to advance the ball when they were down 4(I think).

    This really did remind me of the Detroit game. There's no shame in losing to the Nuggets, but it just frustrates me that so many opportunities were blown. Reed bricking 2 free throws, Amen missing layups and floaters, Alpi not being able to finish around the basket, KD letting himself get taken out by double teams, and Jabari stepping out of bounds and missing from the corner.

    In a 7 game series I'd take Houston. We would tire Denver out. Once both teams know each other deep in a series Rockets have the advantage. I saw that tonight.

    Fun game but at times frustrating to watch. Denver’s defense deserves a lot of credit. Reed needs more plays. Ime’s offensive coaching shortcomings are exposed in games like this.

    True, at least we would have been down by 20 instead of losing a close game. Far more maddening. Still, you can always watch him sitting in the bench at Phoenix.

    Ime, KD, and Sengun all work for Vegas. Especially Ime.

    2 shots for reed in the second half is a fireable offense

    Jamal Murray still has athleticism and quickness. KD looks like he's moving in quicksand sometimes with the ball.

    Reed can't touch the ball in 2nd half.

    Ime did nothing.

    To be fair, Sengun had been shooting 45% from 3 before this game. LOL.

    Ime wasted Reed’s stamina by playing him on 3rd while not utilizing him. He is not used to playing heavy minutes and bound to get tired

    They got lucky and lack of effort from Sengun. Sengun really screwed Amen over by not showing on those picks. Jones for the Nuggets hit those 2 dagger 3's.
