    It will be much tougher once Murray is back, but they're not scared. Ime's got them wanting to take it against the best of the best no doubt!

    Love it!

    Keeping Nuggets at 86 is crazy. Even without Murray they average about 110. They had never scored less than 100 this season.

    Wow imagine Api developing a more consistent Mid Range and Long Range!!! Skies the limit!!

    I think if he steps into it with more confidence, it would be better.

    Goodness, this is fun ! Each night stands on it's own but, we have some outstanding young talent that is going to wow us at times. At other times, we will shake our heads and say we have a bunch of role players. This is legitimate NBA talent. The team is still finding itself...where everything fits. You take the young talent and combine it with the veteran presence ....I think we have really have something cooking. The next step is to win on the road...it's coming...VERY SOON.

    The team has 7 starter caliber players (starters plus Amen+Tari) and 3 good role players (Tate,Jeff,Holiday). They just need another big back-up and Cam's progress.

    Dallas would be a great place to start for a whole host of reasons

    Nice game on a beautiful Friday night.

    Sengun is definitely my current favorite player on this squad.

    Only OKC and Wolves has better points difference in the West. The future is bright.

    Jabari playing really well lately. I'm glad none of CF are GMs. You guys would of been trading everyone away. Silas basketball was so so bad that the majority of us were fooled that we would even have 5 wins for the first 20 games of the season.

    Did you pick up an in season tournament towel and have a strange desire to mail it to some weirdo in Australia by any chance?

    We did the NBA a huge favor! No team would be stupid enough to higher Silas as a head coach ever!! Sad that it had to be the Rockets to expose it.

    This one was quite enjoyable watching the young guys shine. Brooks would better serve the team by sticking to his early season decision making. He’s been tripping for about three games straight on his shot selection. Well, until we kick Dallas in the ass, goodnight gentlemen!

    I see us winning and sometimes I'm like, how are we winning? The offensive schemes still look sort of sad but I think the defense is making a difference. Sort of how UH relies on it so much and it helps them. Just imagine if we can one day pair nice flowing offense with the improved defense.

    Also, I like Ime's demeanor at the press conference, he's all business, sort of like Popovich.

    Looking forward to seeing Amen rejoin the team eventually. He's such a good team-player.
