Great game from Zach

DeMar started off slow but turned it up in the 3rd for a good, not great game

Ayo playing with confidence

Nice game from DJJ. Seems as though he’s suited to play the 4 and small ball 5.

Closer than what it should have been with no Joker and Murray, but happy to close out the road trip with a win and snapping a long losing streak in the mile high city.

Discuss…

I don't care how we won this game, after such a long road trip, getting this win in Denver is huge, with or without their best player.

This has been a great road trip as far as I'm concerned.

THAT's how you beat a team of Prime Jordan, Italian Curry, and Will Barton.

Successful west coast road trip.

Would've been excellent had we not blown the Portland game.

Oh well.

If you had told me we would be 11-5 after our opening schedule, I would've taken it in a heartbeat.

Not very impressed with this win....imagined if Jokic actually played.

Refs were awful though.

Getting a W all the while getting away on a long road trip. Winning record.

Hell yes.

Not sure DD turned it up in the 3rd. He was missing way to many shots. He just was able to get to the line in the 4th to seal the win.

Win's a win but this one was ugly. I don't like this offense at all. Too much isolation which I don't think will work in the playoffs vs good defenses.

Caruso struggling with his shot a little bit, but everything else is on point.

Coby White is entirely out of wack. Too early to sound the alarm, but he clearly looks like a fish out of water on this team right now.

I hope Patrick Williams is taking notes of Javonte Green. THAT is how he needs to play.

**** Denver. **** the refs. **** that arena.

Stressful game but happy with the win. Woulda been 4-1 if it weren't for the POR meltdown but it is what it is.

Thankful for Lavine and Derozan. After years of offensive mediocrity I'll never take for granted having two legit offensive options.

Need to get the Knicks back for the loss early in the season.

Zach and Demar with 42 second half points

I thought Barton worked him over a few times pretty good.

Javonte and DJJ played key roles. Massive win and great to have a winning record on this road trip without Vuc.

Just like any loss is a bad loss, any win is a good win!

Should of won that Portland game but meh.

I'll take a 3-2 road trip and tied for 1st in the east

Thank God.

I do not care in the slightest that they we're missing Joker and we barely won.

The west coast swing us a beast, in mile high, without Vooch, they came out with a dub.

The W is all I care about in this one.

The rule changes have helped DeMar so much. The floppers all the sudden can't get to the line, but DeMar gets there at will. He's got an old school game that's really accentuated now that the floppers have come back down to earth.

If you factor in actual context, long road trip, playing at a place we haven't won in years, in Denver with the altitude no less; any road trip even against even bad teams can be difficult, mustering up the energy and will to win on the road after being away from home for so long takes focus and determination.

Yeah, you may not be impressed, but I am feeling the opposite.
