Nuggs @ Cavs

10 deep in the 3rd, only bench player with 10+ minutes is arthur. 9 point lead.

[cold_cowboy]

well ****, when arthur is hot, he's hot.

[cold_cowboy]

good win. faried still not 100% on board it seems in terms of production. lawson looks like he's back like his old self. wonder how much time gallo needs before he's at least 80% of what he used to be..

[Powder Blue]

Pulling that out shows these guys have a little fight in em. TC needs to help Shaw out, move a couple bodies, permanently shorten the bench.

[Powder Blue]

also makes for a 2-1 roadtrip, not bad.

[cold_cowboy]

yeah, it's not the effort we're seeing from the first 6-7 games. they're adjusting, trying to figure it out. one thing for sure is what i've been saying from the beginning is that whatever we do, the 13 deep nonsense isn't going to work in shaw's "system."

i'm more in favor of moving shaw, but from what dempsey has said, the management loves him and players will probably go long before him.

Congrats - Good Game

[Powder Blue]

I don't think AAA, Ty, Mozzy and Chandler should always go 40 a night but 35ish sounds good if they're playing well. All the recovering ACL tears forced Shaw to tighten the leash and it worked. We'll see if he can stick to it.

Didn't see that coming, Cav's need some gellin' to do. How many teams have had 4 20-pt scorers and still lost the game ? And this game was without many contributions from either Faried or Gallo, two players who have really underperformed expectations for this year. Faried has been expected to expand on his impact, likened to that of his Olympics on this team and Gallo is far from getting that knee right, his injury looks like it needs a few more months on the mend.

What kills me is the impact team I can could these see guys becoming, such unfulfilled potential !! Faried, Gallo, Mozgov, JaVale...if any one or two of these guys step up their games to their potential, I only imagine. Add in a more consistent Ty Lawson, the Manimal returns and Mozgov need to step up like he did the end of the past year. there's what I want to see. This team has a streak awaiting them in the next 5-6 games, I could see a nice 3-4 game win streak that could happen. Wouldn't mind to see Nurkic and Harris a bit more, but that was nice !!

[eathb_au]

Yep, a 10 man rotation is the way to go. Hell I'd reduce it to 9 when Gallo is ready and we can swing WC to the 4 (and drop DA to DNP zone).

Didn't have a problem with the starters playing extended minutes since they were playing really well together. Wouldn't play Foye over Harris or McGee over Nurkic though.

Need to dump jj hickson, foye and nate rob for a real back up point guard and things would go a lot smoother for the rest of the year.

[StunnaStan]

It took 10 games for Darrell Arthurs chucking to payoff smfh. if they dont put together a winning streak starting tomorrow, this win just ruined our draft chances even more.

He has actually been 19 for 33 in the last 4 games. When his shot is hitting, hes a pretty solid player considering he is pretty easily our best defensive big.

[champ11]

It was nice seeing Ty play with some aggression/confidence. Geez we needed to see that. Gave Kyrie the work and they had to put LeBron on him.
