Nuggets vs Bulls

[Powder Blue]

Foye out 3 weeks with right quad tear, Mcgee to sit a few games with tibia soreness.

Rose in, Noah out

Hinrich listed as questionable too. On a back-to-back and on the end of 5 game road trip, seems like prime opportunity for a W. They barely beat UTAH and I think we are better than the Jazz.

Ty with 6 assists in the first 5 minutes....

Gasol giving Mozgov the work though

[eathb_au]

Had to wonder why the ball was not replayed at Gallo's "reviewed out of bounds", and instead they let Gasol keep his 3 point play.

Then again 30+ FTA for a non-FT shooting team, probably speaks that the refs were bad.

[Powder Blue]

Game was a little too tight at the end...mostly due to poor officiating. Guys are making shots down the stretch, that's a good sign

[skywalker33]

Nuggets shot just over 50% for the game, sure like to see that. Ty was ballin', six starters in double figures including all 5 starters.

denver is full of surprises. i wouldnt have guessed theyd follow up a 6 game losing streak with winning 5 out of their last 6.

now that were back at .500, these next 6 games are big. suns back to back will be tough, portland clubbed denver last time, and for some reason denver always plays bad againast washington, and atl shouldnt be slept on. hopefully they can keep the streak rolling through all of this

I took my son to the game last night, and have a couple of questions.

a few things that stuck out last night.
Did they say why McGee was not playing, another rotation change, injury, fighting with Shaw?

Overall it seemed like Gallo was finally more of himself last night, he was somewhat aggressive and making shots, the shot they took away from him was crazy, off balance out of bounds 3 and it went right in.

The officiating was terrible last night, the were really beating the hell out of the Nuggets and fouls were not being called yet the Nuggets could not do a whole lot without the whistle being blown.

Shaw really does not like Faried, I do not know what the deal is, or why but it was pretty obvious. 1 play I seen Faried was guarding Mirotic near the perimeter, Mozgov had the rebound and Faried sprinted down the court, Mozgov than lost the ball due to being hacked hard, and the Bulls grabbed it and layed it up. From the minute Faried started down the court Shaw was standing there obviously staring at Faried ignoring what happened under the basket.

Speaking of Shaw for him reportedly being such a likeable guy he does not get any respect from refs, and for some reason does not seem to even chat them up very much, to me part of the coaches jobs are to work the refs, especially when there are so many terrible calls all night.

Javale slightly aggravated his tibia on a rebound against the lakers and theyre saying hes day to day.

Sucks with the way he was playing prior to that. Hopefully this was just a short term setback but it is nice that we have the depth that we do for situations like this. Hickson fairs far better as a 5th big.
