Good test for our forwards but think about George as a guard - how are our guards going to against him?

Great fight back after weak 7-18 start of the game. Bench was great once again with Green seems extra motivated vs former team.

This is crucial game for our #3 goal, +5 on the halftime looks promising.

GREAT win tonight, takes over the 3rd seed, wins the series/tiebreaker over the Clippers and doing it on the Clips home court.

Bring on the Lakers !!

After losing Murray to stay competitive vs best teams we need Jokic to play like MVP and Porter to play like all-star every night and that's exactly what they delivered night after night.

If you ask me Dozier is already better offensively and defensively than Craig was ever. Gordon was invisible today offensively but he stopped Leonard. Millsap once again proved that bench role more suits to him.

This is one of the very best wins for the Nuggets in 2021 so far.

I love watching this team play. Everyone knows their role and the defense has really picked up as well. Jokic and MPJ were sensational as always.

... and that was a very nice win - a very nice game.

Our forwards did well against some outstanding forwards - on both ends of the court.
Our guards held their own against some very good guards - on both ends of the court.
Do we even need to say it? Our center more than held his own against their centers.

Their bench outscored ours 39-22 but our bench does not need to win the scoring battle against any team. They just need to play some decent defense and get some points. They succeeded.

It was very satisfying to watch the Nuggets play out the very close game and win.

The Nuggets played a fairly consistent game against a team loaded with veterans - a team that is still favored by many to beat the Nuggets in a seven game series.

As a neutral fan, I think this is the most enjoyable team to root for at the moment.
It's like the 2013 and 2014 Spurs, you even have a bit of argentinian madness in there, lol.
I wish either you or the Jazz come out of the west, I love home grown teams.
