Probably no Jokic - does not look good for the Nuggets. Biggest question in my mind is who is going to stop Bradley & Thomas? Harris can do a good job on one of them, but Nelson? I don't think so. It's not his forte.

How about protecting that 4th quarter lead for a change? Let's go Nugs!

Plumlee may not be producing as much as Nurkic, but he has really helped our cause tonight.

Nugs are dodging a lot of bullets out there. Too many open looks for Boston.

This one's in the bag! First time i've seen Hibbert in action and actually score in a Nugs uniform.

Oof. Nice win guys. Jokic is a machine. You got a cornerstone there.

See you next season. (Or, in the Finals.)

Boston missed a bunch of shots but we played good D and physical down the stretch. Why can't these guys produce this effort more consistently

P.S. Does Malone get any calls? Seems like he can't work the refs for anything

What a game. Jokic was crazy good again. Gallinari, Chandler, Murray, Barton and Plumlee all solid as well.

Well, THAT was FUN

Next season it is cuz we both know this is the last game vs. the C's this year. Good luck for the rest of the season.

We appreciate you coming around but it also makes me remember, where are all those celtics fans who were around here talking about how much we were over-valuing Nurkic?

That's not a nice thing to say; true, but sounds like a "sore winner". (In RealGM terms, it's close to trolling/baiting.) Let's play nice with others please.

I am amazed at production Celtics are able to get out of their roster, I wish Nuggets were half as successful.
Boston should have traded for Nurk for sure he is exactly what they need. It would have been a huge upgrade for them.

Super impressed with Jokic. I knew he was a stud, but the ball handling and passing is really nice. hope you guys can continue to build a nice team.

I was surprised the Cs didn't. I know they have Zizic coming over and you don't want too many guys with names that end with a c, but sure could have used Nurkic and it appears we could have put forth a competitive offer. Also he would not have crushed the free agent dream cap space wise. Oh well.

Totally agree with you, but Nuggets' posters have been told in no uncertain terms by enough Boston fans that we are idiots for think Nurkic has any real value and that (slight exaggeration coming) Zizic will be the greatest center in the history of basketball.

I agree with Acountant_Z that I look for the Nuggets to be half as successful in building, as the Celtics have been.
What Acountant_Z didn't say is that I'm also looking forward to seeing the Nuggets kick the Celtics right out of a championship series. Said with serious respect! Love the Celtics. Stay the course and with your upcoming picks/stashes, it ought to be fun!

I was very impressed with your victory last night. I don't understand why Murray isn't starting though. I had him as the 2nd best player in last year's draft. When he gets erratic minutes you get erratic production. He's still very young and the future is bright for him. He and Jokic are two outstanding building blocks. It looks like Plumlee has been a nice addition. Too bad you couldn't work things out with Nurkic but at least now you have a guy who knows his place, plays hard, and is seemingly more team oriented. If you play like you did last night you will be a very tough out in the playoffs.

I want this team to make the playoffs. They are really coming around.

Jucic is waking up the NBA

Gallo is quietly having a strong season where he is becoming even more efficient. His shooting keeps rising.

Chandler despite possibly saying some dumb stuff is playing very well also.

Muarry is going to be very good.

Harris plays both ends of the court.

Bring on the Warriors!!!
