A loss tonight guarantees the 13th spot in the draft.

On half-time Nikola Jokic 16-6-5-5 is halfway from first ever NBA quadruple double in XXI century!
OK, this will not happen at end (this is already his personal best for blocks) but how many such first half 4x5+ achievements is ever happen in NBA history? Less than 30 very probably.

Arthur did not have a great game
Miller did not have a great game
Hernangomez did not have a great game
Plumlee had a good game
Jokic had a great game
Murray had a great game
Beasley had a Wow-game!

+/- rankings aren't a great stat, but they do tell part of the story about total impact on the game

Arthur -5
Miller -4
Murray 0
Hernangomez +3
Plumlee +8
Jokic +9
Beasley +19 <--- that's huge

Finished the season at 40-42, seven games better than last year and 6 more than Vegas predicted.

There were frustrating moments and I know many prefer to be much worse or much better out of fear of getting stuck in the middle, bit the trajectory is clearly up.

A lot to be excited about. Such a young core.

After the Jurkic experiment we landed at 9-16, put Jokic in and ended up at 40-42 meaning we were 31-26 since Nikola became a starter. The NBA schedulers didn't do us any favors early on either but it does show we CAN be an above .500 team even with all our youth
