Am I missing something?
Just seems like a pessimistic attitude to me.As Rebel stated, we're on pace to win 46 games, a probably playoff berth...what's not to like ??
Well, denver's schedule was quite easy until now so there are all the reasons to be worried...
Until Millsap injury I was quite optimistic but without him I'm not sure denver can continue on this trend (at least without Jokic playing like an MVP).
Denver season depends on Jokic, if he keeps dealing with injuries like now Denver won't reach the postseason...
While I am looking forward to Jokic return, Millsap's injury has shown us that we have other assets developing in Lyles and Beasley. Also has shown us Juancho is not full recovered yet, Arthur is declining (IMO) and Barton cannot take over this team.
Right now we're a 1/2 game out of 1st place in the Northwest, 3 games above .500 with Jokic coming back and just won our 15th game of the season, we didn't win our 15th until after Christmas last year, well above schedule. Doom-n-gloom all you want but were doing this w/o our top two players so I just don't get it. When Millsap gets back we'll be stronger for it.
