It's too early in the season fo a "must win"... so how about we call this a "can't lose"

Hmm, isn't that what the Lakers game was?

No Malone tonight, I wonder how Jokic will respond with Millsap being out

Faried is gonna kill. The faried-Jokic combo is awesome and should be used for all the mins that millsap doesn’t play.

I like Faried in starting lineup too . This team really missed his energy and agility.

Jokic is non existing again , I don't think he's worthy of max deal

I think last week Jokic just refused to accept the role of the team star. Tonight he is just waiting for the game to come to him and not really trying anything except setting solid screens.

Is it possible that Zack Randolph is out-dribbling Barton on the top and driving pass him for a lay up...lol .

And Jokic bitching to the refs too much lately if you ask me.

Now they are having fun!!!

Well, tied with POR for top spot in the division, a much needed win

Like the results although the game seemed a little weird. Thought we'd see more Beasley with Barton playing SF - probably should have seen more Beasley based on the way Mudiay played.

Liked seeing Hernangomez playing again - last couple of games were just limited minutes warm-ups.

Faried didn't score much but he impacted the game - like what I say of Lyles, liking him more and more.

Regardless of what everyone things, Plumlee played a decent game - especially for a backup center. But that leads to a question: since Jokic & Plumlee often play side-by-side, how come Nurkic & Jokic couldn't? Could it be a change in the offense?

Harris is looking better and better; improving a little bit but being consistent for the most part. Some of those shots were impressive plus he drives to the hoop well.

Murray didn't seem to have that great of a game IMO and then I look at the box score and it looks pretty good: 18 pts in 24 minutes - seems like he should get a few more minutes some day. His good games are beginning to out number his bad ones.

Nurkic and Jokic could have played together in the offense ran by Jokic. Besides the obvious issues that would occur on defense, I think the bigger issue there is Nurkic being selfish. The article that came out really showed that IMO. Surprised he asked for a trade when he was trying to come back from injury and playing awful a couple years ago. Makes me lose most respect I had for him.

As for Murray, he didn't look that good until the 4th quarter when he went off for 14 points. He really helped put the dagger in at the end which was good to see.

Great win again. The thing about Murray is his hot & cold switch. Once he is hot, he is Steph Curry. Once he is cold, he is borderline bench player. Once he sort out this inconsistency, he will be the secret weapon we all need to fit next to Jokic.

Wouldn't it be nice to win our game against Rockets? That would be a statement....
