Gallo is back at Nuggets roster.

I hope we learnt Phoenix lesson.

+20 in intensive first quarter, and than routinely the rest of the game. We should more often to use such formula vs weak teams and tankers instead of playing with a fire waiting for the final quarter for final push.

What an incredible 1st quarter!
2nd & 3rd quarters? Not so much but it seemed like the offense was working about the same as usual, just nobody could hit a shot. They weren't really bad quarters. However this is where I wish they'd toss the ball to Jokic and then cut to the basket, as in move! There is too much standing around and cutting to the basket takes advantage of Jokic's greatest skill - his passing.

4th quarter was slightly better than the 2nd & 3rd quarters and overall, it was a satisfying game IMO.

Statistic that seems most significant to the win? 62-45 dominance on the boards with 17 offensive rebounds.
5 boards for Murray & Harris & Beasley
8 boards for Barton
9 boards for Plumlee
9 boards for Millsap
17 boards for Jokic

Last night's game was how most good teams handle bad, build a big lead and coast, the Nuggets just do it so rarely that I think it has thrown some of us off.
