NOP is winless so far but has played hard each game. I think we can win each individual matchup but we really to continue to get better on both sides of the ball. Denver has been good on the road, I feel we'll win another.

Really loving Ball & Ingram - with Holiday back, their backcourt will be a handful.

Yeah, gotta think Murray is looking to meet up with Ball again, he just seems to enjoy playing against Ball

4 games are a small sample, but so far no anymore that giant gap in Nuggets game when they play at home and when they play on the road. Let's hope the trend will continue, and we will stay perfect on the road after third away game.

Pelicans without Zion so far have the worst record in the league, but the level of their play they showed so far is more close to the middle than to the bottom of the league, which still shouldn't be a problem for the Nuggets if they show decent game today.

Murray continues his slow starts and Craig being outplayed by Ingram, producing no offense . Frank Jackson having his way with Morris.

Anyone else see our 3-pt shots going in ??? Me either..

Jokic takes (and makes) all 5 of his shots....why only 5 ??

This is pathetic lose. Whole starting lineup and half of our bench players underperformed in the same game!? I can't be completely angry for what I see because of MPJ debut. And just like in preseason he looks like our already best SF.

First things first, the Nuggets should be ashamed of themselves. There were only 3 or 4 minutes when they were not out played by a team that had been playing well but had not won a single game.

Looking for positives:

1. Malone hates to lose and as a result, he seldom takes advantage of "garbage time". Last night he emptied his bench with 8 minutes left in the game and I was glad to see that.

2. Grant had a reasonable game on offense 7-10 with 5 boards (not sure any Nugget played any defense).

3. Plumlee had a reasonable game with 4-5 and seven boards.

4. *** Porter played 21 minutes and did not try to force his game. He tried to play team defense although he got a little lost a couple of times. He shot 5-8 with 1-3 from 3pt and 4-6 FT. He had 4 boards. That's the biggest plus I can find in this fiasco.

The Chemistry has been off all season, it is like nobody is on the same page on offense or defense depending on the game.

Morris has not seemed the same this year, something seems off with him. He is not as creative and his defense has been terrible.

We really need a shooting coach, it is like everybody outside of Beasley cannot shoot anymore.

I would love to see MPJ or Juancho with the starters, we need shooting. The Pelicans beat us because they would not cover Craig and were double Jokic all night, killing the pick and rolls and sagging a guy off to block the lane on cuts. If Harris, Murray, and whoever is at SF are not hitting shots than it falls all to Jokic carrying the offense against 2 or 3 guys on him.

I know Malone wants to be a defensive team, and that is nice, but if our offense cannot score, as it struggled in the playoffs and so far this season, than who cares if we hold the opposing team to 40% shooting when our offense does not seem to generate any more than that on an average night.

MPJ did well, Grant was good as well, other than that I am pretty disappointed with this team and it is not just last night but the entire season.

See, I can understand the DAL loss but this one was just a poor effort, doesn’t seem we’re in any kind on championship mode whatsoever
