Pretty good match ups for this game, seems the only advantage we have is at the C position, most all are pretty even IMO. Tatum may have an advantage but Millsap will be tough on him. Both benches seem up to the task as well.

Good game ahead, hope we have the same intensity as we did against Harden and the Rockets.

Denver definitely started to play games now since start, not 2nd half only, so we looks scary strong. Starting lineup is great, defense great as well (especially on Tatum and Brown). Let's hope this great game will not be overshadowed by Kemba Walker injury and that his neck is OK.

Great win against another winning team, seems we can vanquish the big boys in the EC as well as hang with our own WC foes.Feels like we're the best team in the West as I really don't see the Lakers as really having played anyone of real consequence so far. Love that this was against the Celtics, always one of my favorite victories !!

I didn't see drama is coming. Around 20 lead with opponent star out, so we counted this win little bit too early. Tatum and Brown started game with 2-18 but finished 10-13, and our offense start to struggle, so our lead suddenly down to just -1 in the last 3 minutes. But there is no panic, Nuggets are young team but already one of the best in clutch moments and tight ends.

Jokic #3 triple-double with finally some 15+ rebounding game this season, another Murray confident 20+5+5+ game, Millsap double-double with his career-best insine 3pt% and FT% percentages continues, Barton, used to be our biggest weakness this season already has more strong performances than entire last season. Defensively, once again we forced an elite opponent under 100 points, so, with b2b wins vs HOU and BOS at home our start of the season looks way more promising than week ago.

Finally got around to watching the game.

Loved the defensive effort to start the game.
Loved seeing Jokic take an early shot.
Loved Millsap's intensity to start the game.
Bench kept up the intensity when they came in.

The Nuggets seem to play better when they get a good start. Of course so do most teams.

As the game progressed, the Nuggets seemed to lose some of their intensity and became rather complacent. The game should never have been as close as it was at the finish.

Boston anouncers clearly do not watch many Nuggets' games. They made statements like "Denver will concede 3 point shots by going under the screens". I think a team's announcer should favor their team - a little. But these guys think almost every call that doesn't favor Boston is a bad call.

Nuggets seemed to take the foot off the peddle at the end of this game after a big lead. The Nuggets seem to play to the level of competition even during a game.
