Well, I will go out on a limb here and predict a win tonight, even against an inferior team. Have to keep pace with the Jazz tonight.

LOL ... I don't think I'm as brave as you are. I guess I will predict it somebody wins tonight.

Did you see that statistic that the nuggets are 14-1 when they shoot 23 or more free throws?

Damn'... just when you think we will make some routine win vs mediocre team, Murray injury comes right from nowhere. I think we lost Murray for 3+ weeks and counting some time of shape recovery, seems that we lost our 2nd best player until all-star break. Which is worse, Gary Harris is still injured, so our backcourt line is devastated just when we have several tough games vs playoff teams.

Monte Morris and Barton should start the games as starting guards until Harris comeback, with MPJ promoted as new starting SF. Starter or not, MPJ must take 25mpg daily, even more until Millsap is injured and play some PF minutes too. PJ Dozier should play, and Beasley gets 20 minutes.

MPJ has spectacular 1st half today, Dozier spectacular 2nd half debut, sad all that is overshadowed with Murray injury.

MPJ back on track, should've had more PT IMO. PJ Dozier had a nice first game (other than 4 fouls ???) 12/4/2 in 13mins....not bad !!

Very unfortunate about Murray, hope it's not too serious and he recovers soon !!

Porter Jr was impressive. There were some obvious defensive improvements in his game tonight. I think we are going to see a lot more of MPJ.
Canned in Denver.

23+ FTs ...
With injuries, it's time to move Porter into the starting lineup and Barton to the guard position.

This was a very nice team win.
