To me, this is a FOCUS game. TOR has a lot of talent but we should be able to win, especially at home. We have had a tendency to skate on the 2nd of B2B's but with that 3rd seed so close, this has to be a win.

We're probably aiming for that 3rd seed, but MPJ perhaps should sit this one out for precautionary measures.

Terrible defense in the first half, the Raptors got way too many wide open looks from 3.

Our bench outscored Raptors bench 23-4 otherwise it would be a very bad first half.

Nuggets flipped the switch in the 4th and the bench unit took over. Starters got a nice break.

Saturday- Clippers, Sunday-Lakers (LeBron's probably coming back).

Big credit to the bench for this win. In a 2nd game of b2b games they should always try to put efforts like this.

Guess I was wrong. Haha... Just glad MPJ is totally ok.

Loved the hustle of our bench. Seems like the energy Harrison brings is contagious! The Raptors got a few fast break opportunities that our bench actually hustled back and caused Toronto problems - specifically Harrison, Dozier, Rivers, Green. Those four playing with Millsap seemed like a good combination.

Few seconds during that MPJ's ankle injury scare vs Pelicans I literally declared to myself Nuggets 2021 postseason already over with 0-4 1st round early exit.

Greensap redeemed themselves
