AD listed as questionable due to sore back.
KCP out for DEN due to ankle injury.

Play Jones on the Joker and Beverly on Murray.

This team better show some pride, desire, and fire.

Let's go get this Lakers! :clap:

Up 4 at half. Denver couldn't hit anything in the second quarter. Love to say it was great defense but that was only half of it. On to the dreaded 3rd quarter.

This Russ off the bench move might actually salvage his career

Westbrook has been a difference maker so far tonight.

We'll see if we can finish this one off. 9 point laker lead with 8min left

Gorgeous shot by LBJ.
Let’s play some D now.

We’re letting them back in the game.

C’mon guys!

Russ with the nice offensive rebound and then drive for lay up.

AD hurt his back again

What a game from Russ tonight! Big plays on both ends. I've been saying he has to come off the bench since the day we acquired him. Great win! Let's hope this is the game that turns things around.

Reaves is looking so good.

Nice defense, and there’s still lots of room for improvement.

Coach Ham took timely timeouts, made solid substitutions. Seems to have a good feel for the game. I love how defense seems to be the first priority.

The offense sucks, is completely reliant upon individual bravado and simple pick n roll.

Lonnie Walker-Klutch surprised on both ends, but I liked his defensive effort a lot. Reaves is this team’s Caruso and Ryan is the Medvedenko. Beverly needs to fix his shot in a big way, it’s currently two motions not one.

It helped that the Nuggets had injuries but I’ll take it. This game is good evidence for why Russ and LBJ better play in different units.

Not bad at all. So we are not going 0-10 after all. Great. 8-)

Lonnie Walker has a once in a lifetime opportunity this year. Never again will he be in a position/role where he is the third offensive option next to two hall of famers. I hope understands this moment for himself.

Agreed. And if he truly does, he’ll focus his efforts on defense so that he can earn the extension of this opportunity. In other words, if I were him I’d play my %^*#+^ arse off on defense to avoid being relegated to the bench.

I hope we keep this formula of playing westbrook off the bench really milk it and see how it goes. If this strategy gives us a winning percentage the next 10 games, I say we keep westbrook and go to war.
