I'll be damned. They didn't find a way to lose tonight and got their first win on Christmas in a LONG time.

They actually played like they had a chip on their shoulder and wanted to win the game. Good dub. They need to play like this every night.

It's all fun and games until you face the mighty Phoenix Suns on the court. The game is played differently when going up against the big boys of the NBA.
Denver found out the hard way.

Defense was the key in this game, no doubt about it. We pressured them on the perimeter and didn't give them time to think about their sets.
It was nice to watch a win against a really good and healthy team. Jokic's touch always surprises me, what an amazing offensive player.
Great game by Beal. He did exactly what we need from him with Book and Grayson out. He created shots and was good on defense, he put a tremendous block. 27 points.

Nice win on Christmas after all the disappointment lately.
Beal has been mostly good when he plays as expected from a 50M player. Problem is his injuries killed the positive vibe early in both seasons. Let's hope this is not the future and Big 3 can stay healthy for extended time.

Defense primarily won us this game. Then taking care of the ball, only 7 turnovers to Denver's 16. Jokic had 25 and 15 boards, but only 2 assists. Nurkic had 13 boards and 6 assists. Good win after an embarrassing losing streak capped by the worst beating they've gotten this season in Denver.
