Devin Booker being legendary.

So happy he's got his 3 point shot back after 5 years.

EXACTLY! They just set a very, very bad precedent with that retroactive tech.

If it's in the rulebook, fine. I've never seen it happen though.
And TNT not even mentioning it. :crazy:

It shouldn't have to be stated but we need to feed Ayton since we can't expect to keep up this hot shooting from the perimeter.

Dude has been invisible in this game on offense although we hadn't really had to go to him yet.

In the games we've lost, we didn't come out in the second half strong at all

Ayton already looks like he's coasting.

We haven't gotten to the rim well.

Refs clearly a bit spooked.

Game is FAR from over. Focus and intensity. Keep up the good defense. Play hard, find good shots. One half left but it will still take our best effort!

Ayton v Jokic is going to be epic.

Going against the MVP in his 3rd year.

They beat us back to back at home and we owe them 2-0.

Ayton had been invisible because the Lakers are literally giving the 3'sfor us with this 3-2 matchup zone.

This is like the ultimate win. Had them choking on the fresh taste of air early in the first and let them die a slow death.

Booker is looking great so far but I have a feeling he'll need to score 50 for us to hold on for the win.

Refs owe us like... 4 games against Denver that they stole in the past two seasons.

He's been invisible because he's fumbled the ball 3-4 times already in the first half.

Sounds like Caruso sprained his ankle in the first half

I've noticed when Booker dribbles less (into traffic) the more efficient he is, that's been a huge factor in tonight.

I expect Monty told them that this is far from over. We've blown enough 20pt leads this season to last a lifetime.
