I hope we get this road trip off on the right foot, but this looks like a beating waiting to happen.

I can’t believe there’s already another 5 game west coast road trip. If we can just find a way to get 2 wins, we will be in good shape.

Didn’t plan to watch this one, but my wife’s gotta work second today so I’ll probably endure. Looking forward to seeing if we make it interesting or if it’s just a slaughter.

Houston should be a free win, so they really just need to win one of the next four and they'll still be over .500.

Denver is a bad matchup, but it could be worse. They at least have some defensive deficiencies we can exploit to hopefully make up for Jokic thrashing our bigs.

Lakers without AD are beatable and not really a bad matchup. This team should have a huge chip on their shoulder because they've lost to Lebron like a million times in a row.

Clippers are good, but inconsistent and they don't have the star bigs that are really difficult for this team to beat.

San Antonio is pretty good, but nothing special.

They *should* be able to get two wins. I'll be impressed if they get three. One wouldn't be the end of the world because the schedule is quite a bit easier after the Phoenix game in late March, but they need to start doing more than just treading water at some point.

Well, we don’t look like scrubs so far. Nice work there, Gordo.

Denver has been super sloppy with the ball so far.

They keep this up and we're a real chance at stealing a win.

We have had a ton of good shots so far, a few that just haven’t dropped.

Does Jokic always look like he has a cold?

I think we underestimate our team. Jokic is a nightmare for us, but I think it will be close. Very close.

Our guys have been left surprisingly wide open. It seems Denver barely bothered to prepare for this game.

You can't pass the ball to yourself! That's a continuation.
