Paolo has lower center of gravity than Goga, it is harder to move him out of position.


Yeah but I saw one play and Paolo gave no resistance, Jokic is just too big. Don't think we have that player on our roster. Maybe Isaac before it's caught but otherwise he's hard to stop lol

Guys, it’s WCJ. Even Mike Malone said so.

Our bench is better than theirs. Gotta take advantage.

Denver is not a deep team at all.

I knew Ingles would be helpful for the Magic but I didn’t expect him to become our CP3/Igoudala veteran leader. The guy just exudes BBIQ.

He’s executing exactly what he was signed to do. Not flashy, but necessary sometimes.

The man is a pick and roll maestro. He has been in a groove finding guys multiple games now.

Isaac is sneaky good at weakside shotblocking, but he can't keep anyone, let alone Jokić, from taking a space they want. Once Jokić establishes the spot he wants, you're cooked.

Because he’s quick to give up his coverage and rotate instead of fighting through screens to stay with his guy - and he loves to try to crash the boards, which I respect for a little guy.

Ingles is like that veteran QB that comes into the game and immediately looks for the mismatch to exploit.

During POs as long as they have Jokic, they can still win it all with role players

Think they can reppace his sneakily hot streak shooting before POs.

Who knows... still too early to predict for me.

This Nuggets lineup has only two options to score: getting MPJ open 3 or Reggie throwing a prayer.

This looks like the gameplan we discussed today on how to beat this high energy team: make shots, don’t commit turnovers, and rebound the ball. It takes so much juice out of the team.

And yet we’re up by 3 for the moment.
