Kolek is a player...he's just the 4th PG on a roster with Brunson, McBride, & Payne.

Dadiet's shot wasn't falling today and the kid still needs polish before he's ready for a regular shift, but I like him too.

But yeah, we've got just 9 guys who are ready to contribute night in & night out...and one of those 9 is Mitch.

Brunson: So what are you paid to do?
Hart: Run around like an idiot during the game and f*** s*** up!

Deni needs more minutes, but I'm not exactly sure who you take out for him if Camara, Grant, Ayton, Clingan and Timelord are healthy.

Porter is such a bad player other than shooting. Just terrible to watch.

The refs need to be investigated for the way they've handled the 2nd half. Just an absolute joke. And they wonder why ratings are down

Russ has been amazing.

Great to see him stick it to the haters. Fine player, much maligned and misunderstood

This Denver team is comedic relief. I just want them to make it to the playoffs because I still think they would be a tough out as i believe they have another gear to hit.

I'm a Portland fan, and F the refs. That is not a foul. Good grief, THAT is why viewership is down.
