3 Brooklyn starters will not play so we should win this at home with or without (doubtful) Jokic.

Jokic is playing (already 20-5-6 at halftime) against a weak opponent so I have no problem because some other starters take virtual rest-day, but it is still strange to see that 36y old veteran Westbrook cares more in such games than players in their prime!? At halftime Westbrook alone 11-7-3 while Murray+MPJ+Braun together 11-3-4

Jamal didn't play in the second half, which triggered MPJ and Braun to take this game way more seriously after the halftime pause. Westbrook's passion was awarded; he became the first player in NBA history tonight with more than 200 triple-doubles! Also, there are about 15 cases in NBA history in which teammates from the same team made triple-doubles in the same game, and Westbrook is involved in 3 such cases (with P.George, LeBron, and now with Jokic) while Jokic twice (previously with Murray in a playoff game).

Denver is just cruising right now. Russ looks like he's doing anything to be a team player.

I look forward to seeing Aaron Gordon return.
