We got game after game coming up all top tier games... we need to win every single one of these.
Sucks so much we had to lose the Utah and Charlotte games. Would have given us a buffer into this month of March.

F yeah!

Kicked some Nugget @$$

Great statement game.

I don’t think Denver is going to want any piece of us in the playoffs

I doubt anyone would

Great win....nice to kick their ass. Not sure I'd call it a statement game though. We beat them....and as nice as it is, they have had our number, and we got one good one on them. We play them 2 more times next month....let's actually make a statement then. If we beat them those games....I think a serious monkey gets knocked off our back.

Great win though. If we can prove it was more than a 'fluke' next month, you gotta start thinking late may with this new team. Was nice to see Luka and Lebron living up to hype. Let's see if we can make this game a habit.

I don't wanna get out over my ski's.........but this was legit. More of this. Maybe I'll believe.

Nice win. They took Jokic out of the game with their defense.

What made me feel good about this win is the fact that Luka’s presence with our other 4 changes the flow of the ball movement to a positive. More balanced; not elite but that potential is there.

The other thing that stands out is Luka’s 30+ point game felt like a better 30+ than when AD did it.
More players involved.

JJ will enjoy the results of our team.

Last view is paint control defensively.
We need more O & D rebounding!

^ no.

For us it was the BE-ALL END-ALL game of the century.

To the mcnuggetz, it was just another Tuesday.


Any given team can beat any team on any given regular season game. Let's see how we fare in our next couple of run-ins with them soon.
