Nuggets Vs Rockets and the drunk 

Post#1 » by The Rebel » Wed Oct 28, 2015 2:14 pm

Game starts tonight at 6 PM, Mudiay is a gametime decision but likely to play, Chandler and Nurkic are both out tonight. Interesting to see what happens tonight in a regular season game.

Dang didn't realize Chandler was out, It would really be nice if we could field a full squad, Nuggets don't have the talent depth to be out key guys for extended periods of time. Excited to see the squad and Malone in action.

It would be nice to see the team fully healthy to start the year, but I'm excited for the first meaningful game with Mudiay running the floor. I'm not expecting a win though. I'm hoping for some cohesiveness and improvement culminating in Nurkic's return next month.

Don't expect a win at all. Honestly, will be interested to see how much fight the team has. Easy in a hostile environment, against a very good team, to let it get completely out of hand.

Ty is going to go after the Nuggets, you know that. Hopefully we're just as aggressive back at him, because he can't guard, well, anybody.

Harris starting, which is cool. Would love to see him seize this opportunity and never look back.

I would like to see Harris guarding Ty, so we don't have matchup problems with Harden and Harris. Maybe put Gallo on Harden for some time? And could Mudiay guard Ariza?
I really hope we can win tonight, it's early in the season and i don't think Harden will be that good, just look what "happened" to Davis, he was 4-20...

This will be a good test of where our defense is against a very good offensive team. Will be interesting to gauge this game to sone in, say...February. Hope Ty just stinks it up enough to bring Beverley off the bench early and often. Perhaps we should wish him well, we could send him down a big bottle of Jack Daniels....hehehehe

Op's title gave me a giggle. Good luck tonight and for the season.

At least this is watchable, I hated watching Shaw's systems, hell my wife quit watching totally last year.

Those 3's we made at the end of the half helped a lot. Without Chandler there isn't a whole lot of reliable scoring out there but i've liked what i've seen thus far.

Not sure why Foye is getting minutes, Harris needs to be getting those minutes

I am still trying to figure out how Mudiay fell to 7th? although I must say that Hezonja and Okafor are having good games as well/

Joffrey's all around play and Harris's D stand out most to me. Not sure if we'll have enough firepower to finish this one out.

I like Harris's defense, it looks damn good, and that run Mudiay has been on is impressing the hell out of me. I am really liking the way this team is looking tonight.

YOu know I never really liked Brewer when he was in Denver, but he annoys me just as much playing for the Rockets.

I agree...That was a nice lil 3-4 mins he put together. He'll learn how to take care of the ball. Not a bad debut. Covered the spread by 30 :o

Nice stat line for Gallo (23/8/3), especially after the slow start. Also, Mudiay outplay Lawson IMO anyone who questions the trade will see we made the right decision with that trade.
