Up 14 at the half...and gave up a bad 3 shot foul to end the half. See if they can keep their foot on the gas

The difference between Cleveland & Houston? Houston made a defensive effort. Cleveland tried to outscore Denver. They got hot, especially in the 3rd period with Irving on pick-n-rolls.
Congrats to the No-D Enver Nuggets on a great scoring effort. Lots of movement, lots of passes.

I object to this - it's a good way to hurt a player and Malone has done it more than once.

Thought for sure Cleveland got this in the bag considering their regular starting unit is intact.
Big win for the Nugs!

Impressed, 2 strong efforts vs. HOU now a strong win against the defending world champs when it means something.

The game against Houston last Saturday was an armed robbery by officiating crew

Great game. Sadly I'm not free to watch it live.
We play great overall. Effort on defense, we are sharing the ball, everyone have nice stats.
If we play good offense like this, we shouldn't be worried about our players not getting enough minutes when they also get nice stats with those limited minutes.

Something that speaks to how good our offense is are Lebron and Steph Curry's post game interviews after we destroyed them. Both gave the helpless/humbled speech. When we have more than 30+ assists we are extremely hard to beat. To me, this team is a fairly similar 2012-2013 Nuggs team. Our offense is far better than that team (which is saying a lot b/c we were ranked #1 in the NBA) but Iggy made that team better Defensively.
This team is actually ranked better Defensively but the league has switched more to three point shooting which has hurt every teams Defense PPG stats. What I'm basically saying is our offense is going to make it seem worse for our Defense because they are efficient and teams get more possessions against us, not something I'm going to complain about. We're not the Jazz, and I don't want to be.
I like where Malone is taking this team and just hope they can close out these last 10 games.

The Cavs have been struggling a little lately, but even still this is a win that is opening people's eyes despite what I consider better wins earlier in the season. Although the national guys still seem to be having trouble wrapping their heads around how good the Nuggets are with Jokic at Center.
