Without Gary Harris, every opponent which best player are SG is especially dangerous.

But we are in a "must-win" position in all three remaining home court games if we want to see a playoff, so no complains.

Without G.Harris we are left with two veterans that spell defense without a "D" plus a young player that appears to be a good defender, but he doesn't get much of a chance to show it. Leaving only Murray as a reasonable option to defend SG. He did fairly well against Milwaukee but had foul trouble. We'll see about tonight. It'll be something I'm watching close (since he's my favorite Nugget 8-)

Chandler shows sign of life, maybe Murray got in his face again. Perhaps Murray needs a bit of lip too !!

Oladipo's gonna start showing up in my nightmares.

We started 1st half 9-2 (Barton all 9), and 2nd half with 11-0 (3x3pt), and such intense starts of both halves was obviously crucial for our win. Barton/Oladipo should be a horrible matchup for us, but against all odds, Barton won it today!

Very take-charge performance by Jokic tonight, like to see that burn into the playoffs.

But Jokic overall picture can't be bad when he got 38+ minutes.

His today 30-6-7 numbers on 38 minutes would be just about 23-5-5 if he played just 30 minutes like so many times this and last season.

Happy the nuggets won.

Extremely annoyed that I couldn’t get any of the streams to work and altitude tv is stuck in the Stone Age and doesn’t give any options to watch the team if you’re a cord cutter.

Nice game against a team with a better record - and they've been hot lately.
It was mostly a three man game on offense: Jokic, Murray, Barton.
But the rest of the team contributed in some other ways.

Not an impressive win - but very satisfying for sure.
