Denver has a better record so far this season vs best teams than vs worst teams, and Clippers are arguably among best teams, so Nuggets are going to win today. The only scare is the fact Paul George will not play today, so we may still underestimate them too :lol:

One of the best, if not the best offensively first half this season, considering opponent was an elite defensive team. Favorite part is 7-14 for 3p, and MPJ 4-5 scoring all 9 pts in opening 3 minutes of 2nd quarter.

Yes, they won. But, I'd love an explanation why Gary Harris got benched in the 4th for Will Barton.

Edit: Coach just said Gary couldn't finish the game because of injury.

A victory we really needed just to keep pace with red-hot UTH. Such inconsistency in this team really begs us to shake it up. Really think it's time to put MPJ into the starting lineup and possibly look at an upgrade in the back court.

We were missing Millsap.
They were missing George.
Nice to beat a good team, but truthfully, it wasn't an impressive win. Once again, we played just good enough to win. We won two quarters, but one was barely a win. This win was because of the 2nd quarter and we coasted to the finish.

If anyone has a post game update on the injuries to Harris (and maybe Murray), please post.
Canned in Denver.
