We should win it routinely even without Murray and with Malone not ejected!

Every time MPJ jumps and bends his legs, he misses, I guess thats 40% of 3s he misses xD

A 10 point lead after 1 is always a nice way to start the game.

Big 1st quarter once again gives Nuggets double-digit lead on halftime. 10-18 vs 3-13 for 3pt makes difference.

Jokic 2021 triple-double watch:
Shy for just oine assist or rebound
OR

Spurs never lead tonight and 0-0 was the only tied result, but San Antonio was so close to put this game into overtime

MVP Jokic with bold triple-double, MPJ with newest 20+10+ double-double, and factor-X this time was Morris with 5-5 threes (his +/- was +14 while Campazzo -11).

In the middle of the 2nd Nuggets lead +18 but in the middle of the 3rd it was just +1, so we have drama, luckily with happy end.

Monte Morris was big again tonight off the bench.

Too close for my comfort, but SAS is not a slouch team, just glad we pulled it out. Definitely missed Murray, getting some rest for the stretch run. Kudos to Facu, seemed to have a good game 9/4 one of his better games. Not sure why he started over Morris other than stabilizing the bench. GREAT to see McGee get some mins.

If you watch +/- Jokic & Porter were the only Nuggets starters with "+" --- and Barton & Campazzo had the worst "-" which all means it was very nice to have Morris play so big off the bench. I will say again, I really hate seeing Barton & Campazzo as our starting guards.

Funniest Scene: Barton giving Gordon advice on playing defense. Will he soon be giving Jokic advice on passing?

Sadist Scene: Jokic getting frustrated with a missed call and going after the ref while the Spurs get a nice easy bucket at the other end. Of course he got a technical too.

I typically watch the other team's TV feed, since Altitude isn't interested in allowing me to watch the Nuggets. I've heard several announcers for other teams make statements like: "No matter how big the lead, if you keep trying the Nuggets will let you have a chance to win." We certainly proved that again.
