I have no idea what team we'll see tonight. Will Kat be in foul trouble early? Will we make shots? Dlo?

Nobody knows Denver better than Finch and Micah Nori. Nori said pre-game he's going to tell Joker that he hopes Kat kicks his ass. :) He laughed. He said Joker is as good as it gets.

Sounds like Jokic is insane right now. They say his reads are instant, he is killing teams who double him. Just a nightmare and playing above MVP level he did last season. That said, Nuggets are rocked with injuries so even though Jokic is God-Tier right now they are still beatable. If we don't come correct though, we will get destroyed.

Damn, that nba writer guy was right. This starting line up is the greatest line up ever! The way they are outscoring their opponents is great. Hoping for good health for this line up.

I honestly think it's because Beverly and Vando keeps the rest of the guys in check with their hustle. Like, if they don't work hard they'll look lazy or something along that line :lol:

Someone forgot to tell KAT. Missed a straight away three and still couldn’t get back on D.

We're seing what Towns can be tonight. Inside-outside, passing, shooting, he's schooling Joker.

Now they'll probably double Kat.

Why does Ant have to take so many shots!? :) :)

Can't ask for a much better start.

We're even hitting open shots!

He looks so lazy on defense. On screens, he's hedging REALLY hard and letting guys roll free to the rim. I'm not sure if they're purposely playing it that way, but sooner or later Denver is going to eat that up, much like most teams.

Nowell has to step up now that he's getting an opportunity.

I know Beasley has a grudge against Denver for trading him, but he is seriously playing like an idiot right now.
