Obviously, hindsight being 20/20 you can't fault them after, but boy the way this group played it sure seems like it would have been worth the gamble to play them against Washington and rest the starters for a few more days at a critical point in the playoff stretch run. This squad tonight would have beaten Washington by a solid 15+. Goes to show that yes a 'direct comparison' might lead a coach to consider minutes for a starter, but as the season progresses and those starters have those minutes/miles on their bodies the bench guys don't at some point the balance of impact towards a win swings to the bench player out of sheer exhaustion and minor nagging injury. Put a bunch of hungry ones on the floor and this is what you get. A gritty, sometimes a bit sloppy, hard fought defensively and on the glass, somebody stepped up, big win.
Air Gordon dominated and Westbrook pushing Ball and hitting open Man 16 times sliced and diced Warrior's Defense.. Bench played Hard SpencerJones and Zeke as well Cancar Helps a lot
AG is selfless and humble, but has always been a good team-player. Versatile. Rugged and effective defender. Teamed with Westbrook, MPJ, & PW…no wonder they did not miss Jokic, Murray, &Braun…!
Look Nikola is the center of this team and a lot revolves around him, but this doesn't mean others are not players, and I mean Players! Congrats to Russ MVP and Gordon for showing us how it is done. Even Cancar showed up and scored few times.

Odmori Nikolice, opusti se. Napravio si predivnu atmosferu u timu. Poginuće zbog tebe, jer i ti gineš zbog njih.
Wow that did not go the way the world expected. Congrats Denver that was a great win great game to watch. I generally enjoyed watching that game.

Well said!
Don’t forget Westbrook

Still doesn't make up for the previous loss to the lowly Wizards on home floor.
What up, Nugget ?

Nuggets, unselfish, humble, determined, capable — let’s see who are the wannabes that can topple them come May & June….
Russ is better than curry. Curry can't carry team
