  1. What a win! The whole nuggets squad woke up after coasting the last few months of the season, way to bury the wolves and not let them get an inch of hope. TNT showed a shot of the wolves bench and you can tell they realized how good this denver team is

  2. Minnesota played the fifth strong intense game in 8 days. Very tired, exhausted. Plus they are without several players. Gobert and Towns are a terrific fit. This series is Potemkin Village. An illusion. Malone will ruin everything with Jeff and Jordan. He had the whole season to play the young Zeke, Peyton and Vlatko, and in the end he went back to the washed-up veterans. Denver has almost no chance against the Lakers, Phoenix, especially Boston and Philadelphia with Jeff and Jordan. Malone is a bizarre coach, brings back Jokic on +30 🙄

  3. I think it was severely understated how important that first 3 from AG was to put us up 6-0, and he had another in the 2nd half when they didn't want to rotate off KCP and MPJ. I know they caught back up after that 1st one, but it meant they couldn't just leave him to double Jokic even if they gave him more room than MPJ. AG made them question their strategy even if momentarily, and it made them think the rest of the game instead of playing by instinct.

    I said DJ would play a role this series, and they got a bigger lead without Jokic out there because Murray was hunting some lobs to DJ which made Gobert think more. Also good to see Green so active, the 2 vets who played meaningful minutes both look like they're as willing as anyone to do whatever to get a ring.

    Good lord, Braun might be a cult hero here on defense by the end of this run. I hope he tortures Anderson more this series, but that kidney punch to Christians side was pretty childish.

  4. Great win, despite the Joker not getting a triple-double. Keep focused Nugs and don't let those hateful ESPN Lakers/Warriors cheerleaders distract you

  5. Great defense for Denver. To have a 29 point difference when jokic scores so little is very scary. MPJ now is a decent defender and i ❤ that. Really excited for the next game

  6. Ya great statement win for the Nuggets! Defense was active and aggressive . They played physical all game. And the point differential without Joker needed alot of points was stunning! Great start !!!
