Let's Mug the Nugz- Denver/Wolves GDT

Good defense by Ant tonight.

That's a grown up win right there. Time to grab the season by the balls

Incredible Jaden game

MVP, although I loved Donte's game today too. Jaden was very good guarding Jamal, and made all 9 of his 2-point shots.

This is why I continue to say I’m not worried about the regular season. They continue to try their asses off in games that matter

Boxscore review captures that win pretty well.

- Edwards hit some timely buckets... and got off the ball good enough when forced into it. Only 2 free throws which came very very late. I don't think it was indicative of his game though.

- Gobert rebounding and defense. And he moved the ball well when given opportunities in the middle of the court from Edwards.

- McDaniels with an efficient game and mostly out of foul trouble.

- Divincenzo hitting shots, hustling, doing the little things. 5 assists and 0 TOs. Very good game for him.

- Randle still doesn't look like he's playing well... but 9 rebounds and 7 assists shows his value.

- Dosunmu seemed to be more of a seamless fit in this one.

- Reid was quiet... until he wasn't. Those 8 straight points in the 4th were huge.

- Hyland was the one anomaly... going for 15 early to get the Wolves going. He and Ayo are adding needed pace to the game.

- Wolves destroyed the Nuggets on the break (30 - 6?)... that was the difference. And I give Ayo and Bones (and DDV) a lot of credit for that.

Good defense by Ant tonight.

I had no problem at all with his defense today. I'll give Finchy some credit here though...he made sure Ant was always guarding the worst offensive player on the court. And there are a lot of "worst" candidates on the Nuggets with Gordon and Watson out.

We continually prove we have it in us. Let's go on a run like we did at the end of last year and get home court for at least one round.

All NBA players are more than capable of scoring (well except Rob) Denver beat Philly earlier in the year with Joker, Murray, Gordon, Braun, Valanciunas, and Cam Johsnon all out. I thought Ant was great on defense. and actually shared the ball in the clutch which are all good points.

Looking at the schedule and there isn't a game they should lose between here and OKC- not saying they won't lose any, just that they are all winnable game.

Really want to see them go on a professional stretch and grab hold of the 3rd seed

I was thinking Bones might be in jeopardy of being out of the rotation when Ayo joined the team, but now I realize that he is still the better shot creator. Ayo is pretty much just straight line drives and catch and shoot 3s in the halfcourt whereas Bones can manufacture something out of nothing, which is an important skill. I also liked the "try" factor from Bones on defense even though he still got burned a couple of times.
