Maybe it's just me, but I would venture to say the feeling is mutual.

Me too. It's a shame what the Vikings had to do to him

Pull the starters. This one is over.

Minot time!!

He might, or he Minott.

Thank you Denver. Mike Malone's gift for not voting Ant into the All Star game I guess.

Wasn't the best game to attend. But fun to see an easy win with no stress

Glad you saw a win, but feel for you and everyone who paid NBA prices to see less than an NBA game.

I think we all had the same belief going into this game- if we can only find some way to stop Vlatko Cancar, we have a chance to win this game. And we did, holding him to 6 points.

All sarcasm aside, there's no need for me to watch the replay of this game...I'll wait for the real Nuggets game tomorrow night. Just a box score review from me:

-Terrific to see Ant and DLo with only 4 turnovers after 10 the previous game. and we forced 23 turnovers by the Nuggets JV team. Taking care of the ball is important.

-The ball movement must have been stellar...33 assists (10 by Russell and 6 by Jaden) must be a season high!

-JMac is miles ahead of everyone on the team this season in on/off, so it was not surprising (but still nice) to see him doing what he does game in and game out...an impressive +16 in only 12 minutes.

-Nowell has been everyone's biggest disappointment this season, but in the two games I went to last week and also some TV games, I've seen some positive signs on defense. But he needs to start shooting well too. It looks like he brought his A game last night with an efficient 16/4/4 with no turnovers and an absurd +35 in 27 minutes. I don't think anyone is close to ready to drink any Jaylen Kool Aid yet, but very nice to see his box score last night.

-Ant's 3-point shot has disappeared this month (he's now 4 for 23 or 17%), but at least it looks like he is aware of it. Only 5 attempts (and 1 make) last night after 18 the two previous games).

Malone handed us a win, and we took advantage of it. We're back to just one game out of 4th place and only KAT is out injured now. Let's go out and win the real Nuggets game tomorrow night.

Late Night DVR Review:

- Way to not dink around. Russell came out hot... the Nuggets gave the ball all up far too often... and the Wolves took advantage as they should.

- A win.

- Didn't watch the 2nd half. I had other things to do (sometimes other priorities take precedence when games are already decided)
