It was as strange play all the way around. I don't think the first option was Wig catching the ball with his back to the basket.

Jokic and KAT will be a good rivalry for a long time. Joker's shot in OT was insane.

The one game we finally defend well, we go 1 for 1 million from outside. Unreal.

Still, Denver is a legit contender and we played them tough. One of these days the shooting curse will be lifted from this team.

It's less of a curse when management ignores acquiring shooters. There have been plenty of opportunities to add shooters.

I couldn't see it in the replay Leigh Ellis tweeted for the turn around jumper from Jokic. Did he dribble when his back was turned or just take 5 steps before hitting that shot over Towns and the refs missed it?

Don't necessarily disagree, but over the years even when we get guys that can supposedly shoot or at least are acceptable shooters, they end up under-performing versus their career numbers. Teague, Napier and Graham are the latest examples.

I'm convinced it's partially a curse and partially bad management/development.

So did ryan address that last play in the post game interviews?

We shoot 20% from 3 and we win.

More like 15%. Or if the Nuggets miss the half court heave before halftime.

One word says it all "Brick"
