    Now we know the secret. The lack of oxygen at altitude makes all of Denver's opponents play like morons.

    Were playing like the inexperienced team. Sloppy ass half. Basic offensive structure. Where's the 2-guard front? Why arent we sprinting up to set screens?

    Only a three point game but they need to play much smarter. Stop biting on pump fakes. Stop reaching on post defense and for the love of god stop turning the ball over.

    This is still very winnable if we ever stop making stupid plays.

    13 FTA for Denvers 3 for us and we are by far the more aggressive team in attacking the paint.

    No whistles at our end at all. How the hell do we get this advantage at our place?

    The Nuggets bite on pump fakes and then the refs don't call it.

    I still think Layman needs playing time, if Denver starts trapping high his cuts could be key to get some easy points.

    Please don't ever play Turner, he KILLS our offense.

    Instead of practicing shooting at half time, we need to practice passing
