    Billups pretty upset in his post-game press conference.

    Not happy with Grant's defense on Murray at the end, giving up a 3 or the execution on the SLOB play at the end.

    Yep. A 3 should not have been allowed. A quick layup is preferable. Then Dame has time to win it or we go OT and Dame scores 50 in win.

    There were also two Denver threes that were actually twos. That shit cost us too.

    Hope. Either trade ant to have someone go with dame or trade dame for a farm.. there’s nothing left to do anymore then running the same mediocre product

    I didn't take it that way. He was asked about the execution on the last two plays and said neither were the gameplan.

    I can't imagine they were ok giving up a 3 to Murray or wanted to go to Nurk with 0.9.

    You don't sound like a very hopeful person.

    All 3's are reviewable during timeouts or immediately under 2 minutes w/out a challenge. Which 3's are you talking about?

    What’s most upsetting is we had three days off at home and this was the crap performance we got.

    According to Dame, the last play was intended to have 3 options, Dame off a screen, Ant flaring to the corner, or a lob to Grant.

    The fact that Jamal Murray hit the game winner makes this loss even more annoying. I can’t stand that guy.
