    We don't need Nurk to outplay Jokic or even come out even - just don't get destroyed by him. We have advantages elsewhere - we just can't let that Serbian freak of nature kill us singlehandedly (which we have seen him do).

    More minutes for Nas and Sharpe. I'm OK with that. Maybe Nas defends Jokic when Nurk is out....?

    think we might see nas/shaedon move up in the rotation and/or jabari getting his first mins.

    This is why I think Winslow never stays on teams long. He’s never healthy. I don’t think ppl question his skills.

    Most of Ant's misses are on-line, but hitting the front of the rim. Consistently. That's a good sign that his shots will start to fall.

    It’s true. He’s a great player but he’s never healthy

    Justise may be just having back to back load management...hopefully it's a minor sprain...we have Walker and Eubanks, Nas and Sharpe to pick up the slack. Sucks, I was hoping Nurk and Justice could wear down Jokic.

    Just got to my seats in 221 with an IPA in hand. Hope I don’t get dragged out by security.

    Sharpe and Hart are the only ones shooting around. Apparently the only ones that care.

    A typically bad Kangs team - still, a win on the road is a good win.
    WCF Suns - a good win
    A BADDDD Lakers dumpster fire - but again, a win on the road is a good win.

    If they get the Nuggets, that might change some opinions of where this team could go.

    Yeah just want him to play a good game. I have been very happy with the way he has been playing the last couple games. Believe me I've been down on the guy.
