    I’d rather have Nards than Tolliver.

    Very balance scoring close the QT out good. Whiteside already double double in the game.

    And I can hardly remember us getting more than two steals in a half.

    In terms of fan antipathy, maybe. In terms of usefulness he's no match for ET, let alone Aminu.

    Tolliver playing way too fucking much. He literally brings nothing to the table that I can see.

    Once Nurk and Pau get back, Tolliver will be a guy we love to see. Because it means we are up 20+.

    There 3 are wide open and that hasn't changed from preseason on the defense side.

    1st Half thoughts:

    • Baze is a straight up thief
    • Denver has no interest in driving when Whiteside is in the game
    • Blazer bench looks very robotic in the half-court
    • Collins called for 3 fouls and may not have actually committed a single one
    • Dame will get more aggressive in the 2nd half
    • ....still don't get why they signed Tolliver
