    Why you asking the answer probably not but if your shot not going then be selective about your shots and find others things to help the team.

    Why is Chauncey taking a timeout? Not much he can do.

    Denver is playing around too much. They could put this away early if they just gave it to Jokic down on the block on every possession.

    I understand if they are going to tank, but play some good basketball anyway

    The Nuggets? Yeah, they are trying to lose by maintaining a 20 point lead.

    how this is not a 30 pt game is beyond me. if Ant was even remotely normal on his shots, we'd be fully in this game.

    Turns out being competitive is hard when you only have two NBA quality players in your rotation.

    I wonder if part of it is instructing and seeing who actually follows/executes the instructions during the game. It is one thing to follow during practice but another during a game.. He is likely continually seeing which guys fit best in his system as he plans for next year.
