    Kanter is a mess defensively.

    Looking sharp out there, maybe it will carry over to the playoffs

    1. I think Kanter has defended Jokic better than Nurk.

    Not as good 1st quarter still holding them down on defense.

    It means that Dallas and Portland win.

    And Denver and Clippers lose.

    Ideally we want a Clippers win, Dallas loss and a Lakers loss. That would give us a 3-6 Clips/Mavs matchup and a 4-5 Blazers/Nuggets matchup. It would also allow the Blazers to avoid the Lakers until the WCF should they get that far.

    No, I complained about how your last haircut made your ears look really big. The tweets are fine.

    @KSF-ERIC my apologies. You called the Dallas Minny thing.

    Very confused about why they're doing this

    I actually think Gordon is bad fit on the Nuggets with a similar player (defensive minded PF) already on the roster in Millsap and even Jamychal Green. I think they weakened their team by trading away Gary Harris who fit this team like a glove as a 3&D wing. Time will tell.

    Kent just said win and they’re IN. Hopefully we win because if we don’t, we are out.

    Are nuggets gonna pull starters at all? We playing great but nurkic sucks shooting FT and he must always dunk because he doesn’t have any finesse around rim

    We are going to lose a playoff game because of Nurk can’t make his FTs
