GTJ!

I'll take the win, but it's sad the we needed Dame to tie the Franchise high on 3point makes to beat a nuggets team without 4 starters and hardly Jokic.

Porter is better than anyone they're missing

 

[julius]

All the sudden now Plums hit's his FT's

 

[HailBlazers]

Dame like FINALLY someone to knock down threes when I kick it

 

[riverman]

Holy shit GT

 

[B-Roy]

New big 3:

Dame/Nurk/GT

 

[beast blazer]

3pt shooting has bern crazy tonight

 

[julius]

Porter is better than anyone they're missing

I like Denver (when they aren't playing Portland), especially Porter. He's fun to watch.

 

[VenomXL]

What a nail biter. Thank god they pulled it out.

 

[riverman]

HELL YEAH!!!!!!!

 

[riverman]

HALF GAME OUT OF 8TH!!!!!

 

[B-Roy]

Nice win but good god we should not have needed 40 minutes from Dame to do this.

 

[B-Roy]

Porter is better than anyone they're missing

Way better. Porter is a straight shot maker.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Unnecessary to be this close but hey

 

[DDolla]

Porter is the new T-Mac

 

[oldmangrouch]

Wow. That ended up being a pleasant surprise!

 

[James lamphear]

I guess our guys has to make everything exciting every game. But I give Denver credit they came to play.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Lucky for us Denver (coach) didn't really care about winning this game. CJ and Melo disappeared. Collins was average, Anf below average, Nurkic active and aware, but needs to make some shots. Lillard and Trent really showed up.

The nuggets shot lights out as well. You don't normally lose going 14-28 from 3

 

[GhostOfPGA]

That collins to Nurk pass was amazing

 

[Mediocre Man]

I’d like to thank Mike Malone for leaving Jokic on the bench for the 4th quarter

 

[GhostOfPGA]

Just keep winning

 

[Scalma]

Whiteside is making that decision this offseason real easy. We can find a cheap third center and have Collins backup Nurk.

and for the love of god stop playing Simons.

 

[Mediocre Man]

That collins to Nurk pass was amazing

You mean that 1 foot shuffle pass?

Nurk was a freakin' beast. The guy is incredible despite missing shots. I've never seen a player with a higher basketball IQ.

 

[beast blazer]

Well, they were playing better with him on the bench, so....

 

[BigGameDamian]

I’d like to thank Mike Malone for leaving Jokic on the bench for the 4th quarter

Wonder why though?
