Didn't get a A game out of Murray or Jokic IMO (Jokic B+/A-) and still won on the road. Have to clean some things up but the Nuggets are getting legitimate contributions from 8 guys right now. That's a recipe for success. Jokic is far away from B+/A- game. I'm more engaged and I'm on my couch. We are winning this cause we are far better team and all of the guys contribute.

Scary part is, we can play much better than this Yep. Really don't think we've played a great game yet. Game 1 the defense was great but the offense wasn't up to par. Will need to play 4 great games to have a chance against Phoenixs firepower.

We are losing this one, guys. We have coughed up so many opportunities. Braun and Brown each with a turnover in the paint to start 4Q, and a Malone rage timeout. I don’t blame him. We are playing like we are drunk. thanks rock jr Btw, where is rock?

favourite part is we're up 3-0 without depending on Jokic to be perfect. That man better eat Ayton alive. Zubac is doing it. Jokic better kill him.

See like...I kind of agree but he dropped 20/11/12 on 9-13 shooting. It's hard to pretend like that's not a really great game

Malone had to be convinced, repeatedly, to play this guy. Reminder that in one offseason Calvin Booth got KCP, Bruce Brown, Christian Braun, DeAndre Jordan, Ish Smith, Peyton Watson, Ismael Kamagate and Collin Gillespie. And yes I am including Ish and DAJ because they've been fantastic from a veteran leadership perspective. Yup. Excellent job by Booth !

The pressure is on. Denver has never swept a series, but I don't think Minny wants to travel back to Denver, so this could be a first

Murray with 18/6/9. Even when he's not having great shooting nights, he's been able to contribute with his passing, rebounding and his defense.
If not for Bruce getting obliterated by Ant and Jokic not trying to protect the rim...thought the defense was very good tbh

Do they let up and take a breath now or do they go for the kill? Anthony Edwards is not a guy whose going to quit on a series. KAT maybe. Gobert maybe. Ant...no way.

Zero complaints. A full team effort. Didn't get an A+ game from Jokic/Murray but both guys were solid. You go into a road playoff game up 2-0 and you expect some pushback. We all know Malone can rally these guys to come back in a series and never give up .. if he can actually pull off the sweep I'll be impressed. Gobert/ANT/Towns showed up tonight but the Nuggets just kept going.
