I heard a smattering of boos in the arena when we couldn’t grab a defensive rebound to save our lives. Expected OKC would win this, but maybe Malone adjusts rotation in second half and we pull it out. On second thought, Malone is always slow to adjust. 10yrs of 2pg line up - never change malone At least they're not both under 5'10" like the Facu and Howard days.

It's the first game but the lack of energy is a little annoying. Zero effort or concern about rebounding. Think it was SGA who snagged an offensive rebound with Jokic close by. We knew the shooting would be bad but atleast crash the boards. 1st half rebounds Nugs: 28 Thunder: 20 When your facing the Thunder with this lineup I don't think the Nuggets should be down 1 in offensive rebounds. Should be where we can really abuse them.

Which is going to happen cause Jok is going to coast at times.

To be fair it felt like a good chunk of those came with Watson/Saric on the floor. Watson isn't strong enough to win contested rebounds and Saric looked like he was going to pass out during the game.

I was never biased fan of any team that i root for in any sports, but i stand by that Denver Nuggets are the worst officiated team in the NBA. I legit feel that refs hates us..

Christian Braun is very good at basketball. If he can ever improve his shooting he's going be insane. He shot it well on low volume last year but he's gunna see a ton of open looks that he'll be forced to take thos year.

Braun won't shoot as well but he does a ton of things better. Nuggets just have to figure out a bench lineup. Russ-Strawther-Watson-MPJ-Saric seems so easy. No idea how Malone didn't go to that to start the season.

We know the shooting is gunna be tough this year. I think the rebounding should be dominant. Jokic with an offensive board as I'm typing this. Should be a dominant win for the Nuggets by the end of the game.

Murray is his usual early season self. So reassuring to the opponent.

A very inconsistent player without elite athleticism. He can raise his game to the highest level but his lows are very low compared to other top players. I'll never understand why people weren't livid that the best guy we can have paired with Jokic is someone like that.

Because he rises when it counts and he’s healthy, which is never early in the season.

Not sure what this team does well right now. Bad at both ends. Poor energy and hustle. A 9 pt lead feels like 20

There are no more excuses and turning the cheek to him playing poorly every other game.
