Fortunate to win. Kind of feels like a loss. Team did not play well at all in 2nd half.

Good Job C's to hang in there!

i didn't have a stream, why didn't Denver foul us with 17 seconds left, it looks like they didn't foul and let Kyrie take a shot.

Sometimes i truly wonder how the C's are ranked as high defensively as they are. They look like amateurs a lot of the time.

I wonder that too. If the Cs are the best defensive team, that's not saying much for the rest of the league.

And why the heck did Kyrie shoot the ball with 7 seconds left? Why not milk the clock and make Denver foul?

I think there was like an extra 4 seconds for Denver to shoot. Nice D by Jaylen on that last shot.

Nice to see the aggressiveness from Tatum, except for that one possession near the end.

I have no idea.  Was the shot clock off?

He got a good look by creating separation.  I have no problem with his shot plus if he held the ball just to milk the clocks it might have occurred to the Nuggets to call a TO to advance the ball and maybe they get a better shot.

Seems like Rozier was everywhere in the box score.
