Jokic is absolutely incredible, man.  Credit where it's due.  I should be enjoying this game.  Instead the three extra shirts running up and down the court feel like the story of the half and I'm sick of it.

Refs and missed foul shots....the difference.

Jokic is great. The refs are ruining what should be an excellent game!

We're just a soft team right now. Clearly intimidated by the Nuggets, playing timid and tight, and making awful decisions on both sides of the ball. Tatum absolutely choking out there with only 6 fgas and 3 TOs.

Good to get a bit of a wake up call like this..

Officiating has been truly awful though.

Just an okay first half, and they let go of the reigns a bit in the last minute or so of the half, letting a 3-point deficit quickly go to 8. And the Nugs hit a last-second shot at the end of both quarters, which didn’t help.

Denver has totally outclassed us in the first half. The Cs are gonna be tested i. The 2nd half for sure. Will they fight or mail it in?

is it just me or does Tatum seemed to be bothered by Denver's size?

JB keeping us in the game....eye of the tiger tonight from him.
Jason Tatum...eye of the housecat.

Mamba mentality? More like a cat who fears the snake.

I stayed up late just to watch the refs. I'm getting my money's worth!

Those three Ts were so weak. This could have been a five point game.

I don't think JB has played soft, he has missed some fts and the dumb dunk miss, but he isn't playing soft.  JT?  That remains to be seen.   JT hasn't exerted himself on this game yet.  He needs to.
