    Denver Nuggets are the biggest idiots since the Harden trade. Traded away a future all-star and 1st round pick for a complete scrub.

    Gordon, Lou, and Beverley are getting wrecked by Portland's guards. That's the difference in the game.

    Beverlys has been fraud lately. Just been out of control offensively and brash defensively.

    We should just shut down everyone. There's no point to this season anymore. Harden's not going to win MVP. Just prepare for the Playoffs.

    Despite what the rebounds are telling us , our bigs are playing well ..

    But against Portland we're going to have to keep 2 of them on the floor as much as we can.

    That means starting Dekker the second half IMO .

    Those boards from harkless are the result of Gordon not being able to box his ass out .

    I've always thought Nurkic was good, and it sucks we didn't go for him. So much better than Capela.

    Defense is terrible

    But we're playing a lot of 3 guard lineups

    Our defense is decreasing more than our offense is increasing with Lou

    This is gonna be one of those games where we get within 5 but never get the lead & lose by 11.

    are you suggesting that Nurkic would make Capela obsolete?

    Looks a lot better due to our defense....out hustling our guys to 50/50 balls. Unfortunately, I've been stuck having to watch this crap on TNT which makes it even worse.

    It is just one of those situations like Gordon where a player moves teams and thrives big time with them. Can go in reverse too like Lance Stephenson.
