    A 3rd straight road win a row before heading back home would be nice:grin:

    Hope Parsons can play, leggo Rox

    Probably the toughest place to play in off a back to back right here. Not expecting a win but we shall see.

    As long as we keep it a dogfight I'm happy. On a back-to-back and Harden facing Iggy and Wilson, our bigs going up against Faried & McGee, it's going to be really tough. Let's hope someone will step up because I want us to be able to win at least one against the Nuggets. Reg season says nothing come playoff time but if we face them and we're 0-4, that's not going to be good for the guys mentally and us as fans.

    Important thing is to stay healthy. We can afford to lose this one. Almost everyone had this one crossed out as a loss in their calendar anyway. Again, stay healthy.

    Lin played significant minutes today and isn't good in back to backs. Will be very impressed if he plays well tomorrow. It's a winnable game with their players out and their team shook up a little.

    Will Delfino play?

    As long as the team sticks to their identity (running fastbreaks till the end and our 3's fall at a normal rate) this game will be close with a good chance of a W for us..

    Ofc running in Denver will be the problem they have to overcome especially since they had not much breaks before this one.

    I'm hoping for a good game and even if we loose let's keep it close.

    We all know we are not going to play great on the second game of a b2b, especially after starters played significant minutes in the first one. Let's see if refs would bail us out like they did in the Clippers game.

    Nuggets might be a little pumped since they just lost Gallinari

    I read a paper claiming that this is exactly where home court advantage comes from: road teams play more back-to-backs than home teams and they are tired.

    Faried's energy must be contained. Don't you dare put Mo on him, the D is silent.

    We'll win if DeAleck lets us win.
