I just hope we don’t get sick. Winning this game is big too. The entire Western Conference is still just surviving. We have to survive too until we get our team going.

For real. Two wins in two nights against Denver, a team almost sure to contend for home court in round 1, would be a nice shot in the arm for this team, regardless of whether or not they are at full strength. 1/2 is the absolute minimum they can walk away with.

Don’t listen to KL about this 1/2 minimum business. This game, just like all others, is a must win game.

This game is a Huge must win game.

First game I get to watch live this season.

Lets hopefully see an energized Luka and a THJ that wants to boost his trade value.

2 good aggressive drives by Bullock and DFS. Good to see so far.

After a good first 3 possessions, the offense looks horrible.

Yeah I think it needs a change.  Powell and bullock are no threats off the dribble.  DFS is better but still Below average.  If Din is going to start he needs to do what Jalen did and take advantage of all the attention on Luka and get easy baskets.  Plus the pace is glacier
Slow with starters.

If only we had a dynamic big off the bench who can score on his own (who just had 2 dunks and a 3 in 2 mins).

The Luka/Wood two man game is simply too lethal to be limited to this extent. Playing them together much more should be the most obvious step in the world.

I love when it is the focus when he is in the game.  Offense should be built around that.

Not starting Wood from here on out is now considered a fireable offense.

Luka/Green/DFS/Bullock/Wood should be the starting 5.

No sense of urgency. Looks like they are playing a pick-up game.

Whole year its felt like that for me.

Wood is eating the Nuggets alive. 

The Luka-Wood connection is lethal

Im just tired of gifting the other team an 8-10 point lead before we bring in Wood. What happened to the 10 game sample size and then make changes??

They changed things up. McGee is out of the rotation. Now they need to make the next decision. Continue with Powell as the token starter. Or insert Wood into the starting five (most likely with Kleber, because as @"DanSchwartzgan" likes to tell us. Single big Wood minutes have been bad).

THJ just loves to dribble.

Well the coaching staff only needed 1 game to see McGee wasn’t the answer so the 10 game sample doesn’t count. Now they should be well aware that wood needs to start and get 30+ minutes.
