It sucks that the Ayton's contract extension wasn't worked out, but let's not make every single post about it maybe? It's not like anybody on this board had a hand in the decision not to extend him. Let's enjoy the game we are watching...

Shamet looking like a great fit right out the gates.

Ball handling, driving, creating his own shot, quick decisive actions….isn’t that what everyone said Ayton couldn’t do? Too bad he’s not worth a max…
Are you going to do this all season? I don't mute anyone here, but if this is all you're planning to bring to the discussion then I think you're going to start to piss off some people.

You got to be freaking kidding me! Double OT in the first game causing me to miss the entire 1st quarter!!!

Yeah… but he failed terribly that 3pt shot, he is a 0% 3pt shooter for the year.. that’s not going to cut it… Definitely not worth the max…

Looking good! Love the depth on this roster.

Choppy 1st qtr, maybe some nerves but settled down a bit in the 2nd and really started clicking to take control of the game. Book looks a little out of shape which is to be expected but is still looking like himself and doing a great job setting up others with 3 assists. Payne looks a lot quicker to me but is having trouble finding his offense. 0-5 from the field but a +11 overall. Shamet looks like flamethrower out there. A lot like Cam Johnson with his catch and shoot ability. DA looks like himself, nice 3 from the top of the key. Got a nice feed from Book and went right to the rim to get the foul and go to the line. He's got 13-4-2 so far.

Feels a lot like the playoff games, Jokic is getting his while the rest of the roster can't really keep up.

Aaron Gordon is not a tough guy no matter how hard he tries.

I finally got to start watching at the end of the 1st quarter and we were down 9 or 11. But from that point Shamet was on fire and we soon took the lead. Too bad the 1st half ended on a Nuggets run and Jokic 3. The Barton 3 off the glass from the corner was total BS.

Dirty shove from Campazzo to Cam Payne. No call per usual. Then a late whistle in favor future HOF player Jeff Green. Refs in mid season form :roll:

I'm all for Mikal doing more with the ball, but I don't think he should be leading the team in shot attempts.

Gotta pull Jae in favor or Shamet here. Can’t have 3 guys battling shooting woes in at the end of the game
