Warren actually making some nice passes early on. Drove and dished to Jackson in the corner, jackson missed, and just found bridges in the corner for a 3.

This active hands thing we've got going on now is great. We generally look like ass, but at least we force some turnovers now. Huzzah!
Jones out, Lue in, draft Tyler Kolek.

I love the length and speed of Jackson, Oubre and Bridges. They fly around the court, are rangy and really disrupt things. Bridges is driving a bit early in the game which I like to see. I think he can do more offensively but has been getting lost a bit. Can't get over his wingspan. I'm curious to see him play some 4 down the line when he adds some weight/fills out.
It's also a luxury to bring Oubre in off the bench. We have a lot of SFs but they're young and exciting to watch.

Ya it’s been nice. We are starting to find an identity on defense. We may not exactly be a good offensive or defensive team, but we at least do something well defensively.
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
That was a pretty bad foul call on Bridges...
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
One of the best 1st quarters I’ve seen us play in some time.
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
Really solid quarter for the suns 31-23
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
Nice start so far. I wish Josh Jackson would look to pass a bit more rather than this current 2-7 shooting, but otherwise happy to see them doing well. They are showing good energy and competitiveness. I liked how the guys came over and congratulated Holmes after he got an and-one. I just want to see them play hard as a team and encourage each other like that.

Question: It is often stated that this team needs a PG and a PF. I think it's quite obviously true that we need a PG. Do we need a PF? If we had a good PG, could we just run Booker at SG and then a platoon of our many SFs at the 3-4 spots and make do? We have so much talent at the 3 that I wonder whether we could just do that rather than look for a more "traditional" PF.

Ayton just hauled ass down the court, took a nice pass from Okobo on the fast break, spun around his defender and slammed it down with 1 hand.
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
Oh my god, is there anything greater than an Oubre follow slam?
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
After that Jackson play, I'd say things are going our way this half.
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
Suns looking really nice right now. Up 15
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
Well we’re surviving right now without a true 4...some teams could take advantage. If Ayton becomes a better defender and can lock down the paint it might be doable.Marty [Mori Chu] wrote: ↑Sat Jan 12, 2019 7:45 pmQuestion: It is often stated that this team needs a PG and a PF.

Jokic’s passing is otherworldly
Re: Game Day: Nuggets (28-12) @ Suns (10-33), Sat 1/12/19
Really like our defense tonight....as we just give up a cheap and 1 to millsap then don’t secure the board on the ft miss
