  1. Unfair-Nectarine-757

    Mike shooting well = blowout wins

  2. thewavefixation

    Jackson really finding his place

  3. MarsBars_1

    Imagine leading at half to only lose by 20+

    Couldn’t be us

  5. NikolaiBullcry

    Back to back Sombor doubles, baby.

  6. Draelon24

    Collin Gillespie has insane screen navigation skill. It’s in front of his man 24/7

  7. JokicOrBust

    Great win on a back 2 back. I hope Murray is okay. Good to see Gillespie healthy and back. KCP is the frotnrunner for DPOY. LaVine and DeRozan another victims of KCP defensive masterclass. Looking forward to the Pelicans game on Tuesday

  8. n0t_malstroem

    the denver nuggets are currently undefeated in the collin gillespie era

  10. Dydono_

    BHB is back!!

    Also is that back to back MPJ post game court interviews??

  14. markpondrice

    Awkward first half. Dominant second half. B2B ending in Denver has to be ROUGH.

  16. MasterStrange616

    Great W on the second night of a back to back! MPJ stepped up big in this one and has looked more comfortable getting his shot back and his defense and rebounding continues to improve. KCP is still just the perfect guard defender to put next to Jok with how well he navigates screens and allows the rest of the defense to stay with their assignments without over-helping.

    Big shout out to Dizzy Gillespie for filling in well with the starters and just kind of going with the flow without disrupting anything. Reggie also looked a lot more comfortable in the second half (a lot of those minutes with the starters as well), and when his shot is falling he is a great bail out option for the bench. CB continues to impress, and though he still has improvements to make with his overall offensive game, his intensity and effort constantly helps him to succeed even if shots aren’t falling.

    Great win, and let’s keep this rolling! Go Nuggets!

  17. ImGonnaChubbBradley

    Couldn’t even hold them to a munder, pathetic!

  18. mares8

    Hopefully Murray is okay… Aside that good game Jokic again edging us with TD, MPJ was a beast , Reggie has been amazing showed up as sole PG , 16 points on 60 % shooting .

    MPJ with bench looked much better than 2 PG lineups. I don’t get why Malone didn’t play Zeke who was amazing for us so far and put so much effort he plays DJ and puts Zeke in garbage time???

    Gilespipo looked really nice in this limited minutes pleasantly surprised

  19. Lonely_Anteater447

    Nuggets win, Lakers lose, great night

  21. iro3

    does it look like braun fell off a tad based on how solid he was last year ?

  24. xXStretch79Xx

    The Nuggets formed up like Voltron tonight! Each special on their own, but then they form into one overpowering unit and it’s over

  28. Azshadow6

    Really strange how both MPJ and Jokic ended up 9-16 shooting.

    For Porter looks like a really good shooting night. Yet for Jokic looks like he had an off night

  29. ImGonnaChubbBradley

    Avs getting absolutely dicked down so definitely needed this Nuggets win

  30. snakejakemonkey

    That hamstring better be a precaution

    Pretty brutal if they played him 38 front end of a b2b then he gets hurt today.

  31. IronFleshAutomaton

    when MPJ plays to his potential the team is just unfair.

    The amount of fouls this game was silly tho and a butt ugly first half

  33. petarisawesomeo

    Damn how bad are the Bulls when even Tony Brothers can’t keep them in it

  34. overjoyedsnorlax

    My boy MPJ on fire. Jokic the honey glazed glove with 3 steals. Collin look decent, knocked down a couple of shots, nice pass to CB

  36. Fit-Avocado-342

    MPJ playing well makes the nuggets unbeatable

  37. boydivision30

    Best thing about this start is that Coach is managing the starters minutes while racking up wins.

  38. bbqyak

    Finally MPJ finding his groove. If he gets to all-star level the Nugs are unbeatable.

  39. twelly74

    If this is who MPJ has evolved to the Nuggets are literally unstoppable

  40. PackageNo7044

    At work, why did Jamal only play 9 minutes? All good?

  41. ApplesAndToothpicks

    Collin Gillespie game, super super solid in his backup pg minutes.

    Booth cannot make a bad move, I swear.

  44. boydivision30

    He was averaging 34 mpg this season. Injuries just happen.

  48. AltruisticEnd9

    I know this is a hot take, but Jokic guy seems pretty good.

  49. EdwardJamesAlmost

    Barely not a munder, look at those opposing shooting percentages.

  50. finn_odalih

    I loved those Jok + Baby Nuggs minutes!
