The Will Barton led Nuggets

Team Leaders

PPG - Hayward(18.4) - Gallinari (17.5)
RPG - Gobert(10.9) - Faried (9.0)
APG - Hayward(3.1) - Mudiay (5.7)
BPG - Gobert (2.64) - Faried (1.14)
SPG - Favors (1.61) - Barton (1.24)


The Nuggets have won 6 of 7 and the Jazz are on a 4 game losing streak. Still Utah's favored by 5, and rightfully so.

This will be a victory, they can't possibly lose with Yovanna as the gamethread girl.

Barton is a cool player.

 

[Siro]

I'm so unexcited. When will Gobert get back?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

At least we got a proper game thread for this one, so I'm feeling a win.

It is! Even Favors looks a lot different.

That a picture of Alec in the op?

Yeah that pic is from 2008. Alec's the first notable alumni from Mokan elite IIRC. Willie Cauley-Stein was their first player drafted since.

They've got 2 can't-miss NBA players on the way in a few years, Michael Porter Jr. and Trae Young.

A win puts us back in the 8th seed.

Yovanna!?!?!?!

All signs point to a Jazz loss.

All signs point to a Jazz loss.

Did you see the last gamethread I made? They were up 49-18 halfway thru the 2nd quarter.. Have some faith!



The next 3 opponents are the Suns, @Warriors and Clippers - this is basically a must win, they've gotta break the losing streak tonight.

Kinda anxious to see this one TBH. This team is gonna perform well, the pressure is on, they'll respond with a clean game and great effort.


Gallinari will get his, that's not my concern. Controlling Faried on the boards and not letting Barton get early easy looks to boost his confidence, or points in bunches will really help.


We may see a good bit of Randy Foye tonight, rumor is they're shopping him and J.J. Hickson
