Quotes from the Nuggets forums - "Jazz on 27 to 3 run."

What? Just because we beat them doesnt mean they arent good.

They are going to stomp a lot of teams because no one is going to be able to guard them. They just have to play better D and get some PG production out of Murray and Mudiay.

They can't play better D. They were the worst defense in the NBA last year and did nothing in the offseason to improve that defense. They are going to be saying ole on defense all year. They are an 8 seed at best.

Did nothing? You know they added Paul Millsap, right?
 
He's not the defender that he once was. And he's not going to completely change their defense by himself. Their other offseason moves were offense oriented. Trey Lyles, Tyler Lydon...

Yes he is. He was a great defender last year in Atlanta, one of the best in the NBA. Taking out Gallinari and adding Millsap is a huge defensive upgrade. Please stop acting otherwise you lose credibility.

What's there to discuss?

They were the worst defensive team last year. I said they need to play better D. You say they can't, which makes no sense, because they added a top defensive talent to their team. They can only improve, at least relative to the NBA. You ignored facts to make a unsubstantiated claim.

An 8th seed in the West is still a damn fine team, possibly the 10th or 11th best team in the league.
