I love the competitiveness. Man, I was so down on the front office, so many blunders. When they’re right I gotta give them credit. Two moves one of them considered insane. Doug “Freaking” Christie moved from end of the bench to interim HC and signing JV. The DC move alone should salvage Monte’s job. Doug is a winner and gets the most from a very flawed lineup. JV is scary I mean literally huge + on rim protection and Keon and JV are a great defensive 1-2 punch.
Our next game is in Denver. I checked their record.
Nuggets started season 11-10, now they are 39-22.
In their last 17 games they played teams with winning record 7 times. 2-5. Ws were on the road against Pistons and Pacers
Nuggets have 9 losses at home, 8 against teams with winning records and 1 against Spurs with then healthy Alien. And then Spurs had a winning record of 17-16 before the game and, naturally, 18-16 after.
Sure, I just try to look for some extra oxygen, if it's even available

Missed that one.
Out of top 10 teams in the west, only 2 have road losing records. Mavs are 13-17 on the road, Clippers even a bit worse 13-18.
Clippers already lost 3 games to Suns this season: 113-116, 119-125, 109-111. Hmmmm, can't win against Suns in a contested game.
Clippers lost Powell last game due to injury, won't play today.
Suns got a second chance. It was just announced that Kyrie is out due to the torn ACL (ouch). Game just upped a level a bit in terms of post-season aspirations.
Suns can get into play-ins simply by losing less games than Mavs. Mavs play without Kyrie is just... chaotic mehhh.
Or Suns will still be out because lately Blazers play like a different team. Kings play like a different team because simply everything is different from MB's 13-18 earlier in the season.

With all the injuries and assuming Domas comes back healthy I like our chances between most of the teams behind us unless the Blazers sneak in. Still would consider that a coinflip of sorts. We'll see what happens at the end of the month because the last game in Portland we were in it until the last minute and it was Zach's second game, Jonas's first and LaRavia and Fultz weren't with us yet. But they still gave us fits and I suspect they will only keep getting better.

And the reality is now players are making sure they don't go to teams that emptied their cupboards for them. Durant basically said as much about going to the Warriors and how they'd be better off doing it in the offseason or some BS, lol. Fox made sure the Kings didn't get anything that hindered his chances to have assets around him. It's crazy to think, back in the day players kind of put failure upon themselves and were insulted if they got a weak trade package back. Times have changed.
