That's just it - the layup drills have stopped so far. Part of it is that the Nuggets were built to run, and apparently Shaw wants to slow them down, but we've also been good in transition.
 
McGee is not a good defender, but it's great to see Cousins make a guy with his length and athleticism look silly in the post. Those type of guys are his nemisis
 
Not a bad first half. Much better than what we used to see in the last years.but we need to get something from MT and JT in the second.
 
We're up, but we're not playing anywhere near as good as we can. Some sloppy TOs, not getting back consistently on D, missing easy shots. Hopefully we can improve on those things after the break. If we do that and limit Lawson, we should get the win here.
 
Defense and effort were good.
I'd like to see a more disciplined offense though, too many bad shots by guys who aren't supposed to take them and Cousins really needs to cut the mid range attempts.
 
A lot of positives that half for sure. Thought Cousins and Ppat played really well off each other and we did a fairly decent job of slowing down Denver transition. If you turn them into a half-court team, they become heavily reliant on jumpers. When we started getting lazy with our transition defense, we saw how quickly they're able to turn a game around on us
