What’s the buzz on Twitter?

Adam Mares @Adam_Mares
Feels like Jeff Green is shooting 80% this season on the team’s Jeff Green ISO play. They call it 3 or 4 times per game to get him a switch and an ISO on the left block/elbow. – 10:18 PM
Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Julius Randle really isn’t the king of high quality shot selection. He’s got a couple threes to go, but if he’s gonna turn and fade 1-on-1 in the post against KCP, go ahead. – 10:17 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
Cam Reddish is either having trouble with the thin air or gravity in the early going here in Denver. – 10:17 PM

I swear the Nuggets’ center court looked like this at shootaround. Not sure what happened. pic.twitter.com/zfT2ECIEh210:12 PM

Vinny Benedetto @VBenedetto
DeAndre Jordan wins the tip and comes up with a big block on Denver’s first defensive possession against the Knicks. Michael Porter Jr. opens the scoring with a corner 3 a couple of offensive possessions later. – 10:11 PM
Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Alright, we’re getting ready here. Both the Nuggets and Knicks are in City Edition unis. Unique jersey matchup to say the least. – 10:09 PM

Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Thing to know about the Knicks: they’re second in the NBA in points in the paint and 28th in the NBA in 3P%.
As Michael Malone said pregame, the Nuggets will have to shrink the floor tonight and deal with the results. – 9:55 PM

Deleted my tweet about Bones Hyland because he IS ACTIVE tonight – 9:49 PM
Duvalier Johnson @DuvalierJohnson
Looks like Bones Hyland is going to give it a go tonight against the Knicks. pic.twitter.com/5DVnLRJ9Yy9:49 PM

Steve Popper @StevePopper
Bones Hyland is on the court in uniform so looks like he’s going to go for Nuggets — but not starting. DeAndre Jordan, KCP, Murray, Porter Jr and Jeff Green. – 9:48 PM
Bobby Manning @RealBobManning
Hauser finished +35 tonight. Best +/- in the #NBA at +121, blowing by Nikola Jokic’s +112. – 9:46 PM
Vinny Benedetto @VBenedetto
The Nuggets will start Jamal Murray, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Michael Porter Jr., Jeff Green and DeAndre Jordan tonight against the Knicks. – 9:32 PM

Here come the #Celtics shooting for that record they set against the #Knicks with 27 threes a few weeks ago. Up to 19 on Pritchard’s early in the 4th. – 9:29 PM
Bobby Manning @RealBobManning
Hauser’s insane +/- run continues. +26 tonight. Entered the day T-8th at +86 this season.
If he finishes +26, he’ll tie Nikola Jokic at +112 for #1 in the #NBA9:26 PM

Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
So far for the Knicks, they’ve lost their only back-to-back, getting blown out by the Boston Celtics.
This one’s a little different, but a b2b at altitude is never easy. – 8:59 PM
Duvalier Johnson @DuvalierJohnson
Bones Hyland has not played in a few games as he was in health and safety protocols.
He’s questionable headed into tonight’s game but is out and going through pregame workouts. @DNVR_Nuggets pic.twitter.com/POiqCQtGrE8:36 PM

Vinny Benedetto @VBenedetto
Michael Malone on next steps for Nikola Jokic who is in health and safety protocols: “Get healthy, clear protocols, come back. That’s in our sports science team’s (hands). …” – 8:33 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
“Could be” the same starting five for the Knicks tonight, Tom Thibodeau says. – 8:30 PM
Katy Winge @katywinge
Bones Hyland is out going through his pregame warmup. He’s been cleared from health and safety protocols but is a game time decision based on how he’s feeling. pic.twitter.com/3cIkDOHFIJ8:29 PM

Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Michael Malone on how roles change for Jamal/MPJ with Jokic (and Gordon) OUT:
“We’ll do things a little differently without Nikola, but we need Jamal to be the best version of himself. We need Michael to continue playing the way he’s been playing on both ends of the floor.” – 8:26 PM
Duvalier Johnson @DuvalierJohnson
Aaron Gordon is OUT tonight against the New York Knicks. @DNVR_Nuggets pic.twitter.com/MLQJeHzRNT8:19 PM

Coach Malone on AG: “I don’t think he’s going to play.”
Coach Malone says Bones Hyland is in the building and has been cleared to play, but if he does is still to be determined. He’s been out since Friday, it’s a question of if he feels good enough to go. – 8:18 PM

Michael Malone on Aaron Gordon “I don’t think he’s playing.”
Bones Hyland is in the building. He’s been cleared but it’s still to be determined if he will play. – 8:16 PM
Steve Popper @StevePopper
Mike Malone said he believes Aaron Gordon isn’t playing – along with Nikoka Jokic. Bones Hyland has been cleared to play, but a game time decision. – 8:16 PM

Christian Braun was the first Nugget out getting shots up.
Three hours before the game and it was an intense shooting workout of him wanting to get better and get a feel. pic.twitter.com/OwGjJhZltm7:55 PM

Obi Toppin is one of six qualified players (at least 100 FG attempts) shooting above 49% from the floor and above 90% from the free-throw stripe.
The other five are:
Kevin Durant,
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander,
Bradley Beal,
John Collins and
Stephen Curry
