Unfortunately, Rudy Gobert (calf) vs. Nikola Jokic (toe) tonight will be a contest of who has the best bench outfit. – 10:00 PM

Thinking about how Denver doesn’t have a 3P shooter better than 37% in their starting lineup and how Jamal Murray shot 40.8% last year and Michael Porter Jr. shot 44.5% last year.
Spacing just would never be an issue. – 4:55 PM
