Bridges shot is ridiculously good. I can't wait to see him and Booker in a game pushing each other, kind of like Q and JJ did or even Majerle and Wes Person.

End of 3rd quarter:

Nuggets 92 - Suns 79

This could still turn into a game. The Suns seem to be relaxing... making the right play.

TJ Warren's refined shot has made him an immeasurably more effective player.

I don't think he's going to shoot 60% from three all year, but I don't think this start is a fluke either. He shot looks different, much smoother motion, no more line drives, much faster release too, and he's obviously looking for chances to shoot threes, where before he obviously avoided it.

To be honest, I was going to be shocked if we won either of these games with Denver and GS. Just a little disappointing they aren't running the offense like the other night.

Has IT played? I fast forwarded most of the first half once I got home and started reading the board. I'm pretty much caught up now but don't recall seeing that midget in there at all. Is he injured?

I like that we're still fighting. Those games where we'd be fall behind early and then totally surrender in the 2nd quarter were far too frequent.

Plus I agree with Leander, it isn't curve balling to the hoop either.

Yeah, his hip is still a problem.

I expect it’s too big of a hole to dig back from for a bunch of young guys but I love that they cut it to seemingly competitive.

Good to see Booker hit that 3. He needs to get it going.

Booker and Curry the only guys to step back further from the basket to hit threes!!!

NBA officiating is absolutely atrocious. It makes the product hard to watch

It's been pretty bad and it's way too soon for it to be this bad. I looked up to see if there was a significant change of some sort because it seems to be a league wide issue that is about as bad as when the NFL refs were on strike and they had replacement refs. The only change this year seemed to be enforcing moving screens more but that doesn't explain the issues with this game.

The Suns need to get hot and go on a roll.

The Denver crowd doesn't like Booker. I hadn't heard them get that loud but when Booker's at the FT line they really lit up.
