Quin's rotation - he deserves a game ball

That line-up with Udoh, Johnson, Sefalosha and Burks ripped Denver a new nugget. The Jazz were just quicker and had more energy.
 
You would be singing a different tune if Burks hadn't caught streaky hot fire and Denver couldn't buy a bucket in our porous defense. Denver was missing so many wide open looks. #thanksQuin!
Couldn't buy a bucket? Bruh, they couldn't even attempt buckets in the 4th. 10 forced TOs.

Those turnovers weren't forced. Denver was simply playing carelessly.

Shouldn't you be starting another lame *** church of Sefolosha or Udoh thread?

That’s a good idea! Get on it, [MENTION=848]dalamon[/MENTION].

Yep. Rubio was right up in the face of the opposing player, making him step back over the line. JJ stripped the ball out of Jokic's arms. Jokic was trapped at the baseline, going out of bounds and had to throw wildly towards top of key (and past everyone). At least 3 forced TO's I can think of off the top of my head without going back and watching. Most TO's aren't from playing "carelessly" unless the players are truly ****ty. Denver is a solid team. They're like the Jazz of a couple of years ago: barely missed the playoffs and were expected to make a leap. I think they still will. But for at least one night, they were outplayed, outhustled and out coached.
 
Think about this: Denver was the BEST offensive team in the NBA over the last two months last season. And they improved at PF. In the fourth quarter they had 7 points until those two final, meaningless 3's. Franklin can position it however he likes. A collapse is still a collapse. And it came against the team that had the 3rd best defense last season. I'm no statistical genius and i haven't done correlation since college, but I tend to think the two might be related in a cause and effect kind of way.
