Pre Game



How am I supposed to work when the nuggets play tonight?



I heard the Jazz actually moved on from Quinn Snyder because they installed UV lighting, introduced silver fabric in their jerseys and started selling garlic fries, all of which were deal breakers for him



My excitement levels are so high I'm making sounds that no 30 year old man should make



Omg, first game thread of the championship season, LFG!!!



It’s weird how stoked I am for this game



Journey to Salt Lake City begins! I’ll be at the game adjacent to nuggets bench area 25 rows up rocking a Murray Mile High City Edition. 7th away game experience! Hoping for a good crowd. Let’s go Nuggets!:D



I think a more apt name would be the "Utah Missionaries" for religious reasons, and since it is the only legal sex position there. Can we get D Wade to change this?



Drinkin EggNugg tonight for the game, let’s win by 30



Nuggets should NEVER expect a game to be a gimme, even the Jazz should be a test for us, especially given our history in Utah.

As for a real test, GSW should give us a better game, but we'll have to see how our chemistry is developing so far.



Lets start the season with a win and good health! Health is the key to getting this trophy in June 2023:



trade for rudy gay just so he stops killing us



Jazz fans wear whitey tighteys and granny panties. Nuggets fans wear Nuggthongs, built different.



Utah is racing to the bottom. LA plain sucks.

Denver should handle both of them easily.





My oh my how times have changed for us Denverites. We now live in a world where Nuggets season can’t come soon enough to relieve us from the horrors of Bronco fandom.



I’m so pumped for this version of the Nuggets. Not even cautiously optimistic as in years past, but straight up PUMPED. This team has a vibe to it that I don’t recall sensing at any point in the past 33 years of following them.







Nuggets -8



f**k Utah we gonna make them our b***h



It's kinda impossible to predict but I think the Nugget should win handily. Nuggets are favored by 7.5 points right now. Wolves/Thunder and Hawks/Rockets being the only games with a bigger spread.

Nuggets are significantly more talented and matchup well across the board. Question will be what MPJ/Murray look like. I think you could see abit of an emotional boost with them being back in the lineup as well. I haven't checked Utah's lineup yet but last I looked they could potentially be starting Markkanen, Vanderbilt, and Olynyk in the frontcourt. That's a hilariously bad matchup for them against out frontcourt.



totally forgot bogdonovic is gone too



Ready to f**k the state of Utah







1st Half



Why are we losing to a bunch of rookies? This is embarrassing. Preseason sure I get it. But the first game of the season?! Cannot lose to a team with no stars if you want to win a chip warriors are gonna crush us badly



Yeah and then gave up 37 in the first quarter to a Donovan Mitchell-less Jazz. C’mon defense!



We’re down to Utah bro…



Jazz are on fire from 3. Some bad rebounding luck.



Man, this is just not fair. The team that won't win more than 30 games and won't shoot better than 30% from 3 is like 55% from 3 against us and on a pace to break their franchise record



We are actually not playing that bad, they are just hitting at extremely high level. Important to punish them inside, and get their bigs in the foul trouble. They have no answer for AG and Jok.



I ****ing hate Markkanen and Rudy Gay. They always go balls to the wall against us, every ****ing time.



Sometimes you can’t do anything but laugh lmao


Tony Brothers wanted this game so he could **** over the Nuggets but it turns out that no one can **** over the Nuggets like the Nuggets



This Jazz team is supposed to be tanking!?



**** the entire state of Utah (well, to be fair, as an expat - there's only about 3 states I actually like)



I feel like I've said "oh **** I didn't know he was on the jazz" like 10 times already



malone wants to focus on defense and yet we gave up 37 1st quarter to UTAH



For all you wanting to watch, you are not missing anything. We are getting embarrassed by a team with 5 new players.



So Utah was picked the last team in rankings in the NBA and smoking the Nuggets! What does that say about the coaches and intensity



Nugglife



Down 54-36 to the Tanking Jazz??? I know it’s the 1st half and 81 more games to play, BUT this is how you play the 1st half of the 1st game of the regular season, watching the Broncos way too much…SMH



Jazz aint gonna shoot like this all game. Need to step up the rebounding and we'll be fine.



More open 3s, surely the jazz will miss eventually



Is jarred vanderbilt the greatest offensive rebounder of all time



For the Jazz! That might have been the worst first half I’ve seen the Nuggets play ever!



Just have to laugh tbh.



Has Jamal played basketbll ever before



Lol......75 to 53 jazz at the half



I understand being down and not playing well, but losing to Utah by 22 at half is just flat out not being ready? Championship caliber teams don’t do this on opening night… 22??? They are suppose to be up 22. Disappointing



Vanderbilt has 12 rebounds LMFAO



Really? 75 points to the Jazz in one half. That’s embarrassing



We got defensive minded players this off-season for this? And how tf is Jordan in the league? Can't even give hustle. Definition of useless



getting blown out by the jazz who just blew up their roster?



Here we go again! 75 points in a half! I read on ESPN that the Jazz are projected in Vegas to not win more then 25 games this year. How many times do they play us, we are usually a win for them.



points at the half, what a start in the wrong direction



Can I bet that the Jazz will never have a half that good for the rest of the year?



First half was an abomination. I’ll write it off as “us against the World” Jazz having a good home opener. Unless it becomes a trend.





What a horrific half. Also it's starting to get a little annoying how uninvolved MPJ is. That's on Malone and even Jokic/Murray to an extent. He must be so annoying off the court lol because they don't even look for him. A couple weeks away from it looking like a Mitchell/Gobert situation.



I bet this is the Jazz' best half of the year.



Why are we still here? Just to suffer?



Have you guys seen the Utah coach. he is a kid



Will Hardy and Danny Ainge might be the most Mormon looking duo in Utah.



Dude we can’t give up 15 second chance points in the 1st quarter.



is this the tanking utah jazz or playoffs golden state warriors?



Of course we're getting creamed by the Utah Scrubs to start the season. Of course we bloody are.



I read that we're something like 2-15 vs Utah in season openers. It really is tradition huh.



VANDERBILT OFFENSIVE BOARDS OMG PLEASE NO MORE



It’s always ****ing utah always every ****ing time we play them they just ****ing shoot lights out from 3.



Mike Conley has been devastating to our cause. Well played old man.



gg jazz. but also **** you



This Jazz team is gonna win like 20 games this year and they’re whooping our ***. The ****?



I never considered for even a second that we could lose this game. What the actual ****



NOT RUDY GAY! NOT THIS GUY!



Absolutely awful defensive rebounding. Kessler ****ing feasting on the glass



Why tf does Markkanen always go nuts against us, I hate him so much lol



We might never make a shot again.



Not enjoyable



We really letting these ****ING BUMS SCORE 70 IN A HALF MAN



The offensive rebounds are getting ridiculous at this point.



I’m glad Vanderbilt isn’t on the nuggets so I don’t have to watch him lick his lips a million times a game



This Utah team is like the worst roster I've seen in years



I don’t mean to sound rude but I hate everyone in this crowd



Is it morally wrong to turn off the opener?



Can the bench not die when they come in



MPJ dribbling is like imagining if my arms turned to spaghetti



First Half summary

Rebounds: Jazz 27, Nuggets 11

3pt shooting: Jazz 11-22, Nuggets 2-8

Former Nugget Vando has 12 rebounds.


a lot of people might disagree, but I don’t think this has been a good first half for the Nuggets



Utah roster was picked out for high energy in each position. Fair play to them it’s working great game 1


2nd Half



God bless Colorado sports' fans for all their hope and enthusiasm at the start of a season. One day their faith may be rewarded.



Don’t get your hopes up guys Jokic is soon going to the bench which will start a 24-3 Utah run



Yo, Kessler's got some sauce around the rim



I mean is anyone shocked Sexton is cooking us. Guard with above average speed. Our kryptonite.



Utah's coach looks like a lesbian



I waited for this moment and all I got was c**k and ball torture



Omg I completely forgot Walker Kessler existed



Still begging to just generate a shot for MPJ in the halfcourt. Just once. Please.



Jokic needs to play from beggining of the the 4Q if we want to win



Nuggets effort in the 1st half was awful. Nuggets bench was atrociously bad. Bones was about as bad as I've ever seen him. Get Ish in the rotation ASAP or stagger MPJ.



Jazz bench 35. Nuggets bench 9.

Utah is 16-for-35 from 3-pt range (45.7%) while Denver is 5-for-20 (25%)

This is the main reason why the Jazz have a double-digit lead



Conley is a pest. Underrated as an all-around player.



Malone will point to the defense and he's right. But it's also much easier for the other team to score when they're in transition because they never have to take the ball out from under their own basket.



Another season, same rubbish. Non-functioning bench, usual allergies to defense, and waaay too many threes by guys who can't hit them. Malone hanging by a thread sadly.



Deandre jordan gets abused by tiny Mike Conley on an and1 finish at the rim? We REALLY need to reconsider the backup 5 spot. That's an unforgivable mistake. If DJ cant protect the rim against a 6 footer what do u expect him to do when someone like Obi Toppin is coming for his neck?! We look awful
 
Maybe it is because it has been months since I have read one of these but this one seems like an all time great. Beating teams who think they are really good and who think we are really bad is the best. Thanks JA
 
Lets be honest "jokovic" looked out of shape

Murray looked very rusty

MPJ is still a me first player

Kcp is over rated as usual

They have no pg

Aaron Gordon is empty stats

Bones hyland needs to get way better if he is going to be taken serious for 6th man
