    Overall dud tonight. Had 2-3 good moments other than that was distracted with the physical play. Offered nothing positive

    I’m guessing sitting a series had him coiled and ready to strike, because he did. Came out and beasted, had to be the 2nd best player of the game after AD. Got Jokic frustrated and in foul trouble, even hit 5-8 of his free throws. After the 1st quarter Denver had dropped 38 on us and were up, he came in and shut it down.

    He looked so rested, so full of energy. I missed seeing him out there. Bring him back, please.

    Dawite Rodman deserves game ball for his defensive effort and for getting in Denver's heads. Denver fell apart in the 2ne quarter thanks to Dawite's antics. He got jock itch in foul trouble and the T on Murray. I loved watching it.

    Howard was instrumental in the second half with his play. Physicality...flushes...able to keep Jokic engaged. Did not throw a cross body block for tonight. Made some at the stripe too.

    A true force and fury unleashed tonight. Howard went Dark Dwight on the Joker and almost fouled him out of the bubble. Blocking balls out of existence with a smile on his face with his gargantuan power those are more than just chips on his shoulders now. Loved the dunk of the Rondo dime. We showed we can beat teams small and tonight beat Denver with size, speed and aggressiveness.

    Dwight is a true professional. Sat out the entire Rockets series and then proceeds to put a demolition job on Jokic. A+ performance.

    Dwight is playing like a dude who wants that championship, and the signing off on being in the Hall of Fame.

    Funny moment in the game... Howard happened to be just standing there when the Nuggets were talking as a group at midcourt. Active on the boards. Drew fouls on the Nugget bigs by being so.

    Glad we’re not playing the midgets in Houston anymore because Dwight has been a joy to watch this year when he plays the way he did tonight.

    He was spry and dominant. The head games were for real as well. He irritated the heck out of the Joker - same as Rondo did to Westbrook and Soften. Fun stuff! Dwight let the Joker know - you're going to have to deal with me all series long.

    Have a feeling the clips are going to try to steal Dwight from us next season.

    That would absolutely be on brand for them, they took so many of our former players over the last decade it’s not even funny.

    I’d be fine letting McGee walk and resigning this man asap. He’s more than proven his worth this season.
