Frankly, I'm not surprised at all about this slate of questionable players. This is a game that's starting late, in Denver altitude, when we play a divisional game against Dallas tomorrow night. If there was ever game they were going to sit people for rest, it's this one.
That said, I have no clue who will or will not actually play. Even those who do play will probably get semi-limited minutes. Oh well.
Tonight's a game. Denver are 26-13, but are only 3-3 in their last 6 and haven't been quite as perfect this year as in previous seasons. That said, Jokic is still the best player in the league in my opinion and is liable to completely control a game on any given night, so even if everyone is playing it's not the kind of game people can take lying down.
I'll be interested to see who plays and what they can manage against a very good Denver squad.
Let's go.
