Coach Malone said this loss in Atlanta came down to three things:
1. The Nuggets weren’t ready to play
2. Denver got beat on the boards by 10
3. 16 turnovers for 26 points – 11:09 PM

#Pelicans are tied with Nuggets for second place in West (both 14-8, Denver technically ahead due to better conference record). New Orleans will host Nuggets on Sunday to start 4-game homestand. Trey Murphy, clearly already fired up for it: “So much fun. Tune in for a show.” – 10:40 PM

NEW for @MileHighSports:
The Nuggets did not bring the requisite energy and effort to win in Atlanta.
Dejounte Murray tore up the pick and roll defense, calling into question just how much the Nuggets care to defend at this part of the season.

One of the best moments of tonight’s action. Bogdan Bogdanovic made his season debut tonight and scored his first points. He’s back healthy and that’s great for the Hawks.

The biggest mystery of this season is that the Nuggets massively upgraded their defense this summer but have been significantly worse on that end of the floor than they were last season. Denver has to figure out why that’s the case. – 9:48 PM

It was all well and good when the Nuggets had Vlatko to guard SGA and save that game, but call this another one with both Bruce Brown and KCP in the starting lineup and the opposing lead playmaker gets wherever he wants to go.

Hawks are 6-6 form the floor w/ 9:05 left in 1Q. Hawks lead 13-2.
The Hawks have been sharing the ball and making the Nuggets work. Jarrett Culver has made some really nice passes and has really hustled on both ends of the floor. – 7:45 PM

Asked Malone whether he’s seen progress on MPJ as well.
He said he’s making improvements but didn’t participate in practice yesterday.
Said they’re going to stay patient with him until he’s ready to return.
Still no real time frame on Porter. – 6:08 PM
