FYI, this is why you double Luka early. You try to avoid letting him get into a shooting rhythm if you can help it. He might turn if on at some point, but he’s missing some shots now that he definitely can hit. – 11:50 PM

Hyland is back in the rotation and had some solid minutes including knocking down 2 3-pointers.

Before tonight’s game vs. Nuggets, Jason Kidd asked fans for patience with Jaden Hardy’s playing time:
“Right now, we’ve got a good thing going. Hardy has to wait. Ask Josh. Twitter isn’t the coach or the player. It’s just a platform to express your opinion.” pic.twitter.com/yVt73PMGvU – 9:48 PM

More Kidd on Hardy: “We have guys who all want to play. What he’s done in the G-League is what we were hoping he could do. And he’s going to continue to spend time there, and with us. But right now, for his playing time, unless you guys want me to play Luka less? (more) – 9:18 PM

Jason Kidd had a very enlightening pregame newser. His comment on the quick turnaround and altitude in Denver: “We’ll keep our eye on those guys who start, maybe get those guys out a little earlier. That being said, we got to make sure we don’t get knocked out in the 1st qtr.” – 8:54 PM

“I have to find ways to get him out there. We drafted Christian Braun, and he’s shown flashes this season of the player that he can be,” Nuggets coach Michael Malone said pregame. Added Braun hadn’t maintained his level since the first 5 games where he was in rotation. – 8:37 PM

Watching the film back from last night and the season opener, the only excuse I can think of for the Suns hardly ever trapping Luka is not tipping their hand in case they meet in the playoffs. Because otherwise…yeesh. Defense got sliced and diced playing straight up/switching – 6:05 PM
