    What a game by Mozgov!!! UNBELIEVABLE! Finally we could see the real Timoha. The main thing now is not to stop and try to continue in that vein.

    I'm a little surprised. I thought Mozgov's value was only that he is a big dude with a really wide body. I thought he'd be an OK post defender and I was skeptical of his signing. Anyhow, great to see him put up such a huge game. Let's hope it continues!!

In a book, they write they find a skeleton of [an] eagle and there is no fish. It means that the fish beat him and killed him, but he didn't let go." -- Donatas Motiejunas

    Timofey Mozgov was part of the Carmelo Anthony Block Buster Trade and the rookie now finds himself in a rebuilding Denver Nuggets franchise and could be utilized as a third stringer center behind starter Nene Hilario and the veteran back-up center Chris Anderson.

    I got to watch him play a little more today on TV. He's a really fast guy. Marc Jackson and Jeff Van Gundy said he was "very active," and one of the commentators said "no wonder Denver held out for this guy [in the trade talks]."

    He seemed to do a very good job of boxing out and playing help defense. He still seems rough offensively, maybe a little like Kendrick Perkins.
