NBA Finals: Nuggets Lose Game 2, Miami Steals Homecourt Jun 05, 2023

Show notes

Denver only lost by three, but they lost due to a concert of disasters. The defense becomes completely unglued, the offense gets away from its process, and KCP, Jamal Murray, and especially MPJ struggle. The Heat shoot the lights out, but is that about random variance, Denver's defense, or Miami's identity? Did Malone lose the coaching matchup? What causes an energy letdown in the Finals?

All this and more on Locked on Nuggets.

For All Nuggets May 27, 2023

Show notes

With the NBA Finals less than a week away, we still don't know who Denver will face. But Matt Moore has thoughts on the importance of recognizing Nuggets past and the history of the franchise, on Bruce Brown having earned the right to prioritize his next big contract, and on the national media and the mechanisms that have created such a toxic view of Denver's success. This is your moment, Nuggets fans, embrace it and don't let anything, or anyone, stand in your way.
