Nuggets Bounce Back Vs. Pelicans | The Bones Conundrum Feb 01, 2023

Show notes

The Nuggets get a terrific performance from their stars as Nikola Jokic gets another triple double (now averaging one on the season), Jamal Murray goes off from deep, and MPJ plays solid in a win over the Pelicans to snap their mini-losing streak. But the bigger story is Bones Hyland and his (possibly short) future with the Nuggets. How did we get here, what happened between Monday and now, what is the possible return, and what went wrong with such a talented player to reach this point? Will Bones be traded?And if so for what, and if so will the Nuggets regret the move?

Nuggets melt down vs. Sixers as Joel Embiid dominates Jan 29, 2023

Show notes

Was the gameplan good vs. the Sixers? Probably. So what happened? Denver is undone by two minutes of horrible, undisciplined play and Joel Embiid kicks down the door to win late in a devastating loss for Denver and Nikola Jokic's MVP chances. We talk the coaching mismatch that played out, how to counter PJ Tucker on Jokic, the importance of urgency, bench problems, trade questions, and the MVP race after a disheartening loss for Denver.

Joker Returns And Nuggets Clutch Another Win Jan 25, 2023

Show notes

The Nuggets could have won by more in New Orleans, but missed some shots. In the end, though, Joker hits the clutch shot, the Nuggets play clutch defense, again, and they get out with a victory. Now they have a wild travel spot for a back to back, will anyone play? The Nuggets' secret may lie in just putting long players around Jokic long-term. Plus, trade talk and more.

No Jokic No Problem Jan 22, 2023

Show notes

Denver wins vs. the Pacers without Nikola Jokic. Don't ever overlook how good the entire Nuggets roster is and how capable they are, with or without Joker. The team has embraced its identity and plays Nuggets basketball with or without Joker. The Western Conference is a mess while the Nuggets and Grizzlies have separated themselves. The trade market doesn't forebode a monster move to establish a new favorite, either. Finally, the Thunder are a sneaky team that Denver has to watch out for, no matter who suits up.

Life for the Nuggets as favorites Jan 20, 2023

Show notes

Nikola Jokic is the favorite for MVP, again. The Nuggets are the favorites to win the Western Conference. The Nuggets are suddenly the hunted. Denver pulls off a win vs. the Wolves, but the process, especially for the bench, wasn't great, again. As Denver finishes its prolonged homestand, where do the Nuggets go from here as they seek to separate themselves from the rest of the West?
