A Business-Like Win And Seeding Projections Jan 10, 2023

Show notes

On today's show, Denver takes care of business and freewheels a bit vs. a bad Lakers team without LeBron. Joker has a perfect triple double that wasn't really all that difficult (?!). The bench has good moments again. We talk about what the Nuggets still have to improve including free throw shooting and transition defense, and wrap up talking about where the Nuggets will finish in the standings.

Is This The Best The Nuggets Can Be? Jan 09, 2023

Show notes

Adam Mares returns! Adam's back and the Nuggets are rolling. He and Matt Moore break down the Cavaliers game and how awe-inspiring the Nuggets' offense is right now, how they have answers for every problem, and what that means. Then, the two talk the bench and whether Denver needs "another piece" or if they're good to go, and Adam talks about the importance of Bones Hyland to the formula. Then, the two tackle the question of whether Denver is peaking too early and whether they have another gear to get to.

Denver Levels Up Vs. Boston Celtics Jan 02, 2023

Show notes

The Nuggets get another incredible win, this time against the best team in the league, the Boston Celtics. The Celtics go cold, the Nuggets played great defense, and both are related but not entirely causational. The Denver offense got what it wanted and played way bigger than Boston. The bench shines again behind efforts from Bones Hyland, Vlatko Cancar, and Zeke Nnaji. Aaron Gordon is Mr. Nugget, MPJ finally gets loose vs. the Celtics, and more from a signature win with a weird stoppage.

MPJ Puts In Work As Nuggets Cooly Push Past Kings Dec 28, 2022

Show notes

What does it mean for the Nuggets to be the best clutch team in the league? Denver gets another win behind a dynamite performance from Michael Porter Jr. with 30 points, but Adam Mares liked the completeness of MPJ's game. The bench struggles but various players had promising moments, and the Nuggets truly look like the team they had promise to be. Adam's confidence is back.
