Nuggets Wing Rotation, Eurobasket Takeaways, and Pelicans vs. Nuggets Sep 19, 2022

Show notes

Eurobasket wraps up, Jokic isn't All-Eurobasket. Should Denver have kept Juancho Hernangomez? Then we turn our attention to the wings. Is this the deepest wing rotation the Nuggets have had in the Jokic era? Who gets minutes at the end between Davon Reed and Christian Bruan? Then we dissect the Southwest Division, and walk away unimpressed with Memphis' chances, optimistic on what the Pelicans can do, and disagree on how good Dallas can be. All this and more on Locked on Nuggets.

Plus, Italy caused problems with Jokic in pick and roll and that may still be a problem Denver has to figure out. Then, we look at the Pacific Division, whether the Suns are the new Jazz, if the Lakers can be above .500, and why we're relatively high on the Kings.
