The Nuggets are obliterated in Game 2 at home vs. the Wolves and face and 0-2 deficit. Jamal Murray was awful but Matt Moore feels this loss goes squarely on the shoulders of Nikola Jokic. "Disinterested" is the word and it's a big problem when the best player on the planet can't be bothered to compete. Jamal Murray struggles but his problem was trying to do too much not too little. The coaching staff can't get the message across to compete from the opening gate and that brings worrying questions to mind. All this plus how Denver can start to turn thing around for a miracle comeback on Locked on Nuggets.

Adam Mares and Matt Moore go deep dive into whether the Nuggets are in peak form. Adam believes four of the Nuggets' starters are but one guy not being there messes up the whole thing. Matt's pretty concerned with the gap between last year's performance and this year so far. Then they dive deep into the matchups for both the Wolves and Nuggets, strengths and weaknesses, the importance of turnovers, and how many Jokic is going to have to play. Plus, series predictions and whether Murray responds as the Nuggets take on the Timberwolves.

Denver had answers when they needed them and now faces a Timberwolves team that looks like the best in the West. Matt Moore and Swipa Cam break down the Game 5 dismissal of the Lakers and preview Wolves-Nuggets on Swipe And Gripe.

The Nuggets lose Game 5. Jamal Murray is questionable. Jokic's defense has been bad.
Are... are the Nuggets in trouble? World's Finest is here to break it down. Jamal Murray has a calf strain and hasn't looked anything close to Playoff Murray outside of one quarter in Game 2. Can he rise above and deliver the Nuggets to the second round? Do the Nuggets need to keep finishing strong or should they maybe start strong too? Who has to step up if Murray just can't be the player he was in the playoffs last year? If they win, it's fine. If they don't...

WORLD'S FINEST! The Nuggets are still basking in the glow of Monday's incredible Game 2 win. Adam Mares shares his biggest reaction as the dust settles, and why Denver can't settle now. The officiating was a huge hot take factory after Game 2 for the Lakers. Will the officiating swing violently back the other way for the team with the biggest free throw advantage in the league to begin with? Plus, a look at the other NBA playoff races on Locked on Nuggets!
The Lakers had it all: a big lead, a huge night from AD, and a chance to make it a series. But no, the Nuggets rally and Jamal Murray breaks their hearts. Matt Moore breaks down the wild night at Ball Arena.
World's Finest kicks off playoff recap szn by breaking down the Nuggets' Game 1 win over the Lakers. LA threw a great first punch, got a lead, got awesome games (at least in the box score) from LeBron and AD, a subpar shooting night from Jamal Murray, and none of it mattered as Denver eventually solved LA and ran away with a 1-0 lead. Who can play in this series and who can't? Credit to DJ, disagreement on CB, and why fixing the Lakers problems will only cause new ones for them vs. Denver. Adam Mares and Matt Moore break it all down on Locked on Nuggets.

Nikola Jokic will not be denied as the Nuggets reclaim the 1-seed in the battle for the West vs. the Timberwolves. Minnesota plays a great game but Jokic's 41-11-17 performance along with big contributions from Peyton Watson and Christian Braun off the bench get Denver the win and reclaim the 1-seed with two games left. Should Michael Malone get more consideration for Coach of the Year? How great was Christian Braun's dunk on Rudy Gobert? All this and more on a triple-sized edition of Locked on Nuggets with Matt Moore, Adam Mares, and Swipa.

Jamal Murray returns as Denver beats the Hawks, who are just pretty sad. Justin Holiday plays great, Jay Huff has a big-time dunk, and Nikola Jokic probably plays more than he needs to. The Nuggets probably need to go 4-0 to get the 1-seed, but they have a tough back to back coming up vs. Utah and then at home vs. the Wolves. Should they rest in the Utah game or rest half in the Utah game, half in the Wolves game? Plus, Matt Moore answers your playoff questions on Locked on Nuggets.

The Nuggets get back on track in this episode of Locked on Nuggets.

Matt Moore and Adam Mares break down the Nuggets' eighth-straight win over the Los Angeles Lakers. No matter what the Lakers do, the Nuggets just find a way to get it done in the clutch. Why the Rui Hachimura Defense has not only failed but started to fail even worse. MPJ goes 10-of-10 from the field, Justin Holiday contributes, and the Nuggets are still the Lakers' daddy. What does a six-game win streak for the Nuggets mean and can they make a push for the 1-seed?

Matt Moore and Swipa break down the Nuggets' win over the Heat in a 2023 Finals Rematch. Despite being on a back to back, despite losing Jamal Murray, despite a subpar game from Nikola Jokic, Denver out-grits the grittiest team in the league to get the win. MPJ steps up big time on both ends of the floor with four stocks and 30 points in a double-double, and Jokic slams the door. Christian Braun closes over Reggie Jackson, which Matt doesn't agree with, and Jamal Murray is banged up but shouldn't miss too much time. They preview the Lakers game and talk why Miami can still win the East on Locked On Nuggets.

Matt Moore and Adam Mares talk about Nikola Jokic's text message to get the team ready for the stretch run and how he's evolved as a leader. It wasn't always guaranteed Jokic would become this type of player, but he has, and it's awesome. Then, the Kings are 3-0 vs. Denver this year. Is this a tough matchup for the Nuggets or just a scheduling quirk? How much trouble does Domantas Sabonis give Jokic? Finally, Matt has three championship trends for Adam to see if he's a buyer or seller.

Matt Moore and Adam Mares break down the Nuggets' win over the Warriors. Nikola Jokic is absolutely brilliant and they look at how he took over vs. a resurgent Warriors defense. Aaron Gordon and Jamal Murray also get their flowers for big games, and Christian Braun seems to have turned a corner. Plus, one of the better stories of the season is the resurgence/emergence of Zeke Nnaji plus what he brings at the power forward spot. A good win for the Nuggets, broken down by World's Finest on Locked on Nuggets.

What if the Nuggets don't win the title, what sunk them? Is it shooting? Is it Jamal Murray going cold? If the Nuggets win with a cold Murray, who steps up? In a bizarro world where Nikola Jokic or Jamal Murray don't win Finals MVP, who would? Who's the player outside the top 8 who could step up and have a surprising run? We ponder the multiverse on this edition of Locked on Nuggets with Matt Moore and Swipa.

The Nuggets have work to do in their last 27 games. Denver has to navigate securing a top-three seed in the Western Conference, getting Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Jamal Murray, and Aaron Gordon healthy for the playoffs, ramping up to stay sharp while cooling off to get refreshed, and somehow navigate a tough Western Conference.

Does it really matter? The Nuggets are getting some much needed rest. Let’s great the team so far.

Matt Moore and Adam Mares assess the Nuggets at the All-Star break. Denver is in a good position at the break, but it's clear the run to the repeat will be more difficult than last year. We talk about why the margin for error is smaller but why Denver is still built for the challenge. Nikola Jokic leads the second ESPN straw poll, but will he win his third MVP? Matt and Adam disagree on it being a two-man race. The Nuggets face the Kings in a revenge spot, but they might be short-handed. Matt and Adam have very different ideas about what kind of game it will be. Plus, Matt predicts someone will make the mistake of poking the bear.

The Nuggets have only one NBA championship in their franchise history. But the door is open for them to become a dynasty, Matt Moore says, because when you have the best player in the sport, No.15, you always have a chance to come out on top. He talks about the window for the Nuggets to win even if they're not the best team that season, and how when you have a guy who always comes through, that opens up your window a lot wider. Then he previews the game vs. the Milwaukee Bucks and the challenge they present.

Matt Moore and Swipa break down the Nuggets' embarrassing performance vs. the Knicks. How do the Nuggets respond to giving that kind of effort? Then, it's time to talk about Sixers-Nuggets II. What does Christian Braun need to get back on track and is it as simple as finding that dog in him again? Plus, how can the Nuggets flip the 3-point battle, who needs to guard Tobias Harris and more as Joel Embiid (hopefully) faced Nikola Jokic for the first time in five years in Denver.

Denver cruises to an easy win behind a monster Nikola Jokic game with 42 points when he didn't even have to work that hard. The Nuggets' standard no longer has let down games vs. the dregs (at least not very often). Then, Matt Moore and Adam Mares give their thoughts on the Boston win, what it showed about the Nuggets, and how the Celtics still haven't learned to problem solve the way the Nuggets can. Finally, they run through the East and if the Nuggets made the Finals, what do those matchups with the best teams from the East look like? All this and more on Locked On Nuggets.

Plus, the Michael Porter Jr. questions of why he doesn't get more shots as the game goes on and whether that's a function of defensive coverage or a lack of layering in the offensive gameplan.

Jamal Murray and MPJ shine as the Nuggets beat the Warriors. Nikola Jokic puts up his usual impressive numbers, but absolutely grifts to get there which prompts a Steve Kerr tantrum. Should Joker adopt the ways of his contemporaries? Plus, Joker plays impressive defense on Steph, and the Nuggets have found ways to flourish without needing Joker to hold their hand always (even if he has to still be on the floor).

The Nuggets get a good road win vs. a tough Nets team, as the starters put on one of their most dominant performances to date. Jamal Murray plays a fantastic game, scoring, distributing, and defending. Nikola Jokic absolutely destroys in his minutes, while AG hits free throws and MPJ gives them a burst. But the bench once again struggles, which is why we should never say the bench is "fixed." Plus, should Peyton Watson close games over the starters? What's the role for him on this team in December? And we look ahead to the Hornets and Warriors games on Locked on Nuggets.

Plus, are the Thunder where the Nuggets were in 2019? Adam has some "final" thoughts on Jalen Pickett and how to work him in as the fulcrum with this team. Big show on all things Nuggets.

The Nuggets demolish the poor tired Nets on a back to back in Denver. Joker returns to his efficient, dominant ways. The bench steps up and the starters don't have to return. Aaron Gordon looks more like himself. Jokic's workload is even better than you may think; we talk about how he's balancing effort on offense and defense. Plus, Peyton Watson has a career night and continues to grow into his game and role on Denver, and Justin Holiday is the perfect fill-in when called for.

AG is back, and Reggie Jackson is Big Government, bailing out the Nuggets again. Plus, Adam uses the phrase "The Jeff Green of Zeke Nnajis."

Nikola Jokic is not new to crazy advanced stats numbers. Two seasons ago he set the all-time single-season high for box plus-minus. Last season he put up the 3rd best BPM of all time. But this year, Jokic is setting an entirely new bar for the advance metrics. What do those stats tell us about his season? And how much longer should we expect this to go on?

Matt Moore breaks down not only the game and the reality of the DJ minutes but also the three-point problem that's slowly starting to creep up on Denver before reviewing the Nuggets' upcoming schedule and place in the NBA hierarchy after the first quarter of the season.

The Nuggets, short-handed, face the Suns, short-handed and get another win over Phoenix. Peyton Watson helps shut down KD in the second half, and maybe KD missed shots, but PWatt did the work. Nurk Nurks all over the place. Did he mean to elbow Jokic? Is it a foul? Plus, can the Suns figure out how to compete with Denver? Then, the schedule lightens up after the IST, finally, for a Nuggets team that needs the rest. Plus, Zeke Nnaji's role is still a puzzle and one that Denver needs to figure out. Matt Moore and Adam Mares break it all down on Locked on Nuggets.

The Nuggets get the most feel-good win of the season against the Clippers without Jokic, Murray, and Gordon. Reggie Jackson tears them up with savvy and touch, DeAndre Jordan (?!) dominates from multiple spots on the floor, and the bench makes things happen. What a win! Plus, the Nuggets have gotten through the non-Murray stretch and a new chapter will begin. What did we learn from Denver without Murray for those 12 games? And guess who's back. Jamal Murray likely makes his return Wednesday. Is Houston a game the Nuggets get up for? What's with Jok's weirdness about Sengun? And should MPJ stagger with the bench? A jam-packed Locked on Nuggets with Adam Mares and Matt Moore.

The Nuggets take care of the Spurs at home to break the losing streak. Nikola Jokic puts up a massive stat line and wasn't bothered at all by Victor Wembanyama. The Nuggets change the rotation to good effect as Justin Holiday gives good minutes and Peyton Watson looks how he's supposed to. Will Denver rest on the back to back? Does the Rockets game matter? And is Zeke Nnaji being out of the rotation a good or bad thing?

The Nuggets get housed by the Rockets to finish a dismal road trip. The roster is not in a position to accommodate an injury to the starting five. The bench is bad, but the starters have to be better as well. Matt Moore tries to explain that this season is just going to have these stretches because of how the team is inherently designed. Plus, yet another convo of the bench and how rotation changes won't fix it, why they can't trade for Alex Caruso, and some calming words about what happens when Jamal Murray gets back.

Nikola Jokic gets ejected in a game his team needed to win (and won). Can we criticize a player who has given and continues to give so much to his team, his franchise, and the city? We talk about the expectations and standards for the GNOAT. Plus, Christian Braun has emerged as a scoring threat and boosted the bench over the last three games. How has he done it and what does it mean for the second unit? Plus, a look around the Western Conference contenders and pretenders.

Denver loses back-to-back games for the first time this season as no one, especially Nikola Jokic, has it in Cleveland. What to make up of a two-game set where the bench lets the team down in New Orleans, and then the starters fall apart from the get-go vs. the Cavs? We break down who needs to step up, from MPJ on defense (again) to Aaron Gordon on offense (especially at the line). Plus, of course, we talk the bench. Is there a solve for this beyond just getting a cheap Jokic imitation to play center? How much does it matter that the bench can play well with Jokic but not without him? Adam Mares and Matt Moore break it down on Locked On Nuggets.

The Nuggets once again topple the Clippers. Just when it looked like LA might finally get a win over Denver, the Nuggets' clutch time defense and Nikola Jokic storm over, around, and through the Clips to leave them with nothing but a wedgie. The clutch time defense is back to being elite, the Nuggets put teams in impossible positions, and everyone steps up in another ugly win. Michael Malone says there's no one else to play pregame and then of course plays someone else in the game. We break down Jalen Pickett's first regular season game with serious minutes, the identity of the bench, and talk soup. All that and more on Locked on Nuggets.

Nikola Jokic drops a 30-20-10 (and change) but it's somehow not enough as the Nuggets' bench shows their age and skill level in a loss to Houston. Alperen Sengun battles Jokic and while he loses the battle, the Rockets win the war, handing Denver their second loss. Should the bench have rotation changes? Is it schematic? Is it worth solving given how good the starters are? Plus, a look at Jokic's historic greatness on another ho-hum hasn't-been-done-in-50-years night. All this and more on Locked on Nuggets with Adam Mares and Matt Moore.

The Nuggets play a B-minus/C-plus game and still get a big primetime win at home vs. the Warriors. Nikola Jokic doesn't have a great game and still puts up an absurd stat line. The bench struggles for the first time, a reminder of their youth, and Justin Holiday answers the call. KCP is playing 1st-Team All-Defense defense, the communication shines, Reggie Jackson comes up big, and the Nuggets finally get a break. All this and more on Locked on Nuggets.

We say every year that we can't imagine Nikola Jokic getting better and every year, he gets better. This year is no exception. Adam Mares and Matt Moore break down how Jokic's presence on the floor is different and more impactful for both teammates and opponents this season, compare his impact to peak LeBron, and take time to appreciate the All-Time Great we're watching now. Then, they break down Julian Strawther's emergence in the second unit, how he's earned his minutes, what makes his particular fit so good with the Nuggets, and what's next for him. Finally, they preview a big-time game vs. the Golden State Warriors Wednesday night, trying to guard Steph Curry, and why the bench minutes will be key to watch.

Denver eviscerates Oklahoma City in a blowout win. Peyton Watson makes a leap with his best game as a Nugget and shuts down Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Nikola Jokic welcomes Chet Holmgren to the league the same way Tim Duncan welcomed Jokic. The Nuggets bench is not just surviving but thriving. If everyone buys in like this and Denver stays mostly healthy, what stops them? At all?

The Nuggets win ugly vs. the Grizzlies in a game where some of the process was good, Joker wasn't great (by his standards) and the Nuggets still control the game. If Reggie Jackson is going to play like this in the Joker minutes, Denver may win 60 games. The Nuggets' intensity has been great to start this season and a welcome surprise.

The Nuggets celebrate their championship as they receive their championship rings and raise the first banner in franchise history. Thoughts from the players and coaches on the experience and what it was like in the arena. Then, it was time to get back to work and the Nuggets worked the Lakers from start to finish. Joker and the starting five are still the best in basketball. MPJ's sacrifice and performance beyond shooting continue to excel. AG has a sneaky, awesome game. KCP daggers his old team. And the bench has mixed results as Denver starts 1-0 in their quest to repeat.

Finally, we preview Summer League Game 1 and talk about why veteran ring chasers didn't "flock" to Denver.

Bruce Brown gets the bag and rides his horse to Indiana for a whole pile of cash. Denver can't replace Bruce, not even with an amalgam of players. They re-signed DeAndre Jordan and gave Reggie Jackson a two-year deal which is a little questionable, in Matt's mind. Plus, what the rest of the West did and why Denver will probably bet worse next year than this year, making the quest to repeat that much tougher.

We talk about what that would mean for Bruce's legacy, the choice in front of him in between two potential scenarios with the Nuggets and LA's MLE, the ramifications of the new CBA on the market and more on Bruce Brown. Then, we look around the Northwest Division and how the John Collins trade makes Utah stronger, if OKC is ready for a run, and if the Wolves are a sleeping giant.

The Nuggets are one win away from an NBA title and they did it, on the road, in the Finals, in the minutes where Nikola Jokic had to sit with four trouble. Aaron Gordon gives the best game of his career, Bruce Brown delivers in the clutch, Jamal Murray has the most mature game of his career, and Nikola Jokic's defense is at an elite level for anyone, not just him. We break it down and look forward to Monday and the biggest basketball day in Denver history for what could be a historic night in Game 5.

The Nuggets secure their biggest win in franchise history (been a lot of those lately), behind one of the greatest duo performances in NBA history. Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic become the first duo to each notch 30-point triple-doubles. Joker dominates the game from start to finish, Murray explodes over and over from the tip, and the Nuggets lead 2-1. Christian Braun is the latest hero. We talk how he beat the zone and gave the Nuggets exactly what they needed on the road in Game 3. The defense backs up their talk and gives their star duo the chance to dominate on offense. Joker dominates defensively inside. We look at Game 4 adjustments and what to expect as the Nuggets attempt to move into position for a knockout in Game 4.

Then, we talk "A Hundred Invisible Threads," Adam's Documentary on the trip to Serbia this summer, what he learned about the country, Nikola Jokic, and basketball.

The Nuggets collapsed vs. the Knicks. Matt has some different kinds of takes. Was it MPJ's fault his offensive output was so absent? Denver is up against it, how do they respond and how much of this shows underlying issues?

MPJ has maybe the most complete game of his career in a win over the Bulls. Porter has put in so much work and has such a better attitude and approach this season, and it shows. MPJ adds drives and pull-ups to his game to make his performance better, and Jokic keeps feeding him. Meanwhile, the Nuggets outclass Chicago in a good response to the Boston loss. Plus, another discussion of the bench and the issues around it.

Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray are already back to their dynamic-duo ways with the two-man game. Adam Mares talks about how good the Nuggets have been with their two best players going back to the old habits. Denver is 10% of the way through the season, so we break down how every player has been so far this season relative to expectations. Have they been better, worse, or about what we expected?

The Nuggets dazzled, dominated and delighted with a feel-good win vs. the Spurs to remain unbeaten at home. Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic's two-man game sparkles like it did before the injury. MPJ hits every shot imaginable. Joker tries audacious passes. And Bones just tries to clown absolutely everyone to great success.

Denver once again puts it to a team that they should beat, and Jamal Murray leads the charge. Murray gets separation on his stepback, finishes tough dunks, and shows why he is such a phenomenal player in his best game since his return from injury. Nikola Jokic plays aggressive enough while getting others involved, everybody hits shots including Aaron Gordon, and Malone gets to the rotation he wants. Plus, a look at the defense and the complicated question of how to get the point-of-attack energy the team needs, and the complication of Bones with the second unit staggers.

The Nuggets lose to the Lakers as injuries and foul trouble lead Michael Malone to an all-bench lineup which gets destroyed. Matt doesn't think the starters played well, but they won their minutes, so what does that say? The bench unit has no flow, identity or connectivity, and that's a problem. Jokic is easing into the season and it's getting to be a problem on both ends. Jamal Murray flashes a bit of the old Blue Arrow and lapses let a bad offense get going. A bad loss in a bad spot.

No pressure, no stress, a fun game for a home crowd and a light night of work for the starters. The Nuggets got an ideal win Friday vs. the tired Jazz, as the bench took a starter lead to 20-plus and never looked back. A look at why these games matter, why the starters' push in the first overshadowed their bad two other stints, and why wins like these matter. Bones Hyland shoots from deep again and again, and Christian Braun is the rookie every team dreams of for a playoff contender. A look at the Lakers game and why Jokic's numbers won't be MVP-level this season. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Nikola Jokic smashes the Lakers in the second half and the Nuggets cruise to a victory. Adam and Matt can't believe how bad the Lakers are, but the Nuggets also showed a lot of good things. Christian Braun makes things happen. The bench plays a little bit better when they're not matched vs. LeBron. KCP and MPJ's injuries aren't serious. A whole segment on Bruce Brown who Matt cannot rave enough about. Should he start? How do you play him with the starters enough? Plus, the defense might be as bad as we think... but maybe not quite as bad.

The Denver Nuggets get blitzed by the Portland Trail Blazers in a road loss to a division opponent, and give up 135 points in the loss. What's the key problem with the defense? Is it execution? Scheme? Personnel? Nikola Jokic shoots four times. Have we seen the return of Emotional Funk Jokic? A reminder that problems are real if they continue but overall assertions this early are dangerous.

Adam's connection improves in segments 2 and 3.
Denver not only gets its first win of the season, but gets it in Golden State over the champs. Denver puts together a cohesive performance and the new additions look great so far. Christian Braun earns his minutes and looks like a guy with a long career ahead of him. MPJ has put in the work and his comments reflect a change in approach as well. Jamal returns, the crowd goes wild, KCP makes plays, Bruce Brown is a connector, and Denver looks like the team we thought they might be. What could go wrong? (KNOCK ON WOOD.)

The most anticipated Nuggets season in history predictably started with a resounding thud as the Nuggets get outhustled, out-shot, and out-executed in Utah. The bench made the gap unrecoverable, but the starters played their part in the struggles. Matt does not believe two specific players can be on the court together. Adam has concerns about Jokic's defense. Bones gets bullied, Jamal Murray is back but not back back, and Denver faces questions after Game 1. All this and more on Locked on Nuggets.

Matt and Adam debate whether or not they can even talk about the thing they can't talk about because they don't know enough, but it's probably fine, unless it's not. Matt says it's time for Zeke Nnaji to have a rotation spot in pen, not pencil, and the Nuggets get a new TV partner. Plus, Matt breaks down why he likes the over on the Nuggets' win total.

The Nuggets lose to the Thunder, but the story of the night was the emotional returns of Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. Jamal comes out cold but catches fire in the second while MPJ... well, it doesn't matter where or how he gets the shot, it's a bucket. The starters are flat but you see the potential. Malone fumes about the defense, predictably. The bench unit was a mess. Was it Bones or the spacing, or both? Plus, guys who shined and guys who struggled, we react to everything from preseason Game No.1 for Denver on Locked on Nuggets.

Nikola Jokic dominated the way he usually does, but the bigger takeaway from the Nuggets' win over the Pelicans for their fourth straight was a new look bench in the second half that did the job and helped Denver get a solid win. Aaron Gordon plays great defense, Austin Rivers continues to throw flames, Bryn Forbes goes off, and Bones Hyland is backup point guard. All this and more as Matt Moore breaks down Pelicans-Nuggets.

Plus, why the media can't just bomb Michael Malone with questions about the problem and the complexities of covering it. Also, why what Denver really needs is an action to spam.

It was the best of halves, it was the worst halves. The Nuggets play excellent basketball to get a big lead on the Warriors and then blow it in the second half, only for Willy B Barton (and the B stands for Buckets) to come through with the gamewinner as Jokic gets the game-saving block. Denver beats the Warriors to stop a dubious streak. One player seemed like he had a good game but had a bad one. Matt gives some shocking praise. There's no such thing as a bad win right now.

The Nuggets finally faced a team more short-handed than they are and got a much-needed, relief-providing win over the Clippers 103-100. Jokic has a big game production wise, but plays lifeless for 3 quarters... then dominates. Austin Rivers starts and gives good minutes. Davon Reed has a monster game on both ends of the floor to help bolster them to a win. The bench struggles, Barton has good and bad moments.

The Nuggets dominate the Wizards by 33! And then...
The Nuggets hold on to beat Washington behind another incredible performance from Nikola Jokic, but after he's ejected (TONY BROTHERS STRIKES AGAIN), the bench almost gives it up. Jokic had his hand in the collapse, too, but ultimately, Joker is playing at a level no one's really seen before. Aaron Gordon continues his good play. Adam praises Davon Reed. Matt would like to point out the bench in the second half, and well, it was a weird game all around. Matt and Adam break it down.

Denver gets by New Orleans in overtime. The Nuggets weren't perfect and were pretty clearly exhausted, but they had Joker. An insane performance by Jokic in regulation and overtime as he carries the team. That's why you want an MVP (among other reasons.) JMyke finally has a good game, what does it mean, if anything?

The Nuggets smack the Knicks in a get-right-after-the-letdown-spot-after-the-get-right game on Saturday morning as Nikola Jokic puts on a show in MSG. One of Joker's finest performances as he obliterates a would-be playoff team. Zeke Nnaji continues to shoot the ever-loving lights out and Adam asks if his role needs to be expanded.

The Nuggets take down the Miami Heat to sweep the season series, this time in Miami. The Heat go down without much of a... ahem... fight as they missed Jimmy Butler and Tyler Herro, but for the Nuggets, JOKER BACK. Nikola Jokic comes out and destroys the Heat and any coverage they threw at him. Bones Hyland returns and gives the spark back to Denver's bench. Facu Campazzo keeps hitting threes. And Adam raves about... Jeff Green? (Plus Aaron Gordon appreciation.)

The Nuggets absolutely eviscerate the Portland Trailblazers to go 5-0 on the homestand. No Will Barton (or MPJ) (or Jamal Murray), no problem. Jokic goes galaxy brain in the first quarter, and then juggernaut the rest of the way. Denver dominates on both ends of the floor and poor Jusuf Nurkic. The schedule gets tough but Matt has reassuring words about the back half after All-Star. What Bones Hyland brings to the floor, and more.

Matt Moore recaps a THRILL-ing victory by the Denver Nuggets over the Indiana Pacers. Without Michael Porter Jr. and Nikola Jokic (and Jamal Murray), Denver finds a way to win at home behind a stellar performance from Will Barton. What does Will Barton mean to Nuggets fans and how did Wednesday add to that lore? Zeke Nnaji crashed the rotation and makes a big impact. Bones brings more electricity. Dos Verdes has success! And Aaron Gordon brings the physicality.

Nikola Jokic puts together an all-timer vs. the Heat... and then loses it with a shoulder to Markieff Morris in retaliation. Jokic will be suspended, but how long? How did it come about? A bang-bang play or a cheap shot? The whole team played great. Adam says the bench play was about a lot of things, Matt think it was about one small thing. MPJ's injury update is still vague, but concerning, though Adam has some hopeful news from a listener.

Why wasn't it enough? The bench. Again. Plus, what does MPJ need to break out, is Facu the only one to blame for the bench woes (no), and why the homestand will be crucial.

Adam calls it an "annoying game" and boy, he's not wrong in the minds of the Nuggets. Jokic has good numbers but struggles. Why are the turnovers such an issue? Does Denver need a pure point guard?

In this episode, I predict the best and worst case scenarios for Malik Beasley, Vlatko Cancar, and Nikola Jokic. Beasley is in an interesting position with the Denver Nuggets.

Where will Beasley's minutes come from? Cancar has a great skill set and should look nice next to skilled, smart players but is he more of a power forward? And can he get minutes ahead of Juancho Hernangomez, Michael Porter Jr., and Will Barton? And Nikola Jokic is coming off of an MVP=caliber season and historic playoff run. Does he have another gear?

In this episode, I share my notes from an action packed game one of the Western Conference semi-finals between the Denver Nuggets and the Portland Trail Blazers. The story of the game was the two-man play between Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic in the pick and roll. The two Nuggets cornerstones looked like Stockton and Malone, playing off of each other so nicely and just dismantling the Portland defense with the PnR. I talk about what made that action so effective, the value of delivering the ball to Jokic in the paint, Paul Millsap's timely buckets, and Denver's second unit that looks like it is ready for a resurgence.

In this episode, I share my notes on game three of the first round series between the San Antonio Spurs and the Denver Nuggets. At the center of the episode was the absolute dominate performance by Derick White, who seemed intent to not just out-duel Jamal Murray, but to humiliate him in the process. I talk about Murray's two biggest weaknesses - inability to contain dribble penetration and a slow first step on offense - and how White and the Spurs have built an entire game plan around it. I also talk about the continued slump of Will Barton, the impressive play of Malik Beasley, and why there is reason to believe that the Nuggets still have adjustments that they can make to shift this series back in their favor. The gain was a bit high on this one. Still listenable but the audio quality is a bit below the norm. Apologies! Recording on the road is always tough. Learn more about your ad choices.

Paul Millsap also struggled to get going against Utah's stout interior defense. Gary Harris must've taken offense to reports of his athletic demise as he finished three dunks in this game. Malik Beasley started to look like his old self. And for the 3rd time in as many games, Will Barton did not play in the 4th quarter.

The Nuggets blew an 8-point lead but was that by design? And is Denver being smart about their end of season strategy? On Friday, Torrey Craig closed over Will Barton.

In this episode, I share my notes from Denver's 104-103 loss to the San Antonio Spurs. The Nuggets were ice cold to open the game and then fell into a rut of turning the ball over and forcing shots, namely the team's lead guards, Will Barton and Jamal Murray. In many ways, this game laid bare just how much of an impact Murray has on the team. Bad Murray helped bury the Nuggets, down 21 points in the first half. Good Murray helped rally the Nuggets back within a point. How quickly he learns to become good Murray will determine how quickly the Nuggets can transform into a true contender.

The Denver Nuggets looked like the deepest team in the NBA, capable of putting several different combinations of players on the court and playing at a high level. The team also managed to recapture the defensive intensity that they had early on in the season. Lastly, I talked about Nikola Jokic's interview with Vic Lombardi in which he hinted that he'd like to be the Tim Duncan of the Denver Nuggets, spending his entire career in the Mile High City.

There are a lot of silver linings in the loss to Toronto including Denver's bench showing up big time in the 2nd quarter, Jokic embracing a new role, and Malone saying all of the right things. Lastly, I discuss how the Raptors have a blueprint for how an after-thought type market can keep themselves in the hunt for a championship run and even take advantage of the moment when an opportunity presents itself.

Nikola Jokic tallied his 3rd straight triple-double behind an absolutely brilliant game. Gary Harris stepped into another huge shot in the 4th quarter. Wilson Chandler did EVERYTHING for the Nuggets. And Mason Plumlee provided the perfect ending to his first game back in action in weeks.

In this episode, I make the case for each of Denver's potential starting lineups now that Mason Plumlee is healthy and back on the court. Plumlee has become one of the defensive anchors for the Nuggets but the team has found a groove in his absence on he offensive end. I make the case that his return could very well spell the perfect balance of offensive brilliance quarterbacked by Nikola Jokic and defensive clout behind Plumlee.

In this episode, I share notes on Nikola Jokic's historic triple-double performance against the Milwaukee Bucks. Jokic has been playing his best basketball of the season over the last 12 games but this was the cherry on top of an incredible run. 30 points, 15 rebounds, 15 assists, and an NBA record for fastest triple double ever. Just 14 minutes and 33 seconds. Notes include the team's confidence and the contagious passing of the up-tempo style of play.

In this episode I share my notes on Denver's scorching offensive performance at home against the Knicks. THE BALL WAS POPPIN! The Nuggets offense looked every bit as good as last year's version as Jokic was wheelin and dealin, Harris was Thrillin and Drillin, and the Nuggets had one of the best games in the half court the league has seen this season. The defense was almost as bad as the offense was good but should the joy of victory calm the worries of Malone and his coaching staff? That and more in today's show.

In this surprisingly uplifting episode I share some audio of Michael Malone addressing the media at practice today and some of the most interesting points that he brought up. He met with various members of the team 1-on-1 ahead of today's practice and said that he had some great conversations with some key guys. He talked about the pressure that Nikola Jokic is facing right now and the balance between wanting him to overcome the pressure while also realizing the importance of helping Jokic get more comfortable on the court. And most important of all, he talked about how he'd like to call fewer plays and allow more freedom in the offense. Twitter Locked On Nuggets Adam Mares Denver Stiffs

In this 10 in 10 episode, I dive deep into the stats to look at why the Nuggets have played so poorly over the last 10 games. The 10 in 10 edition of this show is recorded every 10 games as I look back at the big picture trends the team has found over that stretch. This time around, Jokic is in the worst shooting slump of his career, the Nuggets aren't getting corner 3s, and opponents are shooting lights out. Twitter Locked On Nuggets Adam Mares Denver Stiffs

In this episode, I share my notes on the tough loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves at Pepsi Center. Jokic really seemed off with his timing and decision making and Murray's defense was as bad as his offense was good. Most interesting and most important of all, Denver really struggled once the Wolves went to spread PnR in the 4th. Denver tried a few different looks defensively but it wasn't enough to get the stops they needed. Twitter Locked On Nuggets Adam Mares Denver Stiffs

In this weekend summit episode of the Locked On Nuggets podcast, I am joined by Daniel Lewis and Gordon Gross of DenverStiffs.com. The three of us share our thoughts on the recent 6-game Nuggets road trip and say whether we are encouraged or discouraged by the way it went down. We play Devil's Advocate about Murray's hot shooting, Beasley's spot in the rotation, and Denver's record by the end of December. At the 38 minute mark we move on to Star Wars related topics including our favorite Star Wars characters, which player is Denver's protagonist, which person(s)/team is Denver's antagonist, and which player is likely to go to the dark side. As always, it was a fun summit, even if the recording quality is a tiny bit worse than usual (thanks Skype). Twitter Locked On Nuggets Adam Mares Denver Stiffs Daniel Lewis Gordon Gross

In this episode, I share my notes on a beautiful team win over the Detroit Pistons. Jamal Murray is starting to heat up from behind the arc. So is Trey Lyles, who had a perfect game from the field, 7-7. Gary Harris dished out a career-high 9 assists. Mason Plumlee was a man possessed. And Will Barton! Who knew Thrill could play the facilitator role so well, all while taking just 5 shots? It was a really fun win and as a result all of my noes are positive ones.

In this episode, I share my notes on Denver's heartbreaking collapse against the Indiana Pacers. I talk about how the team built a huge first half lead behind a new rotation, some big time shot making, and some impressive point guard play. I share how the 2nd half collapse reminded me of a similar collapse a few years back, in which the 4th quarter lineup ran on fumes before going down like a ship in sight of land. Lastly, I talk about how injuries have forced this team to tread water before hitting the rest button, hopefully later this week. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In this episode, I discuss how Millsap's absence will affect the team as a whole as well as specific players on the roster. For Faried, this likely means a starting role. For Mudiay and Plumlee, this likely means more stretch lineups that suit their skill set. But for the team as a whole, it will be next to impossible to replace the defense, leadership, and skill that Millsap brought. Twitter Handles Locked On Nuggets Adam Mares Denver Stiffs
