| 0:00.0 | Oh, man. |
| 0:01.9 | We're getting everybody with these short-handed nuggets. Let's go. I love this Nugget Squad. Baby. Turn it up, everybody. Do you hear that? Do you hear that? What is everybody, welcome to the winners' love. Let's go. Go! Presented by Bet 365. How are we doing our bets tonight, Dev? We're one and three. And the worst part is we missed it by a Peyton Watson free throw. Oh, really? Yes. Oh, did he not get 20-19 to his free throw? He had the 19. A 20-point streak stopped. Oh, my goodness. Man, that one's tough. That's the one. And he got like three men's dubs. |
| 0:38.8 | This one should have packed. |
| 0:55.7 | You know, it was a good bet. Yeah, spiritually correct. It was a right one. It's not your fault. It's not your fault. We're in the Toyota Winners Lounge, driven by your front range Toyota stores. Toyota, the official vehicle of the NVR. What a win, man. Nuggets get the win. Another short-handed one, 108-104, and it was the way they did it. |
| 1:30.1 | It was who was contributing. So many great storylines. Harrison wins here. Every win without Nicole Yokech feels like just this took everything. This took all we had. And that's what it happened, man. Yeah. I mean, every Nugget contributed to this one, which was awesome. Really? It's true. true super star devs in the building i cannot believe how fun it is to watch these nuggets games right now bro that's a great team every single one of them are bank no this one this one was one of them though it was fun this was a great one i mean i love this because it is the truth like even in the pregame show we're kind of like i don't don't know. You know, all these got Murray's out, late scratch, all the stuff. |
| 1:44.8 | But it's like, yeah, these guys still put it on a show, man. The Nuggets have a lot of very, not just good, but interesting storylines and players. Let's go to the fast breakdown. I'll make it quick. Not that many notes. seven to start to the game for the Nuggets, but then the bucks went on an 11-0 run. |
| 1:45.4 | Remember that? |
| 1:44.7 | It felt like the wheels were coming off very, very early in this game. They did have a great rally after the slow start and an 11-0 run that was led by Peyton Watson. The Nuggets got to a lineup at the end of the first and end of the third quarter that we'll talk about it because it was a great lineup and it made runs in both games. second quarter Tim Hardaway Jr. He was up to 10 points very quickly. He was gunning tonight. |
| 2:04.7 | He had himself a nice night. The refs in this game were allowing a lot of contact. And it wasn't until like the second quarter when I think everybody settled in and was like, this was a, I haven't seen a game called like this in a long time, both ways. Well, the Nuggets |
| 2:18.1 | haven't had Mark Davis ref a game in a while either. I got to put some respect on Mark Davis's name. Do we like Mark Davis? I think he allows, here's the thing, man, I don't want Mark Davis in a game that has Alex Caruso versus Yogi. That's true. If Yokes out there against the little guys. He just will not call a foul. |
| 2:34.2 | Yep. He wasn't in this game, so |
| 2:35.7 | we'll allow it to happen. There was a nice, the sequel, That's true. If Yokes out there against the little guys, he just will not call a foul. |
| 2:34.3 | Yep. |
| 2:52.4 | He wasn't in this game, so we'll allow it to happen. There was a nice, the sequence of the game, though, was that second quarter, Jalen Pickett had his own little 8-0 run. Zika, Najee had a block on Janus. There were all these highlight plays in a little, like, I think it was 15-0 run or something like that. Nuggets, incredible run, opened up a 15-point lead. |
| 2:54.4 | 6252 Nuggets at the half. |
| 2:54.4 | Third quarter, plays in a little like, I think it was 15-0 run or something like that. Nuggets, incredible run, opened up a 15-point lead, 62-52 Nuggets at the half. |
| 2:57.1 | Third quarter, Porter was in for Turner. |
| 2:58.9 | This was an adjustment Doc Rivers made. |
| 3:01.9 | They were super big versus Denver super small. |
| 3:05.9 | They adjusted, and they opened on a 13-1 run for Milwaukee. |
| 3:29.1 | Good adjustment, Doc Rivers, although there's probably no adjustment for just not playing Miles Turner. For a second, it felt like the exact same script as the Hawks game. And then let's play a gutsy first half and then immediately in the third quarter, the wheels start to fall off. And then it's a 28 point loss and you're like, well, whatever. Here's the lineup, though. It's Jalem Pickett, Bruce Brown, Tim Hardaway, Peyton Watson, and Zeke Najee. |
| 3:32.5 | That squad, man, went on another huge run. |
