Welcome to Locked On, yeah, Mike. This is Locked On Nuggets. I'm your host, Matt Moore.

You can follow me on Twitter at HB basketball, part of the Lockdown Network. Thanks for joining us. Thanks for making this part of your day. I am joined by

an exuberant, satisfied, and energized by this Nuggets win over the Mavericks. Adam,

Mariz from DMVR. Adam, how are you? I'm doing good, man. That was fun. And I was worried it wasn't, there was a point during that third quarter where I thought it

wasn't going to be fun.

But that was a, we were waiting for that game to happen.

I feel like this was, this was a game that all season we've been waiting for.

Michael Borr Jr. scores 30 points, which I am told is good.

That's the official determination is that that is good.

He scored 30 points in 27 minutes and 37 seconds, 6 of 10 from 3 point range to go with

eight boards, two steals and two fouls.

He was a plus. The steals were big. He was just the,

his second half defense was was wild, what loudly touted by several people, which is good

because I went back and looked at the first half, but we want to talk about that. So the biggest thing I think off the top is just like,

how important is it for MPJ to have this game?

And what does it mean going forward?

Well, what it means going forward, I don't know.

And I'm sure we'll get more into that in the third segment.

But I think if we just stay in the moment for it,

it's kind of a relief that it did happen and that it happened.

You know, in a moment that if it didn't happen, Denver would not have won this game.
