he's adam merris did i pronounce that right by the way not even close it's all right adam

you are locked on nuggets your daily denver nuggets podcast part of the locked on podcast network

your team every day it's locked on nuggets locked on on warriors. Adam, first thing's first, man.

How are the nuggets? How is the Nuggets fan base feeling about this series? Because

Dubnation is brimming with confidence right now. Are they delusional? How are the Nuggets fans

feeling? This has been the weirdest season, Cyrus. So the Nuggets have, you know, all year it's been just hold things together long enough for Jamal Murray to get back and Michael Porter as well. And here we are at the playoffs. I think everybody expected that to happen around the All Star Break or a little bit after, you know, or things went really bad mid-March. You know, here we are mid-April and

they're still not back. So I think Nuggets fans have this sort of deflated sense in that the season

wasn't quite what they expected it to be with more hope and like, okay, reinforcements are on the way.

And then heading into the series, you know, it's a mixed bag. Some people look at it and say, hey, the Warriors are also beat up and haven't played together.

And maybe they're off to a slow start.

Dendrick can steal here or there.

But I don't think anybody, I wouldn't, I wouldn't describe the fan base as brimming with confidence, though.

That's not a phrase I would use.

That's fair.

Well, what's the story with Jamal Murray, man? lot of news leak out. I think your team president kind of was kind of in a bold manner,

just kind of said he could play. What's the reality of the situation here? And like,

do you, even if you play, do you expect him to contribute a significant minutes?

I don't expect them to play. I think there's always a chance. And it depends on how the

series goes. I would lean towards, and

there's no, I don't have any intel on this. It's just my sort of feeling on is if Denver got

off to an early lead in the series, even maybe an unlikely one, later on in the series, he might

be emboldened to come back. If Denver gets behind, then probably, he probably is less likely.
