What is up, everybody, and welcome into the Locked On Nuggets podcast, part of the Locked On Podcast Network.

I'm your host Adam Modis today, and actually doing something new today. I'm kind of excited about it. I'm your host Adam Modis today and actually doing something new today.

I'm kind of excited about it. I'm going to take over segments one and two and give you my perspective,

a little bit of notebook notes. I went back and rewatch today's game painful as it was to rewatch.

And it was painful. There were some fun parts to be honest, but it was painful to have to rewatch that collapse. So I'm going to share my notes in segments one and two and sort of a mini notebook style.

And then Matt Moore is going to solo.

He's going to send me the audio for segment three, which you'll get his perspective.

you know, he's missed four games now. The Nuggets go three in one of that stretch, which I think is

very good. But the Nuggets playing tomorrow, I have a suspicion that Jamal Murray will be back tomorrow. It's rare that you would bring a player back on

the front end of a back to back, just because if they're hobbled, you don't want to,

back to backs are really taxing on teams and on players. So you probably wouldn't do that. So I thought,

okay, Nuggets, maybe their luck's running a little dry, as good as they've been over the stretch,
