Summary

Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by Matt Moore (@Locked On Nuggets) to discuss the MVP battle between Nikola Jokic and Jayson Tatum with the Nuggets and Celtics facing off in Denver, including a hilarious 35+ minute game delay to start the New Year. What was the ridiculousness of the "rim straightening" game delay like? How should games like this, between two MVP candidates, impact voting later on? Is Jokic the MVP right now? How impactful have KCP and Bruce Brown been for Denver? What has Michael Porter Jr. looked like since returning from injury? Then, Nick Angstadt (@Locked On Mavericks) jumps in to talk about the insane play of Luka Doncic over this recent Mavs 6-game winning streak, how they're able to still win despite missing key defensive contributors and the possibility of a Christian Wood extension. How do you even begin to describe the level that Luka is playing? Why are the Mavs struggling against bad teams? Is a Wood extension the right move? When will Dallas get back some of its key defensive contributors? Lastly, Jackson (@Locked On Rockets) discusses Houston Rockets veteran guard Eric Gordon's "no improvement" postgame comments after an ugly New Year's Eve loss at home to a depleted New York Knicks team and what it likely means for his future in Houston. What was the catalyst for the comment? Was this a mic drop, "trade me" moment or a form of encouragement for the young guys? Why hasn't Gordon been traded yet? What trade destinations make the most sense? #Nuggets #Mavericks #Rockets Subscribe to the Locked On NBA YouTube Channel: Locked On NBA Follow/Subscribe/Listen Anywhere: linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! | Offers: lockedonpodcasts.com/offers Built Bar – Built Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
