The Denver Nuggets gutted out an ugly win vs. the Golden State Warriors. Nikola Jokic had a masterful second half and Reggie Jackson stepped up BIG in Jamal Murray’s absence.

Adam Mares, Brendan Vogt, and Duvalier Johnson come to you LIVE from the DNVR Bar to break down everything you need to know in this edition of the DNVR Nuggets Podcast!

Darko was an amazing guest!
jokic had 35 and still people saying shit2
Now 3 days of rest for the Nuggets and then I feel sorry for the Rockets. Nine games in condensed schedule almost caught up wit the Nuggets.
Also, freakin' Reggie, dude is reborn. Man got a second basketball life here in Denver.
Man y’all are too dramatic over a single game that they actually won. We’re 9 games in, we all know the bench has a lot to learn
Darko D Serbian knows his basketball!!! BRAO!!!
ugly?! I like ugly … Joker 🃏 15
If you want a good laugh, take a look at Pickett's per 36 numbers.
Reggie got a second chance and he took it serious..no one needs to do anything special, just ply the right way, don’t even think about flashiness or beautiful games…a Win is A WIN! 8-1 / 9 games -7 in 11 days, only the denver nuggets in the whole league is playing this amount of games in such a short time. But like Moach said no excuses just business!
Win is a win, regardless. Murray's still out and they were playing against a "championship-caliber" team. The team did their work, that's what matters. I've seen highlight videos with GSW fans being toxic as usual and just can't accept their beloved team losing 😂
Collin Gisippee has no business getting minutes on the court for a team trying to repeat. The Nuggets really need to add to their bench. For the long haul.
I just rewatched the first 5 minutes of the first playoff game against the T-wolves and I have to say, even though the Nuggets are 8-1 they arent playing as good as they did in the playoffs. The shotmaking from everybody, the playmaking (no look skip passes) and the confidence with which they were going to the rim.
Whatever the reason… Nuggets can play a lot better.
Collin just isn't good guys. We have to accept the fact. Collin is not a NBA level player. That's note being a hater or personal. He just isn't at the level we are playing. He got way too many flaws in his games on both side of the bench.
He truly is a 2-way level guy. If I'm Malone i would be trying up Picket the upcoming 2 or 3 games. I think he's better than Collin. I think he does at lot of things better than Collin. Picket is strong enough to take switches. Great boxing out and rebounding. Better defender. He can does everything Collin does, but with defense and rebounding
After the Memphis games, I was really worried about Reggie, I thought sure he hit his shots but he really disrupts any kinds of rhythm the bench gets into… plus I really hate to watch that kind of basketball, but since then he played A+ in terms of what you want him to try to do, in all the games…biggest surprise of the season so far
I think we gotta get Reggie back leading the bench. He’s not perfect but he does get a little scoring, ball handling AND LENGTH ON DEFENSE. Reggie, Braun, Watson, MPJ, Nnaji. Then mix in Strawther here and there. Reggie isn’t perfect, but the bench clearly functioned with him.
Let’s see how rest of season plays out, but signing Reggie was great move. All the pundits questioned it and were unimpressed.
Also, Malone HAS TO play Nnaji 10 minutes a game. This is ridiculous. He’s played well.
Hold on guys, with the comment on Braun taking the weird 3pt. You guys said a few games ago that he doesn’t look confident w the 3 ball and he needs to shoot it with some more confidence. I think he recognized that’s what the team needed cause It would’ve given a ton of energy if that hit. Not saying it was a great choice but in the moment I was okay with him taking it and I still am
Lets be clear, this is the Golden Age of Nuggets Basketball. We may never reach these levels again so lets enjoy the wins, ugly or not. Lets enjoy that a "bad" Jokic game is 35/13/5. Lets enjoy that the bench is inconsistent, instead of just bad. That the defense is not 29th in the NBA. The Nuggets are awesome, Jokic is awesome, and lets enjoy that this is what the top of the mountain feels like, even when it is not a 30 pt win every night.
You guys gotta have Avs go to studio A. We need more than an hour to break everything down
With Murray out, Reggie needs to go out and come back in the 2nd to stagger. Also Warriors are still champions, offensively and defensively. Add in rough schedule
Loved the show!!
