New Orleans Pelicans vs Denver Nuggets Highlights | January 12, 2024 | OkayRickk Reacts
He’s just one of those games I know Denver’s going to show up I know my nuggets are going to show up hey got love for you New Orleans but I just know these are one of those games I know Denver is just going to show up and play
Ball I seen I seen I seen uh the Joker face man it it didn’t look nice so I just know Denver coming to play Baby year out of Alabama head coach Willie Green told us before the game he’s become much more vocal this year here as Brandon Ingram one of the best mid-range
Scorers Balon chunis can make that but too strong there on the season he is shooting 38% yic down part most in NBA history a turnover by the Pelicans here’s Murray gets past McCullum and finishes through in their losses it’s a large part because of of
Murray and and so he really keys on him he got a good game they play a lot better Williamson gets deep into the paint obviously very difficult to a stop when he gets downhill that’s really the case with this entire New Orleans team Caldwell Pope up top rattles down the
Three injury that cost him all of the 2022 season sometimes this is where he’s at his best going downhill getting the basket he has six it he still thinks he’s a couple weeks away but this is a different guy tonight when he was coming out and you guys were evaluating
Obviously you weren’t in a position the porter in the loss to Utah again Williamson on the attack kicks it to the corner here’s Jones for three it’s good her Jones he’s shootting he he he he doesn’t need to oh boy couple of uh open lanes which he need get out the way
Just McCullum gets some air space fires and hits a three boy he’s got a a fast pace so far a lot of quick shots going up and down teams uh getting easy layups too his role has changed but his production has not and here we go get to
See a chance at this New Orleans Pelicans depth I I I think it’s the deepest team in the leag starter but then they got Trey Murphy coming in here and and they can’t even get Jordan Hawkins in the game he was a great draft pick here’s joic for three one on Three
Waiting for some help gives it up to Gordon for another shot at The Rim but he blew it and there’s joic to clean it up inside yeah that they don’t count that stuff do wasn’t 07 though the year they beat the Mavs in the first round
When they were an eight right U Brewing players and you didn’t know if he could shoot or not but if he you figured if he could shoot he could defend his position and he’s making his shots I hope he didn’t look too hard at UCLA play night
For uh the Bruins not a good one closing in on a minute to go here in the first Denver by four another and one assist they double him gives it up to Brown is open and hits a three last year having Zion for half the season now he
Finally gets him healthy and let’s see what the Pelicans do they look like a dangerous team but they’re struggling tonight Al from last year trying to find his Niche on this very deep Pelican team Murphy on the spot up and the three goes down Orleans has won two straight games six of its
Last seven with the lone loss against the Clippers who may be playing better than anybody right now in the west mullum nice pass by mullum or excuse me by Mur that’s how you become a contender that’s you know they’re they’re top 10 in offense they’re 10th and defense
They’re seventh that’s what you got to be but right now he’s got seven points here in the quarter and the lead is 14 good defense Watson getting the steel and the slam up too strong here’s Porter gets a good look and throws it defensively is a big part
Of why this Denver team won it and why they’re so good right now Denver 10th overall in defensive rating as sometimes it’s as a passer yeah or just with his ball handling like I said before he just gets you a great possession on every possession I mean nine per game which is
Good for third in the NBA lead is 19 Alvarado hits a three theones who is a second round pick out of Alabama back in 2021 yic spinning and finishing and Val in the NFL they have a guy upstairs that’s in charge of the challenge flag for the coaches you should that’s not
Super relevant to an NBA game but y with an incredible so fun so unselfish Zion attacks he’s missed his last five after a hot start and Y it’s blocked it he saved his best for last here in the first half 3 seconds to go McCullum at the buzzer good CJ with
All the attention and I do I think Malone’s right and Katie’s right I wish people did know him better I wish you let him know let us know a little better Porter drills a three and Denver’s Denver’s done that now the question is the bench like we talked about it’s the
Bench and obviously the challenge of trying to repeat as her Jones really saw that on display in in the Conference Finals and the NBA finals last year yeah as you get deeper and deeper into the playoffs possession almost every single time in the half court meanwhile New
Orleans on a 102 run here’s joic in the middle of the lane I mean it’s 7965 Denver Murray a little shaken up after the contact with Jones Jumper by yic is good three-pointer for Denver a lead back to 17 you’re right Shay Gil just is is here we go Zion taking off
You know just just just joic trying to spin Baseline and Valen chunes then goes right at him they don’t blow the whistle joic clearing space points per game that’s unusual for him to have that kind of a stretch they’ve been winning though but tonight oh they count that wow yep count the
Basket and one for Aaron go yeah look offensively they’re better but defensively they just haven’t figured out what they’ve been so good at for so long it’s not just holiday going back to your comment on joic and what he does for you in the playoffs who’s going to
Be that guy for the Pelicans in a playoff series joic with the offensive rebound Marshall gets the offensive rebound he’s been quiet he averages eight points per game he’s only taken one shot and that was just a couple of minutes ago here he gets to the rim and
Flushes it taking nine threes all year and made three I remember doing his first game and he didn’t do anything in the first half and in the second half he comes out and he hits four straight guys I I think Murray under normal circumstances might be an All-Star but it’s hard this year
With the number of games missed as Zion scores in his foul field I don’t I don’t know what to think of that I mean I it’s just uh it’s Nicole yic you know n drills a three pick certain matchups for him and this is one of him and he’s given him some good
Minutes Zion hangs count it and one as of late he’s been the second hardest worker in terms of his analytical metric output lately that’s exactly what they need from him and they need more it was announced this week you’re involved in the search committee for the the new
General manager and and head coach of the Washington commanders as uh planning practice camaraderie chemistry execution you got to be used to playing with the guys to get the results that you once he said field has Great Waves do they Wes people love waves Zion with the slam Williamson up
To Denver is plus 11 on the glass by the way Zion is 14 points in the quarter 26 for the game joic drills it you should have told me I mean you’re I thought You’ be on that dude I just listen to the crowd get all excited could be a serious Contender too
Well the Denver Nuggets look like more than a contender tonight they look like another
