They understand just in terms of that that individual match up even though they won’t guard each other a lot still a lot of State 14th matchup they’ve already had 13 head-to-heads between these two MVPs in the turnover and Yannis wants the push and Galloping right past yic and he’s got the first

Four points what a difficult finish little backhanded clip looked like he got a little bit of a bump from jic as he extended fallen out of bounds J is able to knock it down isolated look here for Gordon going against Chris Middleton and oer to start

Out with here for the Denver Nuggets you can see they think that’s an advantage Gordon or Gordon thinks that’s an advantage Gordon going against Chris Middleton nice job Chris Middleton holding him off and Chris will fire and hit his first shot so a really good start here for the Milwaukee pux up a

Perfect three for three out of the gates well that’s that Focus you and I were talking about a little earlier today coming out with this whole the whole the newness of this whole setting you want to come come out and and and impress the new staff of the Milwaukee

Bugs small hops yeah and you know doc was one who said I’m sick of calling Nia yic a really good big man passer right like he’s just a good passer in this league he was threatening a triple double with his passing uh-oh uh-oh is right if you’re done for nugget Chris

Middleton starts out a perfect two for two love to see cash being aggressive and being effective knocking down those early jumpers just in terms of his confidence muray working off the yic screen and the r screen and boy if you can find him good luck on that

Possession he is a snake Master gets you on his back and tries to keep you there now his kicks it out to Malle be high arcing shot boy he’s good at that it gets it to drop he practices those time and time again the High aring shot off

The glass well you know he’s a 47% three-point shooter teams are chasing him off that three-point line more and more so he’s got to continue to Be an Effective finisher inside off the dribble you stand at 6’4 you got some big man pursuing you got to learn to shoot it up and over

Him Gordon trying the foul huge acquisition in terms of their their Championship aspirations and making that a reality Aaron Gordon real rugged Defender can give you just enough to keep you honest at the offensive end Dame blows past Porter junor can’t get the L his first shot here tonight Here Comes

Gordon and gets his own Miss for the [Applause] putback Maron Gordon’s just a really good complimentary guy he understands that if if if if the two scores are going off he can kind of lay in the cut if he’s needed he’ll he’ll be aggressive offensively Brook the sign the challenge

Right at yit and a good strong take he started that from outside the three-point line like to see more and more of that in this game make y a Defender making have to move his feet possibly get him into some early foul trouble Jamal Murray gives it up last

Second n here to shoot yic on the initial contact with jannis Chris midleton looking for it Brook Lopez in and out Brook Lopez a guy that’s hit 76 three-pointers here this year addition to 100 blocks this season as well he’s got 128 blocks this season double team coming it’ll stay

Here with 12 seconds left on the shot clock but that was great anticipation Chris Middleton held his ground didn’t let jic kind of beat him middle then watch Chris as he picks it up back up off because he knows that back behind the back pass is com and able to get a

Hand on the basketball almost to steal but but definitely you know averted a layup attempt by Michael Porter Jr inside just off the leg of Chris which gives The Possession back to Denver 8 seconds here to shoot Murray takes the hand off has ation move right to the

Rack Milwaukee got a piece Here Comes jannis yeah jannis got the block and feeds Malik beasely from the corner normally just money from that spot Damen Lillard from above the break he throws it his first points tonight and Denver forced to call the time for the Denver Nugget starters and and plus

11 for every single starter here for the Milwaukee Bucks spin move to the B Baseline Michael Porter Jr with the rebound Porter jun’s only taking the one shot maybe looking for it here Jin took the first shot of the game he’s 0 for two from the field left open

A little bit off balance never had his like center of gravity on that attempt Murray takes the Baseline and gets the reverse to go he’s tough tough on that Baseline nice job by Murray using that left hand and just a terrific get down low blow by against y

Wraparound pass to Brook Lopez who sinks his three-pointer the 77th of the season for Brook Lopez make yic have to play some defense take him away from the defensive backboard in terms of rebounding and guy with the Deep shooting ability of like Lopez can be just

That they gave him the block a few possessions ago so now 129 blocks at 77 3-point makes and yic brings up his first three-pointer again coming into this game for the month of January was up around around 55% the three-point line almost 80% in the restricted area how is that for

Efficiency and versatility oh how about that for a spin move though Giannis with his length gets another two and this is what uh doc rers wants to really have Giannis focus on attacking from the elbows they spoke about that a lot during Sho around just how Unstoppable he is in those kinds of

Situations that’s the uh another more evidence of the evolution of the basketball game over the years bigs being able to not only protect the interior but stretch the defense by being able to knock down long deep jumpers pass deflected Chris still keeps it off balance drills the chumper yeah Chris

Looks good you know set out that second night of the back toback against New Orleans had a chance to rest the legs a bit he’s coming out looking fresh Looking ready look looking Prime to go he’s averaging about 33 minutes in the last four games coming into

Tonight jannis and yic jannis trying to poke it away it’ll be 7 Seconds interior defensive uh defensive responsibilities against joic kick him out of there joic air call on the three-point attempt reie Jackson who’s checked in we’re looking for minor changes right some tweets under Doc Rivers Damen Lillard sitting

Out a little bit here in the first quarter we’ve known him to try to play the the full 12 minutes in the first but he just got subed out I think he and Doc discussed that earlier today also just just that approach dam was talking trying to find

A r a rhythm established Rhythm altitude issues here in Denver probably a major reason because of that is there low oxy oxygen do they like to advertise that or something up here mile high city and it’s just as much mental as it is physical eight away for Chris he is red

Hot a perfect four for four he’s already got 10 points love to see cash money again come out and just put this team offensively on his back and you got willing passes his teammates quter Jor too strong got the Nuggets rushing shots taking shots a little bit out of their

Rhythm Aaron Gordon has struggled from three-point territory here this year up 29% for him this season that’s what happens when you’re playing against a stout defense Chris’s first Miss and it wasn’t probably much four or five now from the field the first time you’re open you

Look to get it up because the defense is doing a really good job of contesting everything close to the basket contav is called well poke with his first shot so three long three going to make us a stronger team it’s only going to make us a tighter group and it’s only going

To just make us better for the long run you know you never know what’s going to come up and I think these moments you know is only going to make us stronger I had a really great conversation with campaign today after shoot around and he told me that his

Word of the year is light but he spelled it l i t as in even when times get tough you got to keep it light it’s important to keep it light have a positive attitude and just have fun with what you’re doing and it’s obvious out there

As we see these guys competing they’re having a lot of fun while doing it Lisa they’re having a lot of fun
