Inside the NBA | Nikola Jokic records his 23rd triple-double of the year as Nuggets crush Cavaliers

This a great touch pass right there for a three for braon in the corner nuggets in the first half on a 20 to7 run then they start the second half on a 10-2 run and you see that score escalating quickly the ball movement Aaron Gordon from outside and

Hold on AG we know what you could do you should have had that 50 in the slam dun contest to win you one here he is in the game showing us he should have got one of those but soon as the Joker got the ball The Joker was already thinking live

Before thinking of shooting it Nicole yic 18 rebounds 26 points 16 assists oh no he didn’t absolute around his back in traffic can we clip that upstairs again I I it didn’t seem like that we were watching that he we’re going to see more around his back inic in a second but

First let’s hear from cavius called well kcp passing is it the shooting no I just want to make my teammates feel like every time they touch the ball they can be open nice little floater there because the defense is thinking about it but don’t assume my teammates going to

Make the play and just tip it in these triple these triple double numbers right here Chris are are crazy Luca has the ball in his hands he’s the point guard if you will meaning and then you got two point centers are Point centers and they play better when the ball’s in their

Hand dar understands when sabon has the ball I can move and cut and still get my shot every player that’s ever played with the joker now understands when the ball’s in his hands either set a screen for someone or cut to the basket he’s going to make a good decision yeah

Nugget shot 57% from the field 63% from long range they hit 21 threes and the crazy part about that we showed you Nicole yic hitting one he only took two three-pointers so really he was playing a setup man making sure everyone else got involved he had 16 of their 36 team

Assists thank you for bringing that in there because when you’re watching these highlights of those 213s made I think 11 of them were uncontested like that corner three Eric Gordon just made so we know the percentages stay high when you’re uncontested versus when the hands

In your face as they like to say so that’s why when a joker has the ball so much fun because they create the organized chaos because if you don’t communicate the right way wide open shots Darius Garland donov Mitchell combined for 18 points Donovan Mitchell three for 12 from the field again we

Know what his ceiling is now we’re looking back to the all-star break to now one game in which he scored 20 or more cause for concern very much concern I I I love Donovan love Spider-Man the death love his spider senses but he has seven games now right correct me if I’m

Wrong to get that Rhythm the continuity the chemistry that you need with your teammates to get back to playing lights out basketball Allstar type basketball before he got hurt yeah in January this was the hottest team in the NBA December and January Allstar break comes they haven’t been the same since what’s the

Remedy to fix what’s happened with the Cavs we say for so many teams for our viewers health is wealth and it’s hard to miss a role player then plug him back into the play but when this your star player that needs to set the table he

Has to be 100% especially if c fan want to think you’re going to go deep into the East we all agree that the Celtics they said they’re pretty the Bucks are starting to make their way shoot uh Jaylen Brunson had the 61 the other night to give the Nicks fans excitement

Donovan Mitchell has to be the best version he can be for these last seven games going into the playoffs all right the second game we have on Center Court tonight the Golden State Warriors versus wimy watch Victor wiim minyama and the San Antonio Spurs Warriors have won three consecutive games Spurs have worn

Uh three consecutive games so let’s start with the Spurs right because the Warriors have had es and flows this season for the Spurs they have 18 total wins on total win right so Victor wiama has been incredible for the most part the season why is it leading to wins now

Though just the total team is not ready yet I mean as much as we love wimy and he’s great and he’s you know checking all the boxes of being a future great star in our league but at the end at the end of the day he needs some help right

Now deels had some moments you know different guys have stepped up Jones has plays well but at the end of the day the western conference is so steep it’s hard for one guy to come in and change the whole complexion of where you’re trying to go in the Western Conference but to

Your point Chris we haven’t seen a team with only 18 wins as must SE TV late in the season so I take my hat off to pop who changed his color with normally would rest someone like this and pop he’s like no wmy wants to play so I’m

Gonna let him play yeah coming off of that 40 Point 20 rebound game against the New York Knicks uh Victor wiama always someone you want to check in whether it’s League pack or right here on NBA TV going to tip off uh at 7:00 tonight I mean just look at the kind of

Plays that he makes right the numbers are there but they don’t tell the full story rookie Le the NBA and blocks so for the people who have been following withy online because the way internet giv you a chance to follow kids overseas big shout out to his trainer Tim Martin

Who I’ve been on for a few years that’s why I’m not as surprised on what I’m seeing cuz you go back and watch the videos two or three years ago he’s working on ball handling drills he’s doing all the stuff we’re seeing now so

Now when he does it in the game how many times we seen a s foot guy go around his back throw the ball off the backboard go around his back throw the ball to the corner then Al you catch it and lean into the rim because it’s Nerf hoop but

That’s something he’s been doing Chris so it doesn’t look awkward why he’s doing it so that’s why I like it’s musty TV it’s late in the season with only 18 wins you say seven-footer I say seven and a half excuse me thank for correcting is a big difference it it’s

Hard to explain to people when you see him you go no there’s a seven-footer he makes a seven-footer look like they’re 66 compared to a seven-footer Chris hey wmy that that’s how the interview is you do a walk-off interview with him you’re doing this right and and understanding

That wow this guy’s legitly just look at this walking in that come on man but he understands it I don’t know he is but somebody’s dressing him nice boy that’s a lot of material that’s a lot of material got the MJ walk on see if he

Can get a jacket like this see if he can get a for Easter so flipping to the Golden State Warriors right looking at let’s start with Andrew Wiggins because 20 points in back-to-back games he is someone that when they won a championship it was like did you see

Andrew Wiggins guard Jason Tatum did you see how well he played he really filled into that Andre Iguodala role as someone that’s helping him to win a championship is he getting back to that from what you’ve seen over the last 11 games or so flashes but we know the talent’s there

He’s always had that somewhat aloof personality if you will but the talent is non deniable to your question I hope he can get back to that basketball he was playing when they won their last championship cuz if they do and you’re a Warriors fan you’re a little more like

Okay because kaminga is playing better Steph’s going to be Steph Clay’s a little banged up and draymond’s going to be Draymond but if Wiggins is playing light out basketball along with Trace Jackson young Fells playing solid down low I know Looney’s not been in the mix that much

Well here’s the deal Klay Thompson questionable um but looks like he is available Jonathan kaminga will miss his third straight game and here’s someone that had a great streak of 20 or more points in a row has really been coming of age that seems to be a cause for

Concern if you’re the Golden State Warriors and try to get him back on the floor for the playoff push yeah FIS Patell to the NS the way he jumps the other night that followup dunk on the Baseline there certain plays that just kind of stick in your head when you

Watch highlights here with us but if he’s not once again seven eight games left you want that live body as healthy as possible because he’s been playing really good basketball since the All-Star break you know when you’re watching a a football game and someone gets an interception and the guy’s

Trailing him or wide receivers going you’re like is he going to catch him or not that feels like the Houston Rockets right now in the standings with the Golden State Warriors they’ve won 11 in a row props to the Rockets Oka and Company with the best record in the NBA

In March and here you are this is a critical game like the last three games have been critical for the Golden State Warriors it just feels like okay we’re going to have a play this is what you hope for at 10 11 they have the easiest record of the of the remaining five

Right think the Rockers have the eest record of like the the Kings Lakers and Warriors well here’s the Warriors remaining schedule it’s not them because they got the Pelicans they got the Mavericks twice they got to face wimy uh this is not an easy schedule and then

The head to head with the Houston Rockets you just the Spurs may have the worst record of everybody up there but the Warriors there’s no night off think about it the Mavericks you the way Luke and Kyrie playing they’re bigs with the way they catch the Alive come on the

Rockets KN on your back door so you think zman has been rolling since bi has been out hasn’t he so you think Rock get in there I apologize I saw the Blazers my bad the Blazers the Blazers I I oh that’s your night off that’s your night

Off the the the Spurs because of Wim that’s not no night off you get your blood Ki but I’m trying the blaz had beat the blaz hadn’t beaten nobody in a while are the Rockets our Slayer Lane Tower is attack an enemy has deated your team has destroyed a tower Retreat
