We just witnessed a classic that did not go the Nuggets way. The Denver Nuggets came out and played their best basketball of the series in the first half but Minnesota had their best punch still to give. The Timberwolves came out of hell in the 3rd and had a 5 point lead with 5 minutes to go. The Nuggets couldn't close in the clutch where they have played their best all season and the season ends on a heartbreaker. Adam Mares, Harrison Wind, Duvalier Johnson, and D-Line Co. come to you LIVE from the DNVR Bar to break down everything you need to know in this edition of the DNVR Nuggets Podcast!

@weights250 12 дней назад

Making shots is not always the answer. If you have a bad defense, then yes, your offense better be perfect, and you better make shots. Minnesota wins with defense. The other night in Minnesota, game 6, at the half, Denver was 4 for 21 and Minnesota was 5 for 21 from three. Both teams were shooting very poorly. One team was playing high-level defense. Wolves were up 19pts although shooting the exact same as Denver. It's going to be hard to be a good defense when the 7ft 300lb center doesn't protect the rim at all. This forces Denvers offense to have to be perfect and 'make shots'.

@tzeege 12 дней назад

@@weights250 So you're telling me that a guy who's top 5 in total steals, defensive rebounds and deflections in these playoffs, needs to be top 5 in blocks too? What you're describing is the best player in the NBA that never existed, considering that Jokic is also top 3 in total points (2nd), rebounds (1st) and assists (3rd). Minnesota's defense is built to stop Denver's offense, not the other way around; with 4xDPOY big man leading the charge. Expecting Denver to have that level of defense is just disingenuous. Edit: T-Wolves averaged 103 points per game vs the Nuggets, I wouldn't call that defense "bad." The Suns are a bad defensive team, with Wolves scoring 118 ppg...

We have blown big leads like this way too often over the last few seasons . Spurs second last game of the season is the most recent one . Malone is super slow to change things up once it starts to get out of hand . Waits way too long . Reactive instead of being pro active .

@nathanmcclarren4432 13 дней назад

Also... Malone tends to over play our starters when we are up big. We could be winning a game by 20 and with 4 minutes left to play and the starters are still out there.

@cobrachannel100 13 дней назад

Not sure it is on Malone. Murray was bad all series long. Too much dribbling and burning the clock, not to mention turnovers, careless passes, etc. Him and Joker sort of failed to get good shots for MPJ and KCP yesterday. Murray dribble, dribble, dribble, then shoot a contested mid. Or two man game with Joker where none of them got good looks cause Minn knows how to defend their 2 man game.

And then, all of the sudden, Nuggs relaxed and started taking unnecessary 3s and other dumb shots, turnovers that lead to quick and easy buckets for Minn. Just cant do it. That gave them life and confidence. Not to mention, Denver then also resulted into playing worse D. Fouling unnecessary and other blown assignments on D. Thus, their bad O then lead to poor D. And then, in the end, they had no killer instinct. Nobody could stop the bleeding. That is concerning and disappointing. Cant collapse like that at home and having a 3 time MVP and Murray. IMHO, Murray and Jokic both failed to involve KCP, AG, MPJ in this game. Not to mention they couldnt step up and stop the bleeding when the lead started to melt. Pathetic.

As a Nuggets fan congratulations to Wolves. Jokič and Murray looked gassed. That is a FACT, not an excuse. Simply Wolves others beat us. Simply Nuggets lost their version of Naz Reid and Alexander Walker in Bruce Brown and Jeff green. Outside of Jokic and Murray nuggets dont hsve anyone that can beat defense with a dribble. Watson and Braun and limited offensively. Starting 5 played heavy minutes. Jokič played 47 minutes. He didnt rebound him and Gordon. They need back up big and scorer off the bench or combo guard. Minesota was better and deeper team. And they showed thst tonight when Edvards didnt have his best game. Its hard to repeat. Spurs were dynasty and never won back to bsck. Minesota is for me now the favourite. And they will also be better. Nuggets need to retool their bench to rest a starting 5 in very important games. Looking forward to mext season.

MPJ is not the problem. Those "fans" are crazy to put the blame on him. They had 3-2 advantage him averaging 4 pts. They failed with killer instinct in this game 7. They had it in the bag but decided to shoot dumb 3s and make stupid passes that lead to turnovers and easy buckets for Minn. MPJ played well on D and rebounding. Made some shots too. If anything, AG wasnt involved and KCP played rather poorly. Off the bench, Holiday should have perhaps be given more looks. I blame mostly Joker and Murray for trying that two man game too much which Minn has figured out. Instead, they should have tried generating more open looks for MPJ, KCP, etc. IMHO.

The main fault in the Nuggets’ lack of depth was actually some poor summers during the Connelly era - specifically in 2017 when they traded the draft rights to D. Mitchell for Lyles and Lydon, drafting Nnaji and Hyland in 20 and 21, and doing a pretty bad job of identifying and signing the really good undrafted free agents (Reid, Robinson, Strus, Reaves, Caruso, Finney-Smith, Dort, McConnell, Jones Jr, Alvarado, Eubanks, O’Neil, Kleber, C. Martin, Boucher, Landale, Hauser etc.), some of whom are available every year. This past year was a bad one for the FO but their options (other than trading rather than re-signing Nnaji) were limited.

The idea that the Celtics will win because they shoot outside is what people were saying about Pheonix against the wolves. Ask KD, Booker and Beal how all the shooting did. I think Dallas is actually the toughest team on the board still.

Nuggets problem is Jamal Murray, he is a liability to the team!.He is an injury magnet and on top of it he is very inconsistent in his performance, one game he is hitting 20+ and the next 4 games he doesn't show up!.Get Jokic someone consistent and of his same caliber like Luka Doncic and you just got yourselves a dynasty!.

It's my analogy. When you finally bag that super model. Are you gonna have to say energy to get her agand what happens when you win a championship you eat and drink and celebrate? Especially if it is your first, they played fat and satisfied if you say Jamal was not in shape, a lot of them probably was not in shthey all partied all season, they got interviews. And extra accolades in attendidn't and they didn't come hungry.And you're right minnesota looked like how we looked last year hungry

Wolves fan here, I have to give MAJOR props to Jokic and Murray for giving Wolves hell with their incredible performances, they were my biggest worries tonight and they pretty much proven that once again. Your Denver Nuggets have played hard, yet the Wolves responded in kind. For all of praises that Anthony Edwards has gotten, it was Karl Anthony-Towns, Rudy Gobert, Jaden McDaniels, Naz Reid, and Mike Conley that pushed the Wolves to win this game. Might this become a new rivalry for the next several years between these teams? I hoped so, they played some of best basketballs so far in the playoffs and I hope to see several more in future.

@cobrachannel100 13 дней назад

They had this game. They lost it because they took the foot off the gas. Started being careless with the ball, bad shots, which then lead to bad defense. All of that lead to Minn gaining confidence and trust. Interestingly enough, no leader on Denver could stop the bleeding - usually that is on Murray or Joker.

No bench and no contribution from high salaries. Braun has to figure it out on offense. If he can do that we can move on from KCP. A Bruce Brown wouldve worked wonders for Denver in these playoffs. Every time someone had to rest we knew we were about to watch 24 seconds of hell.

@alistair4945 12 дней назад

The segment on Tim Connelly sounds so entitled from you guys..Would Tim Connelly have won a championship with the Nuggets the way he was running things towards the end of his tenure? Maybe? I personally doubt it but only God knows. Has he won a title since? Not yet. Was it a bad look on Tim when the Nuggets beat the Wolves in 5 last year (without McDaniels and Reid tbf)? Has Calvin Booth made adjustments (not small like you seem to think/insinuate) that helped the Nuggets win a championship yet? Yes. Calvin Booth did have his failures this year but the way you're wording things makes it sound like he didn't do anything but the mistakes he made this year. While this season/playoff run being a failure is due to the Nuggets having won a championship already

@GFD618 13 дней назад

The nepo baby should’ve paid Connelly whatever he wanted. Twolves gave him 5yrs 40 mil and our counter offer wasn’t even close? That’s pathetic. Calvin is going to run this team into the ground with his approach. Tim is the best GM in the game today

If MPJ is still on the roster next year, I won’t be able to take Calvin Booth seriously anymore. Trade Mike, get a bag for him & upgrade your bench. Get a freaking proper big to spell Jokic. Someone who can actually contribute. You’re wearing out your best player otherwise & this was proven just now. Once Mike is gone, either replace him with an Alex Caruso type of two way player. Imagine KCP & Caruso on the same squad. Jules could even be inserted into Mike’s spot. Many options. Face it, MPJ stans, they cannot upgrade the roster otherwise, with their salary cap situation.
