00:00The Celtics and the Nuggets in Denver last night. It seemed like it might be a finals preview if

00:06Nikoli Jokic was out on the floor but a five and a half point spread in favor of the Seas even at

00:13mile high when we expected to see Jokic became nearly double digits by the time he was scratched

00:20from the game and Boston made good on that number winning 118-106 outright by 12 points covering as

00:29a closing 10 and a half point favorite. Yeah Boston jumped out early Ben to that 12 point

00:33first quarter league but it's actually tied at the half and typically when you're at elevation

00:37the other team that's not used to it usually falters that didn't happen with the Celtics

00:41but again maybe the best player in the NBA sat this one out against a full gas Celtics team

00:45which also saw Chris Stapps Porzingis play 34 minutes and drop 25 points but I do like the

00:50joke about the Denver Nuggets when you talk about who's in who's out and who wants to play

00:53you talk about Westbrook they lose by 12 points loved it he got 33 minutes in that game shot

00:5718 times from the floor tons of rebounds tons of assists and they lost he was right back in

01:02his OKC bag like dang isn't this great I get to play a lot of minutes and put up a lot of numbers

01:06and so what if we win or lose Boston was always going to win that game the minute that you saw

01:10Jokic was out improving 27-10 but credit the Denver Nuggets for at least hanging around for

01:15one full half which again elevation should have helped him out in the second and it didn't.
