00:00Now let's get you back to ball
00:01arena and the iconic adventurous
00:03Toyota forerunner.
00:04It's available now at your front
00:05range Toyota stores a good game
00:12a close game as we head to the
00:14third quarter the Nuggets up by
00:16four but first let's check in
00:18with Scott Hastings presented
00:19by HCA health one Chris at
00:22halftime you Vic and I were
00:23talking about how teams are
00:25playing to go to OK to watch
00:27this example.
00:28You've got the guy on the ball
00:30you're fronting Jokic in the
00:31post right there but look at
00:33these other guys I mean they're
00:34all inside the paint now when
00:36you roll it just a little bit
00:38the ball gets in the joker over
00:39the top stop it there now you've
00:42got three bodies right there
00:44Cam Johnson with a good move
00:46cut to the basket young fella
00:48easy dunk but that's how teams
00:50are playing joker right now they
00:53do not want the MVP to beat them
00:56Nuggets ended the half on a 13
00:59to free and one Chris Marlowe you
01:02heard from Scott Hastings Vic
01:03Lombardi here to Ingram had 30 in
01:06the first meeting between the two
01:07teams and remember he had the
01:10apparent game winning three
01:12pointer but it did not count
01:16Ingram held the four points in the
01:18first half you want to let him get
01:20hot he's a really good player that's
01:24the first miss tonight for Toronto
01:26they've made 11 of 12 and one more
01:31for Brandon Ingram 18 Wednesday
01:33night and win at Chicago and the
01:40lead is three Murray had nine in the
01:44in the first half
01:45and those on the run lay it up no
01:49Toronto's got it
01:53Toronto's got it
01:53long range three that's still here
01:55and the tip is good portal right
01:57there you come out and transition
02:00miss layup they get out running now
02:03all of a sudden you spread out
02:04defensively shot goes up no one's
02:07there to block out
02:10two-man game with Jokic defensive
02:17three seconds called on the Raptors
02:33and Murray's free throw rolls out
02:35remember Jokic missed too early now
02:38the Nuggets eight of twelve
02:41it always worries you when you get
02:43the drip drip drip miss free throws
02:46anywhere in the game
02:49Murray around the screen he's got
02:51Gordon no can't get it to him
02:53Murray around brutal
02:54Murray in the lane scoop it up and
02:56in
02:57nice work Jamal Murray he's in
02:59double figures
03:00he'll have to come right back at you
03:05pass it out
03:06Barrett for three
03:07no good Gordon's got it
03:10Warren Gordon eight points his
03:13third rebound tonight
03:16so important however on the
03:18defensive end Jokic trying to get
03:20clear
03:26Jokic trying to get around the
03:27corner up and under
03:28throw it away got too far in the basket
03:32and then just got got hooked nobody
03:34came over
03:41he's gonna go left he's left handed and
03:44you're with him two dribbles fired and
03:46then you stop
03:46the answer is back with an eight
03:51footer
03:52when Jamal Murray thirteen points now
03:54Jokic has ten four and four three
03:58Raptors in double figures
04:01quickly
04:02ready to get back Murray cool
04:06let's get that left
04:07just wants to get to that left hand
04:12they may call this one on Jokic
04:14they're gonna get the Murray on it
04:20size difference right there he tries
04:22to bang in Murray does a pretty good job
04:24and just that little arm in there as
04:26Barrett goes up doesn't affect the
04:28shop as good as we say he's left
04:30handed
04:31Barrett's free throw is good
04:40he's on the lane and Pirtle called for the
04:44fell
04:46Jokic Pirtle interestingly going through
04:49his bio today his parents played high
04:52level volleyball they were both on the
04:54Austrian indoor teams men and women
05:02height from his parents Murray at the
05:04line
05:12no dribbles one in hey tired of
05:14replacing your roof every couple of
05:16years break the cycle get your roof
05:18for a lifetime from Redhawk roofing
05:20going with the pros Redhawk roofing
05:24so one more for Jamal Murray
05:31only two players in the league have
05:33played 65 games and are averaging 25
05:36points or more Jamal Murray and Kevin
05:39Durant
05:42it's been a great season for Murray
05:44candidate for all NBA teams for sure
05:52for AG to come over now
05:54it's back in the lane and the dunk is
05:57good again let him drive the middle you
06:00there you take one step but then you
06:02don't want to reach you throw your
06:03hands up and Ingram
06:04Ingram's a score Murray's got all
06:06six for the Nuggets here in the
06:07period
06:11now Jokic bumps almost too deep
06:15this is a terrible idea that's twice
06:18he spun and once you spun you got to
06:20use the block on the on the court as
06:23an indicator where I want to be if
06:25you're on the block and you spin baseline
06:27side you've now put yourself behind
06:29the basket two straight plays that's
06:32going to be a shot but it's basically
06:34two plays that same spot for Jokic
06:35that are eternal very difficult
06:37angle for sure quickly with it tied
06:40at 63
06:46Ingram get the height advantage of
06:48Christian Brown pitches it into the
06:50corner to quickly quickly launches
06:57two in the lost to Denver in Toronto
07:00earlier.
07:06Murray firing away got it and they're
07:09playing differently defensively to
07:11stand out and they're basically
07:13going to almost dare Murray can you
07:16beat us?
07:17Well he has the potential to do that
07:19for sure.
07:30He's got all eight for the Nuggets in the
07:33period looking for more alley-oop to
07:35Gordon. No.
07:37And the turnover takes another half
07:39second a little more fundamental on
07:41the pass that's going to be a great
07:43it's a great idea and it's wide open
07:45but don't forget the next Nuggets
07:47telecast Portland coming to town
07:49Sunday early start check your times
07:52for that one.
07:53Ingram trying to shoot that's good
07:55and time out.
07:59Well the Nuggets who led by four are
08:01now down by four seven forty eight to
08:04go before we go to break say back to
08:06Chris Dempsey for the Intermountain
08:07Health sports break.
08:08Dempsey.
08:09Thank you well it's a light night in
08:11the NBA today just six games so
08:13we're going to pick two out that I
08:14think you will be very interested in
08:17there's going to be the Minnesota
08:18Timberwolves.
08:19These two teams obviously are right
08:20above the Nuggets in the standings.
08:23You see the Houston Rockets get the
08:25win.
08:25They blow out the Atlanta Hawks today.
08:26This game Portland and Minnesota
08:28has gone back and forth twenty
08:30C three.
08:31By Pathwater the exclusive water
08:33partner of the Denver Nuggets and
08:36by your local Ford stores ready set
08:39four.
08:41The Denver Nuggets dancers
08:42outstanding.
08:44We welcome you back inside ball
08:45arena sellout crowd.
08:49The Nuggets and the Raptors USA
08:52taking on Canada if you like.
08:54So far I would say this quarter for
08:57the Nuggets has been met.
08:58If you know what they haven't come
09:01up with tons and tons of energy.
09:04Really on either end.
09:08You'll get trying to get around the
09:10corner.
09:11There's the value of Gordon.
09:13The outlet for your kids.
09:15Pearl just planned itself.
09:18Left court.
09:19I think to help.
09:20Pearl knows your kids probably as
09:22well as any center in the league
09:23in terms of what he does.
09:25He don't know if he can stop it.
09:27As Gordon raises his hand but he's
09:29got knowledge.
09:34Sky cam presented by Ball Corporation.
09:37Let's take a look at that last
09:38bucket.
09:40Just force the issue.
09:42See Pearl just kind of just wait
09:43and just forgets about Aaron Gordon.
09:47Joker trust him.
09:49Two point lead for Toronto.
09:51Toronto on a three game win streak.
09:53They lost five in a row to the
09:56Nuggets however.
09:57Now quickly up and down.
09:59No he got off just in time and he
10:01knocks it in.
10:09Lots of two man game Gordon and Jokic.
10:20Christian beat the clock.
10:22That's no good.
10:23Brandon Ingram's got it.
10:25Picked up by Gordon.
10:36Just a lot of people standing
10:38around behind the scenes and just
10:41kind of frustrated.
10:44Let's go to Vic.
10:45Fellas you guys have used the word
10:47already a couple of times and it
10:48was the buzzword during the last
10:50huddle energy.
10:51David Adelman asking his boys.
10:53Let's show some energy right now.
10:54It looks like a listless team.
10:58Well you listen I know they're
11:01fatigued.
11:02Vic you and I were talking about
11:04it at halftime.
11:05We understand this but if you said
11:08this on your radio show this
11:09morning.
11:11Turning that switch on and off
11:13ain't always easy because
11:14sometimes there's a power outage
11:16right.
11:16That switch doesn't go on.
11:17So Denver's got to find something
11:20pick it up.
11:22Get a little energy here the last
11:2418 minutes this game.
11:27Toronto with a little burst here.
11:31This has got to be more aggressive.
11:37The rebound is caroled out selling out to
11:41stop your kitchen so far they've
11:42done a pretty good job is that they
11:43have your kids just 10 points.
11:46Time out Denver.
11:48This is right zero energy and
11:51really a lot of people not
11:52aggressive.
11:54We'll step aside 553 to go third
11:57quarter.
11:58Nuggets in a bit of trouble trailing
12:00by 10.
12:02Kitchen Murray.
12:04Trying to keep the mile high crew in
12:07it.
12:08But the Toronto Raptors defense has
12:11been very good.
12:13Time now for the indeed career scouting
12:16report.
12:18There it is.
12:21As you look at Luka Doncic with the
12:24Kolyokic Jamal Murray over 25 with
12:26seven assists.
12:28And his special company Lucas been on
12:31a tear lately.
12:32Lakers have been hot.
12:35Nuggets are trying to figure out how
12:37they got behind here.
12:4024 to 10 is the scoring here in the
12:42third quarter.
12:43Yep.
12:44Oh yeah.
12:45Quickly hit a couple of threes on
12:47you.
12:47You've kind of got lazy offensively.
12:51Lazy defensively too to be honest
12:52with you.
12:55Jokic wheels into the game scoop it up
12:57and in.
12:59Raptors have made 10 to 12 shots here
13:01in the period.
13:02Jokic going to go to the free
13:05throw line.
13:05You're probably going to have to have
13:07a lot more than he just going to force
13:08the issue.
13:09Keeps a hold of it.
13:10Not a lot of contact on there.
13:12But when he spins.
13:14Barnes team kind of put his body
13:15into him.
13:17Joker finishes with that left hand.
13:24Joker not sworn in.
13:26And it's 11 or 15 at the line.
13:29Raptors have made 14 of 15.
13:32Seven point lead for Toronto.
13:35There's some right here.
13:40It's like the 2-3 variety.
13:44You're trying to get someone in the
13:45middle if they can.
13:46Portal.
13:47And Portal with the option.
13:49Well see your baseline guy on the
13:51zone is all the way out to the wing
13:52and so they're just blood the areas
13:54where they get the defender to move.
13:57Hurl's got 19 points here in the game.
14:08Jokic has it taken away.
14:10That's a sweet bottle of that.
14:11Quickly.
14:12And the Raptors out on the fast break.
14:14That's an unforced dare just on the spin.
14:17He almost lost the one before that.
14:19Biggest lead of the ball game now for
14:21to Toronto.
14:2211 points.
14:27Gordon.
14:31Swarm Jokic down the middle.
14:34Good cut.
14:36Late in the sideline too.
14:37Didn't panic here.
14:38Didn't force a side.
14:43That's a flooded.
14:48Pops into the lane and puts it in.
14:52But just because you're in the zone.
14:53What's up.
14:54What's my zone.
14:55I got you and you're my zone.
14:56It's one on one.
14:57I mean you're playing.
14:59Hardaway.
15:03So I'm going to take a quick timeout.
15:05The offense kind of came back alive.
15:07I think I find some life on the
15:09defensive side.
15:10Kim Hardaway 11 off the bench.
15:12Bruce Brown has six.
15:13Nobody else has scored off the Nuggets
15:15bench tonight.
15:16So an 11 point lead that equals the
15:19largest of the evening.
15:23And the Nuggets quite frankly look a
15:25little bit discouraged here.
15:28Trying to find their rhythm trying to
15:30find the mojo.
15:31Well this team has been so good for
15:33for the last two or three years of
15:35just kind of playing the game and
15:38then all of a sudden hitting that
15:39switch that I tell you that the
15:40big was talking about those radio
15:41show and then all of a sudden wham.
15:43Here we go in that wham.
15:46They gotta go get some whammy
15:48juice because the wham just isn't
15:50there right now.
15:51We have a moment time now for the
15:53drive of the game brought to you by
15:54your local Ford stores.
15:55Ready, set Ford.
15:59Murray navigating.
16:03Degree of difficulty about an 8.5.
16:06Very nice.
16:07Murray taking the contact from
16:09Pirtle.
16:10But initially never lose the side of
16:12the goal.
16:14Murray tonight 17 points on 6 of
16:1812.
16:18Well he's only made one of four
16:20threes.
16:21But that three was the two
16:23hundredth.
16:24This season.
16:26For Jamal Murray.
16:30Can't be right Kenneth.
16:32Let me double check.
16:33Yeah it was.
16:34Two hundred of the season.
16:36Most in his career.
16:38Most by a nugget all time.
16:40Record was MPJ.
16:45Anyway.
16:4683-74.
16:48Here's our score.
16:57Shed.
17:00See if the Nuggets can get it
17:01going here in the last 340.
17:05Murray crosses over Shed shoots a
17:07three.
17:09Need a 2-0-1 on that one.
17:11Good rebound Ingram.
17:16And a foul on Denver.
17:25Now Brandon Ingram draws the
17:29fourth foul on Christian Brown.
17:35Ingram voted an all-star for the
17:37second time in his career
17:39averaging 20 points per game
17:40for the seventh straight season.
17:45If you're injured.
17:46No attorney is more qualified
17:47to know and to speak about
17:48your injuries than the doctor
17:49who's also a lawyer.
17:50Dr. Joseph Ramos.
17:52Ramoslaw.com.
17:56Christian Brown has to come out
17:57now.
17:58Bruce Brown comes in.
18:1210-point lead for the Raptors.
18:15Toronto with three and a half still.
18:16They've already made 13 field goals
18:18out of just 16 attempts.
18:20Over to Jokic.
18:22Jokic fires a three.
18:23Yes!
18:24Maybe a confidence builder
18:26for the big fella.
18:28Jokic has 16-7 assists now.
18:33Four rebounds.
18:3584-77.
18:36Jokic has 17-7.
18:39Nobody guarding Pirtle.
18:41And Pirtle is fine.
18:44So the leaving Pirtle alone.
18:46And they're worried about
18:47Ingram.
18:48Joker's floating over to Ingram.
18:50They actually set a screen on
18:51Ingram to get him open to get
18:53him the ball.
18:54Joker chased over there.
18:56They find Pirtle.
18:58Third foul on Jakub Pirtle.
19:00Excuse me.
19:02Third foul on Nikola Jokic.
19:04Put it at the line.
19:0965% free throw shooter is Jakub.
19:13Last game against the Nuggets in
19:15Toronto.
19:15We had 24 points.
19:1611 rebounds.
19:17On plays like that where they're
19:19double teaming somebody else.
19:20And he ends up open.
19:22Well that's happened all back
19:23tonight.
19:25One of two.
19:26Jokic has it.
19:34Dump it into Jokic.
19:35It's batted away.
19:37They're just, I mean.
19:39It's such a high-low pass
19:41that all of a sudden
19:43eight people could come see it.
19:47Jokic goes and gets the miss.
19:49And blocked out by Spencer Jones.
19:53Murray gets shed.
19:57Murray tried to shed shed.
19:58He does.
19:59And he hoops it up and in.
20:04Oh no, he's got the lead to six.
20:07Murray's got 19 now.
20:14Hardaway picks up shed.
20:205 to shoot.
20:23And he drops it in.
20:25Pretty good defense.
20:26Just, just a professional score
20:28making that one.
20:30Well, England's got 12.
20:32Murray's got 10 in the period.
20:40That's a good play.
20:41Can he convert?
20:43He does.
20:44I like that a lot.
20:46Murray draws the double team
20:47right to Jokic.
20:48Right to Bruce Brown.
20:50Now they've done the double team.
20:51And no one even wrote states to
20:53Jokic until he's in the paint.
20:55Nine points for Bruce off the bench.
20:59Nuggets playing catch up here.
21:01Late third quarter.
21:10Long range, Ingram short.
21:13And the Raptors come out to the offensive rebound.
21:16And Ingram lays it in.
21:17And this an easy rebound.
21:19This long rebound goes out of your hands.
21:24Six of the last seven for Denver.
21:27And the pass under to Jones.
21:30He was being held.
21:31And Mamu grabbed the backside.
21:33Spence had a layup that he's able to catch it.
21:39The foul on Walter.
21:42Ingram and purple go out.
21:45Mamu and Jamison.
21:48Come back in Jamison battle.
21:52Second year man from Ohio State.
21:57I guess looking for a bucket this time down.
22:00Cam Johnson going to work with Jokic.
22:03Jokic guarded by Barnes.
22:06Jokic singled up.
22:07Here he comes.
22:08And he shot his blocks.
22:11Mamu's got it.
22:15And a good look for corner three.
22:20And the lead bounces back up to 10.
22:32I'll just grab it all.
22:34They're getting away with it.
22:35Hardaway for three.
22:37And he nails it straight away.
22:41Oh, Tim Hardaway.
22:42Lucky he got on the bus tonight.
22:44He's got 14 off the bench.
22:4792-85.
22:50Final 10 seconds.
22:52I guess they need a shutout right here.
22:55Now, Barnes.
22:56Into the lane.
22:58And moves.
22:59And drops it up and in.
23:031.2 remaining.
23:06Cam Johnson.
23:07No.
23:08And that's the end of the third quarter.
23:12A rough one for Denver.
23:14We go to the fourth.
23:15Nuggets trailing by nine.
23:17You're watching Altitude Sports.
23:19Your home for Nuggets basketball.
23:40That was our whole story presented by Advent Health reminding us to never underestimate the human spirits.
23:46Along with Vic Lombardi, Scott Hastings.
23:49So, a crowd on Chris Marlowe.
23:50Nuggets got some work to do.
23:52They trailing by nine as we begin the fourth quarter.
23:55These five minutes are going to be crucial for the Denver Nuggets.
23:59They've got this small group in there.
24:02Playing without a center.
24:04We'll see if this team can manufacture some points.
24:07We're going to play small.
24:08You've got to play small, physical.
24:10Murray in on Walter.
24:11He's doubled.
24:11Right out to Bruce Brown.
24:14And Bruce Brown knocks it in.
24:16Good way to start.
24:19Bruce E. B.
24:20He's got 12 points.
24:23Ian Hardaway carrying the load off the bench.
24:27Down the middle to Walter.
24:29Misses the lamp.
24:30Perhaps a harbinger of good things to come for Denver.
24:3394-88.
24:36Murray against Barrett.
24:38Couple Canadian teammates.
24:40It's a return shoot.
24:42Got it.
24:43Got his rhythm.
24:44Getting his rhythm right there.
24:4694-90.
24:52Murray at the 21.
24:59Shot missed.
25:00Scramble it up.
25:01Oh my goodness.
25:01Look, it's after it.
25:04It's a scrum.
25:08You might want to look at it.
25:16Nuggets coaches just calling for a replay here.
25:24And the coaches challenge is coming up.
25:26I don't know how they didn't see that the first time.
25:30All right.
25:31We'll step aside.
25:32Coming back.
25:33Nuggets coaches challenge.
25:34It's an important one.
25:35So stay tuned.
25:38This coaches challenge is presented by Meritrust.
26:05Credit Union.
26:06This is a scramble.
26:07Where your financial well-being is our purpose.
26:10That's it.
26:11And Bruce had it for a while.
26:13Just lost it.
26:14Crazy.
26:14But the question was, does Spencer Jones get in there?
26:17Could they call a proximate foul?
26:18But he got the ball.
26:20He doesn't trip.
26:21He moves his hands away.
26:23The fight is admirable.
26:25Now, can the Nuggets get it going from here?
26:28They trailing 94-90.
26:31Murray's got 21.
26:32He's running the show.
26:34He's doubled.
26:36Murray, long range three.
26:38Oh!
26:38He's feeling it!
26:40He be feeling it!
26:43And the Nuggets within one now.
26:47The crowd is alive at Ballerina.
26:51Chen, defense!
26:53Spencer Jones in on Barrett.
26:56This group will be aggressive.
26:57If you're going to play small, you've got to be aggressive.
26:59So far, so good.
27:04Defense!
27:04Zebron trying to get back with his left-hand.
27:06He does, missed it!
27:07Toronto missing some easy shots that they made earlier.
27:12Nowamp Johnson falls down.
27:14Now it's turnover.

51:45They called a timeout right away.
51:48Make or miss, they were calling the timeout.
51:519.1 remaining in the crowd, standing here at Ball Arena.
51:59Right now, it is time to take off with Southwest Airlines.
52:03We are talking Nikola Jokic tonight.
52:0722-9-8 for the Joker.
52:12Boy, the way they guard him with one, with two, with three, with more.
52:16But he still manages to get the numbers no matter what.
52:20Well, he, someone said, well, they only got eight rebounds.
52:23He got a monster offensive rebound late, though, didn't he?
52:27And he's 9 for 14.
52:28The efficiency is there.
52:34So, the Denver Nuggets trying to go to 43-28 overall.
52:42With a win, they get there.
52:46They're trying to beat Toronto for the sixth straight time.
52:53Raptors here in the fourth quarter have only made one of four free throws.
52:57And good news, what's the good news?
53:01One of them went into Minnesota and won.
53:06So, if the Nuggets can hang on here, we'll cover this extensively on the post-game show.
53:13They'll be tied with Minnesota rigor-wise, but they have the tiebreaker.
53:18They will move into fifth because of the head-to-head tiebreaker.
53:24Not out of the woods yet.
53:26Four-point lead, 9.1 remaining.
53:29Well, there's going to be a foul before the ball was in.
53:35Hardaway and Jokic discussing.
53:37Well, Barrett grabbed a hold of Jamal before the ball got in,
53:42so you're going to get a free throw and another ball back.
53:46Well, Murray camping out at the free throw line.
53:49He's made eight of nine tonight.
53:51Nuggets overall 17 of 22.
53:55Another 30-point night for Jamal Murray.
53:58Right when you really needed him because he and that group that started the fourth quarter won this game.
54:06So, a five-point lead into Joker, and the foul committed.
54:12Joker, that guy gives the ball to Gordon, so he gets the points.
54:19Jamal Murray, 31 tonight.
54:22That's his 20th game of 30 or more.
54:26The career high, he's been sensational.
54:29As Gordon, he's only got 26 in his career, so he, heck, you never know.
54:34He may have to, he may get that number this year.
54:38Now, Jokic is going to set himself in the lane against Pertle.
54:46Now, let's look at it.
54:48Look at this.
54:48Barnes shoving Jokic, and Jokic shoving right back.
54:52It's a battle in the lane.
54:56Gordon, and he puts it in.
54:59And a timeout by Darko.
55:03No, Darko.
55:06His team behind by six.
55:08The Nuggets looking to sweep the season series from Toronto.
55:11They got a three-point win up in Toronto earlier in the season.
55:18And they are up by six with just six seconds remaining.
55:23Jamal Murray has really come to play.
55:25Really got it going in the second half.
55:29Scott mentioned the group that was in.
55:33Well, Jamal Murray was three of eight at halftime.
55:37He's seven of ten in the second half.
55:39So, you're absolutely right.
55:41He got on fire in that second half and 22 points.
55:47And really, I'm telling you, that group that came in to start that third,
55:51and you were down nine points, and they just blitzed them.
55:56They went small, and that group was aggressive defensively
56:00and really, really did the job and got them in the game.
56:04Gave them a chance to win this game tonight.
56:07The Nuggets trailed by as many as 11.
56:11A fabulous crowd cheering on the whole team.
56:15How about this?
56:16The Nuggets biggest league.
56:21121, 115.
56:26Defenders are in.
56:27Bruce Brown, he's on Barnes.
56:33Don't want anything mysterious to happen here.
56:37Into the corner, three-pointer on the way.
56:39That's no good.
56:41Rebound available.
56:44Now, the fan gets the player to take home as a souvenir.
56:47Ingham doing everything he could to save that thing with two rows deep.
56:53How about the husband getting up out of the way
56:55and letting the wife just get hammered?
56:57And that is going to do it.
56:59Come on, man.
57:00Happy husband, yeah.
57:02Nuggets trailed by as many as 11.
57:04They find a way to win.
57:06They will go to 20 and 13 at home.
57:10They improve to 43 and 28 on the season.
57:14The Raptors fall to 39 and 30 overall.
57:1720 and 14 on the road.
57:19And the bottom line, Jokic gets a haircut,
57:21and the Nuggets get the win.
57:24And Jokic with Darko.
57:27And there was nothing easy about this game,
57:29but Toronto, who had won three in a row
57:32and had been playing pretty good,
57:34what, 10 out of 11 really came in
57:36and just gave Denver everything they needed.
57:38But, man, that group in the fourth quarter was outstanding.
57:41A terrific team win for the Denver Nuggets.
57:45Right now, let's go on to the floor
57:47and join Vic Lombardi.
57:49Here it is, Tim Hardaway.
57:54Tim Hardaway, ladies and gentlemen.
57:56I love watching your intensity.
57:58You have the intensity of a thousand suns out there.
58:01How do you get yourself into that lather?
58:04I mean, after a loss like last game,
58:08just wanted to come back here,
58:09play with intensity, play with tenacity,
58:12and just give the second unit some energy.
58:15The key was the early part of that fourth quarter.
58:18You guys go small.
58:19You go on that 13-2 run.
58:20What was the message after the third?
58:22Pride. Pride.
58:23Go out there, compete on both ends of the floor,
58:26concentrate on your shot making.
58:28But on that end of the floor,
58:30I think we did a heck of a job of sitting down, guarding,
58:33keeping guys in front of us,
58:34and taking the challenge.
58:35Tim, your team has been involved in so many of these clutch games.
58:39What's the difference between winning and losing late?
58:45The difference between winning and losing is when you lose,
58:49it's going to affect you in the long haul.
58:52So I'm just happy to be able to be out here at the end of the game,
58:56crunch time, clutch time, any time.
58:59Just want to win.
59:00Well, they don't win without your seven threes.
59:02Congratulations.
59:03Thank you.
59:03Appreciate it.
59:04Tim Hardaway, everybody.
59:05Great play for Hardaway.
59:07With the win, the Nuggets moved into fifth place in the West.
59:09They are trailing Houston by percentage points.
59:12And, Scott, give me your overall thoughts on that win.
59:15Listen, after the game in Memphis,
59:20that can have a residual effect.
59:23It's like when you – Chris, remember when you were young,
59:25she got sprayed by the skunk up in the – no skunk ever sprayed.
59:30The – no skunk ever sprayed.
