07:15Good slip from Brown but goes off of his leg and Scoot Henderson corrals it for the Blazers
07:23Lillard gets downhill good recovery by AG defensively Henderson nice move and a fancy finish on the reverse
07:31Scoot Henderson filling in for Ja Morant on this Portland Trail Blazers starting lineup here
07:36Second straight game that Ja Morant is out
07:40Dealing with a hamstring issue Jokic straightaway three in and outs
07:53Turnover
07:54Two on one Johnson tried to put a man on a poster and he's found and that sends Cam Johnson
08:01to the free throw line
08:02The defense on the other end though impressive from Denver Cam Johnson in transition right here trying to throw it
08:08down
08:08With authority but Aaron Gordon keeping Avdia in front like that getting a hand on the basketball and Cam Johnson
08:14closing that driving space
08:16Denny Avdia second in drives per game in the entire NBA 24 of them per game
08:22The Nuggets are gonna see that all night long and Avdia gets to the free throw line out of them
08:25He gets to the basket out of it
08:27So you have to make sure that you're doing your best to contain the basketball
08:30And that's what he does he averaged almost 28 drives per game last year which led the NBA
08:35Right near that same pace again to the first couple weeks this year
08:40Cam Johnson connects in the first free throw
08:42First points of the night for the Nuggets by somebody not named Jamal Murray
08:57Two for two trick for Cam and the lead expands back up to four for the Nuggets in the first
09:01four minutes
09:08Portland team that is not lost in the road this season
09:103-0 away from Portland and Dame is fouled
09:14Two free throws coming up Nikola Jokic thinks it should be way before the shot
09:20That is another area that this Portland team really thrives
09:23Second in free throw attempts per game they get there 31 times a game
09:28Damian Lillard because he's such a great three-point shooter
09:31You have to go all the way out there
09:33He puts a little hesitation on and can get all the way to the basket too
09:35I feel like that's an underrated aspect of his game that people don't talk about as much
09:38His ability to use his dribble penetration to get all the way to the hoop
09:43The Blazers offense that's averaging more than 120 points per game
09:47That is top five in the NBA
09:49And they are also fourth in offensive rating at 118 this season
09:54The team that's got it clicking right now through a four-in-one start
10:04One for two trip for Damian Lillard
10:08Kamara wants to push slicing through two defenders
10:11Oh he almost got that to fall on a teardrop
10:15Kamara looked for Lillard
10:17No deflection and Nuggets ball off of another Trailblazers turnover
10:21The third already in the first quarter
10:24And the Trailblazers typically have done a good job of taking care of the basketball
10:27Just 14 turnovers a game
10:29So Nuggets defense being disruptive early
10:31Getting them out of what they want to be doing
10:33First game of that road trip
10:34Denver held New Orleans to just 91 points
10:38Won the first game of that road trip
10:40With mainly defense
10:41And then it was more offense in Phoenix
10:43And there's a whistle against Damian Lillard
10:45Trying to fight through the dribble handoff
10:51Nuggets have had a couple of these already too
10:53Cam Johnson obviously such a high basketball IQ
10:56But he understands that if he cuts hard to a spot
10:58He can draw fouls in those situations without even having the basketball
11:05Jokic goes off CB and a goaltend
11:08Count the bucket for Christian Brown
11:10Who's coming off a career high 31 on Friday
11:14Christian Brown just has such a knack for finding with open space
11:17And the pain especially off of cuts and slips
11:19Screening situations
11:21His first two of the night
11:23Five point lead for the Nuggets
11:26Avdia wrestling inside against Cam
11:32Avdia straight line drive to the basket
11:34He lays it in with the left hands
11:43Johnson downhill
11:44Pocket pass to Jokic
11:46Blocks by Klingen
11:47Jokic regathers and scores
11:55First two points of the night for Nikola Jokic
11:57Also a couple rebounds and assists
12:00Now make it three rebounds
12:10Brown good lead
12:11Jokic the bucket
12:14Timeout taken by Portland
12:16And the offense picking up right where it left off on Friday
12:18Nikola Jokic absolutely dominating inside the paint
12:22He's got a floater
12:24Misses the first one gets blocked but stays with it
12:26The persistence of the big man inside
12:28And then Christian Brown coming off that hard
12:31Klingen has to come over
12:36Military appreciation night here inside Ball Arena
12:38And the Nuggets with a seven point lead over the Trail Blazers
12:42Including plus seven on the glass
12:45Damian Lillard off a swing pass
12:47In and out on the three
12:49Jokic snags his fourth rebound in the first quarter
12:51Good ax out on the weak side there from Christian Brown and Jamal Murray
12:55Covering up the shooters after they kicked it out
12:58Dan Johnson on a catch and shoot three left and short
13:00Lillard the rebound
13:01Avdia the chance to run in transition
13:03Going right at Jokic
13:05And seven early points for Denny Avdia
13:08Avdia plays so fast
13:09So fast
13:10Blink and you miss it
13:11You have to pick him up at least that half quarter around there
13:14So he doesn't get that full head of steam
13:15Going all the way to the bucket
13:16His scoring has increased each and every year in his career through the first six seasons
13:22Capped off by the 24 points in an all-star last year
13:26Jamal Murray earns a trip to the line
13:30And that's just I mean
13:33Great offense from Jamal Murray and being able to draw that foul
13:37Kamar is an exceptional perimeter defender
13:39He knows tendencies
13:41He knows the scouting report
13:42But for Jamal Murray he has so many weapons in his bag that he can go to
13:48One of them which is drawing the foul and getting to the free throw line
13:51And that's already foul number two on Kamara as well
13:53With about five and a half to go in the first quarter
13:56The rookie checks in for the first time tonight
13:58Trevin Brazil and Aaron Gordon takes a seat
14:01And I think Trevin Brazil
14:03We'll see quite a bit of him tonight
14:05Because of his ability to be the low man in Denver's defense
14:08And be a rim protector and come in and block shots and get out and contest three-pointers
14:12He's the perfect defensive candidate to go against this Portland Trailblazers team
14:16In terms of what they're trying to do
14:18They've got shooters on the outside and they're trying to attack the paint
14:21He's averaging about 9.7 rebounds for the first five games of his NBA career
14:25He's been fantastic and exactly what David Adelman has asked of him
14:34Five to shoot
14:35Obdia
14:35Really nice one-on-one defense from Christian Brown
14:38Obdia is short
14:40Klingin taps the rebound to himself
14:42Second chance
14:43Portland can't score
14:45And there is Brazil on the glass immediately
14:50Murray hesitates and scores
14:58Double figures already for Jamal Murray
15:00He's got 11 less than eight minutes into this game
15:08No on the three
15:09Klingin another offensive rebound
15:11The reload for Kamara
15:13This one falls
15:15Sometimes that's the best three-point look you can get
15:18Is off an offensive rebound
15:19They call that a dagger three
15:20And Kamara misses the first one
15:22Just relocates spots up
15:26Brazil kicks
15:27CB
15:28Got it
15:30The confidence continues for Christian Brown
15:33Stepping in
15:34Knocking it down from deep for Denver
15:36He is now 11 for his last 15
15:39Behind the three-point line
15:41And that's all happened in the last six quarters
15:48Kamara again
15:53Scramble for the rebound
15:54Brown comes up with it
15:56Here comes Jamal
15:57Cross-court pass
16:00A bounce to CB
16:03This one swirls out
16:04Let's go
16:09Let's go
16:10Obdia
16:10Straight down the baseline
16:12Missed it
16:12Klingin the offensive rebound
16:14In the cleanup
16:16Klingin's been all over the offensive glass already
16:18He's got four rebounds total in this game
16:20And any
16:21It feels like any
16:22For long three that's been missed
16:23Or inside that's been missed
16:25And that responsibility
16:26Can't just be on Nicole Jokic
16:27Everybody has to collectively rebound the basketball defensively
16:30Three of his four rebounds are offensively
16:33And it's directly led to five second chance points for the Blazers
16:40Cam swings it back out to Jokic
16:43Steps in to Klingin
16:44And got a hand on it
16:50Obdia lobs Klingin
16:51Cannot catch it on the gather
16:53And Jamal Murray was the last to touch it
16:56Stays with Portland on the other side
17:00Grilling the season from the rookie Trevon Brazil
17:02And let's see what he has to say about it
17:07I actually wanted him to throw it a little like
17:09He threw it high enough
17:10But I want it like a little wider
17:12You know
17:12So I can actually throw it
17:14You know
17:14Something crazy down
17:16But no
17:17It was a good pass
17:17You know
17:18They all know
17:18You know
17:18I like my passes real high
17:20You know
17:20You can throw it anywhere at the rim
17:21I'm gonna go get it
17:22So
17:22You know
17:23I think they're all getting used to that
17:24And comfortable with it
17:27Katie he also said
17:28That
17:29These guys
17:30My teammates
17:31They think that they're gonna turn it over
17:32If they throw it too high
17:33And I tell them
17:34You're not gonna turn it over
17:35You can literally throw it anywhere
17:37And I'll
17:37I'll find it
17:39And I'll dunk it
17:40I do think that's an underrated part of
17:42Learning a new teammate
17:43Like Trevon Brazil
17:44You do have to have those conversations
17:45As he gets the steal right there
17:47He got the deflection
17:48Now he's leading the way in traffic
17:49And he's called for an offensive foul
17:52I thought Sissoko was still moving
17:54But the call is a charge on Trevon Brazil
17:57Well and Sissoko is a player
17:58That's looking to take charges
18:00And kind of do the dirty work
18:01For the Portland Trail Blazers
18:02And Trevon Brazil was trying to avoid the contact there
18:05Was trying to avoid the defender
18:09Defensive rebound and a steal already for Brazil
18:11In his early first quarter minutes
18:14Scoot Henderson
18:15Steps back behind the line
18:16Off the heel
18:17Brazil leaps for the rebound
18:25And a whistle
18:27Goes against Vite Krejci
18:29The sixth year pro just checked in at the last time out
18:33Another thing I thought that was interesting
18:34That Trevon Brazil shared with us
18:36After Nuggets practice
18:38Rebounding is the area of his game
18:41That he's still focused on improving the most
18:43And I feel like that area is where he's made a name for himself already
18:47With the Nuggets
18:48It's the reason that Aaron Gordon said that he's immediately trusted him
18:51As a young player in this league
18:52His ability to rebound
18:53To get up
18:54To commit to that
18:55But Trevon Brazil thinks he can do more
18:56Yeah
18:57He had a number in mind too
18:58He said there's no reason why I can't get eight rebounds per game
19:01As we see Alpha Diallo checking in for the first time
19:04Since the opener against Oklahoma City
19:07Dealt with a right wrist sprain
19:09Great to see him in the game
19:10Yeah, and he also was dealing with some family matters off the court as well
19:14So it was kind of a combination of those things
19:16And look, he's going to be a pest defensively
19:19What can he do against some of these high crafty
19:22High volume crafty drivers that Portland has on the floor
19:26DeMar DeRozan picks up his first
19:28And the defense is why they brought in Alpha Diallo
19:30EuroLeague best defender
19:32A season ago about a steal and a half per game
19:35Looked pretty solid on that end of the floor
19:37In the opener against Oklahoma City
19:41Henderson accelerates into the paint
19:43Missed it but got his own
19:44Down and out
19:45Jokic taps the rebound out to DeRozan
19:55DeRozan spins a couple times
20:00Tyus Jones gets to the cup
20:02He got bumped with no whistle
20:09Trey Chee to the red a minute bucket
20:12Like I said a little bit of a disadvantage
20:14Because Tyus Jones was still underneath the bucket
20:16On the other end there
20:17Portland looking to push the pace
20:18When they have numbers
20:26Final minute 20 of the first quarter
20:30Jokic gives to Jones
20:32Right back to Jokic
20:3312 foot floater drops through
20:35The more that this unit can get to the two man game
20:38With Tyus Jones and Nikola Jokic
20:40I think good things will happen for them offensively
20:42Drew Holiday the 18th year pro
20:45Swirls down and out
20:46On the full weight jumper
20:47And it's a one and done trip
20:56This is already the largest lead of the first quarter
20:59For the Nuggets
20:59And DeMar DeRozan adds to it
21:02With a chance at a three point play
21:08Such a great player
21:09In so many ways
21:11But drawing the foul
21:12And being able to finish through the contact
21:14DeMar DeRozan
21:15Especially in the mid range
21:16That is his favorite place to operate
21:19And right there
21:20Putting his skill set on full display
21:25There are only four guys left
21:27In the NBA
21:28That are in their 18th season
21:29That were all a part of the same draft class
21:32And that was DeMar DeRozan
21:33James Harden
21:34Steph Curry
21:35And Drew Holiday
21:36Two of the four
21:37We are seeing in this game
21:38With Holiday on the Blazers
21:43Jokic to the bench
21:44Before the end of the first quarter
22:00Lillard
22:01Defended by Diallo
22:02And his floater drops
22:08Rosen double teamed in the corner
22:16Rosen rejects the screen
22:17Gets the paint
22:18Diallo to Jones
22:21Brazil
22:21If I just shoot
22:22Muscles it up against the defense
22:24It will not get the bounce
22:26But TB goes the line for two
22:28This is one of the first times
22:29That we're seeing a full second unit
22:31On the floor
22:31For Denver
22:32There's not a starter that's in
22:34And so who's leading the pack
22:36Who's looking to score
22:37How are you executing
22:38Your offense
22:39And your defense
22:39Really
22:40I think this is more
22:40Of a defensive minded unit
22:42That's out there
22:43They can disrupt
22:44And then get out and run
22:45But good to see
22:46Trevin Brazil
22:47Kind of making something happen
22:48There with this second unit
22:57Now get this low zero down lease
22:59On a built Ford Tough
23:00F-150
23:00For just $4.79 a month
23:06First missed free throw
23:07Of the night for the Nuggets
23:09After they started
23:0910 for 10
23:16It's an 0 for 2 trip
23:17Here for Trevin Brazil
23:19Shot clock turned off
23:20Blazers can save
23:21For the final shot
23:22At the quarter
23:22Down 10
23:28Lillard goes with 5
23:31Tapped away
23:32Brazell with 2 seconds
23:34Brazell
23:34The rib reaper
23:36Does it again
23:45We're going to need
23:46To stopwatch that
23:47Throw a little stop
23:48Start
23:48Was it a second
23:50Was it 2
23:50I don't even know
23:52Christian Brown
23:52Gets a hand on it
23:53And Trevin Brazil
23:54Cleans it up
23:54He sees the time
23:55On the clock
23:57Does it once
23:57And this is a Portland
23:58Trailblazer team
23:59Third most first quarter points
24:01Scored in the NBA
24:01To start this season
24:02And they averaged 31
24:04The Nuggets held them
24:05To just 19
24:06Held them to 2 of 10
24:07From the 3 point line
24:08So certainly the defensive
24:10Effort is something
24:10That Denver should be
24:11Really proud of
24:12The way that they've
24:13Started this game
24:13Mike and Ori's team
24:14Shot just 33%
24:16From the field
24:17In total
24:17Denver meanwhile
24:1850%
24:20On the way to
24:21A 12 point lead
24:22After one quarter
24:23This is almost exactly
24:24What Portland did
24:25Against Utah
24:26A few nights ago
24:26They went to this zone
24:27And they got a bunch
24:28Of turnovers out of it
24:29Denver has to be able
24:30To take care of
24:30The basketball here
24:31It's DeRozan
24:32From the mid range
24:33And that's a good start
24:34To the quarter
24:35As he gets the bounce
24:45An all second unit
24:47On the floor
24:48For the Nuggets
24:48No starters in to begin
24:51Obdia no
24:51Tip in won't go either
24:52But an offensive rebound
24:54For Robert Williams
24:55Down the reload
24:56And he sticks it
24:57So that's two
24:58Of their
24:58Three made threes
25:00That have come off
25:01Of offensive rebounds
25:02You have to secure
25:03The defensive rebound
25:04Go after the loose
25:05Basketballs
25:06Of the 22 points
25:08Portland has scored
25:09Tonight
25:09Eight of them
25:10Have come via
25:10The second chance
25:15Throws and kicks
25:16Diallo got the defender
25:17To fly by
25:18He darts to the cup
25:19Can't finish
25:20Bagley is fouled
25:24This unit too
25:25For Denver
25:26Has really good size
25:27Against a big
25:28Portland Trailblazers
25:29Team
25:30Alpha Diallo
25:31I love that he didn't
25:32Settle for that
25:32Outside shot
25:33Drove in
25:34Marvin Bagley
25:34Is there
25:35For the offensive rebound
25:37Strong trying to power up
25:39Through the Portland
25:40Trailblazers defenders
25:41Look at the way
25:42He keeps his body
25:43Controlled inside
25:44And hangs on
25:44To the basketball
25:45Now he's at the
25:45Free throw line
25:46Because of it
25:55Miss free throw
25:56Three straight
25:57Miss for the
25:58Nuggets
25:58After starting
25:58Ten of ten
25:59At the line
25:59In the first quarter
26:12There goes one of two
26:13Pushes the lead
26:14Up to twelve
26:25Here's Abdiya
26:26Turned away
26:29Second unit's been really
26:30Solid in their minutes
26:31Ten bench points
26:32For the Nuggets
26:33And Damian Lillard
26:34Draws a foul
26:35Against the rookie
26:36Trevin Brazil
26:38When it comes to
26:39Damian Lillard
26:40You have to be out there
26:41Because the moment
26:41He steps past half court
26:42That's in his range
26:43Trevin Brazil
26:44So all he has to do
26:45There is show his hands
26:46He can cover so much
26:47Ground with how long
26:48He is defensively
26:50Does a pretty good job
26:51Of applying ball pressure
26:52Then slide with
26:53Damian Lillard
26:54He has a chance
26:54To block that shot
26:55From behind
26:56And if he does
26:56Get beat to the basket
26:57You just have to
26:58Show your hands
26:58Keep your hands
26:59Out of there
27:03His first
27:03Three throw drops
27:05One of the best
27:06Three point shooters
27:07The game has ever
27:09Seen
27:09Damian Lillard
27:11Fifth most
27:12Threes
27:12At over 2800
27:14And when your name
27:15Is on the list
27:15With those guys
27:16And it comes to shooting
27:18Something's going well
27:19And he just
27:20I mean
27:20Draws so much
27:21Similarly to
27:22Steph Curry
27:23You draw so much
27:24Gravity within an offense
27:25You draw so much
27:25Attention
27:26That you give
27:27A player like
27:28Denny Optia
27:29More room to operate
27:30More room to drive
27:31I mean
27:32That's a great example
27:32Of a player
27:33Of a teammate
27:34That's reaping the benefits
27:35Of Damian Lillard
27:36Just being on the floor
27:38Great for the game
27:39Of basketball
27:39To have Damian Lillard
27:41Back
27:41Missed all of last season
27:42Recovering from the Achilles
27:44Injury that he suffered
27:45In the 2025 playoffs
27:49A foul
27:50Against Portland
27:59Chris Youngblood
28:00Is called for it
28:01As soon as he checks in
28:13Here's DeRozan
28:14Elevates from the midrange
28:15Left it short
28:19Avdia knocked away
28:20By DeRozan
28:24Lillard gets it across
28:26Three is too strong
28:27Diallo flies in
28:29For the board
28:35DeRozan is bumped
28:36On the drive
28:39DeMar DeRozan
28:40It's been talked about
28:41That his defense
28:43Has room for improvement
28:44He's got three steals
28:46In each of the last
28:46Three games
28:47And by him
28:48Executing
28:49One of the elements
28:49The Nuggets are trying
28:50To imply
28:50That tagging up
28:51It forces Portland
28:53Into a rushed
28:53Offensive possession
28:54That the Nuggets
28:55End up securing
28:56A missed shot rebound
28:57And getting out
28:57And running
28:59And now an offensive foul
29:01Is called against
29:02Marvin Bagley
29:03A moving screen
29:10David Adelman's team
29:11With a ten point lead
29:12Here
29:16Pretty wide base
29:17From Marvin Bagley
29:18There but again
29:18I like that foul
29:20That's a physicality
29:21Injected into the game
29:22Foul
29:23Avdia banks it in
29:24After drawing the contact
29:26From Aaron Gordon
29:31Such a difficult cover
29:32In this league
29:33Aaron Gordon
29:34Just got caught
29:35A step behind
29:36Right there
29:36And when that happens
29:37Because Avdia
29:38Is so quick
29:38Immediately upon
29:40Catching that
29:40Sense that the defense
29:42On his heels
29:43Already
29:46Chance that a
29:47Three point play
29:48For Denny Avdia
29:49Seventh year pro
29:50Who's already been
29:51Very effective
29:52To start tonight
29:54That free throw
29:55Puts him into
29:56Double figures
29:56The first one
29:57For Portland
29:58Tonight
30:10Shot clock
30:11Already under ten
30:14DeRozan
30:14Backs down
30:15The shorter
30:15Defender
30:16Falls away
30:16From the mid range
30:17And catches it in
30:18Now with DeMar DeRozan
30:20Has room to operate
30:21Along the baseline
30:21Particularly in that
30:22Mid range
30:23Good things happen
30:24For Denver's offense
30:25The needed bucket
30:27Two for the Nuggets
30:27Put it into a
30:287-1 run
30:30For Portland
30:31But Damian Lillard
30:32Going back to the line
30:33For three more
30:34On the other side
30:35DeMar DeRozan
30:36Attacking the defense
30:38Again that one-on-one
30:38Coverage
30:39Feels where the body's at
30:41And the way that he can
30:42Create space
30:43After backing down
30:44To elevate into a shot
30:45Over the defender
30:46So impressive
30:47A skill that he has
30:48Mastered through the years
30:49And on the other end
30:50DeMar DeRozan
30:51Being a leader
30:52Seeing that
30:53Alpha Diallo
30:53Foul Damian Lillard
30:54He's pointing at his head
30:55Saying we've got to be
30:56Smarter than that
30:57Damian Lillard
30:58Trying to draw those
30:59Fouls
30:59Particularly from the
31:00Three-point line
31:01And DeMar DeRozan
31:03He's seen Damian Lillard
31:04A long time in this league
31:06He knows the scouting report
31:08Year 18 for DeRozan
31:10Year 16 for Damian Lillard
31:14Nine-time All-Star
31:16Seven-time All-NBA
31:24The lead was as many as 14
31:26At one point for the Nuggets
31:28It's been cut to seven
31:29Because of a run here
31:31Early second quarter
31:32For the Blazers
31:35This run that's taking place
31:37To start the second quarter
31:38Portland's gotten to the
31:39Free-throw line a couple times
31:40And that's how they find
31:41Find their rhythm
31:42When they're having
31:42Difficulty scoring
31:43Or their three ball isn't falling
31:45They get to the cherry stripe
31:46And that's how they
31:47Get themselves going
31:53Marvin Bagley for three
31:55Aaron Gordon
31:56The offensive rebound
31:57And a fresh 14 for Denver
32:01A.G. uses a screen
32:03Lillard switches out on him
32:05Four to shoot
32:05Gordon trying to create space
32:08Attacks against Lillard
32:09And it's swept away
32:10Numbers
32:11Lillard's lead
32:12Pass and look out
32:14Sissoko flying through the air
32:16And punches it
32:19Portland's defense
32:20Getting them going
32:21A little bit in this one
32:21The turnovers
32:22And getting to the free-throw line
32:23Denver's got some things
32:25They need to clean up
32:30Scoot, you good, boy?
32:32I'm chilling, bro
32:34Tween, you good?
32:36Good to see you, bro
32:37How you feeling?
32:39How you feeling?
32:40What's up, you good?
32:41I hear you
32:42At elevation
32:45Stay here
32:46Yeah
32:47No, just follow me
32:50Go get DeMar
32:51Go get DeMar
32:56Mr. Polite
32:58Tyus Jones
32:59Asking everybody
32:59How they're doing
33:00How they're doing
33:00I mean, who wouldn't?
33:01Yeah, it's great
33:02I mean, the fact that
33:02He's literally calling actions
33:04As he's walking up the floor
33:06Follow me
33:06Get into it
33:07Go screen for DeMar DeRozan
33:08I mean, that second unit
33:09Had a really good run
33:10With Tyus Jones
33:11Kind of leading it
33:13He takes a seat now
33:16Jamal Murray checks back in
33:17The Nuggets have three starters
33:19Back on the floor
33:19After an all-bench unit
33:21Started this second quarter
33:23He's sitting next to
33:24Nikola Jokic
33:25And the mic can pick up
33:26Neighboring sounds
33:28So it's possible
33:30Let's hope
33:30That we get a little tidbit
33:32From Jokic himself here
33:39Denver led by as many as
33:4014 late first quarter
33:46Gordon, 15 foot
33:47Fall away
33:48Jumper rattles through
33:50Good patience
33:51Good poise
33:52As the shot clock
33:52Is winding down
33:53Aaron Gordon
33:54Just elevates over his defender
33:55First two points of the night
33:57For Aaron Gordon
33:59Who's averaging about 15 a game
34:01Over the last two
34:03Obdia
34:04Flips the pass back
34:05To a wide open
34:06Donovan Klingen
34:07Ricochets off the rim
34:08And Aaron Gordon
34:09The rebound
34:18An 11 point first quarter
34:20For Jamal Murray
34:20After 39 on Friday night
34:22In Phoenix
34:23Steps back
34:24Hits again
34:25He is unconscious
34:28Get out of here with that
34:30I mean, that action
34:31Where he's getting to
34:32Around multiple defenders
34:34And screens
34:34Obdia can't answer
34:36Sissoko
34:37Taps the rebound
34:38Out to Damian Lillard
34:42Shot clock already under 10
34:44On the reset
34:46Klingen spits it out
34:47Obdia spaces
34:49And can't hit
34:54Third chance on this trip
34:56For Portland
34:58Obdia takes another
35:00And misses another
35:01Spins all the way
35:02Around the rim
35:03And out
35:07Bagley
35:07To the cup
35:09Drew a lot of contact
35:10Didn't get a whistle
35:11But he still lays it in
35:14Great control
35:15From Marvin Bagley
35:16On his own
35:17Offensive rebound
35:18Finds a better angle
35:19Around Klingen
35:20To lay that one up
35:21And in
35:21David Adelman
35:23Acknowledged that being
35:23The backup for Nikola Jokic
35:25Which may be one of the most
35:26Frustrating jobs
35:26Of the NBA
35:27Because no matter
35:27How well you play
35:29You're coming out
35:29At one point
35:30But he said
35:31Marvin Bagley
35:32Has handled it perfectly
35:33And has made the most
35:34Of every minute
35:35He's been on the floor
35:40Kling gets a foul
35:41Running back
35:41In transition
35:42I believe
35:42But I want to show you
35:43Jamal Murray
35:44Working
35:45Creating the space
35:46The step back
35:47That he creates
35:48The ability
35:49To get that
35:50Three point look off
35:50That was after
35:51After running past
35:52Two screens
35:53Two
35:53Working within
35:54The Nuggets
35:55Offense
35:55And then Bagley
35:55Just absolutely
35:56Being a workhorse
35:57Underneath
35:58Being physical
35:58Working around
35:59Klinging
36:00To carve out
36:00Room
36:01To get that
36:01Shot off
36:05Fourteen
36:05For Jamal Murray
36:09He's already
36:10Had games
36:10Of eight
36:11Made threes
36:12Seven
36:12Made threes
36:13Five
36:14Made threes
36:15Through the first
36:15Five games
36:16Of the season
36:16And this is
36:21What they end up
36:21Getting Klingen
36:22And Bagley
36:23Tangled up
36:23And Klingen
36:24Yanking
36:25On the jersey
36:25At the shoulder
36:26Of Marvin Bagley
36:33So you've got
36:34Six minutes
36:36And thirty-six seconds
36:37In the bonus
36:38Here in the second quarter
36:39So Denver
36:39Has to stay aggressive
36:40They were very aggressive
36:42To start this game
36:43Too
36:44From the free throw line
36:45Ten of twelve
36:48Twelve free throws
36:49In the first quarter
36:49So can they keep
36:50Building on that
36:51And drawing
36:52Those fouls
36:53From Portland
36:54A one of two
36:55Trip here
36:55For Marvin Bagley
36:58An 8-0 run
36:59For the Nuggets
37:00Since David Adelman
37:01Took a timeout
37:02Just a couple
37:02Minutes ago
37:03Henderson
37:04One more to the corner
37:05Through Holiday
37:06Bounces into Klingen
37:07Left it short
37:09Christian Brown
37:10Tracks it down
37:11Saves it in
37:12Good hustle
37:13From CB
37:18Murray
37:19Is fouled
37:20But they say
37:21Before the shot
37:22It is on the floor
37:26You mentioned some of the
37:27Corrections that the
37:28Nuggets have made
37:29Noah
37:29And I think
37:30The rebounding
37:31Has to be
37:32Part of what
37:33They're looking at
37:33Here's the foul
37:34Jamal Murray
37:35Coming off that
37:35Marvin Bagley
37:36Screen
37:36Drawing the contact
37:37And again
37:37He's been playing
37:38So well
37:38That they're trying
37:39To leave
37:40No space
37:40No room
37:41For Jamal Murray
37:42To get shots off
37:42But defensively
37:44Their actual defense
37:46Denver's
37:46Is pretty solid
37:47The rebounding
37:48Needs to clean up
37:49And then you don't
37:50Foul
37:51No personnel
37:52And be more disciplined
37:53In that regard
37:54But the actual defense
37:55Has been pretty solid
37:56So far
37:57And specifically
37:58The first shot defense
37:59It's that rebounding
38:00You're talking about
38:00Which has led to
38:01Some second chance
38:02Opportunities
38:02Exactly right
38:06But those
38:07Both feel like
38:08Very manageable areas
38:09To improve
38:10If you're Denver
38:12This is the first
38:1310-0 run
38:14Of the season
38:14For the Nuggets
38:15It has expanded
38:16The lead back
38:17Out to 14
38:18Which matches
38:19The largest of the game
38:20And Klingen
38:20Puts an end to that
38:21Immediately
38:22With a two-hand finish
38:39DeRozan
38:40Circles in the paint
38:41Spins
38:42And is fouled hard
38:43By Scoot Henderson
38:45The way that
38:46Marvin Bagley
38:47Is playing in this game
38:48The screening
38:48That he's
38:51Enforcing offensively
38:52The rebounding
38:52It gave Nicole Jokic
38:54An extended period
38:55Of rest
38:55I feel like
38:56Usually we see him
38:56A little bit earlier
38:57In the second quarter
38:59He's checking
38:59Into the game
38:59Right now
39:01DeMar DeRozan
39:02Drawing that foul
39:05And not that
39:06It was a crazy
39:07Long amount
39:07At the end
39:08Of the first quarter
39:08But he even got
39:09About 40 seconds
39:10At the end
39:10Of the first quarter
39:11Any second
39:12Is beneficial
39:13When it comes
39:14To Nicole Jokic
39:15You take any
39:17And all of it
39:17He comes back in
39:19Marvin Bagley
39:21Takes a seat
39:21After some
39:22Incredibly productive
39:23Minutes
39:24In the backup
39:25Five spot
39:29Perfect trip
39:30For DeMar DeRozan
39:43Drew Holiday spins
39:45Against Cam Johnson
39:46Leans in
39:47And banks it through
39:48Really crafty
39:49From Drew Holiday
39:50And just a good shot
39:52Fake to get Cam Johnson
39:53On his toes
39:54Finishing through
39:54The contact there
39:56First bucket of the night
39:58For Drew Holiday
40:06Murray defended
40:06By Holiday
40:07With a jab
40:08Creates space
40:08But left
40:09To three short
40:17Camara
40:18Curls off the screen
40:19And sticks it
40:20And that was only
40:21A matter of time
40:22With how Camara
40:23Has been shooting
40:24The threes
40:24Two of six
40:25In this game
40:26So far
40:26But he's fifth
40:27In three-pointers
40:28Made per game
40:29In the NBA
40:29Right now
40:30He has been on a heater
40:30To start this season
40:31Shooting it at 51%
40:33For the first five games
40:35As well
40:36Cam Johnson
40:37Fall away
40:38On the fadeaway jumper
40:39At the midrange
40:40Won't go
40:41It's a good read
40:42And a good look
40:43For Cam Johnson
40:44Henderson
40:45Transition
40:45Look for three
40:46Splashes it down
40:52Four straight made shots
40:54For the Blazers
40:55On an 8-0 run
40:56Themselves
40:57To cut the deficit
40:58Down to six
41:02Jokic
41:27Jokic
41:28Always a step ahead
41:30Always a step ahead
41:32If you're injured
41:33No attorney
41:34Is more qualified
41:35To know
41:35And speak
41:36About your injuries
41:36Than the doctor
41:37Who's also a lawyer
41:38Dr. Joseph Ramos
41:41Ramoslaw.com
41:45Christian Brown
41:46Back into the game
41:46All five starters
41:47On the floor
41:48With just over
41:49Four to go
41:49Before halftime
41:50As a pair
41:51Of Jokic
41:52Three throws
41:52Push the lead
41:53To eight
41:59Klinging left alone
42:01And he makes
42:02The Nuggets pick
42:04Now Portland's
42:05Getting going
42:05From three a little bit
42:06So have to make sure
42:07You're getting out
42:08And contesting
42:09Contesting shooters
42:10They're too good
42:11From the three point line
42:11Make them put the ball
42:12On the floor
42:12And be ready to defend
42:13After just two of ten
42:15In the first quarter
42:16Portland four of ten
42:17From three
42:17This quarter
42:18And Jokic
42:19Has the midrange jumper
42:30Wide open
42:31Youngblood for three
42:32Got another
42:33David Adelman
42:34Takes a timeout
42:35After Portland
42:36Has started to catch fire
42:37From distance
42:39Micah Norrie's team
42:41Down as many as 14
42:42Ating a healthier
42:43Tomorrow
42:46The lead was once
42:4714 for the
42:49Denver Nuggets
42:49But a 14-4 run
42:51For Portland
42:53Has cut the Blazers
42:54Deficit down to four
42:55In the final three
42:56And a half
42:56Before halftime
42:57Thanks to them
42:58Catching fire
42:59Behind the three point
43:00Yeah, look, they're too good
43:02They're gonna make some shots
43:03You have to make them
43:04Make contested shots
43:05Fly around defensively
43:07And make everyone
43:07A difficult one
43:09Blazers started
43:10Three of 17
43:11From three
43:12They've hit their last
43:13Four
43:14Jokic
43:15Jokic doesn't have the answer
43:16Drew Holiday
43:16Snacks the rebounds
43:22Chance for the Blazers
43:23To cut it
43:24To one possession
43:27Holiday gets into the heart
43:29Of the paint
43:29And falls away
43:30And hits
43:30I mean, that's a tough shot
43:31You want to make them
43:32Make shots like that
43:33Jamal Murray
43:34Cutting off the paint
43:35For Holiday
43:35Making him shoot
43:36A fadeaway
43:41Last ten points
43:42Have all been scored
43:43By the Blazers
43:44Nuggets offense
43:45Trying to put an end
43:46Into that here
43:46With Jokic
43:47Battling against Klingon
43:48And he got the bounce
43:51You get Nicole Jokic
43:53Deep in the paint
43:53In a one-on-one scenario
43:55And that's exactly
43:57What Denver's offense wants
44:00Party 12
44:01With five rebounds
44:02Tonight
44:02Drew Holiday
44:03The immediate response
44:04And he's had five
44:05Quick points
44:06For Portland
44:12Jokic lobs
44:14Brazil comes down
44:15With it
44:15But then still hammers it
44:19Brown with the steal
44:21Goes right at Youngblood
44:23And he's fouled
44:27The Brazil follow
44:29Does not count
44:30Christian Brown
44:31Goes to the free throw line
44:33When Trevin Brazil
44:34Hangs on the rim
44:35He's like
44:35An inch off the ground
44:36I swear
44:37Great anticipation
44:38Right there
44:38From Christian Brown
44:39Just paying attention
44:40To Portland
44:40Trying to advance the ball
44:42With the pass
44:43Up the floor
44:45Braces for the
44:45To contact
44:46And it was good
44:47On Trevin Brazil
44:48For being there
44:49For the rebound
44:49If Christian Brown
44:50Didn't get the foul
44:51Or didn't get the call
44:51Three first half steals
44:53For Christian Brown
44:54Who ranks sixth
44:56In the NBA
44:56At two and a half
44:57Per game
45:08Trevin Brazil
45:09Getting some minutes
45:09With the starters here
45:12And there are the steal
45:13And there are the steal numbers
45:13Christian Brown
45:14Sixth in the NBA
45:16Zion Williamson
45:17We've already seen
45:18Twice this year
45:19He leads the way
45:20With over three
45:21And it's a one for two
45:21Trip for CB
45:26Timeout
45:27Bringing it up the court
45:29Or no timeout
45:30Excuse me
45:32Timeout taken by Portland
45:34Final 2-0-1
45:35Before halftime
45:44Micah Nori
45:45The new head coach
45:46Of the Portland Trailblazers
45:47Familiar face
45:48In the city of Denver
45:49And I would say
45:51A close personal friend
45:52Of Nicole Jokic
45:54The two of them
45:54Go way back
45:56All the way back
45:56To Summer League
46:01He'll send me text messages
46:03Of Forrest Gump
46:03Just running cross country
46:05Said this was me
46:05In Summer League
46:06And then he would get upset
46:08Because we had
46:09Yousef Nurkic
46:10And Nikola Jokic
46:11So I'm drawing the board
46:12And I'd have J and N
46:13And N and J
46:14And he'd be like
46:15I'm Nikola
46:16I'm Nikola
46:17And the only way
46:18That he can
46:19But I always tell him
46:20That was just motivation
46:21To get him to where he is now
46:22I just wish he'd call
46:23And say thank you
46:24Every now and again
46:26That was our Toyota talk
46:28And I asked Mike and Nori
46:29Before the game
46:30Is it different preparing
46:31For Nikola Jokic
46:32As a head coach now
46:33As opposed to an assistant coach
46:34And he said no not really
46:36I'm very familiar
46:37With his game
46:38In pretty much every aspect
46:39But he said
46:39What is so great
46:40About Nikola Jokic
46:41Is you know
46:42What he's going to do
46:43When you do
46:44What you're going to do
46:45So it's this constant game
46:47Of chess in a way
46:49Of well he's probably
46:50Going to do this
46:51If we cover him this way
46:52So how do we adapt
46:54And adjust to that
46:55And again
46:56Jokic has seen every coverage
46:57The way that Mike and Nori
46:59Talked about defending him
47:00Was just giving him
47:00A bunch of different looks
47:01And making him try and work
47:02Has he gotten his thank you
47:03Yet do you think
47:04I don't know
47:05I know they still talk
47:07And text often
47:09Christian Brown
47:09Called for a foul here
47:12Mike and Nori
47:13Getting the Portland Trailblazers
47:14Off to a great start
47:16Four and one
47:17The only loss they've had
47:18This season
47:19Coming against
47:20The only undefeated team
47:21Left in the league
47:22Which we all knew
47:23That would be
47:23The Memphis Grizzlies
47:27Did we
47:29I couldn't let it
47:30I couldn't let it lie
47:33Yes short on the three
47:45Brown hops to the paint
47:46Cross court to Cam Johnson
47:48Buries the three
47:57Cam's first three of the night
47:59Right back is Drew Holiday
48:01He gets a scoop and score
48:04The containing defensively
48:06It's not an easy task
48:07It's much easier for me
48:08To sit here and say
48:09That that's what needs to happen
48:10But be able to guard one on one
48:12Good pass from Jokic
48:14And a reverse finish
48:15From Cam Johnson
48:16Who's trying to argue
48:17He should have had three
48:19He's got a point
48:29Obvious steps through
48:30Against Cam Johnson
48:31Who gets called for a foul
48:33On this end
48:34After not getting the call
48:35On the other end
48:37He did however get a three
48:38From a great offensive possession
48:40For Denver
48:41Jamal Murray
48:42So much attention drawn to him
48:43Christian Brown attacking
48:45Out of that double team
48:46From Jamal
48:47Finding the paint
48:48And finding Cam Johnson
48:49In the corner
48:51Excellent offense
48:52Excellent execution
48:53And you're
48:54Passing up a good shot
48:55For a great shot
48:59Cam Johnson has scored
49:00The last five
49:01On back-to-back possessions
49:02For the Nuggets
49:05Second game back
49:06From injury
49:06Twelve points
49:09Unfortunately
49:09Nine rebounds
49:10Officially after they
49:11Had him at a double-double
49:12And took one away from him
49:14He did tell me though
49:15When I was asking about that
49:16That rebounding
49:16Is a point of emphasis
49:17For him this year
49:18He thought he
49:19Underperformed
49:20In that regard
49:20Last year for the Nuggets
49:21So he's trying to be
49:22Much more active
49:23On the boards
49:26PNC Bank
49:27Halftime report
49:28Is coming up
49:29In under a minute
49:30Dick Lombardi
49:31Bill hands up
49:32Jason Richardson
49:35Jamal Murray
49:36Gets right by Lillard
49:37And flushes it
49:40What a read
49:41After Lillard
49:41Was so physical
49:42With Murray
49:43At half court
49:43Murray came off
49:44That screen
49:45So tightly
49:45No hesitation
49:46All the way
49:47To the hope
49:47Lillard trying to get it back
49:49He can't
49:50And it was last touched
49:51By Williams
49:52Possession
49:53Heads back to Denver
50:058 seconds
50:06The difference
50:06Game clock
50:07And shot clock
50:08To wind down
50:08The first half
50:12Murray has a game
50:14High 18
50:14He goes with
50:158 on the clock
50:17Murray wrestles
50:18Into the paint
50:19And he heads
50:20To the free throw line
50:23Murray saying
50:24He feels that
50:25From Damian Lillard
50:25Every single possession
50:26Comes off
50:28Damian Lillard
50:29Trying to go under
50:30That screen
50:30But because
50:31Jamal Murray
50:31Knows the way
50:32That he's been defending
50:33Doesn't even hesitate
50:34To look for Jokic
50:35As a roller
50:36Understands he will have
50:37A clear pathway
50:38All the way
50:39To the hoop
50:42Look at the efficiency
50:43From Jamal
50:44To get into
50:44The free throw line
50:45Seven times
50:48His eighth
50:49And ninth
50:49Free throws
50:50Of the night
50:50Already coming
50:52This next one
50:53Is about to be
50:54The 26th
50:55Free throw
50:55Attempt
50:56Of the first
50:56Half
50:57For Denver
50:57Which is the
50:58Most in a
50:59First half
51:00In eight
51:01Years
51:01Well the Nuggets
51:03Average 27
51:04Free throw
51:05Attempts
51:05A game
51:06To start
51:07The season
51:07The game
51:08A game
