The old guys DeAndre Jordan and Westbrook showed the young guys what hustling on defense can do. Great game by Jamal Murray on both ends, buying into the hustle. We need Jamal to lead like that. He's still coming back into shape from injuries. Hope he's mentally understanding winning is the best medicine.
Russ is going to be great for Jamal..... Hopefully Jamal uses Russ' presence as inspiration to go hard and fast all game long. I said it when The Nuggets added Russ, "if Jokic, Murray, and Russ start together, it's going to be hard to beat The Nuggets..." The Jokic, Gordon, MPJ, Murray, and Russ five man group is going to be a top offensive rating five man group and probably a very high overall net rating group... With CB and Watson as dedensive super subs, Murray and Gordon can come out at the 5:00 min mark so they can come in play next to Jokic, MPJ, and Russ. When Murray and Gordon return, they can also be on the floor with CB and Watson. Coach Malone can finish the 1st qtr with Jokic, Gordon, Watson, CB, and Murray. Jordan can give Jokic a rest to start the 2nd qtr and maybe Strawther gives Watson a breather. One adjustment i would like to see is Jokic leaving the floor after 10 mins(instead of playing the full 12 mins of the 1st qtr) and AG playing small ball five to end the 1st qtr for 2 mins. Ideally that unit would be: Gordon, Watson, MPJ, CB, and Murray. With this minor adjustment, Jokic can come back into games before the 7:00 mark in the 2nd and 4th qtrs. This also reduces some wear and tear on Jordan's knees. I would still like to see The Nuggets get a quality veteran defensive wing but other than that i like how things are shaping up!
Next time Nuggets destroy LeBlames, I will write that it's all Westbrook's fault that the Lakers lost, just like LeBum fanboys were blaming Westbrook in the past.
my ONLY wish this season.. Westbrook to get his only missing piece. CHAMPIONSHIP RING... Now it's obvious Wesrbrook a better all around player than Harden with strong defense and will to WIN
Clippers probably going to blow up the team beginning before trade deadline. I give them credit for trying. The nutrition and training focus needs to be more serious is what I'd say just guessing looking back how they fell so far short of their potential.
Hopefuly these games without Jokic will help the other guys to start to believe in themselves. The more you utilize the bench during the regular season, the more chance you have in playoffs.
If made from inside the 3 pt line, a field goal is worth 2 pts, from beyond the 3 pt line it´s worth 3 pts, a field goal from beyond your side of the straight line separating the 2 halves of the field, shouldn't that be a 4 pts worth shot? And if you a make field goal from inside your own 3 pt line, shouldn't that be worth 5 pts? And I would add that any field goal made the last 60 seconds is worth 1 extra pt. I would go ever crazier and add a extra exciting rule that any field goal made in the last 60 seconds by a bench player who has until that moment played 0 minutes, any field goal by him is worth 1 extra pt!!! So to resume, here´s an example of the most crazy ending: a player enters the court from the bench and has played 0 minutes until the moment he enters to play the last 60 seconds, makes a field goal from inside his own 3 pt line: that goal would be worth: - 3 pts because from outside the 3 pt line of the other team, - + 1 because from behind the straight line in the middle of the court separating the two halfs, - + 1 because from inside his own 3 pt line, - + 1 because within the last 60 seconds, - + 1 because made by a bench player who had played 0 seconds when he entered in the last 60 seconds. That´s a field goal worth 7 pts! Wouldn't that be more exciting to watch?
I love seeing DJ on the court. One of my favorite players
ME TOO...GREETINGS FROM PUERTO RICO MY FRIEND
@ much love from Serbia
@АлександарРајић FROM PUERTO RICO 🇵🇷...WE LOVE JOKIC...SUCH A GREAT PLAYER...BETTER HUMAN BEING...YOU ALL MUST BE REALLY PROUD ABOUT HIM...
@@fsm5184 Yes Sir, we sure are. He's the reason I'm watching Nuggets. Also, proud of the best tennis player that ever lived, Novak Djokovic
@АлександарРајић NOVAK IS THE BEST TENNIS PLAYER I EVER SEEN...AND SUCH A GREAT GUY TOO...

SO HAPPY TO SEE WESTBROOK ENJOYING BASKETBALL AGAIN 🏀

@@cafelatte1124are u a big LeBron fan by any chance?
I love when Russell asks fans to do their jobs, their appreciations! The six man got to do their jobs!
not bad for an NBA game.
here on the balkans crowd is so loud that the players cant hear their coach.
nba crowd is boring clown show
nba might have the most boring fans of all sport, none of the team have their own unique chant, it's literally just "defense" and "MVP" lol
They destroyed Clippers without Jokic. well played guys
jokic is not even important for nuggets lol
@@bangbuddy5597what the hell are you on?????
Without gordon or jokic, this is good they need to learn to not rely on those guys so much
@@bangbuddy5597most obvious rage bait of all time
@@johnfisher4262 hahaahaha im the biggest joker fan and i live like 50km from where he was born im just hardcore trolling
all players working very well in defense and offense. That's a very very good work coach
cool seeing the OGs (russ and deandre) on the court
Nice to see Saric getting some minutes. He played very well, good offensive rebounds, some assists and couple of tough buckets too.
Weird seeing point guards doing Jokic’ role.
That was a feel-good win and knocks down the non-Jokic minute stat a bit!
Signature win by the Nuggets beating a talented Clippers team without Jokic and Gordon
If the team can keep this energy when Jokic comes back
The ring is more than possible
Russ himself is the greatest steal by the Nuggets
Would be nice if you put a SCOREBOARD AT THE END
Great job NUGGETS I'm a believer in the process!!!
Go russ
Where?
@@s-popusic Russland habe ich verstanden.
Jokic may not get to start when he gets back.
Jokic 6 th man of the year
LMFAO
@@raiden2782 MVP is overrated. He needs 6th man + dunk contest winner.
my ONLY wish this season.. Westbrook to get his only missing piece. CHAMPIONSHIP RING... Now it's obvious Wesrbrook a better all around player than Harden with strong defense and will to WIN
Jokic going to need to put up a historic performance for that to happen okc is too good
And Cavaliers too...
go go Rastko Vestbruković
Jokic did not play but we got to see another Serbian, DeAndre Jordanovic.
bravisimo
When nuggets play defence they r good
Good job guys👏🏻, very good teamwork💪🏻, finally Jokič can take the break😊
I *love* the new uniforms. They are CLASSIC.
great team win!
Deandre Jordan career revived!
Proud works!! They proved they aren't trash team without Jokic just have to push harder ♥️♥️
Nuggets really swap Reggie for Russ... what an offseason steal for them.
Wow what a game 🎉🎉🎉❤
It reminds me of the game destroyed the Clippers without Joker, Murray and Gordon last season
Murray stepping up in Jokers abscence
LETS GOOOOO WESTBROOK
Šarić was 👍🏿
Let's get the championship 🏆💍
HIS NAME IS WESTBROOK 😤
1.We NEED stats after the game
2. Kindly post highlights earlier, possibly the same day the games are played.
DON'T BLAME JOKIC FOR NOT PLAYING HELL HE'S PROBABLY HURTING FROM CARRYING THE TEAM AND ABOUT TIME THE NUGGETS START EARNING THEIR MONEY
Russ treba zvati Jokica za KUMA!!!
I like how finally jamal locked it
Russ will likely have a new life soon after signing with the Denver Nuggets. Ring will likely be there soon.
Russel has been hassling on the paint of offensive rebounds. He aint stat padder. He is just a real b-ball guy
one minute in - looks like a high school game.
fire caused clippers to lose so sad for them to stay in the game
Clippers probably going to blow up the team beginning before trade deadline. I give them credit for trying. The nutrition and training focus needs to be more serious is what I'd say just guessing looking back how they fell so far short of their potential.

...great ...they are winning without Joker
J.Degre the GOAT
Jokić is not playing ???? WHERE ARE YOU JAMAL ??? Or shell I say One-Leg Murray ??? It's good they win without of Jok
They don't need Joker
I DONT CARE IF THEY WIN. TRADE MURRAY AND MPJ. NOT TOMORROW. TODAY
DJoker
Julian's shot is too pretty
much better without jokic
Sharkić
If harden get small teams he will be shooting 3 anyhow but he meet big team I don't know how he can't shoot.he will never win championship

- + 1 because within the last 60 seconds,
- + 1 because made by a bench player who had played 0 seconds when he entered in the last 60 seconds.
That´s a field goal worth 7 pts! Wouldn't that be more exciting to watch?
The Nuggets can win without Jokic.
See, he's overrated 😅
Bench C.Braun...!!!!
He's not agresif.
He only care for individual statistik.
33,5 minute for 13,9 PPG - 4,7 RPG - 2,2 APG........
Oh My Ghost 🤦🤦🤦🤦
