Lol Jeff Green is starting for the #Nuggets, but as you can see, someone here at Gainbridge Fieldhouse got the photo wrong. That’s Danilo Gallinari from Monday’s game against the #Hawks. 😂😂

Michael Malone comments on the turnover issues, saying the Nuggets simply have to be better at avoiding some of the bad turnovers they have.
He acknowledged that some of the turnovers are because they have a high number of passes, but that they still need to clean it up. – 5:34 PM

Rick Carlisle on Nikola Jokic: “He’s reinvented the center position on certain levels.”
“He’s a beast of a player. He’s a killer. Looks like a nice guy, but as a competitor he’s a killer.” – 5:27 PM

Good to catch up with former Pacers asst Popeye Jones, who’s in year 1 with the Nuggets. He’s doing well, enjoying Denver and working with the likely back-to-back MVP Nikola Jokic.
He also filled in as interim head coach when omicron hit the league. Special to see him celebrated – 5:24 PM

Thought this was a really good piece from @TommyKnow303 on how the Nuggets can finish the year strong.
Mentions the Nuggets are averaging the 3rd most turnovers in the second half on the season. That’s absurdly high. Need to be more precise than that.
