Three buckets from DeAndre Jordan around the rim and transition dunk from Jeff Green and the Nuggets lead by 4 five minutes in. Looks like Green limped back to the bench after a timeout. – 7:53 PM

DeAndre Jordan, like everyone predicted, pacing the #Nuggets with 6 points, 3 rebounds and a steal five minutes into this one. Denver up 12-8. – 7:52 PM

Jordan was clowning around, resting his head on Doncic’s shoulder during Caldwell-Pope’s shoulder, and I couldn’t help but think: Hope Jordan doesn’t have COVID, given that several key Nuggets already have it. – 7:48 PM

Couple things: #Nuggets are playing a lot more physical/aggressive with Luka thus far tonight. Malone also said their goal (obviously) was to attack him defensively and maybe get him in foul trouble. He already picked up one. – 7:46 PM

Through the first three minutes, the Nuggets are absolutely selling out to protect the paint. Everyone is collapsing, and it’s leading to some wide open shooters.
At some point, those are going to drop for the Mavs. – 7:46 PM

Mavs and Nuggets about to tip off on BSSW. Mavs won the opener of this two game series 127-99 on Friday. The Mavs shot 73.3% on 2pters in the game. The 3rd best 2pt FG% in a game in team history. Denver still without Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon. – 7:37 PM

How’s my NFL Sunday going? Cashed on the Cowboys, lost bigger play on the OVER 48.5. Dallas scored 40. Sometimes it’s not your season and that’s definitely been the case for me with the shield in 2022. We’ll continue to work. – 7:30 PM

Looking forward to seeing what MPJ does today. A lot of pressure on him. Not reasonable to ask him to develop into a stat level iso scorer on the fly, but I’d like to see him be patient when he gets the ball, first and foremost. – 7:15 PM

Michael Malone, when asked about Vlatko Cancar, praised his readiness and ability to step in and succeed on Friday.
“You look for silver linings when you get your ass kicked, so you can go to bed at 4 o’ clock in the morning instead of 6 a.m.”

Nuggets coach Michael Malone said the players had a team dinner last night. While they were there, the coaches went out to Chicken and Pickle (pickleball — the same place they went during an OKC trip last year). – 6:12 PM

My main first half takeaway with some pics included: #Vikings need to root for Dallas being on the other side of the NFC playoff bracket. If need to see them in January, make it the NFC Championship Game. pic.twitter.com/qxeTV5htB0 – 5:58 PM

Aaron Gordon (questionable due to a non-Covid illness) isn’t in Dallas for tonight’s game, I’m told.
Once again, #Nuggets will be down Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and Gordon. – 5:45 PM

VCU is 5-22 from the field with 11 turnovers in the opening 16 mins against Memphis. I think Penny Hardaway got his message across about the defense. – 5:37 PM

When Nikola Jokić misses today’s game against the Dallas Mavericks, it will be just the 31st missed game of his eight year career.
The Nuggets are 11-19 in those games. – 4:10 PM

The #Nuggets will change some things in how they guard Dallas star Luka Doncic tonight. I expect more blitzing to get the ball out of his hands, among other things. Here’s a detailed look at what worked and didn’t work on Friday as the Nuggets try and corral him today. pic.twitter.com/9nXCk0nSaC – 3:32 PM
