The difference between this season and last season is night and day. Really excited to watch this team keep growing.
Please do not pick up just one stat per minute. Foul problem is there for most of defenders in the team. Diilion, Jabari, Tari, Tate all has 4+ fouls per 36 min.
Dillion and Jabari in top 20 for totals.

The nuggets are 10-4 in games not against the Rockets. I'm not discounting beat down wins over them.
Jalen Green is not a reliable player. Rockets just do not have the luxury to let this guy have so many wasted possessions. I'd give him credit until the all-star break.
Love the analysis!!
I guarantee they WONT beat them in a playoff series when when you're playing for an NBA ring NBA title and everybody's healthy on Denver like they were last year I would take Denver in five games I would give Houston one win but Denver would shut them down in five games and three of those would be blowouts no question about it when it's time to get serious Denver would not Houston out
