A very dominant win by the Nuggets highlighted by Jokicβs triple double (10 on the season) and Peyton Watsonβs 18 off the bench. The Nuggets defensively were especially great forcing a lot of turnovers and getting to the free throw line. Hope these are the calls Jokic will start getting. No reason he shouldnβt get 10 free throw attempts in the regular season.

STAY OUT OF HOSPITALS. WATCH OUT FOR WHAT THEY DO IN HOSPITALS.
Joker had an amazing game
Nice spin move by Jokic on the fast break to avoid a steal.

Man, every team is coming at the nuggets with effort since they are the defending champs and the nuggets are still looking like they could face the lakers again in the conference finals.
I wish NBA showed more nice blocks and interceptions. Those are even more impressive than baskets.
We gotta start a spoiler blocker, I'm tired of coming into a hilight recap of a game I didn't see and the top comment already spoils who won…
@8:32 commentator was on queue when he said βThe Jayhawk!β
360p?????? what kinda trash is this? I want more then 6 pixels please
Nuggets still playing like a defending champion. Letβs just just hope everyone can stay healthy come playoff time
Nobody is gonna talk about that dunk by Braun? That shit was wild
The Denver Nuggets are 17-9π΅π‘βͺοΈπ
Too many teams are hogging the top guys
That Braun dunk on the break was savage.
8:39 great dunk
4:26 MPJ passed the ball
Big credit to Malone for playing rookies and young guys serious minutes to get em grown so they can be playoff difference makers. Nice to see Jokic actually get some calls and some free throw attempts from the ridiculous NBA officials that have never given him respect or the benefit of the doubt in spite of being a 2 time MVP and a champion and finals MVP and wrecking a ton of all time NBA records. You wonder what kind of small lives and resentment it would take for these clown officials to not give this guy his fair due.

Denver getting it in
That cut Porter makes at 0:22 is absolutely genius. The entire play is genius. The defenders were switching and Jokic+Porter anticipated this and took advantage of it for an easy basket. Brilliant.
Nuggets is a real defending champ and might get a back to back championship
Braun, dunk of the month.π―π¬
8:35. yer welcome
The defending champions in both the NFL and NBA are looking to repeat with the noise theyβre making this year!!
The bench reaction at 8:39 is priceless π
They need to be healthy, I'm waiting for Nuggets vs Philly, Nuggets vs BOS, Nuggets vs MIL.
8:39 LeBraun at it again
That bounce pass from Jokic to Murray was downright paranormal. π
8:36 π
Bruh that dunk reminded me of Jr Smith dunk on the spurs while on a fast break
This had all the makings of a big win by the Nuggets and they came through. Games like these have been much closer than they should be this season. The nuggets always seem to lose focus and drive. But tonight they came through. No disrespect to the Nets, but game 2 of a road road back to back, at 5280, and after an emotional win, the Nets were due for an uninspiring game.
Brooklyn Turnovers
some of the JokiΔ passes are just unreal.
