Tough first quarter for the defending champs they give up 37 points and Trail by 12 and uh that is the most allowed in the first quarter this year let’s see if the Nuggets can get going here just a bit been really sluggish Murray will take another jumper that’s a two-pointer

That’s good what do the Nuggets need to do better here Scott they they got to get moving they they’ve got to get more people involved and and we said this before this year when had struggles it’s everybody just looking at ball here go Portland’s bench outscored the Nuggets

Bench 13-2 that’s been an area of emphasis for the Denver Nuggets this season trying to figure out the bench with the absence of Jeff Green and Bruce Brown and ish Smith Kamar no B is tip nug trying to as they’re always saying okay Jamal you go do this for us and

They got to have somebody else really I think step up Michael in there now Reggie Jackson back out Michael Malone has been trying to stagger some start with the B now Murray’s got a lane coming in team and why I think I I think really since that New York game you’ve seen

More and more teams really really focus defensively on Jamal Murray reath will set the pick and he threw it away now Murray can to dunk it yeah he SC back oh an errant pass by the Blazers and the is playing catch up Trail by seven top of the second [Applause]

Quarter Mar trying to get by Christian Brown gath nearly traveled scooped Baseline CH clock running down and the jumper is good see I do it almost a steal by Christian Brown but but by not getting it and running pass now allows Kamar to just step up and get that little mid-range

Jumper Kamar with a rebound long range and Portland behind walk Reef he he two for two he don’t very often get below that free throw line he he’s been coming in and transition stopping at the top of the key you got to know that if you’re defending late in the Olympics in

20120 for Australia won a bronze medal now quarter that’s short nuggets are just off key here in the first half so far trailing by 12 Henderson no of the night so far and a grim Michael Malone at the moment High post Peyton Watson Watson drops it in Watson they have high

Wide open look comes up an air ball sure that’s Walker’s strength alord throws it down now the Nuggets uh getting a little Mojo here statistically this has been the Nugget’s worst defensive quarter in 29th in the leag defensive rating in the second quarter positive in one three and

Four now Simon Murray switches on to [Applause] him Simons and blocked by Murray he timed that perfect Porter’s got it ahead to Christian Brown give it to Porter he sets he fires no good and the lead remains eight [Applause] is switching Kamar nearly traveled Henderson got a wide open look he missed

It and on the weak side Peyton Watson with the rebound good rebound for Peyton wats something he continues to grow out too Murray long range no good Christian Brown Christian Brown making himself known a couple rebounds three points nuggets doubling up the Blazer so far here in the second quarter

14-7 Vic Lombard and Scott Hastings I’m Chris Marlo glad you’re with us CL Trailblazers and the Denver Nuggets five to shoot trying to draw a f Nice Shot Anthony Simons with a one-hander from the Baseline now pretty good defense and sometimes and that’s a bad thing when

You you you get behind right you can have great defensive series and they still score on kic had eight points in his first stint over to Christian Brown on the dribble Drive shot is no good tip is no good Simons has it Simons averages 23 points a game he is the leading scorer

For the Nuggets didn’t play much with the team last season but stayed with the team All Summer Long got in great shape and is averaging 11 points off the game filled in for Murray admirably when Murray was out and that jumper from the corner is nothing but net for matis thy [Applause]

Ball you’re in bonus this is where you think Joker down the block maybe 4942 is our score Portland with a lead Reggie Jackson jic has the 15 foot he’ll take it and drop it home one of the great mid-range shooters in the NBA is Nicole double figures with
