Why Nikola Jokic Could Have His Best Playoff Run Yet | DNVR Nuggets Podcast Live
Nikola Jokic has had some of the league’s best playoff runs. The 3x MVP has given us 50 point games, triple-doubles, and even a 30-20-20 game in the playoffs. But Adam Mares of DNVR thinks that the table is set for Jokic to reach an even higher level than ever before. Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon will have a lot of heavy lifting in round one. Will Spencer Jones be back in time? And what about predictions for the rest of the NBA Playoffs? The DNVR Nuggets podcast crew breaks it all down.

I’m planning on flying to mexico from costa rica! Would be great getting to know you guys
I can't wait for tomorrow, I'm very excited about these playoffs, Nuggets despite not getting to the WCFs had an entertaining playoff run, but we knew the bench was lacking. That's something the Nuggets have for the first time since the championship season in 2023 is a bench. I think this team can go really far this year. Getting the Wolves is a great start to correct that wrong from 2024 and get the Wolves without NAW on up outta here and send Antman to Atlanta.
what is everybody
If Spencer Jones AND Pwat will not be available tmr, I think Adelman needs to play Zeke against this Wolves team. Zeke can at least matchup with the physicality from the Wolves players. One of the mistakes that Malone did in 2024 was not playing Zeke and PWat at all against the Wolves. Don’t make the same mistakes again……….
I live and Im from Denver but my family is lives in Mexico City we’re def gonna be in there like swim wear 🙏🏾🙏🏾 GO NUGGETS AND BRONCOS
I want Zeke to get some burn for like 5-10 minutes.
It makes no sense that we’re missing our most physical bench players against such a physical team. It really feels cursed. What’s next, if we pass to the 2nd round, Gordon gets hurt again and no one is there to guard Wembanyama? Just unbelievably unlucky and dumb. Come on Spencer, PWat play at least 15 minutes per game.
Not all of Mexico is cartel Harrison. Also, Mexico City is one of the safest big cities in the world
I would definitely want to go to a Mexico game
Mvp mvp mvp
"SGA?"… good one, Harrison. LOL
Nos vemos en México!!!
Will there be a watchalong for all the playoffs?
If Spence and PWat are out than this needs to be a Zeke series. He's athletic and strong enough to have utility in this series and may be our best option to inject size versatility into our D
I have a slightly different Jokic take: While I agree that his ceiling is higher I just don't see the consistency that you guys see. I think his floor is also lower (perhaps because of the injury) and his overall play is a tick lower than it has been over the last two years. Excited to see though how long he can stay in fifth gear these playoffs! Because if he can play at his ceiling then yeah, we're in for a historic run.
Mexico City is a great place to go visit. Amazing food and friendly people – and it’s much safer than you think. Millions of Americans have retired in Mexico for a reason
Poor guy Adam forced to talk about Jokic when he has SGA for MVP 😔
looks like ORL tanked for the DET match up
