The Denver Nuggets Scare Me

- The Denver Nuggets vs Boston Celtics last night was electric, and we got to see a potential NBA Finals preview between two of the best teams in the entire NBA. Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray are of course an unstoppable force, but we got to see the full breadth of the Denver Nuggets when firing on cylinders, with guys like Aaron Gordon and Peyton Watson making major contributions.
The Celtics didn't play bad, but sometimes when you're a team like the Denver Nuggets, there's only so much you can do. We saw all the different looks that the Nuggets can throw at you, and even against the Boston Celtics defense, that's a tall order.

Which team has the best chance of beating Denver in a playoff series? 👇
Celtics if they outsscore the nuggets bench.
none
No team that can do it.
Ultimate combo of LAL & REFS 😄
I really hope this is Clippers year but at this point Denver is absolutely scary
This is scary. Everyone in the media talking about Cs having only 29% from 3 and no one talking about Denvers 19% with open looks like this. They wont shoot this bad again.
The scarier thing is that they shot 19% from three and still won by six they’re so good at controlling games that it should terrify the rest of the league
@@Rogue_Centurion see, they shot 59% from 3 against Utah and with no defence won by 20... easy as that and Jokic played only 32 minutes
TLDR: You want to beat the Nuggets in a 7 game series? Good fucking luck.
Watson really looking nice. Happy for him since he wasn't able to contribute as much as Braun during the last run.
I think last time watson couldn't play because they arealdy got a high flying 3&D Jeff Green already, Braun was in the rotation because of his IQ and mentality, Watson will be big this playoffs
@@lucifuge927watson wasn’t ready yet, but he sure looks like he is now
I absolutely LOVE watching Watson develop!!! Such a high energy, athletic, and talented young player! For all the naysayers saying Jokic is boring to watch, here's your spark (as well as Murray, AG, MPJ, etc). This is the funnest team I may have ever watched in the NBA and Watson will make them even more explosive in the next couple years!
The Nuggets offense is too good. Nikola Jokic’s IQ and skill set compared with the actions that the Nuggets run and the cutting plus Jamal Murray’s shot creation is great to watch.
I don't see Celtics or anyone else beating this Nuggets team in finals. Jokic, Murray and Watson is just too smart,skilled and strong.It's actually crazy to watch how slow and seemingly effortlessly Jokic plays and then suddenly another triple double.He is in the league of his own
Denver’s two games against Boston this year should remind the league that they can dominate and control games even when they shoot poorly from three.
The Real MVP！！Jokic！！！
This is high quality analysis, thank you man
Great video. It shows how masterful Denver's offense is, but at the same time you see how much a team has to on the top of its game the whole time to beat the Celtic's deffense
That Braun screen was a sneaky play from Mike. Wish Watson could have finished it.
Denver is clinical, specially in the clutch. Offense predicated on screening, cutting, and off-ball actions resulting in high efficiency attempts. And even if the defense stunts the 1st action, they just seamlessly flow into the Jokic-Murray 2-man game or straight up Jokic in the post. Literally pick your poison.
jokic's hook pass is dangerous.
Was a great game. You could make an equally compelling video about the Celtics as well. Jokic is just so good. He seems to have eyes in the back of his head. He FEELS people coming and FEELS what the right play is. I think he’s MVP again.
So beautiful to watch, thank you so much
Awesome video, high end analysis with no waste of time. Thank you!
People forget how Denver easily defeat miami heat and expected boston won't be the same. Like no matter how stack the boston are they are not a championship level team
Tatum isn’t a true 1
He can’t get it done
@@YodaSmokesthat’s what I’ve been saying for a couple years now. Boston is made up of guys who aren’t able to be true number 1 options, and it means they’ll lose to the teams like the Heat, Cavs (with LeBron) and Nuggets that have guys like Butler, LeBron and both Jokić and Murray who are capable and willing to take over a game.
These are so well done and I love the play breakdowns
Excellent job AlexHoops!
the breakdown was super helpful! loved the video :)
Your breakdowns are getting very good. Great stuff!
Nice video and explanations
I loved this video. thank you!
Great video
Incredible analysis
Alexhoops with a second background song??? We’re going places boys
Funniest thing, is Denver is still a team home growing their roster development from the bottom up. The Nuggets are probably 2, maybe 3, years away from their peak output. Gonna be an extremely fun dynasty run to watch, especially as a lifelong Nuggies fan!!!!
Learned so much listening to this. Thanks for breaking it all down. Because of the speed of the game, it's hard for us "civilians" to grasp what's really going on. Fascinating and helpful stuff!
Beautiful baseball
Good video 🎉
poetry in motion
thats what you called familiarity and the result of playing together for a longer period of time,
Like the band said, "Sad but true".
Remember Jamal Murray in the playoffs, he was clearly the 2nd best player in the league.
Wow, a CZcams channel featuring a guy who seems to possess a normal amount of functioning neurons and has a solid understanding of basketball. There's still hope in the world. 💪🏿👏🏿
Man, I really want to see a Boston x Denver Finals🙌
It's funny, the Nuggets offense hasn't been special this yr (10th in Off Rtg) yet as long as they're healthy, I'm most confident in them come playoff time (it helps that they literally rolled through the playoffs last yr)
True. But the Nuggets starters offense has been ELITE! That’s what makes the playoffs so exciting, Nuggets shorten up the lineup and the starters, the best group in the NBA, play MORE minutes together!! Now w PWat and CB looking like 6th and 7th “starters” off the bench….Nuggs are comin!!
Best of the season for sure
Having Aaron Gordon and his high FG% as the FOURTH option is a huge luxury…
Jokic is really that good. Multiple teams have teamed up "superstars" Who are highly overrated washed players who barely play any defense or move offball, but jokic stands heads and shoulders above all of them as the lone allstar in his team spanking every other "superteam"
It seems only injury and a ton of off-night shooting by all players (bench and starters) can derail the Nuggets now. This is just insane. How do you stop a cargo train that's barreling down the track with ten sticks? lol
I feel like constant doubling is the only choice to guard him he just simply can’t be given
The chance to do much or it’s over
I hope they stay healthy...
Where does that Giannis Video go?💀
Facts I have been wondering the same thing
Wasn’t up to my standards, felt like I could’ve done a better job on it so probably will upload it in the next few days when I’m happy with it
@@AlexHoops Good bro, Was working when you dropped it, And i told myself i will watch it later, Waiting for you to drop it again, Good job on your videos by the way. You killing it bro
Really appreciate that, thank you man!!
Hey bro can you do a Paul George breakdown
I can do that for you right now.
P. George is old and is at the point of his career that his body ALWAYS breaks down under playoff-level competition.
Jokic waits for the double to come and then makes a move away from the help. I'm learning just from watching him
I teach that to my team of 10-12 year old kids.
Where’s the Giannis video Alex
I didn’t get to watch it before you locked it away
Alex said he didn’t think it was up to his usual standard and will upload a renewed version when he’s happy with it.
Knicks should watch this film considering we dookied on the nuggets
lol,nuggets would destroy yall in playoffs
The jrue holiday scheme aint do shii. they cooked him in the switch and they immediately went back to KP. yes the previous possesions, they forced jrue to switch off him, but they inly did that cos cooking JT and JB was wayy easier than cooking Jrue. but jokic still cooked jrue when they didnt allow the switch.
For people who don't understand some terminologies.
Weak Side - Where the defenders are smaller or the offence are too good for their defenders.
Blind Pig - An offence action combating the perimeter denial, basically the action is focused on the fat player to make a move.
No, the "weak side" is the side of the court away from the low post player. It's the exact same as the "weak side" on a football configuration is the side without the tight end.
The "strong side" has more players, the weak side has less players.
Where are the front running Celtics fans?
"Best offense of all time"
This team will fold again this year. They keep losing to the real contenders!
Tatum 26 out of 27 in clutch time %
But he is the best in the league
Nuggets are the best out of a all time crappy league
The nuggets meat riding is crazy when half of celtics starters had an off night and were still a tatum 3 pointer away from a win
Cope
Nuggets had their worst night of the year from 3, they made 4 all night, plus Tatum made a layup after stepping out of bounds and the call was missed
We swept the season series. Nice try.
@@shawn_derr that’s 2 games by a total of 8 points. Also we u saying we like u part of the team,
@@karlliebknecht2987 that’s 2-0.
The nuggets won by 6 pts lol
Id hardly describe that as picking them apart
Because it sounds like you've just watched the replays hahah
They didn't pick apart anything. Boston shot the ball terribly. JB missed like 8 ft's, which is the only reason Denver won. Jamal made horrible decisions late in the 4th.
@@TemptingTunesI'm a lifelong Nugget with season tickets, little kid. I can be critical of the team I cheer for.
@@Daniel-mg1dk Quiet, old man
@HaykInWonderland If you think that is an insult, you are a mindless little kid like the other brat who got embarrassed and deleted their comment.
