  • After the Denver Nuggets pulled off yet another comeback victory, is it more impressive they are able to steal wins, or are these comebacks cause for alarm? On this edition of Road Trippin', Rich, Channing and Allie discuss, the reigning NBA Champs, and their penchant for come-from-behind victories. Also, the crew discusses the potential of the league changing the minimum game requirements for individual awards. And we debate who has what it takes to take the mantle as the "face of the NBA" after LeBron James and Steph Curry retire.

    Nuggets are 10-1 since the all star break. They just took the #1 spot in the west. Ignorance …

    If only we had evidence of consistency in the playoffs from the Nuggets. Maybe something like a championship of some sort? This is exactly how each game happened in the playoffs. Do they not remember the Lakers basically saying we almost beat themin every game. And STILL havent beaten them. They are a clutch 4th quarter team just like a few years ago everyone was afraid of the 3rd quarter Warriors because they consistently turned in it on.

    Idk how y'all are worried about the nuggets winning "harder" they've consistently won by a comfy 5-8 points all year, down 20 up 20. The Celtics is what you get when you try to blow out in the regular season, no clutch experience.

      If they think that's an issue then they haven't been truly paying attention to how their season or last season went. They did turn it on last year after having to turn it off the last 15 games after securing the #1 seed. Was going 16-4 last playoffs difficult for them? When they need to turn it on for the good teams (2-0 vs Celtics, 3-0 vs Lakers, 4-0 vs Warriors, 2-0 vs Heat) they do just that. 10-1 since All Star break!!

    RJ is still wrong
    Impact of winning still happens on a losing team
    If Wemby was not playing, they'd barely win a game
    Every game they've won has been thanks to him pretty much
    Also best defensive player also doesn't matter, because it judges how good you are on defense, basically what player has performed the best on defense
    And Wemby is definitely a strong case for that
    If you could pick either him or Rudy on your team but none was allowed to play offense, that's the question that should be asked
    Yes, Wemby is the defensive player of the year

    It used to annoy me to see analysts dismiss the Nuggets. Now it's just funny. They can't get their heads around what Denver is doing, and they're expecting another team to step up and show that the Nuggets are a mirage... and yet not a single team in the NBA has even a slight chance of beating them in 7 games. And not a single player in the NBA can stop Jokic. Wouldn't be surprised if Denver wins 2 or 3 more finals, and then when they finally lose, all the analysts say, "See! I told you!"

    30:00 lolz,uhm no
    The why is because we've never seen anything like Wemby before and other than Giannis and Jokic (for whom its probably to late for now to achieve the same status due to age) Wemby is the only one that looks like he could potentially enter a goat discussion in the future
    No other player, except maaaybe Luka , has that
    If Giannis and Jokic somehow go crazy and win like 4-5 championships then maybe they'll get closer, but really not actually
    Giannis would've needed to win 2 more between 2018-2020
    Jokic would've needed at least 1
    Anyways this is why there is expectation on Wemby, he can potentially become anything, his talent is off the charts generational
    All other players are just very good players

  • @JovicaMilutinovic
    @JovicaMilutinovic Před 2 měsíci

    Last season, everyone said that Denver would not win a ring, even the bookies along with TV, and with all podcasts like this, put the Nuggets in 4th or 5th place at the beginning of the playoffs. Denver is dominant in all categories, beautiful basketball where the whole team plays as one. Together with the coaches, they can recognize the moment and let the other teams with the game like they play in the play off, to get advantage of 10 to 15 points and then crush them in the 4th quarter because the opponents don't have the strength or skill to match. You will see real Denver when the play off starts, and these podcasts that look for flaws in Denver and constantly adjust Boston, GS, Lakers... who were washed by Denver.

    The Nuggets definitely have issues staying ahead when they're up big (~20 points). That's an aspect of their game I wish they'd improve on.
    Sadly, Jamal Murray is the perfect example of a player who can only perform under high pressure. It's also (together with injuries) why he's never been an all-star.
    As for the face of the league, I think it's going to be LeBron until he retires, and then it'll be either Steph (Ja has the appeal already, but not the on-court credentials) until Wembanyama is ready.
    It all depends on how quickly Wembanyama ascends (assuming he eventually does, of course).
