WORLD'S FINEST IS BACK! Matt Moore and Adam Mares break down what they think the hold up is with Jamal Murray's extension, the possible ramifications and how Denver mostly has its hands tied.

| How Long Will Jokic Play In The NBA? | 26 Aug 2024 | 00:36:24 | |
World's Finest! Josh Kroenke talks about "future flexibility" with the KCP decision, have the Nuggets changed their tune or was this always the plan and priority? If the Nuggets are Tier 2 contenders next year, but the payoff is return to Tier 1 for two more years, is that tradeoff worth it? Plus, we talk the great question of just how long Nikola Jokic will want to play in the NBA. All this and more on Locked on Nuggets.

| Peyton Watson: The Force Awakens | 30 Jul 2024 | 00:30:30 | |
The Denver Nuggets are still in the driver seat but the path to the title will look different than it has the last two seasons. Peyton Watson's development might be the key to it all given that he's already the (arguably) best defender on the team.
Jamal Murray struggles in a win vs Australia as he continues to come off of the bench. Does his Olympic performance cause any concern?

| Nuggets Rout Jazz | JamAll-NBA? | 11 Mar 2024 | 00:34:26 | |
On this episode of World's Finest with Matt Moore and Adam Mares, the guys break down the Nuggets' win over the Jazz and just how locked in Denver was. They talk about whether or not Denver can build championship habits vs. inferior competition and the cost of trying to improve on an already winning formula. Plus, could Jamal Murray compete for an All-NBA spot if he winds up eligible, and Murray shows his love of fighting sports and how he consumes streaming content.

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 5.17 - What would it mean if Tim Connelly left the Denver Nuggets? | 17 May 2019 | 00:25:25 | |
In this episode, I talk about the news that the Washington Wizards have been granted permission to interview Tim Connelly. Connelly is widely credited as the architect of this Denver Nuggets team and is responsible for drafting Nikola Jokic, Gary Harris, and the rest of the core of this team. How would losing him affect the Nuggets future and what would the perception be among Denver Nuggets fans if he left at least in part because he was offered more money elsewhere? In segment 3, I talk about Juancho Hernangomez having surgery to repair an injury to his core and what that means for his future with the Nuggets. Music: Riza Penjoel

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 5.14 - Exit interviews and 4 perspectives on the Denver Nuggets season and playoff run | 14 May 2019 | 00:39:10 | |
In this episode, I share my notes from Monday's exit interviews with the Denver Nuggets players. I play an important audio clip from Paul Millsap about "his story" and what he wants for the final stretch of his career. Then, in segment 3, I share 4 perspectives on Denver's playoff run and season. Under the microscope, game 7 invalidated some of the optimism around this team. Face to face, the Nuggets have some work to do. From above, the season was a success with a lot of things trending in the right direction. And from 10,000 feet, only one thing really matters. Find out what that is! Music: Riza Penjoel

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 5.12 - Analyzing game 7, the playoff run, and the Denver Nuggets season. With Matt Moore. | 13 May 2019 | 00:42:13 | |
In this episode, I am joined by Matt Moore to discuss the details of game 7 and the key issues that plagued the Denver Nuggets against the Portland Trail Blazers. We also talk about the entirety of the playoffs and what we learned about the Nuggets in their playoff debut. Lastly, we ask whether the strengths and weaknesses of this version of the Nuggets have been made clear throughout this season and whether or not the weaknesses can be overcome with internal growth and development.

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 5.10 - The Blazers adjusted their rotation in game 6, can Denver counter in game 7? | 10 May 2019 | 00:35:11 | |
In this episode I share my notes on Denver's loss to the Portland Trail Blazers in game 6 of the Western Conference Semifinals. Aminu and Harkless played fewer minutes while Rodney Hood went scorched Earth on Denver's wings. The 2nd unit fumbled a lead (again) thanks to an off night from Paul Millsap. And the Nuggets' offensive rhythm fell off in the 2nd half.

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 5.9 - Basketball curses, a real life witch hunt and the Wheel of Fortune, with Ariana Lenarsky | 09 May 2019 | 00:30:05 | |
In this episode I am joined by Airiana Lenarsky, a writer, singer, and Tarot reader for the Ringer's Emmy nominated digital show "NBA Desktop." In segments 1 and 2, Ariana explains how she became a Denver Nuggets fan last year by sheer chance. She also shares he quest to find Robota, the Witch who the Denver Nuggets hired to place a hex on the Indiana Pacers during the 1975 ABA Finals. In the final segment, we ask what the Nuggets need to do to ever win an NBA championship and pull a tarot card to discover what answers the deck might have in store. You don't have to believe in the magic of tarot to enjoy the segment. As Ariana explains, it's all about fun and you can take it as seriously as woks best for you to enjoy it. But it's a fun bit and she does a great job sharing a part of her personality throughout the whole thing. If you are looking for a more in-depth X's and O's beakdown of the Nuggets-Blazers series, please check out yesterday's episode which was a deep dive look at game 5.

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 5.8 - How the Denver Nuggets broke open game 5 behind Paul Millsap's monster game | 08 May 2019 | 00:34:26 | |
In this episode, I share my detailed notes on Game 5 between the Denver Nuggets and Portland Trail Blazers. The Blazers made a key matchup adjustment and it had the opposite effect as they were hoping. I talk about how switching Enes Kanter onto Paul Millsap backfired despite Kanter "knowing all of Millsap's moves." The Denver bench also may have found a new plan of attack. Damian Lillard played like a superstar but it didn't even move the needle. And Juancho Hernangomez even got his moment in the spotlight. Music: Riza Penjoel

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 5.7 - Don't sleep on what Jamal Murray is doing in his playoff debut | 07 May 2019 | 00:33:57 | |
In this episode, I share my detailed notes on game 4. Jamal Murray had one of his best games of the playoffs and continues to look like a true star in the making. Will Barton got the nod to close the game and knocked down a pair of key three-pointers. Paul Millsap provided a scoring boost when the Denver Nuggets needed it most. And the bench unit, led by Monte Morris, continued to struggle. Lastly, I provide a few keys to game 5 and share what I expect for the final 2 or 3 games of this series. Music: Riza Penjoel

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 5.1 - Areas for improvement and regression in game 2 for the Nuggets AND Blazers | 01 May 2019 | 00:29:10 | |
In segment one of this episode I look at the ways the Denver Nuggets can improve in game two. What adjustments can they make? And in what ways might they have been unlucky that they probably won't be in game two? In segment two, I look at some of the areas that they had success in game one but probably won't find success in game two. In segment three, I do the same exact thing for the Portland Trail Blazers. Should we expect Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum to shoot better from behind the arc? Will they make a change to who guards Nikola Jokic? Music: Tired Eyes, Ernest Ranglin

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 4.30 - Denver's dynamic two-man game delivered a game one victory | 30 Apr 2019 | 00:32:37 | |
In this episode, I share my notes from an action packed game one of the Western Conference semi-finals between the Denver Nuggets and the Portland Trail Blazers. The story of the game was the two-man play between Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic in the pick and roll. The two Nuggets cornerstones looked like Stockton and Malone, playing off of each other so nicely and just dismantling the Portland defense with the PnR. I talk about what made that action so effective, the value of delivering the ball to Jokic in the paint, Paul Millsap's timely buckets, and Denver's second unit that looks like it is ready for a resurgence.

I share my notes from the game including the inconsistency of Torrey Craig’s defense on DeMar DeRozan, the Nuggets not taking advantage of Derrick White’s foul trouble, and Michael Malone’s decision to sit Jokic for a crucial stretch to open the 4th quarter.

Jamal Murray played one of the most complete games of his career, Gary Harris continued to put the locks on Derrick White, and Nikola Jokic was his usual brilliant self.

The two of us talk about our big takeaways from the first four games of the first round series between the Denver Nuggets and the San Antonio Spurs. Should the Nuggets feel lucky to be tied 2-2? We also look ahead toward game 5, 6, and beyond and talk about which players will be x-factors, who we expect to step up, and try to predict adjustments that each team will make. In the final segment we had an interesting conversation about Gregg Popovich's approach to the media.

In this upbeat episode, I share my notes on Denver's potentially season-altering win over the San Antonio Spurs in game 4. Torrey Craig shined like a crazy diamond in his playoff debut as a starter, Jamal Murray played an ideal bounce back game, and Nikola Jokic looked like the most dominant version of himself. I also discuss Michael Malone's decision to wait until game 4 to make a lineup change, Will Barton's postgame comments, and why Gary Harris had one of the most impressive 8-point games possible. At the end, I hand out grades for every key contributor on the roster. Music: Riza Penjoel, Joakim Karud

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 4.19 - Derrick White and the Spurs are exposing Murray's 2 biggest weaknesses | 19 Apr 2019 | 00:34:15 | |
In this episode, I share my notes on game three of the first round series between the San Antonio Spurs and the Denver Nuggets. At the center of the episode was the absolute dominate performance by Derick White, who seemed intent to not just out-duel Jamal Murray, but to humiliate him in the process. I talk about Murray's two biggest weaknesses - inability to contain dribble penetration and a slow first step on offense - and how White and the Spurs have built an entire game plan around it. I also talk about the continued slump of Will Barton, the impressive play of Malik Beasley, and why there is reason to believe that the Nuggets still have adjustments that they can make to shift this series back in their favor. The gain was a bit high on this one. Still listenable but the audio quality is a bit below the norm. Apologies! Recording on the road is always tough.

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 4.17 - Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets are back from the dead | 17 Apr 2019 | 00:36:40 | |
In this episode, I share my notes on Denver's comeback win against the San Antonio Spurs. Jamal Murray was horrible...until suddenly he was the best player in the world. Nikola Jokic continued to make plays while still trying to figure out how to attack Jakob Poeltl. Lastly, I close today's show by reminding fans what Will Barton has meant to this Denver Nuggets team and why booing him in his darkest hour, tears apart a piece of our soul as Nuggets fans in a way that damages this special night. Music: Riza PenJoel, Ernest Ranglin

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 4.14 - Notes from Nuggets-Spurs Game 1 | 14 Apr 2019 | 00:39:51 | |
In this episode, I share my notes on game one of the Nuggets-Spurs series. San Antonio’s game plan was centered around forcing the ball out of the hands of Nikola Jokic. I share my thoughts on how Jokic handled that plan, whether or not he should’ve been more aggressive looking for his shot, and what both he and the Nuggets as a whole can do to combat that game plan. Other topics include:Denver’s three-point shot selectionWill Barton’s defense against DeRozanMason Plumlee’s role in this seriesGary Harris looking like his old self

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 4.10 - The Denver Nuggets look outmatched against the Utah Jazz | 10 Apr 2019 | 00:31:39 | |
In this episode, I share my notes on Denver's 118-108 loss to the Utah Jazz. Rudy Gobert dominated inside, holding Nikola Jokic to just 2 points and 6 fouls. Paul Millsap also struggled to get going against Utah's stout interior defense. Gary Harris must've taken offense to reports of his athletic demise as he finished three dunks in this game. Malik Beasley started to look like his old self. And for the 3rd time in as many games, Will Barton did not play in the 4th quarter. I share my thoughts on all of those plot points and explain why, despite stumbling toward the finish line, the Denver Nuggets are still in position to create the perfect playoff bracket.

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 4.8 - Did the Denver Nuggets make the right call against the Portland Trail Blazers | 08 Apr 2019 | 00:31:11 | |
In this episode, I share my notes on both games against the Portland Trail Blazers. On Sunday, the Denver Nuggets chose to rest Paul Millsap, Nikola Jokic, and Jamal Murray and head coach Michael Malone elected to leave Will Barton, Gary Harris, and Monte Morris on the bench late in the 4th quarter. The Nuggets blew an 8-point lead but was that by design? And is Denver being smart about their end of season strategy? On Friday, Torrey Craig closed over Will Barton. Was that the right move and should we expect Craig to close more games going forward? Lastly, I look at Gary Harris's season since his injury and explain the one thing he needs to do in order to help the Nuggets succeed in the playoffs.

In this episode, I share my notes on Denver's brutal loss to the Wizards at home. In the final segment, I talk about how Jokic gets a tough whistle from officials BUT it's his temper, lack of control, and frustration with overly physical teams that is a more immediate issue.

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 3.19 - A good day to be a Nuggets fan | 19 Mar 2019 | 00:30:46 | |
In this episode, I share my notes on one of the more impressive Denver Nuggets wins of the season, a 114-105 statement victory over the Boston Celtics. Nikola Jokic dominated every facet of the game, no one could make a wide open shot, and Isaiah Thomas got a nice tribute from the Celtics fans and from Michael Malone, who placed him in the rotation for the first time in over a week. But the real story was how much the Denver Nuggets looked like their best self on both ends of the court as they began their 4-game road trip with a win.

| Locked on Denver Nuggets - 3.18 - Paul Millsap has a PhD in basketball, but he's still a student of the game | 18 Mar 2019 | 00:37:30 | |
In this episode, I share my notes on the Denver Nuggets win over the Indiana Pacers on Saturday night. Nikola Jokic always plays well against Myles Turner, Denver's guards showed patience in the half court even after they got down by 18 points, and Paul Millsap continues to play as well as he has at any point since arriving in Denver. I talk about all of that and share some thoughts about his post game comments regarding his continued education in the game of basketball.
