It's crazy how the Nuggets just refuse to lose on their home court, and their chemistry is on point again. They're still the team to beat, even though they're an underrated champion. And can we talk about Jokic? He's out there starting the season with a triple-double: 13 rebounds, 11 assists, and 29 points. What an MVP performance!
As we saw earlier, they still have the champion's aura in them and they won't just be easily beaten when they are completely healthy and have the current high chemistry they had when they won the championship. The Lakers can do nothing against their offense and this is the same for the other teams as well when they play against the Denver Nuggets this season.
It's still too early, I'm sure other teams are already making strategies to beat the Nuggets. The thing is, it's not just Jokic doing all the heavy lifting anymore. If they can somehow contain him, his buddies are ready to step up and make things happen.
I mean, look at this game, it's not just a one-man show. All the starters are hitting double digits, and even the bench players are chipping in. That's some impressive production right there.
