Julian Strother's playing well.
This might be the most good games in a row he's ever had.
He's making shots.
He looks confident.
He's making fewer of the plays that really drive me nuts.
And I don't know that him playing well right now is actually going to factor into the big story of this year about how well the Nuggets do.
But it might factor into future years.
And it's certainly better than him not having this moment.
So I think it's a sneaky thing of like, hey, all right, objectively, has Julian Strother been good the last 10 games?
I think it's a clear yes.
Yep.
I think so too.
I think the rebounding thing is kind of important.
And the reason I say that is because I don't think he's a good defender.
And I kind of wonder if the blueprint for the Nuggets going forward is like there's a blueprint for what Denver has to do.
They can't just be the same team of 2023.
They have to evolve with the league.
And I think one of those evolutions is I don't think Denver can have a bad defender on the roster ever again.
Jokic and Murray are your bad defenders.
Those are your weak points.
