Nuggets being bad in the clutch has, I think, messed up our bets too.

It really has, man.

We don't know who this team is anymore, man.

We don't.

It felt like earlier in the season, David Adelman was doing a really good job of mixing and matching lineups, different rotations, sometimes based on who the opponent was.

It also feels like as Nuggets have dropped a lot of games right before the break, these couple post-break, he's now more locking himself into the same kind of guys every night.

This was not a game for Big Val, and I'm with you.

I think at this point in the season, as you ramp up towards the playoffs,

there are some opponents that he just doesn't really fit against.

You know, the Warriors five-out offense, we knew it was probably something that was going to give the Nuggets a lot of fits if they hit some threes early.

Surely they did, and it was just a really tough matchup for Big Val.

I would have been, like, cool with the Nuggets going way smaller and just, you know, seeing what a different look looked like against that five-out offense, but...

Yeah, he was not great today.

I mean, it was only, you know, minus five in his minutes.

I don't think it's the reason they lost, but it certainly didn't help.

Well, he'd also make them a tougher team, and the Nuggets are just not a tough team right now, man.

Tough and soul.

Absolutely.

Second quarter.
