They just had that big win over the Spurs.
So I'm going to ask you right off the bat, is this win streak, is that win, is it enough for you to buy this team as contenders still heading into the playoffs?
During that relatively funky February, early March, what were you seeing from him?
I mean, the turnovers were up, but it just kind of seemed like mentally he was in a different place than we're used to seeing from a guy who's been, you know, best in the world or at least arguably so for some time.
Yeah, it looks like he's back to form.
It looks like he's motivated as they head into the playoffs and maybe playing with a little more joy.
And that's obviously a really good thing for this team.
Do you think that, you know, Jokic is kind of back in that, that best in the world kind of caliber?
I mean, not that he really ever left that territory, but that conversation was reopened for the first time since maybe 2022.
And it seems to me like he's at least back in that it's him or it's SGA and they've separated themselves from everyone else.
Yeah, definitely.
Especially with, you know, that performance against Wemby and everyone getting to see it, I think really was an exclamation point in this dynamic you're describing.
And that conversation seemed like it was over with three weeks ago.
Seems like it's open again now.
Not the only accolade on the table, though, for Denver Nuggets this season.
Jamal Murray playing great basketball.
He made his first all-star team this season.
And when we asked him about it, he said it felt good.
He was happy for his dad.
But he actually wants to make an all-NBA team because that reflects excellence across an entire season.
