Harrison Wind

This goes back to them not being able to score as efficiently as they need to and get enough stops against really good teams at the end of close games.

And we just saw it again today.

I feel like a team in Minnesota who came into this game with the same record as the Nuggets just kind of outmatched them and outclassed them when this game really came down to it in winning time.

And Minnesota was a better team today.

They just were.

And I know the Nuggets have injuries.

I know they could look like a different team again when they're whole.

But this has been a theme of this season, I feel like.

Nuggets against really good competition don't have enough.

And then in late close games, in game deciding fourth quarters, don't have enough either.

So it's a concern for me.

It's been a concern all season.

And it was again today.

It's tough, man, because obviously his goose egg today is the biggest storyline from this game.

He was really bad in this one.

Look, defensively, he's been good this year.

Funny enough, the Nuggets have their 22nd in defense, I think, this season.

They were 22nd in defense last year.

Hasn't helped the team overall defense there that much.

That is true.
