What happened in the Nuggets vs. Knicks game?

what's going on everybody welcome into the losers lounge catastrophic losers lounge we are live from the toyota lounge room by our front range store stores towards the official vehicle of dnvr coming to you after an absolute beatdown at ball arena the nuggets lose 142 103 to the new york knicks my god They get embarrassed. They get blown out at home in a game where Jamal Murray got hurt. And other than Nikola Jokic, quite honestly, it looked like nobody else wanted to be out there. We got a lot to talk about. We'll have Brett and Vogue coming to you live from Ball Arena in a little bit. Really curious to see what David Adelman and the players have to say after this game. But we got a lot to go over.
I'm Harrison Wind. Got D-Line with me. Yeah, man, I got the emotional bends today. This was a crazy night, man. The highest high to now I'm at the nadiriest nadir. There's only one thing to do at a time like this. It's, of course, to pick up my old habit, smoking a wet-lib cigarette to get me through this goddamn game, this post-game. I don't know if I'm going to talk. I'm just going to be over here sucking on this cigarette. I mean, should you just light it up at this point? Like, can we light it up? I don't think we've ever lit the wet limp cigarette tonight. It might be the night to do that. It might be too wet. It probably is too wet. Like I said, an absolute beatdown. Nuggets lose 142-103. Let's get into a little fast recap, and then we'll go into our big takeaways.
There were such huge emotional swings in this game tonight, and it started before the game, and that's what you're talking about. You know, we had a Nuggets takeover at Ball Arena tonight. You were there, and it was an incredible night for a takeover, at least leading up until the game, because Aaron Gordon was back. Aaron Gordon returned. He started. He got a... unbelievable uh introduction and and uh ovation right before the game tonight at ball arena and not just aaron gordon the nuggets had their starting five back for the first time since november 12th that was the 11th game of the season that was the last time the nuggets had their starting five back They were together again tonight. Jamal Murray, Christian Brown, Cam Johnson, Aaron Gordon, Nikola Jokic.
My real first note of the game, it was a pretty loud start from AG.

How did Jamal Murray's injury impact the game?

fired up a couple threes early on missed them but then came down the lane with a pretty thunderous dunk that got everybody going and it's really hard to imagine but the vibes at that moment were pretty electric like the nuggets were back at that point the the energy was unbelievable the body language was great CB hit an early three. Jamal Murray was cooking early on. Murray had nine in the first quarter as well. Yoke was playing well. Nuggets were up 29-27 after the first quarter. And then in the second, the wheels started to fall off. A really interesting move by David Adelman. You know, Aaron Gordon, first game back, it seems like he was on about a 20-minute limit, played 21 minutes. Started the second quarter at backup center.
Mm-hmm. Maybe that was to match up against Townes. I'm not sure. There was a moment where I was like, why are we playing so small? And Val was in the locker room. He was in the locker room. Interesting. I think he was just like going to the bathroom because then he came out. As soon as he came out, they put him in. Huh? Well, I wonder if Brendan votes can have anything to say about that weird timing, considering he always goes in at the start of the second quarter. I don't know, but AG was in there at backup center to start the second, and that's kind of where the wheels came off. Nuggets defense was awful. transition defense was terrible half court defense was terrible they were playing a zone a little bit that didn't work either they got beat up on the glass and like i said second quarter is when things really started to unravel they lost that second quarter 38 23
they go into halftime and into the third quarter, they were ice cold from three in the first half.
