No fellas today. Off day show because we have a weird schedule this week. Back to back Tuesday, Wednesday, two days off, and then back to back Saturday, Sunday. And because we have the weekend shows, we're taking a little bit of time off. But I'm not taking time off. Bringing in my old friend and podcast host, the other half of the world's finest,
How has Peyton Watson's breakout performance impacted his future?
From Locked on Nuggets, it's Matt Moore. Matt, how are you doing today?
I'm doing well, man. I thought it was funny because you're like, I don't know, man. I got to produce this thing. And I'm like, look at you. Look how pampered you got over at Locked on Nuggets. We do all the production ourselves. And then now you're like, oh, man, this is so hard. I got to push buttons. You got soft, old man.
I have gotten soft. You're right that this is exactly how we used to run the old one. I called you up. I actually called you over the weekend. You called me back today, and we just had a chat, and I was like, we should just turn this into a podcast because these are all very interesting discussions, and I think people would like to hear them, hear kind of how our show goes. So...
What are the implications of the trade deadline for the Nuggets?
later in the show we're going to rank the western conference on contender level because i'm curious where matt has the nuggets we're going to talk about trade ideas that everyone's going to hate i can't wait to throw these out and for people to just be so mad at me for even suggesting these trades but if you think about them they kind of make a little bit of sense in some ways and then uh we're just going to go through and talk about have we updated perspectives now do we have a different perspective on yokich calvin booth michael malone uh those three guys but we're gonna start With the big news today at the Nuggets World, which is that Peyton Watson won the NBA Player of the Week. He had a phenomenal week, man.
Player of the Week. He now joins Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic as the only guys in the Jokic era to win Player of the Week. What do you make of this? I feel like this is a huge deal, and I'm not sure how many Nuggets players are even capable of winning Player of the Week.
Yeah, so I'm mostly just really happy for Peyton that he's getting this opportunity and that he gets to have this moment. And he's had, I think, such a great... At least with us, he's had a really great attitude this entire season. And I've really... I think part of it, too, is... He's had the numbers. The numbers are incredible. They do not win without him. But that part is crucial to me, is that they're winning without all these guys. If Peyton doesn't raise his game to exactly where he has, the Nuggets are not 4-3 without Yoke. They are underwater.
How does Peyton Watson's performance compare to other players?
And for him to have been such a big part of keeping this team up I think is such a phenomenal accomplishment for him. I think it's so cool to see him finding his own game. And like, you see him also, they asked him kind of, what have you kind of discovered in this time when you've gotten the ball as much as you have? And Peyton talked about last game. He's like, how hard this is. He's like, I have a newfound respect for all those guys that have the ball this much. He's like, you're seeing all these different coverages and you're seeing the way that they defend you is just entirely different. And you're kind of seeing that. And he will continue to see that as the scouting report kind of catches up on him because it's going to be now like, okay, we need to get –
a more detailed scouting report. Now that we have more kind of possessions to, to narrow down on what his tendencies are. You're going to see that. Like, how does he respond to, to on ball? How does he respond? If you shade him to his left, like what are those kinds of like small things, but for him to have accomplished this and for him to have done it, I, I've read about this this morning on the dig and the newsletter that I write.
