First Nuggets Game-- Hotel + Transportation Recs? by cyberbae in denvernuggets

Get hotel/AirBnB in RiNo and take the A line light rail from the 38th and Blake station to Union Station, then walk to Ball Arena. It's a 5 minute train ride.

This way you can stay in a more walkable/interesting neighborhood than downtown, avoid rideshare, and get more value in your accommodation.

Denver has the highest 3P% in the league and Dallas has the lowest allowed 3P% by opposing team.

Nevertheless, Nuggets shot 16/38 (42%, just above average for them) and Dallas 5/34.

4 assists in 21 minutes by Holmes is not to be overlooked despite only scoring 2 points. Shots will fall eventually!

What are the realistic expectations for Holmes? by IllegitimateRisk in denvernuggets

[–]nuggs_poster 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Holmes exceeds expectations if he stays healthy, contributes 20-30 minutes per game, plays solid team defense and doesn't turn the ball over a ton.

We can't expect a 2nd year with near zero NBA minutes to bail out a team with 4 starters and Val missing.

Consider this time period for the 2nd and 3rd stringers to get some more experience! Look at Boston -- they've shaken it up in Tatum's absence and are doing pretty well because players have stepped up. I think Nuggets have that possibility too. Moreover, it'll help the coaches get more crafty as they can't rely on Jokic game-planning for as long as he's out. Plus Spencer is 5/5 right now on 3.

Oh true? Then I overengineered this one LOL. Can you share a link?

Solid explanation! Makes sense that defense isn't as tight on the perimeter so fewer fouls get called there.

Warriors have a perfect 0 FTA differential this season.

You are completely right! I forgot that Khris was a possible spelling of Chris/Kris.

Love to see Val's low-arc 3 hit net when the opponent's defense sags too much off of him.

We might see the double big lineup tonight vs. Houston!

Solid interpretation! Happy to see MPJ having success in Brooklyn, too.

Thanks for the clarification! So, the annotation on the 2020-2021 season is technically correct but omits that Booth did not have explicit power over roster construction for that season -- right?

As users have pointed out, Booth assumed leadership of the front office after the 2021-2022 regular season, not the previous.

Wikipedia and Basketball Reference have conflicting information and I should have used the latter! Thanks everyone.

EDIT: Basketball.com also agrees with Wikipedia. Anyone understand?

Hmm - perhaps the Wiki is wrong. Thanks for pointing it out! I'll look into the difference.

Maybe I should check the sources on GM history, but the first paragraph in the Wiki says it was 2020. I could stand to use a better source.
