00:00 What the Timberwolves are doing this year should be paid attention to.
00:04 28 wins as well for the defending Western Conference champs
00:08 and the NBA champions, the Denver Nuggets.
00:11 The only difference is Minnesota only has 11 losses.
00:14 The Nuggets have 13, but it was win number 28.
00:18 And I do think it bears repeating.
00:19 That's 41 games now for Denver.
00:22 They're at the halfway point of their 82-game regular season
00:26 as the Nuggets went at home yesterday, 117-109 against the Indiana Pacers.
00:31 Do not cover as a double-digit favorite at home this year
00:35 as a favorite, 11-9-1 against the spread.
00:38 But Denver does get that eight-point victory.
00:42 Yeah, I know Tyree Salabird, that's going to be really tough here
00:44 for the Indiana Pacers moving forward.
00:46 But you're right, we are at the halfway point for the Nuggets here, 17-4 at home.
00:49 This is what you fight for.
00:50 It's why they won a championship last year.
00:52 Home court advantage means something specifically in Denver
00:55 when you're playing at elevation.
00:56 And you were talking about ultra-efficient here.
00:58 Look at Nicole Yoke.
00:59 It's 12 of 13 from the four last night.
01:01 Scores 25 points, 12 rebounds.
01:03 She just misses the triple-double by only getting nine assists.
01:06 Yeah, only, Ben, nine assists from your center in the basketball game.
01:09 It's a good win here for the Nuggets.
01:10 They'll take as many of those as they can.
01:12 Hey, nobody feels bad.
01:14 Oh, the Pacers are down.
01:14 They're best players.
01:15 So what? Beat 'em and move on.
