00:00 We go all around the association looking back on last night's action setting the stage for
00:08 the weekend firmly in that playoff push around the association and speaking of the postseason
00:14 deja vu last night in Denver the NBA finals rematch from a year ago the heat on one side
00:20 the nuggets on the other that altitude advantage is nothing to trifle with Denver now at home
00:26 24 and 5 straight up this year depending on where you got the number either you covered last night
00:33 or you pushed Denver now 14 13 and 2 against the spread as a home favorite with a six-point victory
00:42 as a six-point home favorite 103 97 Denver takes the NBA finals rematch like they took the NBA
00:49 finals over Miami by the way you take a look at this game overall right and again you're gonna
00:55 feel great about this game depending on which way you bet which line you got but let's remove that
00:58 from the equation I actually like the performances out of both teams how could you like that it's
01:03 107 97 what act the heck actually went on the scrappiness of the Miami Heat without their full
01:08 starting lineup hanging around there with a chance to beat the Denver Nuggets now chance I use
01:13 certainly slightly but staying inside the number and being competitive here you take a look at the
01:17 Denver Nuggets I would have told you this then before the game hey you know what I know what
01:20 that box score is going to look like Jamal Murray it's gonna give you six points in this game
01:24 Nicole Lioca it's gonna give you 18 like wow that's a Miami performance that they're gonna
01:28 gut out a victory here but still the Denver Nuggets one without their superstars even playing
01:32 well quite frankly I didn't see this come down but only 14 minutes out of Jamal Murray I'm gonna
01:36 assume he probably left with some sort of injury in this game and they were still able to pick up
01:41 the victory so that's a pretty good performance out of the Denver Nuggets and what was the actual
01:45 injury here to Jamal Murray do we know exactly what it was ankle knee and spring exited early
01:51 with what they are calling a sprained ankle the severity of it a timetable really has not been
01:56 set but that is why Jamal Murray left last night for Miami no Tyler hero DRS as you mentioned at
02:03 the top of the show Jimmy Butler did return after serving his one-game suspension earlier this week
02:09 for being involved in the fight with the New Orleans Pelicans last Friday night and he returned
02:15 with a 21-point performance the first game of five for Denver following the all-star break that
02:21 Nicoli Okic has not recorded a triple-double only seven assists last night and under every one of
02:28 those prop categories but Michael Porter jr. leading the way in the game and for Denver 30
02:34 points a game highs
02:37 (upbeat music)
