The NBA season is already in the second half of the season, so many teams are now sprinting to establish their position as strong as possible to prepare for the playoffs. This season, the Western Thunder team has obviously stolen the limelight, they have been the leader team in the West in the last two seasons, and they may be the leader team for a long time in the future, so now the Nuggets' attention seems to be slowly decreasing, and the strength of the Thunder team has made many people forget that there is also a giant team in the West, that is, the Nuggets. We can't forget Jokic, the league's No. 1 ruthless character.

In the second half of the game, the Nuggets started to slowly gain momentum, and after winning today's game, the Nuggets are now on a nine-game winning streak, and their record is currently second in the West, behind the Thunder. The Nuggets had a poor start to the season to the point where Jokic was frustrated at the time, but the Nuggets began to slowly find their winning form. There's no denying that Pope's departure did have an impact on the Nuggets, leaving them in the early stages of the season. But the pain was short-lived, and now the Nuggets have completely returned to their normal rhythm, and Wei Shao has brought a lot of positives to the Nuggets, such as his dynamism often keeps the Nuggets players focused on the court.

At the beginning of the season, Murray's performance was not satisfactory and his form was very sluggish, but at this time Murray has slowly begun to find his form, and his performance in the last two games has been very good. Two days ago, against the Trail Blazers, he scored a high score of 55 points. So the Nuggets are still a very strong team, and teams should not ignore their existence and don't think that they have slipped this year, including the Thunder, who may have to be careful.

Imagine who can limit Jokic when it comes to the playoffs? The Thunder's interior is very weak on its own, and they simply don't have good players to limit Jokic. Jokic doesn't have a good way to do that for teams across the league. The reason why the Nuggets didn't get on the floor of the Finals last season was because Murray's form was extremely low last season, and if Murray can maintain a slightly normal form this year, the Nuggets' ceiling will definitely be better than last season. Because they have a stable No. 1 player in the league, Jokic, which is enough to make many teams scared.
