The Dig Podcast

@dededrettv @Salas42_ @HPbasketball The Lakers are a terrible shooting team. There's nothing weird about them going cold from 3.

@Salas42_ @HPbasketball My man talking about other universes LMAO my god ppl wilding this series,lakers couldve also be 4-0 if they didnt shoot 6 threes on game 3 and missed them all after coming back 16 and being down 3 pts they had 3 stops in a row and 3 shots where they couldve just taken the game 🤣

Denver may lose a gentleman’s sweep, but they didn’t get stomped in this series. They’re right there. Tough matchup. Young team. LeBron.

@Calbert1994 @HPbasketball I didn't see a Lakers team that quit tonight. They cut a 20-point lead to 4 in the 4th. They did not just lose because of effort -- they lost because the Nuggets are pretty even with them. Through 3 games, this series is basically dead even with a coin flip deciding Game 2.

@TheDigDenver @HPbasketball For sure. But the you don’t put rebound the Lakers by 20 because you’re good.

I do not look at giving up the lead as a problem. They were going to make a run. Honestly, being poised enough not to lose it is huge. They didn’t get down, they didn’t panic. Executed against a LeBronslaught/Rajonslaught

@chr21jon @BrandonSpano @HPbasketball Yeah. Did you watch the entire rest if the game plus the last two games when LeBron had 6 total points in the 2nd half? He's not the LeBron of 5 years ago. Sorry, dude.

@TheDigDenver @BrandonSpano @HPbasketball Um, did you watch the 20 pt comeback in a 4 minute span in the 4th quarter?

LeBron game for the ages coming in Game 4.

@Justin_Wall_ @ChefMBaldwin @HPbasketball Vogel's message after Game 2 was "We dodged a bullet." So yeah, you hit a 1 in 3 shot. But if you don't see how close this series is, you have your head in the smog.

@ChefMBaldwin @HPbasketball And if the lakers can hit a 3 down the stretch its 3-0. The what if game is fun and very stupid.

If you lose, it’s 2-2 and pressure goes up. If you win, you’re up 3-1 vs. denver.

@Calbert1994 @HPbasketball Except Denver is also a great rebounding team. They have been all year. Not every Lakers loss ilcan be blamed on them not playing well. The Nuggets are good.

@HPbasketball The adjustment for the Lakers is to be mentally in tune from game time. The Lakers are a great rebounding team that got destroyed on the boards. A sure fire sign that they didn’t have the appropriate intensity. I don’t think that happens again.

@chr21jon @BrandonSpano @HPbasketball But he wasn't dominant. The stats are there, but at no point did it seem like LeBron was in control of the game.

@BrandonSpano @HPbasketball I mean he just had a 30 pt triple double, like tonight

Big thank you to @mcukmf for cohosting The Dig with me today! He jinxed us, tho—after he complemented the audio quality of our show, my first 8 minutes of recording came out a bit messy. Apologies to all, but please enjoy! (+We talk a lot about MPJ, so.) denverstiffs.com/2020/9/10/2143…

The punches fly on a Game 2 postmortem episode of The Dig. In "Punch/Counterpunch," @JeremyPoley and @NickHertzogSBN finally hash out Millsap vs. Grant but agree on how worried Nuggets’ fans should be heading into Game 3. Listen now! denverstiffs.com/2020/8/20/2137…

Huge thanks to Neil Olstad of @wolvescast for joining us to discuss the Nuggets trade. I’m not sure if I’m more excited about KBD’s nickname potential as a Denver player or sad that Beasley is going to make so many threes against us, but it’s all here. denverstiffs.com/2020/2/6/21126…

We’re back! This is a continuation of my last Nick’s Nuggets, where I argued why the Nuggets should be all in to win it this year. Here’s what that looks like — "The Dig: Going All In This Year" denverstiffs.com/2020/1/25/2108…

It’s been a couple weeks, but I have some things to say about the #Nuggets! Check out "Nick’s Nuggets: 5 reasons why the Nuggets need to go all in now." I’m curious where Nuggets’ nation is on this one. denverstiffs.com/2020/1/10/2105…
