NEW episode of Pickaxe and Roll, presented by @DKSportsbook:
The Nuggets lost tonight, and the issue wasn’t any one singular player.
The issue was that the Nuggets didn’t play with the urgency of a team that’s one step closer to a play-in spot. denverstiffs.com/2022/2/5/22919… – 2:49 AM

It’s hard to believe Herb Jones is 49 games into his NBA career. He has already developed into a starter, a lock-down defender — and in a surprise to some — a scoring threat.
Jones poured in 18 fourth-quarter points in New Orleans’ win over Denver. nola.com/sports/pelican… – 1:23 AM

Willie Green on Jaxson Hayes’ rapid adjustment to power forward (after playing center): “He’s more comfortable than we all would’ve thought. We like what we see from Jaxson at the 4. He’s long, athletic, he can rebound, he does a really good job spacing in the dunker (spot).” – 1:04 AM

Nice little Jokic-esque tap pass from Embiid there before getting the ball back for the turnaround. But Mavs come back with the Luka-to-Powell alley-oop, and Doc calls timeout. Sixers’ lead has shrunk to 51-44 with about four to play in the half. – 11:51 PM

So I may end up voting for Joel Embiid for MVP, but the narrative in some very high profile places that he’s the undisputed leader – without even a mention of Nikola Jokic – is WILD to me. The Nuggets are only three games behind the Sixers, and missing more significant players. – 10:56 PM

When DEN bench features Bones+Nnaji without Campazzo, they have a 112.9 ORTG & a 113.5 DRTG which is -0.5 NRTG.

Lots of interesting lineup decisions for both the Nuggets and Pelicans tonight. Jonas Valanciunas and Jaxson Hayes have been starting together, and Ingram will of course start.
Denver’s without Aaron Gordon. I think they might start Davon Reed honestly lol – 8:24 PM

MVP odds haven’t moved since the James Harden-to-Philly rumors flared up. Joel Embiid remains the favorite, but at the same +200 odds. Nikola Jokic close behind at +300. – 7:41 PM

Nash says the decision to hold Harden out tonight is precautionary — they want to give him another couple days to make sure his hamstring is feeling better. Nash does not believe Harden will need an MRI — and he’s hopeful he’ll play Sunday in Denver. – 7:35 PM

Silver lining of the Portland trade today for Charlotte, they got a lot worse and the Pelicans still have a chance to make the play in and if they win could make the playoffs and send their 22 1st round pick to Charlotte – 7:07 PM

The Nuggets are facing the Pelicans tonight. New Orleans will be without Zion of course, but also Willy Hernangomez, Garrett Temple, and Kira Lewis among others. Josh Hart is questionable.
Brandon Ingram and Jonas Valanciunas will play, matching up with Gordon and Jokić. – 4:48 PM

This trade is a good illustration of how ownership motives and pressure can be a driving force in lopsided deals.
As the trade deadline approaches, keep an eye on the owners of the Kings (Vivek Ranadivé), Pelicans (Gayle Benson) and Lakers (LeBron James). – 4:25 PM

Included in @Adam Mares‘ List: The play I referenced on yesterday’s @DNVR_Nuggets show where a certain Nuggets role player gets mad at Nikola Jokic for a turnover that was actually his fault (not Jokic’s) because he didn’t finish his cut.

The Clippers’ pick being in the lottery still isn’t out of the question.
Unless they catch the Nuggets or Mavs, the Clippers have to beat KAT/Ant/DLo or LeBron/Russ/Davis to make the playoffs.
Clippers have the 4th toughest remaining schedule.
Pick most likely ends up 12-16. – 4:11 PM
