There’s no way to spin it; the Nuggets have shown some serious flaws lately. They did such a good job of covering for Nikola Jokic and others with injuries, but now that those guys are getting healthy, it feels like things are coming apart.
They’ve dropped 5 of their last 7, and fallen to fourth place in the West, just three games up on the play-in mix. They’re losing games in the clutch, the defense is hemorrhaging points, key players are still out of the lineup, and the stars are starting to show some signs of fatigue. All that, and we’ve still got two months of regular season to go.
