I don’t know what to call him yet, but I vote we call his blocks Brazilean Whacks.

He was warming up great, included some contact in his warm up, but ultimately was ruled out. In the video he shook his head as he exited after warm-up

Hello chums

Seriously, after the performance last night, especially with that block, we may have picked up a GEM. To early to call, but I think we are in a good spot.

Me and my girlfriend are in Denver for the week from Michigan (pistons fan here but nuggets have been my second team for a while) and we are going to the game tonight. We are staying somewhat close to the arena, but was wondering if anyone had any tips on best strat for parking/driving. We ideally would love to explore Denver and just walk right up to the arena when the doors open, but I’m unsure on if that will work parking wise. We are also wondering if ubering might just be our best bet. If anyone has any advice, we would gladly take it lol. Thanks everyone!

They may have been old and Scott was grouchy but I still miss them. I'll miss Marlowe calling the game. Imagine if he had been the one to call that Jokic pass.

I was just rewatching the some clips from the game last night and this duo worked out really well. They connected on both ends. On defense you’ll see Braun as the PoA and Brazile as the athletic help and it led to blocks/tough shots multiple times. They also have both had really good hustle so far and are getting down and dirty, also crashing the boards— the rebound numbers are great for them. Multiple offensive boards for both of them in games 1 and 2. Both of them crashing led to a putback by brazile where it was bouncing to Dejounte but Braun got a hand on it to knock it away and it went right to brazile who had got in there for an easy dunk.

It’s like the defense and hustle is compounding on itself, when both of them are putting in the energy like that it becomes so much harder for the other team to account for them.

I really hope braun gets his shot back because everything is there for him besides that, the defense, hustle, athleticism, finishing. Just needs that 3pt. And Brazile is a revelation, what a rookie. But still these two guys play off each other, contagious energy, just outworking everyone else. I want to see more of them together (obviously with a shot creator though, but it’s like a perfect combo to pair with jokic) and see what they can do
