Raptors doing a bit of pre-switching on defence with OG on Jokic and Poeltl on Gordon a bit; they’ll switch a lot of stuff – 9:15 PM

Good thing about starting OG on Joker is that if you’re lucky Poeltl ends up on him after the switch. Good in theory I mean. – 9:14 PM

Dev’s @DKSportsbook 🔒 of the game:
Jamal Murray over 28.5 points + assists
He will also hit over 2.5 3-pointers for sure. – 9:00 PM

The Nuggets’ top-four most-used lineups all score 119.8 points per 100 possessions. They can score the ol’ orange. – 8:48 PM

Sixers lost to the Magic after beating Denver. Surely they’ll avoid a trap game to an 11th seed who played yesterday? – 7:45 PM

On the videos of Nikola Jokic manning the whiteboard during Nuggets timeouts: He’s not drawing up plays, Michael Malone says, he’s telling guys where to go and how to react based on how the defense is going to guard. – 7:37 PM

Michael Malone on Reggie Jackson and Thomas Bryant:
“That’s one of my priorities is to get them more comfortable…I just want them to relax and play and do the things I know they’re capable of doing…I love the fact that we have a deep bench.” – 7:25 PM

Michael Malone on Christian Braun, who he says is the 10th man right now and hard to find minutes for: “I have zero hesitation using Christian Braun in these last 18 games or in the postseason.” – 7:24 PM

Malone said he has “zero hesitation” using Christian Braun over the last 18 games and into the postseason but said it’s hard right now because he’s the 10th guy right now. Said it generally hasn’t gone well when they’ve gone 5 starters, 5 bench. – 7:23 PM

The Spurs have just two five-man lineups that have logged more than 100 minutes together this season, and both of them feature Big Jak. And ICYMI, he is a Toronto Raptor now. – 6:17 PM

Toronto is 9-3 in its last 12, and this is what the #Nuggets must prevent — forced turnovers. Toronto is one of the best at ball pressure, shrinking the floor, having high & active hands, and having that result in deflections & steals. There were 14(!) in their last game, vs. WAS pic.twitter.com/9VjAXvuNQW – 5:27 PM

Michael Porter Jr. (non-COVID illness) is questionable tonight vs. Raptors. Nuggets have recalled Jack White from the G League too. – 3:49 PM
