David Adelman didn’t try to do too much in his first win as Denver Nuggets interim head coach last night.

The Nuggets won vs the Sacramento Kings to snap a four-game losing streak last night, and Adelman made sure to give those around him significant credit. This was a team effort, and the level of effort was distinctly different in Denver’s bounce back performance. There’s only so much a coach can do, but Adelman pushed the right buttons to help the Nuggets stop their current slide. It was a good first impression.

On the latest episode of Pickaxe and Roll, Ryan Blackburn breaks down the Denver Nuggets win vs the Sacramento Kings, the first win for David Adelman replacing Michael Malone as head coach. The Nuggets played with a higher level of effort and executed the game plan well, with four starters scoring 20 or more and Jalen Pickett adding 18 points on five made threes.

Ryan discusses the game, the ramifications in the playoff seeding, and what’s next for Denver.
