Pickaxe and Roll: Denver Nuggets appear playoff ready despite copious injuries

The Denver Nuggets haven’t been great in first quarters lately, but they’ve still won six games in a row and are a better second half team than before. Nikola Jokic set the tone in yesterday’s win vs the Golden State Warriors, and the Nuggets followed his example nicely. Despite some injury absences, the Nuggets are rounding into form a bit, and they’re rediscovering how to win at just the right time.

On the latest episode of Pickaxe and Roll, Ryan Blackburn breaks down the Denver Nuggets win over the Golden State Warriors in which they won 70-40 in the second half. Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray appear playoff ready. Are the rest of the Nuggets ready to meet the charge? Ryan discusses the Nuggets injuries, as well as the schedule for them and the rest of the Western Conference playoff squads.
