Free throw attempts in tonight’s game: DEN: 9 LAL: 27 It’s the first series-clinching win in NBA history that a team took fewer than 10 free throw attempts while its losing opponent took more than 25.
The Lakers are 0-9 when trying to avoid being swept in a best-of-7 playoff series, worst of all NBA franchises.
Players in NBA history to have a record of 20-5 or better and average 30+ points per game over a 25-game span in the playoffs: Nikola Jokic (last 25 games) Kevin Durant LeBron James Shaquille O’Neal Michael Jordan
Since the NBA went to all best-of-7 series beginning in 2003, there have been 90 instances of a team holding a double-digit lead in each of the first 3 games of a playoff series. This year's Lakers are the only ones to be down 3-0.
Nikola Jokic and Aaron Gordon tonight each had: 20+ Points 15+ Rebounds 65.0+ FG% Across nearly 4000 playoff games played in the last 60 years, they’re the first teammates to reach those marks in the same postseason game.
Since the 1976 NBA-ABA merger, there is just one NBA lineup with 20+ playoff games started together and a winning percentage of at least .800: That is the Nuggets current starting group, which owns a record of 18-4 (.818) in the postseason.
Tonight, the Nuggets became the first team in NBA history to beat a single opponent in nine straight games, despite taking at least four fewer free throw attempts in every game of the streak. Denver has taken 130 free throw attempts over that winning streak to the Lakers’ 204.
Nikola Jokic tonight: 41 points on 16-for-20 (80%) shooting. It’s the second time in NBA history that a player had 40+ points on 80+ percent shooting against a team that entered the game with 55+ wins (Gene Banks - April 13, 1983).
Michael Porter Jr. in 15 games since the All-Star Break: 47 3PM 110 REB 56.7 FG% He’s the only player in NBA history to reach each of those marks over any 15-game span: and it is the second time he’s done it (also 3/30/21 to 4/26/21).
The @nuggets went 4-0 this season against Stephen Curry. They went 3-0 against LeBron James. They're the first team in NBA history to sweep 3+ games against two different multi-time former MVPs in the same regular season.
Tonight, Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic won their 300th game together (including the playoffs). They’re the first duo in Nuggets history to win 300+ games together before turning 30 years old.
Nikola Jokić of the @nuggets is the second player in NBA history to have at least 80 points, 50 rebounds and 45 assists over a 3-game span. The other was Wilt Chamberlain from March 18-20, 1968.
Tonight was the fourth time Nikola Jokic & Michael Porter Jr. went for 25+ points and 10+ rebounds on 60% or better shooting in the same game. That is tied for the most games by any duo since the 1976 merger - Hall of Famers Hakeem Olajuwon & Ralph Sampson also had 4 such games.
Yesterday the @nuggets' Nikola Jokić: Led all NBA players in rebounds Led all NBA players in assists Led all NBA players in FG% (min. 10 FGA) He's the first player ever to lead the NBA in all 3 categories on a day with at least 10 games.
Triple-doubles while going 10-for-10 or better from the field, since NBA-ABA merger: Nikola Jokić, @nuggets: 3 (including tonight) All other players combined: 0
A take that hasn’t been brought up enough for those stressing about Denver’s last two games (their first time losing two straight games in over two months, by the way):
A take that hasn’t been brought up enough for those stressing about Denver’s last two games (their first time losing two straight games in over two months, by the way):
Michael Porter Jr. tonight: 27 points, 1 FTA Jamal Murray tonight: 29 points, 0 FTA They’re the first duo in Nuggets history to each go for more than 25 points on one or fewer free throw attempts in the same game.
About to jump on now and discuss the trade deadline and other salary cap things!

Tonight, the Nuggets became the first team in NBA history to beat a single opponent in nine straight games, despite taking at least four fewer free throw attempts in every game of the streak. Denver has taken 130 free throw attempts over that winning streak to the Lakers’ 204.
Just when you thought it was impossible to like Nikola Jokić any more, he shows up in this Despicable Me 4 Trailer
You know what's worse than people who hate analytics? People who remember a couple of terms from their 100 or 200-level classes and hope that's enough to trick readers into thinking this is analytics and not complete word vomit.
Nuggets coach Michael Malone: "I really don't even know why we're here. I'm still trying to figure that out. But we are here. So you've gotta embrace it."
Did some testing of public all-in-one metrics by replicating past work of @Neil_Paine, @ElGee35 and @taylor_snarr but made some slight alterations. The method: merge the all-in-one metric with minutes in year Y+1, sum it up for the team and check the correlation with team win%.
Caught up with Assistant GM Tommy Balcetis to discuss the @nuggets trade deadline and the general team-building philosophy. READ: nba.com/nuggets/news/i…
Now that Big Data Bowl submissions are in and the grading/evaluation phase is underway, I thought I’d provide some purely non-technical advice for future submissions. All of this content is applicable whether you are a beginner or highly advanced technically.
February 1st 2018: The last time we had a Nuggets buzzer beater and an Avs OT win on the same night.. Until yesterday (H/T: @BroncoSquatch )
@BroncoSquatch how the hell do you find that stat lol well done
Bam Adebayo says Nikola Jokic is the hardest player to defend in the NBA “The thing that I most like about him is like he don’t flop…he not tryna get 16-17 free throws” (🎥 @theOGsShow / tapthe.link/BamOGs)
MPJ locked down Luka Doncic and prevented the grift on Friday. Then he scored 27 on Saturday. I wrote on what it means for MPJ, the Nuggets, and the rest of the league, plus a little insight into his props. actionnetwork.com/nba/impact-of-…
@BroncoSquatch I’m sure they game-planned for it, but would’ve been way happier had he landed in Miami or Philly. Feels like they’re in an arms race most directly with Boston. Definitely illegal to throw in another 2nd to ensure they don’t trade him to Boston??
@BroncoSquatch @denverpost I mean, unintentionally lol
@BroncoSquatch I got it off to Jokic and Jamal.
@BroncoSquatch @3FitzSLC My dude Trey RT'ing my dude Jake.
@BroncoSquatch How do you find these super-specific stats so fast? You, sir, are a legend!
Jake’s work always a must read, the Duarte deal was interesting plus getting a first back. Wouldn’t be opposed to that return
A week away from the deadline: The Nuggets Trade Deadline Report Less to go over this year - but still answer some important questions: - What can Denver actually trade? - Can anything be done now to help keep Bruce? & More! Link to view/download: drive.google.com/file/d/13nRdaL…
Fantastic analysis about what the Denver Nuggets might do at the trade deadline, along with a look into what some of their assets and future options may be. Jake rocks
