Nikola Jokic puts up a statline only Wilt has generated as the Nuggets beat the Hornets. A look at what made Jokic's performance so awe-inspiring and what he had to say about it. Then, KCP, Bruce Brown and AG brought the Attack Mode, and may have finally found the defensive spark they've been looking for. Jamal Murray battled soreness, a look at his issues, and the bench once again was horrific.

The Nuggets are 17-11. The Nuggets are third in the West. The Nuggets have the two-time reigning MVP and still haven't been whole this season.

But the Nuggets don't seem right. After a frustrating, demoralizing and depressing loss to the Lakers we return to the key question of where the blame lies for the defensive problems, how to solve them and ultimately the question of what the reason is why the Nuggets seem to care so little, even as they rack up a fine regular season record and seem as far away from a championship as ever.

Matt Moore takes a look at the season Aaron Gordon has had and how a guy in Orlando who was looking to be the main attraction became the ultimate connector and a key piece of the Nuggets' success. AG's inside finishing has been elite and it's not just on open shots. A conversation on his effort, intensity, strength, heart, and smarts as we dive into what makes AG the Nugget's second-best player so far this season.

The Nuggets played zero defense, got outshot from 3, gave up over 120 points... and won comfortably. Nikola Jokic puts on a prolific performance that Matt doesn't even think he had to work especially hard for, Bones Hyland shines in the pick and roll, Christian Braun does his thing, and the Nuggets get a home win to start their stretch of (mostly) home games. But the defense, Lord, the defense. We talk about a Nuggets team that is made of dualities, and wonder what they'll be in the end.

Denver wins vs. Utah but it came with a lot of blemishes. Do they matter? The Nuggets have a long homestand coming up, what do they need to focus on, and what's the biggest thing they need to find? Plus a stock watch on who will be up and down by Christmas.

Just when it looked like Damian Lillard had spoken loudest, Jamal Murray got the last word. The Nuggets pull of a huge comeback behind unbelievable shotmaking from Jamal Murray, a run by the bench with Christian Bruan, huge plays from Aaron Gordon and Nikola Jokic, and the dagger by the Blue Arrow. We break it all down and wonder about what the eventual playoff form of the Nuggets' rotation will be.

Denver's young core gets minutes and play well, but the Nuggets lose to the Mavericks late. Turnovers, defensive miscues, Mavericks tough shooting and turnovers seal Denver's fate in a home loss to a team on a back to back. Did I mention the turnovers? The tone of the team, the x's and o's, all that and more on Locked on Nuggets.

The Nuggets no-showed vs. the Hawks without Trae Young and got dismantled by the Pelicans. We dive into how the vibes got so bad so fast and what it means. Why is Christian Braun not playing? Should Bones have been benched? Was this a Zeke game? What's the most concerning thing about the Nuggets and why is it the defense? The pressure is rising even at 14-9 without quality wins.
