Celtics vs Nuggets / Jan 19 / 2023-2024 Season

The Celtics lose their first home game of the season as the defending champion Nuggets come to Boston and get a 102-100 win. Derrick White led the Celtics scoring with 24 points, and Jayson Tatum also had 22 points and 8 rebounds. But Jamal Murray’s 35 points combined with Nikola Jokic’s 34 points were the difference in this one.  ​​Chud and Doug are joined by recurring guest and NBA analyst, Jeff Cupka, to break down all of the action and take a look around some big stories in the league including Siakam’s debut for the Pacers and Haliburton’s return, trade rumors, and an extremely unfortunate tweet from Fred Katz of the Athletic.  Follow the show on Twitter/X: @ChuddysCorner @KingChuddy @Doug_Outs @_nickpiraino  Like, subscribe, and rate the podcast!  (0:00 - 9:23) - Game recap (9:24 - 22:33) - The Jays vs Jokic and Murray (22:34 - 38:02) - 4th quarter breakdown (38:03 - 48:31) - Coaching chess (48:32 - 56:00) - Final game notes (56:01 - 1:09:36) - Around the NBA: Siakam debuts, Haliburton returns, Jazz staying put, NBA trade rumors, Terry Rozier) (1:09:37 - 1:15:18) - Celtics @ Rockets preview
