The Nuggets are completely and utterly uninspiring

Ryan Blackburn reacts to the Denver Nuggets 124-103 loss to the Houston Rockets that saw Nikola Jokić return to the floor and Jamal Murray exit with a nagging thumb injury. Jokić played mostly poorly with several bad turnovers, and the Nuggets struggled to get stops against one of the worst teams in the NBA. Ryan also focuses in on the issues plaguing the Nuggets post All-Star break, notably their perimeter shooting and defensive rebounding.Finally, Ryan posits that the Nuggets are still contender, but there's no reasonable way they can be the favorite given a litany of weaknesses.
