“I’ve been playing basketball a long time,” Nuggets forward Cam Johnson said. “I’ve never seen that one.”

“When you can sit in a room and watch film with LeBron, AD and (Rajon) Rondo and call them out,” Jared Dudley says, “it’s something that very few coaches have the guts to be able to do, the credibility.”

Jokic’s triple-double streak ended one assist shy of the NBA record to start a season.

You probably forgot that it existed as soon as it ended last year, and you were probably reminded of it when you turned on the television Friday night and saw the Nuggets playing on a bright red court.

Four games into the Nuggets’ 82-game season, an 8-minute, 27-second stretch means little. But it might mean a lot in April.

The Nuggets’ offense might be the best carnival ride in Denver.
