Why An Aggressive Nikola Jokić Changes Everything for the Denver Nuggets | DNVR Nuggets Podcast Live

November 5, 2026 · 1 h 1 min

Show notes

Nikola Jokić dominated Toronto by attacking quickly, challenging double-teams and putting his scoring touch on display. But his comments about physicality raise a bigger question: is the NBA taking away the advantage of size in the post? The DNVR Nuggets crew debates what needs to change—from officiating to how Denver gets Jokić the ball.

Plus, Christian Braun’s underrated passing, Bryce Hopkins’ place in the Nuggets’ circle of trust, and what it would take to earn a standard contract. Then we get ready for Mexico City: trip predictions, our taco-meter and a fan hangout with more than 50 RSVPs. Follow along on social and join us for Saturday’s show from Mexico!
