It took a little time, perhaps too much time, but the Denver Nuggets got a win against the Utah Jazz last night in comeback fashion. Nikola Jokic had a great offensive game, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Cam Johnson hit big shots, and Jamal Murray set the franchise record for threes in a single season in the clutch moments. Defense was extremely lacking, but the Nuggets got it done.<\/p>\n

On the latest episode of Pickaxe and Roll LIVE from Number Thirty-Eight, Ryan Blackburn and Danny Bailey break down the Denver Nuggets close win over the Utah Jazz. Jamal Murray set a big record, Nikola Jokic shined (offensively) and Tim Hardaway Jr. made huge shots in the fourth quarter to give the Nuggets life.<\/p>\n
