episode Nuggets on brink of elimination. Time to show up or face roster deconstruction cover

Description

Nuggets went from being up 19 in game 2 to seize control of the series before blowing the lead and the game. They followed that up with an embarrassing performance in game 3 to go down 2-1 to the Wolves. The stakes for the Nuggets going into game 4 have never been higher. Nuggets offense has vanished vs a Rudy Gobert led defense. Falling this short of expectations will have the Nuggets FO and Owners asking big questions.
