Emmanuel Mudiay has injected some pep into Denver's offense, especially now that the Nuggets can pair him with an emboldened Gary Harris, an advanced passing center in Nikola Jokic and the resurgent Danilo Gallinari. The ball is zipping around:
The Nuggets have scored 111.5 points per 100 possessions with the quartet on the floor, a number that would trail only the Warriors in leaguewide rankings. Keep an eye on Jokic, who isn't 21 yet. He's shooting 55 percent, including 10-of-28 from deep, and he's dishing assists at an elite rate for a big man.

The fact is this stat is very impressive when you consider that the 4 men lineup includes 2 rookies and a 2nd year player. We have a bright future to look forward to.

What's I find interesting about this is that the GS Warriors are the best passing team in the league, SA is right there too. Most teams that pass can usually find a wide open man leading to the easiest shots. This bodes well for our future, hope TC increases this trend in our future players.

Realistically, the biggest letdown this season are the play of the veterans on this team. WL wise I don't think this team will make progress until all Foye, Nelson and Hickson are no longer in the rotation.

The veterans we have are showing the young guys work-ethic, team building and high character. Nelson has proved his worth to me this season, when Mudiay went down Nelson not only stepped up to help us win a few, I saw some growth from EM after he came back. Whether it was a few pointers or leaning by example I like that improvement. As for Foye and Hickson, they are both expiring and must be replaced. This season I really don't cared about the WL record as long as I see growth, development and improvement.

I agree the won loss record is not very important, and right now the growth they are showing are the most important part of this season, next year I start worrying about their record.

Yeah, agreed.
Jokic's skills are already impressive and they'll just get better. I wonder what that means for Nurkic.

You guys don't need Nurkic, send em our way. We'll take him off of yall's hands. Seriously though, you guys are quietly building a very solid core - quite impressive if you ask me. More power to ya.

It's ridicoulos how many underestimate Denver.
From the start of 2016 when Jokic entered permanently in the starting lineup, the quartet Mudiay-Harris-Gallo-Jokic (average 21.75 years old) produce the 7th best NetRating in 4-Man-Lineup Team with +11.8.
If you consider also Faried, the quintet Mudiay-Harris-Gallo-Faried-Jokic (average 22.6 years old) produce the 9th best NetRating in 5-Man-Lineup Team with +8.1, right after Gobert-Hayward-Hood-Lyles-Neto (average 22.8 years old) with +9.2.

It's incredible as the small lineup (Barton at 3 or 4) has killed 9 games of 2016

I don't known if is the "Jokic effect" but the shooting efficiency and the defense of all components of 2016 starting lineup are increased with Jokic in the Starting Five (exceptions are Faried defense).
Jokic defense is little decreased playing against the starters.
