Be as effusive with your praise of Nikola Jokic as you dare. He has earned it. The uber-Brad Miller is a sport-changing talent, an all-timer, someone with a gravitational effect on the entire league.
Be fairly liberal in your appraisal of this year's Denver Nuggets, too. They are replete with offense, sporting a colossal seven players averaging double figures in scoring, all formulated around their historically good offensive lynchpin.
The fun is there. The scoring is there. The aesthetics are there. And the results, by and large, are there as well. However, the defence is not. And it is difficult to see how the Nuggets can find a way using the personnel that they have now to stem the tide.
