CSG Podcast Mile High Sports

Michael Porter Junior is going through some stuff right now. We all know the details of what has happened and I think that it would be important for Nuggets fans to understand this and have consideration that he might not be in the best mental shape to play basketball when he returns.

In the second half of the podcast Jeff talks about the five greatest Nuggets in their history. Not favorite, but who Jeff believes to be the best ... in order ... in all of Denver Nuggets history. Should drive some nice debate on the ol twitter machine.

It's been almost 12 years.

It's time to forgive and forget Nuggets fans. Carmelo Anthony needs to be given his flowers as a franchise changing player ... which he was. Too much water under the bridge. Too many years. It's time. Lets stop the resentment and give him the love

It's about damn time.

With the seeming inability for NBA teams to defend and increasing offensive dominance in the league, Jeff talks about the concept of hand checking. Why over the course of 26 years (from 1979-2005) the league made repeated attempts to curb it and finally made it a strict penalty only after The Malice at the Palace early in the 04-05 season. While this undoubtedly helped out offenses ... it' also made it almost impossible to guard the perimiter on defense.

On the latest Mortcast Jeff makes the proposal to allow hand checking to bring some defensive balance back to the league.

Christian Clark of NOLA.com joins Jeff to talk about the state of the New Orleans Pelicans, Zion Williamsons injury, and how the team can survive without such a dominant player. Also Jeff and Christian catch up and talk about the best of 2022 in Music and movies. Hope you enjoy as much as Jeff did talking to the one and only Christian Clark.

On the latest Mortcast, the last CSG of 2023, Jeff ends the year by talking about how Nikola Jokic is the John Carpenter of the NBA. A man who is putting up numbers and influencing the game in ways that are unpretentious but game changing. Someone who's stamp on the way we play won't be fully appreciated until long after he is done playing.

In 2022-23 Jokic is putting up The Thing type numbers and eventually the NBA media and greater NBA world will catch up.

Post Charlotte Hornets game, Nuggets head coach Michael Malone sounded as unsure of himself has he has in 8 years. On the latest Mortcast Jeff talks about how that is likely a good thing for Malone and how his acknowledgement that HE is part of the problem will help the team going forward.

Also, Jeff proposes a radicle rules change the NBA can implement that could give defenses a chance in the league again. Sure to be controversial.
