Roundtable: Nuggets offense has been great, but what’s wrong with the defense?

The Denver Nuggets currently pose a record of 17-10 and are just a game and a half out of first place in the Western Conference standings. With that being said, the Nuggets offense has been exceptional, but their defense has been a whole different story.

Denver currently holds the second best offensive rating in the NBA, but they have the third worst defensive rating. It’s no secret how important defense it to winning championships and if the Nuggets have their sights on their first title in franchise history, they’re certainly going to have to make some adjustments on that end of the court.
