Stat of the Week: 10 numbers that have defined the Nuggets and Spurs series thus far

Five games into the series against the San Antonio Spurs, and it looks like the Denver Nuggets are finally remembering that they are the better team.

The Nuggets took a 3-2 series lead against the Spurs last night as Jamal Murray, Nikola Jokic, Gary Harris, and the rest of Denver’s roster appeared far more comfortable in a playoff setting than at any time before. After a Will Barton driving layup at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Nuggets led by as many as 29 points, effectively making the rest of the quarter garbage time.
