The Denver Nuggets finally ended their championship drought last season as they were led to their first NBA title in franchise history by the dynamic duo of Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray.
Considering the fact that the Nuggets are the reigning champions of the NBA, they are undoubtedly one of the best teams in the league this season.
A key factor that makes the Nuggets so dangerous is their ability to take advantage of their opponents’ mistakes during games.
The Nuggets showcased this ability during their recent matchup against the Boston Celtics, who have the best record in the NBA right now.
Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla shared his honest reaction to the team’s recent loss vs. the Nuggets, via Celtics on NBC Sports Boston on Twitter.
“We had our chances, and when you play against another good team, those things get magnified,” Mazzulla said.

Mazzulla is currently the head coach of the team who has the best record in the NBA.
But it doesn’t mean they will get easy wins over every team in the league, especially against a franchise like the Nuggets.
Mazzulla claimed that the Celtics had their chances to win the game, but they failed to capitalize on them.
On the other hand, the Nuggets didn’t fail to make the best use of their chances.
Ultimately, it resulted in a 115-109 win for the Nuggets.
As for the Celtics, they are now on a 2-game losing streak after their 11-game winning streak was snapped by the Cleveland Cavaliers in the previous game.
The Celtics should try to improve their flaws after back-to-back defeats to ensure they play better come playoff time.
