Welcome back to MoodSwings presented by Landmark Lincoln…your new favorite sports therapy show. The second half of the season didn’t start the way Denver hoped. After the All-Star break, the Nuggets stumble and slide to 4th in the West — falling to a .500 Clippers squad and raising real concerns about late-game execution. Is it fair to put the blame on Jamal Murray’s clutch struggles, or is it time to have a bigger conversation about Nikola Jokic and the team’s championship urgency? Plus, the NBA is once again tackling tanking. Proposed lottery changes could reshape how teams rebuild — from freezing odds at the trade deadline to limiting consecutive top picks. But do these fixes address the real issue, or is the league’s 82-game season the bigger problem? In this episode of Mood Swings, we break down:
- Denver’s shaky post–All-Star restart
- Jamal Murray’s clutch reliability debate
- Why Jokic deserves scrutiny too
- New anti-tanking proposals and their impact
- The case for shortening the NBA season
- How fewer games could improve health, intensity, and fan engagement
Is the integrity of the game at risk? And would a shorter season actually fix what’s broken?
