Nikola Jokic Looks Like the MVP, Kevin Durant Thriving in Houston and Nico Harrison Out in Dallas | The Dunker Spot

Episode Summary

Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones discuss why Nikola Jokic looks like the MVP, take a look at how the Rockets run their offense and react to Nico Harrison getting fired from the Dallas Mavericks.

Episode Notes

Nekias Duncan and Steve Jones roam the baseline with some Western Conference love (Nuggets, Rockets) and some surging teams in the East (top-seeded Pistons, rising Raptors).

Then, they react to the breaking news out of Dallas — bye-bye, Nico Harrison — before diving into an odd Memphis Grizzlies season. Finally, they close with some well-deserved player shoutouts.
