The Denver Nuggets have fallen out of the top eight of the Western Conference and one big cause has been their pick and roll defense. As a matter of fact, they have became the worst pick and roll defensive squad in the entire league.
Teams have take notice of this and are taking advantage of this aspect within the past couple of weeks. The Los Angeles Clippers were able to make great use of the double high pick and roll in the last match up where Denver blew a 17 point lead.
The Denver Nuggets are an improved defensive unit this year, but this one facet has become their achilles heel this year.
