Gordon-Jokic is a mighty duo

However, it took only a few games, to realize that Gordon's arrival was a complete success.

After adjusting to Denver's game in the first three matches, with 24 points scored in the fourth match, he was already the most efficient Nugget.

Gordon scored 24 points with great percentages (10/13), and had 7 boards completed with two assists and blocks each.

Jokic became the center with the most games with at least 10 assists, and he dimed most of his 16 assists against Magic to Gordon.
"Since he has been in the NBA, Jokic has been assisting. I hope that I will make it easier for him and that I will return the favor and find him for easy baskets as well," said Gordon. With this victory over Orlando, Denver presently stands at 31-18.
This was the fifth consecutive victory for the Nuggets, and the ninth in the last 11 matches, which led them to the fourth position in the Western Conference, leaving Los Angeles Lakers to trail by half a victory.
The Nuggets trail by two victories the third-placed Clippers, with the same number of matches played, and three and a half more than the second-placed Phoenix Suns.
Denver's roster starts with Detroit, San Antonio (two in a row), Boston, Golden State, Miami, Houston ...
