87.5: Why it's time for the Denver Nuggets to panic | The big number

Subscribe to The Big Number

On this week's episode of “The Big Number,” Tom Haberstroh and Dan Devine dig into the stats and make bold predictions about the Denver Nuggets.

First, Tom is very concerned about how bad Denver's offense was with Russell Westbrook on the field. He's starting to worry about their ability to make the playoffs this year.

Tom compares the 35-year-old Westbrook to other similar guards to show how unique it is for him to still be playing in the NBA at this age, while Dan points out that the Nuggets have bigger problems in their starting lineup.

Dan brought up a statistic of his own that showed Westbrook may finally be losing enough of his trademark and athleticism that it could be a problem. Meanwhile, Tom worries whether the Nuggets have any chance of getting back into contention if their highest-paid players don't start playing better.

Finally, the guys end the show like they did last week by picking sides on some fun over/unders.
