jazz did play terrible, but i expect them to come out looking better than the embarrassment that happened last night. nuggets always seem to struggle against the jazz so hopefully they can hold them off.

I expect Utah to play better than last night, but I think the combination of the late night, 2nd game of back-to-back, and playing at Denver will be too much for Utah.

I would like to see Nene go off for 20 and 10. Need our bench to produce again tonight to give the starters rest for tomorrows Portland game. We have 5 games in 6 nights now, so a 10 man rotation will be needed:

C - Mozgoz - 18, Anderson - 14, Nene - 16
PF - Nene - 20, Harrington - 20, Gallinari - 8
SF - Gallinari - 26, Brewer - 14, Rudy - 10
SG - Afflalo - 32, Rudy - 20, Miller - 6
PG - Lawson - 30, Miller - 18

Utah looked pretty awful last night, it will be interesting to see how they respond tonight. They play at altitude too, so it shouldn't be much of a factor. I'll be at the Pepsi Center for this one, go Nuggs!

Our D can be better a bit on them shooters.

Nene should continue have a field day. Gotta tighten up the D a bit.

We should see our rooks tonight!

Since Kanter surname means "singer" I highly doubt his parents named him Anus.

E, nes? :lol:

what a steal nene was lol.

btw, if I was a denver fan I would be luckiest sportsfan of the year lol. I got into discussions because of my hatred towards kenyon "I think I'm Hakeem" Martin, karl playing small ball with 2 pgs because felton wanted minutes and blah blah blah, and also jr smith chuckling.

guess what? they all gone in one off season lol!

I loved chandler help D even tho he was not shooting well for most of his time here.

Now, can someone from this board and return the favor? (you hate artest, fisher and luke walton and lets hope for the next next year) haha

Jokes.

But really, this team is even better to watch now... when affalo gets in game form this team will be amazing.
