Key Matchup:
Imagev.Image
You had enough rest Cambyman, controll the boards and close the zone for everybody.

Last Meeting: Jan 17, 2008, W 120-109
Kleiza was hot enough for 41 points, Camby for 24 rebounds and 11 blocks! The game was never close.

Denver: 29-18
Camby still questionable but said that he'll try to play because this game is so important to him.
Nene had a benign testicular tumor removed on January 14th. Should return 8-10 weeks from that date.
Chucky Atkins is out 2 months with a sports hernia.

Keys to winning:

Play the same type of D! we played against the Blazers and penetrate because the Jazz can't defend layups and 1on1 players.

Last 5 Games:
W Portland
W Charlotte
W Memphis
L New Orleans
L Dallas

Utah: 31-18
Kirilenko is day-to-day with flu but expect him to play because this is an important game!
Jason Hart out with a Lower back inflammation.

Last 15 Games:
W New Orleans
W Memphis
W Washington
W New York
W San Antonio
W Houston
W Sacramento
W LA Clippers
W LA Clippers
L Denver <-
W Milwaukee
W Orlando
W Phoenix
W Indiana

As you can see the Jazz are RED HOT and their streak would have been even bigger if they didn't faced us. They beat Pheonix and Orlando before we beat them. Looks like we know supermans kryptonite.

If The Playoffs Started Today:

How much longer before Chucky is supposed to return? Shouldn't that hernia be almost healed?

Anyway I'm worried this is going to be an ugly game. Even with Camby there, Boozer tends to kill Denver in the paint, and having Korver there means the Nugs are prone to getting lit up from outside.

What's Kleiza gotta do tonight to have a better game then he had against them the last time? It is kind of hard to top.

I hope we play all 4 quarters, and don't give up 60 something first half points. It will be a tough game.

Jizz Fans........have the Jizz been playing great because the schedule tipped their way, or do you think it is more because of the acquisition of Korver? Hopefully, it won't matter in a few hours because I would like to see that streak your on come to an end.

The "Jizz" to answer you question, have been playing better as a combination of both an easier schedule and the addition of Korver. He spreads the floor and allows Dwill and Boozer more space to operate. Dwill is on an All-Star snub mission as evidenced by his beat down of CP3 this week and should look to continue to do so against the McThugets.

:clap:

Play D and better D than against Portland, because Jazz are better than the Jail Blazers on offense, they have more weapons. Melo needs to have a big night, because I highly doubt LK will go for 41 again. He can't turn the ball over like he did vs Blazers. Time to put the end to the streak!

Good luck tonight, hopefully Camby plays. I expect a playoff type atmosphere and I pray that the Jazz will play much better than last time. :pray:

This is by far the biggest game of the season against our division rival the jazz, i expect the nuggets to come out on top since were playing at home and im sure the players know this game is big, should be a good game.

Camby is supposedly going to play tonight, hopefully he actually tries too....that'd be like Christmas.

Let's hope for a good game fellas....

The Jazz didn't really seem to give a damn about playing Denver and just seemed mentally out of it.

That s*** game triggered the streak and now both teams are facing a HUGE HUGE game.

May the best team win.
