This should be the night Booker gets 40. He loves high elevation so he should elevate his game.

Suns likely starters

Nuggets likely starters

Booker last game vs Nuggets


Booker gets ejected!


Good luck charms!

I'll be at the game! Visiting a cousin in Denver and managed to grab a couple of tickets.

Am I the only one who enjoys watching away games more than home?

How long are you there for? It's a great city. I wonder if it's snowing there right now.

Denver is a different world from Phoenix; both have their own charm for sure. I have relatives in both and enjoy them equally. 8-)

I'm looking for this to be an interesting game. I'll give the nod to the Suns' guards and the Nuggets' forwards. My biggest question is Chandler vs Jokic. I don't have a good feel for the difference in benches. I haven't seen enough of the Suns and Denver has pulled players in and out of the starting lineup, leaving the bench sometimes confusing. :nod:

The standings says Denver wins, especially at home, but the Suns are a team that can beat Denver - but it's going to take LOTS of scoring. Should be fun! :starwars Let the battle begin!

It should be a good one. I've lived in both Phoenix and Denver. I agree, definitely some big differences. I love Denver though. I had a lot of fun living there.

I love Colorado in the summer and Phoenix in the winter. I hate dealing with ice and snow more than the heat in the summer.

He played really bad the last meeting against the Nuggets, hopefully he brings his A game tonight.

I've never been to Colorado...
Just hoping Booker drops 40. If we lose, that's fine. If we win by a buzzer beater from Booker, that's fine too. :D

There isn't that much ice in Denver. The snow usually even dries up by the afternoon. Of course I moved from Minneapolis to Denver so it didn't seem icy in comparison.

Booker can shoot those threes in his sleep. Love to see more of those catch and shoot style shots for him.

I think out of all the teams with a reasonable chance at the 8 seed, I'd prefer the Nuggets. I kind of like them. I guess Cousins or AD would be nice to see as well. Nuggets are just fun to watch though.

I was just gonna say, "has he worn one before?" I don't recall seeing that.

Maybe it's just bad broadcast FOXAZ production, but the Nugget's court is ugly bright...practically blown out at times. Oh well.

Love the commentary "Len missing that dunk"

well I think the Nuggets would match up well against the Warriors. At least better than the Kings or Pelicans. Though it would be nice to see if the Blazers can land a big (maybe Whiteside) and make the playoffs. I feel like Lillard hasn't been nearly as focused on basketball this year.
