I love the comeback shot by Melo, but what I like even more is the look on Durant's face. You just don't get a look like that on a player's face that often. Complete shock.

The massive change in emotion in just a few minutes is pretty nuts. He went from on top of the world to completely crushed.

How about we hang 168 on these guys again? That would make me happy.

Never seen Nene more happy.

Afflalo is probably going to start on Durant. He's a tough matchup for anybody, but it seems like the Nuggets in particular. He's just got too much size for AA. He has turned the ball over a decent amount, though maybe AA can bother him.

I'm not a big throwback guy, but the Nuggets need to be wearing those rainbow skyline uni's at least a few times a season. Those things are just badass.

Great first half. Finally the Nuggets impose their will early, and don't force themselves to have to come back later in the game. I'd love to push this lead out of reach in the third quarter.

Melo is OKC's worst nightmare. They just literally have nobody who can guard him. Birdman had a great first half.

Great half!

If the Nuggets have learned about themselves and rising teams like OKC over these years is... if they want to be a great team, they must increase that 15 pt halftime lead to 20, 25... not let them come back.

The difference between a great team and good is great teams increase their leads... cmon Nuggets do it!!!

Good first half ! I am looking at box score away from home at work. Anything spotted on this first half that helping the team to have a good start?

Got a feeling Melo gonna go nuts tonight, but lets see how close i can guess on this. Now gotta have good 3rd to pull away for safe W.

[MHZ]

Not quite as solid of an effort in the second half as the first half, but I'll take it. Nice to control a game pretty much throughout - seems like it's been forever since the Nuggets did that.

2-0

I'm going with Federica Ridolfi again against Houston, unless somebody has a new recommendation.
