Denver Nuggets (14-14) @ Memphis Grizzlies (12-16)

FedEx Forum - Memphis, TN
TV: TSOH

Team Trivia: Darrell Arthur and Kosta Koufos were swapped in the offseason. Former head coaches George Karl and Lionell Hollins both received a large portion of the votes for coach of the year, with Karl taking home the trophy. Despite leading both their clubs to the post-season last year, neither were brought back this season.

George Karl led his team to the highest win total in franchise history - better than all 7 previous Nuggets teams that won the NBA title. His first coach of the year award in his long hall of fame career, and fired a month later. if that's not the worst example of "what have you done for me lately?" ever then I want to know what is.

New regimes always have to stamp their own identity to everything. Sometimes to the detriment building success.

Playing against Denver is anything but easy. It's a wonder the Grizz were able to sustain the attempted rallies the Nuggets attempted until the fourth quarter. A win like this should motivate the Grizz to hold on tight and maybe get a good run going.

PHX, Chi-town, and Detroit are potential game winners. Denver and SA will be hard ones to decide on.
