Stiffs Night Out, January 21 for Nuggets at Knicks
Excuse my while I gush for a bit about our Denver Nuggets team. A team that just beat a highly dysfunctional (at the moment) Kings team on a second night of a back to back in Denver ... but nonetheless it was a refreshing and exhilarating win that reinforces why I believe this Nuggets team may be a serious threat in the NBA this season
Are the Kings really trying too hard?
The Nuggets dismantled the tired and weary kings. Kosta Koufos recorded his first career double double, everyone scored, and Faried made the crowd ooh & awe.
The Kings go into Denver reeling after another noncompetitive loss.
Andre Miller's return to the Nuggets has been a godsend. Not only is he filling up the stat sheets, but this current team is built to showcase his talents.
