It used to be that if a team flew into the Mile High City, having played the night before, facing a rested Nuggets team......they were gonna get run off the court. Tonight, a creaky Brooklyn team fit that mold, having gotten spanked last night by a depleted Portland team.......but whipped the Nuggets. Denver scored a total of 8 points in the first quarter. Count 'em--8. This is a team that we have to look very closely at as being a total lemon. Like Philly, they may not be competitive. The NBA is such a crappy product that we have to look for opportunities to cash in on total Dogshite teams. Denver may be such a team. I will report back.......
When NBA players score 8 points in the first 12 minutes at home in a game they pretty much need to win.......I would guess hangovers are involved. This team is toast.
