The Denver Nuggets are back to being on fire and are looking for revenge against LeBron’s Lakers, the team the gave them their first loss this year.
I grew up watching NBA with my dad. Mostly because I didn’t have a choice. At least that’s how it started. I started to love basketball and it was made easier watching the Showtime Lakers. My dad took me to seeKareem Abdul-Jabbar‘s last game, same forMagic Johnson. Maybe this is why the current state of the franchise is positively gag-inducing. Maybe it’s that I’m now a fan of the Denver Nuggets.
The Nuggets will host the L.A. Lakers and I can’t wait. The L.A. squad is on aLeBron Jamesled run but it won’t be enough to stop the Denver boys and it isn’t because of the altitude. It’s because the Nuggets are better.
Key one:be better. The Lakers will be coming into the mile-high fresh off a loss to the Magic who the Denver Nuggets just beat by 25.
Gary Harrisis questionable to play for the Nuggets but they handled the same trial well against the Thunder. If Harris doesn’t start we can expectTorrey Craigto start and bring the same energy he brought againstRussell Westbrook.Jamal Murrayhas been strong and playing againstLonzo Ballseems to bring out a competitive spirit where he plays his “A” game. That would maybe be a budding rivalry if Murray wasn’t so much better. As it is it’s more laughable.
Key two:be better. Watch out someone might dribble the ball around you in a basketball game.
LeBron is LeBron and he is a force. He is less scary with the intense defense the Nuggets have been playing.Paul MillsapandMason Plumleehave provided some brutal physical play that has intensified a what can be devastating defense when executed by the Nuggets properly.
Key three:LeBron doesn’t have the support he needs to tackle the reignited Denver Nuggets. The Lakers withoutRajon Rondohave been a turnover fiasco. Denver can take advantage of the Lakers loose play.
