Denver will force the guards of Golden State to have to choose the outside or middle of the court. The Nuggets need to be sharp when moving the ball around outside - that connection will be the most imperative thing here. We know what the starting frontcourt of Denver can do - they score 45pts and grab 20 boards between them. The Nuggets are great at creating a problem for opposing bigs, and that wont be an issue. They need to show something here, at home.




Golden State has struggled defensively on the road all year along and have had their share of issues with stopping teams putting it up outside and they have not been able to keep teams off the boards, either.



Denver gets a win here on their home court.
