15 Thoughts vs. Denver 3/5

We're back, tan and ready to take over the top of the Northwest Divison! We received a nice homecoming present last night with the comeback win over the Pacers and are looking forward to tonight's battle. The Nuggets are pretty heavily favored which doesn't make a ton of sense, but we'll go with it. Maybe the "bench drama" unfolding with Carmelo Anthony will be the downfall of the Nuggets this evening?
