The Denver Nuggets made up for their blunder from the other night in Sacramento. While they only beat the lowly Brooklyn Nets, it is a step in the right direction to kick off the second half of the season.
With Portland and Sacramento creeping up on the 8th seed, it was imperative for the Nuggets to win this game. With the win, Denver snapped a 5 game win streak in Denver for the Nets and should be able to string some games together to keep their 8th position.
I will admit, once again, I was completely wrong in my Nikola Jokic prediction.
