Nuggets’ road success is why they will contend for NBA championship: Renck

Lost in the Broncos’ return to the NFL’s uppercrust, overshadowed by the Avs’ record points pace, the Nuggets have been better on the road than The Rolling Stones.

They clobbered the Kings 136-105 on Thursday night. It underscores why Denver can still compete with Oklahoma City for the NBA championship. The Thunder rolls. And rules. They boast a 24-1 record.

And yet, the Nuggets have kept them within reach because of their 11-game road win streak, despite the continued absence of starters Aaron Gordon and Christian Braun. Trust me.
