After two games where the Jazz man handled the Nuggets this year, Denver finally gave Utah a taste of their own medicine. The Nuggets blew out the Jazz in front of the Pepsi Center crowd by a final score of 107-83.
Denver is starting to play consistent, stifling defense and it is a great sight. After holding the defending champions to 3-27 shooting from deep and under 90 points, the Nuggets followed it up by holding the Jazz to a horrible 32.1% shooting from the field. The potential defensively has been their all season long, it has just been a matter of getting things to click on that side of the floor.
