The Denver Nuggets and Oklahoma City Thunder square off for the third time on Tuesday night in the Pepsi Center. The Nuggets have already won the first two meetings of the season and the Thunder need a win in order not to concede the tie-breaker to the Nuggets as well as to maintain their own pursuit of home court. The Nuggets have a 3 game lead on the Thunder and can lock up the record tie-breaker with a win tonight.
Denver has the best home-court record in the league at 26-4, so the Thunder have a steep challenge ahead of them.
