Another clutch loss, to a team they should have beaten, in a game they should have won. Injuries may have riddled them this season, but the Nuggets can't win the close games as they have in the past. And if you can't close out games, you aren't going to win a championship, either. It's a massive problem for a team that still has aspirations of another title.
