NBA: Nuggets “Road 2 Gold?”

The Western Conference has a few new contenders fighting to take down the Back to Back Champions, The Golden State Warriors. The Denver Nuggets (41-18, #2 in the West) are only 1 game behind the Warriors and have a young core (Jokic, Murray, Harris) working with seasoned vets (Milsap, Lyles & Thomas) giving a rebuiling franchise great team chemistry when healthy. Head Coach Mike Malone currently has lead the Nuggets on a 8 game winning streak at home recently defeating the Los Angeles Clippers 105-88. In my opinion, with consistent shooting and smooth roster rotations, I believe the Denver Nuggets will make a deep playoff run due to avoiding the Golden State Warriors in the 1st Round. However, since the Nuggets share The same conference with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Houston Rockets, Utah Jazz & The Wild Card Los Angeles Lakers, anything is possible in the Wild Wild West.
