The Denver Nuggets are rounding into form just in time for the playoffs. After last season’s first-round-seven-game series loss against the Lakers, the Nuggets reshuffled in the off season picking up Andre Igudola. But a nice connection is developing between point guard Ty Lawson and forward Kenneth Faried.
Check this half-court ally from Ty to Kenneth during Nuggets vs. Suns.
Denver wins 108-93. The Nuggets are currently sitting in the fifth spot. If the playoffs began tomorrow they’d be facing off against the Memphis Grizzlies. That would be an entertaining series. Denver currently leads the season series 2-1.
Next up for the Nuggets, the New York Knicks are in town. The Knicks are coming off of a blowout loss to the Golden State Warriors 92-63. Denver is deadly at home this season. They’ve currently won 13 straight games at home.
