Forrest Gump would like this series a lot. Why? Because there will be lots and lots of RUNNING.

In their four matchups this season...
Warriors-Nuggets series preview
The Nuggets are a better team than the Warriors. They’ve won 10 more games. They’re one of the hottest teams in the NBA over the last four or five months. And they dominate at home. I can see the Warriors pulling off the upset (out of the Spurs, Thunder and Nuggets, the Nuggets were the most favorable opponent), but there’s no denying the Nuggets are the superior team. Here...

Pick up Ty if he was dropped, it’s the Law, son!
What a long strange trip it’s been. Who sang that? I know that’s a song, I’m pretty sure anyway. The Grateful Dead! I once saw them at the Meadowlands in New Jersey way, way back in like 2005. In case you don’t know, The Meadowlands was also known as Giants Stadium which is now known as Met Life Stadium. Corporate sell out! Anyway, enough about the Grateful Dead, all I remember...

Video: Young Diaw goes one-on-one with Nuggets' Fournier
Talk about a blast from the past with this video gem of San Antonio Spurs' Boris Diaw and Denver Nuggets' Evan Fournier.
Before Fournier ever stepped on an NBA court, he shot a video (which shows him just as a kid) in France with a very young and slim Diaw where they both showed off some on-court magic. Aside from Boris getting up for some dunks and showing off his dribbling...

Evan Fournier is a name you’d be wise to monitor down the final stretch run. The Nuggets under the radar 2012 first-round selection (#20 overall) has burst onto the scene over the past ten days on a suddenly crippled roster. In his last four games Fournier is averaging 14 points on 55% shooting, three assists against a single turnover...

With capable backups at the ready at point guard, the Nuggets try to adjust without Ty Lawson on Wednesday night when they play a surging Utah Jazz team fighting to make the playoffs.

Saturday night, the Clippers and Nuggets met in the neutral City of Las Vegas at Mandalay Bay to play what was not only this season’s first game between two NBA teams, but the first ever NBA game to be played on the Vegas Strip.

Top ten Denver Nuggets under age 25
With no bona-fide superstar, the Denver Nuggets managed to give the Lakers a run for their money in the 2012 playoffs, forcing a Game 7 in Los Angeles.
