    is on NBATV right now. They are gonna be tough, i just don't think they can go injury free like last year. They are only a minute away from one of those head cases losin' it!

    Not to mention the fact they lost half of their bench too.

    I think losing Kleiza and Jones will hurt them.

    Thanks for the in depth analysis, you should replace Rice with your insight this year after that one!

    JR Smith is the big X factor for Denver. If he can keep his head together and become the two way player he has the ability to be, then Denver is really tough. If instead he chooses to continually jack up ill advised threes then he will loose them as many games as he wins.

    It should be interesting to see which JR Smith shows up.

    Nuggets have lost some players and Martin and Chauncey are a year older. I don't think they will be as good as last year (but they were good last year).

    I would think the Blazers should improve enough to surpass the Nuggets this year.

    Good points, but he's gonna have to wait awhile. Didn't he get suspended for the first few games?
