Denver need to keep him close in the paint, and keep him off the glass. He averages a career double - double. Stat Comparisons. Keys to the game <u>Denver</u> <ul> [*]Force the outside shot [*]Rebound [*]Minimise turnovers [/list] <u>Clippers</u> <ul> [*]Get into the paint [*]Get to the line [/list] Jump's Prediction I expect this to be a close game. Earlier in the year, Clippers beat Denver at home, but then we bounced back and beat them at home. Camby and Brand will need to be massive tonight, so look out for high rebounding statistics. I think Melo will have an average game, scoring within the 20 points mark. Denver 99 Clippers 98
Nice preview Jump. I say the Nuggets take this one in a nail-biter. Both teams have been playing great ball lately and this game could go anyway. I expect good games from Carmello Anthony, Earl Boykins, Marcus Camby on the Nuggets side and Elton Brand,Quentin Richardson, and Cory Maggette. I'm going to say Nuggets by 4.
