    My pick for 6th man this year. I feel he really deserves it, he will go out most nights and play his heart out for the team. Boykins lead the team with 22 points against the Lakers earlier in the week. Earl is really making a name for himself this year in Denver, look out.

    Jump's Prediction.

    Should be an interesting game. These two teams have been pleasant surprises this year and one of the coaches will likely walk away with the coach of the year. I think Carmelo will be average, and it will be a generally well rounded game for both teams.

    Denver by 7.

    I'll say the Nuggets will take this one by either 11 or 5, depending on whether Matt Harpring plays or not.

    I predict Carmelo goes for 18 and 7 and AK for 14, 12, and 3-5 blocks.

    That was a great win for us! Carmelo had 27, 7, 3 on 50% shooting, and Nene was just unbelievable. 25, 5, 2, on 9/10 shooting. Good division win for the Nugs.

    No Harp, No Sloan = No Win

    Jazz were awful in the 1st quarter, played pretty well all other quarters.

    Good win for Nuggets, almost blew it at the end

    Harpring was badly missed for Utah, and Jerry Sloan. They have a few home games coming up so Jerry should be at those game. Phil Johnson tweaked the lineup a bit, which he shouldn't of, Michael Ruffin does not deserve that many minutes.

    Great game, didn't see it though, sounds like a real both side brawl. Poor Sloan though, hope he's alright and that his wife pulls through. His team needs him. Well great game Nuggets, keep it up!
