<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Nuggets home games have doubled as exorcisms lately. With their 96-87 victory over Indiana on Thursday at the Pepsi Center, Denver swept its season series from the Pacers for the first time since 1985-86. Denver (29-29) now is tied with the Los Angeles Lakers for the eighth and final Western Conference playoff spot. For the third straight home game, the Nuggets clinched a sweep they had not pulled off since the days of hair bands and Velcro sneakers. The 1980s revival started with recent wins over Boston (last sweep 1987-88) and Atlanta (1988-89). Those two teams also contributed to Denver's seven-game home winning streak. Now 12-4 under coach George Karl, the Nuggets have won a season-best five straight games.</div> Source
Nobody should be surprised. They are playing the way most people thought they were going to be playing when the season started.
