| If the Nuggets win tonight that is what we call a streak. | Etc… | Charlotte wants to trade Lance, but can’t. Denver doesn’t want him. |
Lance Stephenson has missed the last two games and coincidentally the Charlotte Hornets have won those two games. The Nuggets are also looking to win their third straight game and yes, folks, that would qualify as a streak.
The last game against the Pacers was not pretty, but sometimes you take what you can get as long as a W is rung up in the win column at the end of the day. The Nuggets did get a season high from Danilo Gallinari on Saturday, with 19 points and he was promptly added to the injured list with a knee injury (torn meniscus). The kid cannot buy a break right now and that is incredibly sad. I would say this is a big loss, but the Nuggets have won games that he played and basically contributed nothing.
I feel bad for the kid, but hopefully he'll come back healthy and can contribute after the first of the year.
Prediction
Ty Lawson is too much for the Hornets and Chandler is hotter than Charlotte… well, let's not get me fired. Nuggets takes this one, 104-95.
