Denver doesn't need to completely rely on defense as they have done in the past. Nikola Jokic needs to just run the offense, play defense, and dominate as he can. Denver will move down the court with their offense - and their super skilled bigman will excel vs Atlanta.


Putting their individual stats aside, Atlanta goes through some real scoring droughts that has led to a lot of their bad losses. None of the young players in Atlanta are in the ballpark of the Nuggets class but it's not as easy as what it appears. Trae Young has put up 16/game but is shooting just 38% and he doesn't have a lot of help. I look and expect the



Denver Nuggets to win by 12 or more here on Saturday night.
