Denver's downfall came from all the turnovers. They had 21 turnovers in this game compared to Portland's 14. That said, one of the biggest keys to a Denver win will be taking care of the ball.

The Nuggets obviously have their backs to the wall and must win this game to tie up the series. I am still very concerned about the status of Kanter, which leads me to believe that the Nuggets can and will pull this game out. We are taking the Denver Nuggets plus the points to take this series back to the mile-high even up at 2-2.
