Game Thread: Denver Nuggets @ Utah, Monday, November 11, 7:00 pm MST

[Kenwood]

I'm seriously cherry-picking starting this game thread; someone has to start the thread for a game the Jazz could actually win.

In this corner, the Denver Nuggets (1-4), who traded Andre Iguodala and currently have Wilson Chandler, Danilo Gallinari and Javale McGee injured. Projected starters:
Ty Lawson

Randy Foye

Jordan Hamilton and Kenneth Faried

Timofey Mosgov

And in this corner, your Utah Jazz (0-7), which let most of its veterans walk to give these guys their big chance:

Except for Burke and Burks (who plays starter minutes) those are also the projected starters. Close enough.

PREDICTION: Denver is probably in an even worse situation now with three starters out, and they just found out about McGee over the weekend. Jazz finally pull off a win in the ESA.

I'm rooting for it, I'd like to see a win. I'm really hoping for one of the core members just getting frustrated and going for 30+ points, showing a little fight. Heck let's put Burke in with an injured finger, he'd still be a major improvement over Tinsley and Lucas.

We've said this twice before, but if they can't win this one at home, when will they?

At home against the 2nd worst team in the NBA. This is about as winnable as it'll get this season.

Bold prediction: Utah wins by double digits.

Once rivals, always rivals. Even at the bottom.
