Utah Jazz - Denver Nuggets Game Thread.

The frontcourt matchup / keeping Denver's bigs out of the paint will be key.

But I'm looking forward to the PG matchup, Tinsley vs. Miller. A couple of guys from the 90s.

I hope they guard each other, I hate cross-matchups.

Denver leads the league in points by the paint, by a lot, so holding Denver's bigs to a draw is crucial.

Oh, Lawson is starting.

He drove on Tinsley and made a pull-up.

Tinsley steals, passes to Foye on the fast break, who scores.

Tinsley backs down Lawson and gets fouled.

Lawson steals the inbounds pass, and makes a layup. 45-55 in the 3rd.

Ok, the Jazz-Denver game was broken open in the 3rd quarter. Denver's bigs were too much on defense.
