Game day has officially arrived as the Denver Nuggets open the 2021-22 season tonight in Phoenix against the Suns. The Nuggets seem poised to make a title run this season, which hopefully will begin with a little payback tonight against the Suns. Phoenix eliminated Denver in four games last season in the Western Conference Semifinals, which I’m sure is still fresh on the mind of some Nuggets players.
The Nuggets did not have the best preseason as they went just 1-4 with a lone victory coming against the Oklahoma City Thunder in Denver’s final exhibition game.
