The Oklahoma City Thunder welcome the Denver Nuggets to the ‘Peake one night after both teams wrapped up solid wins. The Thunder took down the Hornets while the Nuggets enjoyed a calm 25 point victory over the Magic. While Denver enjoyed a relatively stress-free Friday evening, the Thunder, sans a number of key role players, were stretched to the limit to stave off Charlotte.
Tonight’s game will be a fantastic test for the Thunder because the Nuggets represent perhaps the most dynamic offense in the league thus far this season. Whereas the Kings’ surprising offense crept up on OKC, the same should not be said of Denver.
