The Denver Nuggets are getting their Stride and now they add SF Wilson Chandler (14 pts vs GSW) back into the Mix for more Quality Depth in the Front Court and they run by the Warriors late.

Behind Six Players in Double Figures and 41 Points between Gallanari (21 pts) and Ty Lawson (20 pts) the Nuggets go Nugget Mascot Rocky in the 4th Frame outscoring GSW 38-17 and winning 116-105. The Warriors can't lose the Rebound Battle (- 5) and the Turnover Margin (-10) and expect to win on the Road. The Warriors were p[aced by PG Steph Curry's 29 points and 7 Helpers with PF David Lee (23 pts 13 rebs 6 helpers) and Rookie Lottery Pick Harrison Barnes (21 Points) but that wasn't nearly enough. The Nuggets Bench outscored GSW's 36-19 and the Nuggets get that from Three Players ... Chandler (14 pts), Brewer (13 pts), and Miller (12 Pts). Nuggets are a Season-High Seven Games over .500 at 23-16 and GSW drops to 23-13.

"Brooklyn has a Home Team" gets a Pivotal 4th Frame doing in the Pacers 28-11 to comeback and get by Gold Swagger 97-86 as the COO of the Barclay's Deron Williams with 22 points and 9 boards. Joe Johnson adds 20 and Nets Big Brooks Lopez chips in with 15 and 9 off the window. The Pacers ruined a Superb Effort from PF and X-Men Ohio Alum David West as he had a Game-High 27 points and 6 boards. Want to know the rebound Margin in this one Pacers 10/12...Nets 25/31 and the Nets win by Eleven go figure. The Pacers didn't stay aggressive at the Point of Attack and that's why you lose Games that fall on Half Court Execution.

The Manhattan Knicks get back on the Winning Track as Rookie Chris Copeland gets a Career Night with 22 Points  including 4 for 8 from the Land of Plenty, as the Knicks fold the New Orleans Pelicans up 100-87. The Bully of MSG..'Melo Anthony 27 and 7 with the only other Knick in Double-Figures was STAT at 12 points. Although he tried to get his like always "Get Shots" J.R. aka "John Starks 2K13 minus Patrick" added 8 points on 3 of 1 shooting. The Pelicans wee paced by Eric Gordon's 22 Points as they fall to 11-26. The Knicks move up to 24-13 with the Nets staying close at 22-15.
