The Denver Nuggets score eight points in frame one as you would have though a High School Game broke out on their end. The Brooklyn Nets with all their Vets stayed the course and hammered the Nugs as the Nugget Faithful headed home early.
Behind a 59-36 lead at the break and a 53-53 draw in the 2nd half the Brooklyn Nets beat up the Denver Nuggets 112-89. Nets Starters combined for 49 points as they made extremely quick work of the Nugs from the jump. Brooklyn shot nearly 83% from the Stripe and nearly 48% from the field. They forced the Nugs into 24 turnovers hence that 8 points first quarter for Denver. The "Truth" Paul Pierce led the Nets with 18 as thirteen players had at least three points for Brooklyn.
The Nugs 24 turnovers spelled gloom and doom as they were led by 15 points from Combo Guard Randy Foye. J.J. Hickson and Kenneth the "Manimal" Faried each scored 14 as they combined to haul in fifteen boards. The Nugs shot under 40% from the field an under 30% from the Arc and under 70% from the Stripe as they could do nothing right.
The Nets move to 27-29 as they creep closer and closer to that .500 mark. The Nugs fall to 25-32 as they might be in the 2014 NBA Draft Lottery and they might need it.
