The Denver Nuggets were struggling and unfortunately the Lakers had to be on the other end when they came out the slump. A 61-60 Lakers lead turned into a Track Meet in the 2nd half and the Lakers if it was the 400 got lost in the back 200 to the 300.

The Nugs after being down by 1 at the break put up some 77 points as the Lakers put up 54 and you know the rest of the story. The Nugs had seven players in double figures and "KRYPTOnate" Robinson led the Nugs with 21 points as both Ty Lawson and Timofey Mozgov net 20 points apiece as Law Dawg also had twelve helpers. Wilson Chandler added 17 as did the "MAN-imal" Kenneth Faried to go along with his 13 boards. The Nugs shot an amazing 53 plus % from the field and was +27 with the Money Ball.

The Lakers Money Ball was just 3 of 21 and that was the huge discrepancy in points . Pau Gasol led the Lake Show with 25 points and ten boards as Jodie Meeks had 23 points and Nick at Nite 2.0 added 21. The Lakers just didn't have enough firepower to hang with the Nugs once the Nugs got it rolling. The Lakers since being 13-14 are 1-6 in their last seven games. The Nugs get out of a funk as they were at one point 14-9 as they move to 16-17 and do the math.
