Take note as this is only the 3rd time in the 82-game trek the defending Champs go down and they go down 112-110 in the Big 2-Liter dba Pepsi Center. Yes the Mile High Nugs used that 5,280 feet above Ocean Water this air and Italy's Danillo Gallinari and Memphis Tiger  "Will the Thrill" Barton to give Dubs just "L" #3 against 36 W's.

After the Nugs led by just one points at intermission 55-54 they stretched that lead out to 83-73 behind both Gallinari (28 pts) and Barton (21 pts). Barton's came off the bench as young fella has made himself a fine NBA Player after a few years in Rip City plating for the Blazers and coming on there.    

Dubs made a furious comeback in the 4th behind Steph Curry's 20 of his game-high 38 in the 4th but it all came up short behind a Klay Thompson potential game-winning missed Money Ball as time expired.

Denver used a +10 on the glass and a +17 in attempts from the stripe to beat the Warriors who falls to 36-3. The Mile High Nugs at 15-24 must celebrate this one as hitting the Winner's Circle has not been easy in the 2k15-16 season.

Let Demver tell it this game was huge. Let Dubs tell it it was just game #39 of 82 and we put that one in our back pocket and keep it moving. I know this Mike and Scottie and the "Zen Master" like the '72 Dolphins are a step closer to keeping that 72-10 W-L from 1995-96 and that that NBA Heads and Dubs Nation!
