The Nuggets have taken advantage of two teams that played the
night before ? Dallas and Utah. Now the tables are turned against
them, as they played last night while Portland is rested and
home. Nene had a night last night for the Nuggets. Nene won?t
have a night against the Blazers, who have better interior
presence (Camby, Wallace, Aldrige and even Kurt Thomas) and
block shots. His aging bones will be sore in the second of
back-to-backs.
