After a quick press conference, some fairwells the nuggets had to get on the court for the first time with out Carmelo Anthony. The playoff guarrenty seemed pritty unlikely at first, but with the way guys stepped up it nows making me feel optomistic about it. Heres the box score from the game with the final score Nuggets 120 Grizzlies 107:
