Random thought that just occurred to me. Last time I was here for Nets-Nuggets:
-Ball Center was still Pepsi Center
-It was Iman Shumpert’s first game with the Nets
-It was the last game Kyrie Irving played in before his shoulder impingement shut him down for roughly two months. – 3:42 PM

I’m gonna assume the Nets will start Day’ron Sharpe today to guard Nikola Jokić with Blake Griffin as the backup center.
That has ramifications for the backup center battle. Denver could go big with Cousins like last matchup vs Nets (+2 in 12:42) or continue with JaMychal Green. – 2:26 PM
