Game Notes
When last these two teams met 9 days ago, the Celtics were able to win their seventh straight game in a crazy triple overtime affair.  Unfortunately, the 3 overtimes took so much out of the team that the streak ended the next night as they lost to the Bobcats.  The red hot Nuggets their own 9 game win streak stopped by that triple OT loss. 

After the loss to the Bobcats, the Celtics got back on the winning track with a win over the Bulls and so come into this game looking for their second straight win.   The Nuggets, however skidded into the break with 3 straight losses on the road.  They are looking to right the ship as well as to avenge the loss in Boston as they return home again for this game. 

The Celtics are 8-2 in their last 10 games while The Nuggets are 7-3 in their last 10.  The Nuggets have one of the best home court advantages playing in the thin mile high air and boast a 22-3 home record.  The Celtics have struggled somewhat on the road with an 8-15 record.   

This game begins a 5 game road trip for the Celtics and in the back of their minds, I'm sure they will be thinking of having to face the Lakers on Wednesday in yet another back to back set.  The Celtics signed Terrence Ross on Monday but it's not clear whether he will be able to play in this game. 

Key Matchups

(http://i.cdn.turner.com/si/.e1d/img/4.0/global/basketball/nba/players/3253.jpg)  vs  (http://i.cdn.turner.com/si/.e1d/img/4.0/global/basketball/nba/players/4468.jpg)
Paul Pierce vs Danilo Gallinari
Gallinari is averaging 17.1 points per game and is capable of hitting shots from the perimeter as well as getting to the basket.  He has a height advantage on Pierce which may make guarding him more difficult for the Captain.   However, Pierce's recent play may make it difficult on Gallo if it continues.  In their last meeting at TD Garden, Pierce put up a triple double of 27 points, 14 rebounds and 14 assists while Gallinari posted 18 points and 10 rebounds.

Brandon Bass vs Kenneth Faried
Bass will have his hands full with Faried who has earned the nickname "Manimal."  Faried plays with an abundance of energy and is a beast on the boards.  He averages 12.2 points and 9.7 boards a game and slowing him down will be key for the Celtics.   In their last meeting, Faried had 14 points and 12 rebounds.  Hopefully he is a bit tired coming off of playing in the Rising Stars game as well as the Dunk Contest over All Star weekend. 

Honorable Mention
Avery Bradley vs Ty Lawson
Lawson has quietly become one of the more underrated point guards in the league.  He led the Nuggets with 29 points and 9 assists and 6 rebounds in the last meeting.  Bradley needs to put is trademark defense to work to limit Lawson in this one.   


Keys to the Game

Defense - I may sound like a broken record, but Defense is the key to every game.   If they come into every game with the mindset to make defense a priority, they stand a good chance of winning every one.  When they slack off on defense, it affects every part of their game.  The offense feeds off the defense.   The Nuggets have won 31-1 in games where they score 100+ points.  They also rank first in the league in fast break points (19.4). The Celtics have got to play tough defense if they want to win this game. 

Rebound -   Since much of rebounding is effort and desire, the effort  that the Celtics show on the boards usually indicates how much the team really wants the game.  The Nuggets are a big team and are a very good rebounding team, ranking 2nd in the league with 45.4 rebounds per game and 1st in offensive rebounds with 13.8 per game.  The Celtics are 2nd to last, pulling down only 39.7 rebounds per game.  The Nuggets out-rebounded the Celtics 65-51 in their last meeting.  The Celtics have got to make an effort to crash the boards as a team and do better in this one. 

Be Aggressive The more aggressive team usually gets more calls  and taking the ball to the hoop usually ends in either a basket or a foul or a kick out to a wide open teammate.  The Celtics can't settle for jumpers, especially against a team like the Nuggets who will clean up the rebounds and turn them into a fast break.  They have to be aggressive in going to the hoop. They also must be aggressive in going after loose balls and rebounds.   

Bench Play
The Celtics got a boost from their bench in their 3 OT win over the Nuggets but their reserves have also been inconsistent and we never know what we will get from them on any given night.  In their first meeting, the Celtics reserves came through with 53 points but just 10 rebounds.  Jason Terry with 26 points and Jeff Green with 17 points were big off the bench.  The Nuggets bot 40 points and a whopping 33 rebounds from their reserves.  Their top performers off the bench were Miller with 15 points, Brewer with 13 points, and 16 rebounds for McGee. 

X-Factors
Thin Air
The Celtics will be playing at a higher altitude than they are used to, while the Nuggets are used to it.  This gives the Nuggets one of the best home court advantages in the league.   The Celtics arrived in Denver the day before so hopefully it won't affect the Celtics too much.

This game is going to be nearly impossible to win.

I think a lot of Denver's advantage at home comes from the altitude and the fact that visiting teams struggle to get their breath.

That's one of many reasons. They also have 17500/22000 fans, which only makes them run faster :( Altitude+natural advantage+MORE RUNNING = bad news for many teams

Since I graduated from H.S. in 1964, it was an honor to give you TP # 1964!

I have been in Denver, played tennis about 3 minutes at a time, so I know what you are talking about.   ;)

Lets hope the Celts are well rested, have plenty of oxygen handy, and can slow Denver's offense down.

Go Celts!  We can do this!

Well you can subtract one Denver fan from tonight's arena. I will be there(3rd Row) cheering our Team on. Hoping for big upset and a quiet arena when all is said and done.

Looking forward to seeing PP and KG in green still and hearing a mouthful for KG  ;D

I am beyond excited for tonight's game!

Go Celts

Ok, the Nuggs have mile-high HCA.  Oth, the C's should have closed out the last game in rin regulation.  And, while the Nuggs may well wish to get one back, the C's may want to show Mgt they should stick together.  A wash.

I rather post Collins.

I think Bass can do well making a 1 on 1 play face-up to the basket. Once he puts his back to the basket, nothing good will happen. But I'd rather just not have him put the ball on the floor.

Once more.

Brandon Bass is statistically worse at post-ups than EVERY player in the league. All of the hundreds of them. Including benchwarmers and guards. Just goes to show, HOW BAD is he.

why exactly do we need a trade?

Because Brandon Bass is still in the rotation.

And because we aren't a championship team.

Doc's starting with the same old nonsense again by pulling KG 4.5 minutes into a quarter.  He hadn't done that in about a month and a half.  Why is he starting again?  I despise this man.  Nobody coaches like he does.

not where he should be- on the bench!

when we need a high % shot in close he shoots a bomb from way out.

I don't get Doc's substitution pattern with KG.  He played him the first 4.5 minutes of the third, rested him the rest of the quarter, played him the first 10 minutes of the 4th, rested him for a minute and then played him the last 1.5 minutes.  He played for the 4th quarter.  Nobody in the NBA does this and for good reason.  Doc has lost his freaking mind.  A bland, conventional coach would be so much better than his stupid, "creative" man.

Well, I don't love Faried, but if he was a Celtic, I'd absolutely love his game and he would become a fan favorite. Same goes for Joakim Noah.

I love Jeff Green. He still doesn't get it 100%, but he's talented and he tries to help the team. First 20 point game also, albeit in a loss.

This loss is on the refs and Doc's rotation, and btw Denver is very good at home. I like coach Karl and I like how they play D, but we should've get away with the win.

Beat LA tomorrow and everything will be ok.
