The Denver Nuggets won’t have to worry about Mehmet Okur anymore
Utah Jazz starting center Mehmet Okur ruptured his Achilles tendon in the opening game of this series and he is done for the season. With Okur out of the picture the Jazz will likely be playing a smaller lineup with both Carlos Boozer and Paul Millsap on the court at the same time. The Nuggets won’t have to worry about covering Okur pulling a big man away from the basket because of his outside shooting prowess. The Jazz will likely try to run even more than they did in game #1 trying to make the Nuggets beat them in a track meet.
