Dec. 5 @ 76ers

Joel Embiid, who was just named the Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month, will take on Jamal Murray, who was just named the Western Conference player of the Month.

The Sixers are weird, they hang around with teams but almost never close them out. Wow, that sounds just like Denver. The Nuggets should win this game but I could see this be a trap game for them, the guards will need to step up big here for the Nuggets. The Nuggets will also need to learn to close out games better because they may have to close this one out.

As they travel to the historical city of Philadelphia, they should be for the most part healthy. Being at full strength should help Denver to dominate the 76ers, and hopefully this game will not even be close.

The prediction is Denver wins in a landslide because their guards will have a monster game against the inferior Liberty City guards.
